Workforce Housing

A new study says that New Hampshire is losing jobs because of the high cost of housing. Some are pushing for more affordable homes, while others don't want new development in their back yards. We'll look at the many sides to the difficult issue of workforce housing. Laura's guests are Jim Pitts, Town Manager for Bow and President of the NH Municipal Management Association, Dick Anagnost, Chairman of The Workforce Opportunity Council and President and CEO of Anagnost Companies, and Don Bealko, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Public Policy Alliance for Housing and VP of Marketing and Business Development for RIVCO. We'll also hear from Dave Haney, a Representative for the NH Workforce Housing Council (who put out a recent report) and a Regional Director at the Bank of America's Community Banking Group.
