Dennis Affordable Housing Trust names Noreen Browne Vice Chair and backs Seasonal Communities designation. Co-Chairs Robert Samoluk and Kayla Hilts, with Treasurer David Winther, were unanimously approved to their roles in the annual reorganization. The Trust voted 4-1 to endorse joining the state program, which offers housing preference for essential municipal workers like police and fire personnel and requires all housing provisions be "by right" or by Special Permit across all but industrial districts.
The Trust also unanimously approved a revised $10,000 feasibility study from Tighe & Bond for the Bob Crowell Road project examining homeownership and mixed-tenure configurations. Town Planner Paul Foley reported the $40,000 state-funded Housing Production Plan update is under way with four firms considered and December 2026 approval deadline.
