Those initiatives may include allowing duplex through multifamily building by right, revising or dropping off-street parking requirements, changing lot size, floor area, set-back and height rules, incentives for denser development, zoning overlays for mixed-income housing, streamlined regulation and permitting, allowing accessory dwelling units, local tax incentives or public financing, streamlined environmental regulation, dropping unnecessary manufactured or cooperative housing rules, and limiting the effect of energy and water standards on housing costs.

The application must show what new housing went up. It covers the three years up to the day the form is sent in. It can say who the homes serve and whether housing got better and cheaper.
The application must also fit the town's own plan. That plan is called a consolidated plan. It is filed with the housing agency already.
