Habitat for Humanity of Cape Cod has built over 150 affordable homes in all 15 towns on Cape Cod.
In 2020, we completed two homes in Wellfleet, one home in Mashpee, and seven homes in Brewster, and we began volunteer construction on one home in Orleans and two homes in Mashpee.
In 2021, we will begin six homes on Murray Lane in Harwich and six homes in phase one of a 10 home build on Willett Way in Falmouth.
On the Drawing Board
Route 6, Truro
181 Route 6, 3 homes – Our 40B Comprehensive Permit approval by the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA), was appealed by a neighbor. A trial was held in November 2019, with a decision for the plaintiff in March 2020. We are back to the “drawing board” and hope to have an update in spring 2021.
Upcoming Projects
Old Kings Highway, Wellfleet
Our 40B Comprehensive Permit for four homes which was approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) in July 2019 has been appealed by several abutters. We are working our way through the judicial process. We do not expect to have a judgment until Summer 2021. We will provide more information as soon as we are able.
George Ryder Road South, Chatham
We closed on the land for this project in March 2021. We plan to begin infrastructure work on this project beginning in the late fall 2021 with a wall raising in 2022.
Sandwich
We have submitted our applications for the scatter site project of 3 homes at 1 Nauset Street (1 home) and 167 Cotuit Road (2 homes) to the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA). We hope to begin construction on this project in 2022.
Red Top Road, Brewster
We presented our LIP application to the Brewster Selectboard for signature on April 5th, 2021. Following its signature we will submit to the Department of Housing & Community Development. Following DHCD approval, we will head to ZBA for permitting. It is our hope to start construction in 2022.
