Work underway to increase Amherst’s housing stock GAZETTE FILE PHOTO Published: 2/23/2021 12:12:29 PM AMHERST — Initial proposals to make several changes to town zoning, with a focus on ways to add housing for people of all income levels, are expected to be brought forward for review in the coming weeks. Planning Director Christine Brestrup and Building Commissioner Rob Morra informed the Town Council on Monday that the first phase of draft zoning adjustments, prioritized by the Town Council earlier this year to promote what is known as infill development, should be ready for the Community Resources Committee’s March 9 meeting. That will begin a process of hearings and gathering input from the community, setting the stage for the Town Council to vote on the zoning changes, likely in June.
