Local government plays a critical role in shaping the quality of life for its residents, by delivering everything from lifeline goods and services, to schools and public safety, to safe and affordable housing. George W. “Mac” McCarthy, President and CEO of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, will discuss innovative local efforts where local governments stepped up to help preserve and produce affordable housing. Drawing from his extensive experience working across the nation, McCarthy will share stories that demonstrate how governments have addressed systemic inefficiencies that stall housing development and preservation through new public-private-civic coalitions that produce real results.

El gobierno local desempeña un papel fundamental en la formación de la calidad de vida de sus residentes, al proporcionar todo desde bienes y servicios vitales, hasta escuelas y seguridad pública, hasta viviendas seguras y asequibles. Dr. George W. "Mac" McCarthy, presidente y director ejecutivo del Instituto Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, hablará sobre los esfuerzos locales innovadores en los que los gobiernos locales dieron un paso adelante para ayudar a preservar y producir viviendas asequibles. Basándose en su amplia experiencia trabajando en todo el país, McCarthy compartirá historias que demuestran cómo los gobiernos han abordado las ineficiencias sistémicas que estancan el desarrollo y la preservación de la vivienda a través de nuevas coaliciones públicas-privadas-cívicas que producen resultados reales.
