What is Missing Middle Housing? Presentation to the Silver Spring community from Opticos Design

Montgomery Planning will hold a virtual event in support of the Silver Spring Downtown & Adjacent Communities Plan on Missing Middle Housing.

Missing Middle Housing is a range of smaller units in multiunit or clustered housing types, compatible in form and scale with single-family homes that help meet the growing demand for walkable urban living, respond to shifting household demographics, and meet the need for more housing choices at different price points.

This event will feature Tony Perez from Opticos Design who is a Missing Middle Housing expert in working with communities to establish and translate policy direction into clear and implementable development standards. Tony is a leader in advancing the practice of Form-Based Coding, and has authored or co-authored over 25 zoning codes and peer-reviewed or contributed to over 20 others, ranging in scale from small to citywide.

RSVPs are required.
