Guilford. “A lot of towns are looking to create that kind of housing where residents are OK with it,” which is usually the town center, he said. Commission member Diane Visconti asked Fink to provide an example of a town comparable to Cheshire that has had success with inclusionary zoning. Fink cited Old Saybrook, which created one such zone and is adding a second. Fink said the key to implementing inclusionary zoning is having a “townwide conversation” about it beforehand. He said many residents misunderstand the kind of people it is intended to serve. “People think it’s drug dealers and gang members,” instead
of hard-working professionals of moderate means, he said. Fink told commission members to “take as long as you need to” as they talk with residents and consider whether inclusionary zoning is right for Cheshire. “The process is now asking you to be proactive and take a look at what people want,” as well as what the town needs, he said.
