The plan has three main components: removing barriers to construction, boosting affordable home production and reducing other housing-related costs. As a remedy, CAP is suggesting reformation to local zoning laws, incentives to local jurisdictions to approve more housing, and expansion of modular and manufactured housing. The federal government can't make you change your zoning requirements, so we designed a program to create strong incentives and disincentives to get more and more communities to undertake the actions to make it faster to build, Negron said.
