As a recipient of State Housing Initiative Partnership funds Jackson County established an affordable housing advisory committee in August of 2008 as required by the Florida Statute section 420.9076. The Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) is responsible for reviewing policies, land development regulations, the Comprehensive Plan Policy, and other aspects of the County’s policies and procedures that affect the cost of housing. In addition, the AHAC is responsible for making recommendations to encourage affordable housing.

The AHAC is required to annually submit an incentive report that includes recommendations by the committee, as well as comments on the implementation of incentives in at least eleven distinct areas.  This public hearing is for comments on the final report which will be presented to the Jackson County Board of County Commissioners at the upcoming December 8, 2020 meeting.
