TTCF’s Housing Work: The Present and Future

Unlocking Potential: Recent ADU Research and Its Impact on Policy and Development

TTCF is hosting an Achievable Housing Lunch and Learn series from September 2024 to June 2025. The first event, Unlocking Potential: Recent ADU Research & Its Impact on Policy and Development, hosted 60-plus local leaders and community members. With rising construction costs and little state support for middle-income housing, finding sustainable, achievable housing solutions is crucial. One promising approach is Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)—small homes built on existing properties. Speakers Erin Casey, President/CEO of Tahoe Housing Hub, and Dr. Thomas J. Powell, Senior Advisor for Brehon Strategies, engaged in an informative discussion based on their respective ADU research, and emphasized the need for better financing options and scaled incentives to make ADUs more attainable.

How can we maintain the character of the town, the area, the region that we all love, while promoting sustainable development? ADUs can use resources far more efficiently than building new subdivisions. They can impact both low- and middle-income families, and professionals and help people stay in their homes. Research from AARP shows that ADUs even allow people to age in place.
