At our 2023 Premier Revitalization Conference, hosted in Scranton June 25th-28th, attention will be on the ever changing but incredibly impactful issues related to housing needs and the untapped potential and opportunities in our own communities. The title of PDC’s 2023 conference in Scranton is Making Space: Housing for a Vibrant Community. We’ll be exploring a variety of approaches and tactics that communities are incorporating into their housing related strategies, those of interesting and non-traditional partnerships, outside-the-box funding initiatives, creative homeowner and maintenance incentives, and inventive residential recruitment strategies.
In an era where the quantity and quality of housing options in our core communities has become increasingly important, Main Street and Elm Street programs are uniquely positioned to serve as a powerful tool in addressing community housing issues. Small-scale development, adaptive reuse, and upper floor activation projects can all play a crucial role in helping communities solve a range of issues, from not only residential but also expanded commercial space. Join us as we explore new approaches to identify housing opportunities, empower developers, nonprofits, and local governments in understanding financing mechanisms, and so much more for a vision of housing throughout the commonwealth that closes the gap between current housing realities and a brighter future.
