Maryland housing policy and affordability discussions

Overview

Maryland local officials and housing leaders are increasingly focusing on addressing the state’s housing crisis through policy discussions and legislative engagement.

During the Maryland Association of Counties Summer Conference, officials addressed critical issues including infrastructure, state-local collaboration, and the economic complexities of housing finance, such as construction costs and interest rates.

Following these discussions, state and local leaders scheduled further forums for early September to examine housing policy. These include a program in Easton featuring Secretary of Housing and Community Development Jake Day to discuss efforts to expand affordable housing, and a forum in Baltimore to analyze the impact of federal legislation, specifically the ‘federal ROAD to Housing Act’, on local housing supply and affordability.
