Introduction The Towns of Yarmouth, Dennis, Orleans, Barnstable, and Falmouth (the “Towns”) are committed to increasing affordable housing rental opportunities for low-to-moderate income households. The Towns have developed a variety of innovative methods to encourage the creation and retention of scattered site rental housing, including by-law provisions for accessory apartments, shop-top housing, and various other zoning and housing incentives. And while committed to ensuring fair and open access to these affordable housing opportunities, the Towns understand that marketing efforts can sometimes be difficult and costly for smaller rental projects. In an effort to further facilitate affordable housing efforts, to ease the financial burden on developers, to ensure that marketing is performed efficiently and effectively by an experienced and qualified entity, and to make the application process for the low-to-moderate income households more streamlined, the following Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan (AFHMP) has been created. This Plan will result in a lotteried Ready Renter list serving affordable housing developments and affordable accessory apartments in the Towns, their residents, and the residents of Barnstable County and the Commonwealth.

  • Abolitionism and Civil Rights in Boston
    Ezra’s Archives | 19 Historical Memory in the Hub: Abolitionism and Civil Rights in Boston Ethan McCoy Since its origins as a Puritan colony in the 17th century, the city of Boston has consistently found itself at the heart of American history. After earning itself the moniker of the “Cradle of Liberty” in the American Revolution, Boston in the antebellum years emerged as the nucleus of a fierce abolitionist movement whose advocacy for ending slavery on moral grounds challenged the status quo and sent ripples throughout the country. More than a century later at the peak of the civil rights movement, the push for racial equality again challenged the nation at its core, leading to tumultuous years of struggle on the way to monumental gains. In Boston, that tumult reached a boiling point with the 1970s busing crisis, as court-ordered busing of students to desegregate public schools elevated racial tensions to an all time high in the city. As Bostonians were engulfed in both a nationwide and local struggle, the city's history as the heart of abolitionism was not a time lost in public memory. Articles in The Boston Globe and the African-American newspaper The Bay State Banner during the 1960s and 70s, and Boston’s antebellum past, including its first clash over school segregation in the mid-19th century, were moments that influenced the population’s outlook on the tensions of the time. Though a century apart, these two seminal periods in Boston’s history were not separate from one another in public dialogue. As the country and Boston itself reached a boiling point, the city’s abolitionist past was a constant theme in how Bostonians faced the civil rights movement, their own racial tensions, and their city’s role in the pursuit of racial equality throughout the nation’s history.
