Magnotta said that there are three building blocks to get housing across the finish line: “courage, cash and community. The funding announced by our governor today allows for bold, courageous action throughout our state, so together we can build more housing for the children and our communities.”

The governor’s plan includes the creation of a new $97 million HousingWorks program, which she said will “leverage existing programs and an infusion of new funding to create new flexible tools for developing affordable housing and preserving and rehabilitating existing stock.”

Magnotta said that this level of housing funding is urgently needed “I say to anyone who will listen that the Cape and Islands are the canary in the coal mine,” she said. “The rest of the state should take notice of what’s happening here because it can happen anywhere. We need more housing inventory, and we need to diversify our housing stock. I know we can do better.”

Ed Augustus, Secretary of the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities, said the capital investment plan is “an opportunity to match our words with action. As the governor highlighted, housing is at the top of the list. It’s clear we need more tools in our toolbox to spur housing development, and I'm thrilled that within the new Housing Works program, we include $25 million in new funding to support housing infrastructure.”

Others who attended the event at Housing Assistance included: Secretary for Administration and Finance
