With the passage of the $95 million Affordable Housing Bond in November 2019, voters made a commitment to making affordable housing a priority for all city residents. That money is being combined with other local and federal funding for a total of $160 million to support the City’s Affordable Housing Investment Program. In this new City Life episode, Host Beverly B. Thompson talks with Director Reginald Johnson of the City of Durham’s Community Development Department and Chief Executive Officer Anthony Scott of the Durham Housing Authority about what the goals of the program are, how they’re being achieved, and how Durham’s public housing fits into the scope of the program’s funding.
