The City of Boston is considering time-limited tax relief for some previously approved development projects that will create a significant amount of housing, income-restricted units, and climate resilient development. Staff will go over the tax relief proposal and answer any questions. No changes to the project are being proposed at this time. Please review the approved project proposal and submit comments regarding the possibility of financial relief here.

A comment period is now open through October 14 for the public to provide feedback on relieving a portion of this project’s taxes to make this project financially viable and able to start construction.
