Office-to-Affordable-Housing Task Force

The Office-to-Affordable Housing Task force has been established by D.C. Law 22-103 to determine the challenges and opportunities of transitioning existing vacant commercial office space to affordable residential housing units to help address the District of Columbia’s affordable housing challenge.

The Task Force will begin its monthly convenings in October 2018. After four months, the Task Force will produce a report to the Mayor and the Council, which will address the value of transitioning vacant commercial office space to affordable housing. The report will also include recommendations as to any potential legislative, regulatory, zoning, or policy changes that could promote this transition, and any costs to the District and property owners associated with the transition. The Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development chairs the Task Force, which includes property owners, nonprofits, low-income renters, architects, engineers and public officials, among others. The Coalition for Nonprofit Housing and Economic Development will write the report summarizing the Task Force’s findings and recommendations.
