SUMMARY:MHCCV Symposium 2020
DESCRIPTION:Some Assembly Required\n\n\n\nA Virtual Conference on Virginia’s Manufactured Home Communities\n\n\n\nOver 350\,000 of our fellow Virginians live in manufactured homes. Many of those homes are the building blocks of manufactured home communities—otherwise known as mobile home parks. They are found throughout the state\, in our cities\, suburbs\, and rural neighborhoods. Although these communities provide affordable and accessible housing options\, they rarely give residents the security\, agency\, and financial independence enjoyed by other homeowners. In short\, the deck is stacked against them. \n\n\n\nFortunately\, things are changing. Communities are transitioning to nonprofit and resident ownership. Innovations in manufactured home design and construction are leading to high-quality\, affordable units. Policymakers are finding ways to make the system work for\, not against\, park residents. And much of this progress is happening right here in Virginia. \n\n\n\nJoin MHCCV and our partners for a week-long virtual conference this October to explore these changes and learn how you can get involved. Across eight different sessions\, you’ll have the opportunity to hear from over 20 experts\, practitioners\, leaders\, and innovators who are collectively making life better for our neighbors living in manufactured home communities. \n\n\n\nAll sessions will be held virtually. You can click here to learn more about the sessions and speakers\, or register below. \n\n\n\nTickets are $25 and will get you into all eight sessions: the opening keynote on Monday afternoon\, morning and afternoon sessions on Tuesday\, Wednesday\, and Thursday\, and the closing session on Friday morning.

SUMMARY:#Lead2020: Lead-Safe Homes\, Healthy Families (Webinar #4)
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to a grant from the National Center for Healthy Housing\, the Virginia Poverty Law Center and the Richmond City Health District will be conducting a webinar series on lead contamination in homes in August and September\, with the assistance of HousingForward Virginia. The goal of these events is to raise awareness about the dangers of lead contamination in homes across the Commonwealth. \nThe organizers hope to build a coalition that can work together towards fully abating lead from our housing stock and water systems. Panelists will discuss the long-term health impacts\, current policy and initiatives to address the problem\, and the necessity for additional legal\, financial\, and structural tools to ensure that lead poisoning becomes a thing of the past. \nWebinar #1: Plumbum Persists: Housing and Public Health \nWednesday\, August 19th\, 2pm-3:30pm \nWebinar #2: Paint\, Pipes\, and Poison: Pervasiveness and Proper Process \nWednesday\, August 26th\, 2pm-3:30pm \nWebinar #3: Legally Speaking: Understanding the Legal Landscape of Lead \nWednesday\, September 2nd\, 2pm-3:30pm \nWebinar #4: Lead-Free Future: A Call to Action \nWednesday\, September 9th\, 2pm-3:30pm \nLead-Free Future: A Call to Action\nIn our final webinar session\, we invite you to learn about best practices across the nation in lead hazard control and what needs to change here in Virginia to fully eradicate lead from our homes. On Wednesday\, September 9th from 2:00-3:30pm\, we will close our session by looking towards the future. \nLead poisoning is preventable\, but the challenges lie in finding and measuring the presence of lead. As we have learned in previous sessions\, the costs of identification and removal are expensive. But the impacts on health and well-being are even more costly. Experts will discuss the long-term benefits of effective lead hazard control and what new tools are available to us.  \nWhile effective tools are necessary\, a strong legal foundation is crucial to ensuring that homes are healthy. With new legislation and funding to address a preventable problem\, we might finally be able to ensure that Virginia is lead free. \nPlease join us as we discuss how we can stop home lead poisoning in Virginia and how you can be a part of this initiative. \nClick here to register via Zoom.\nSpeaker Bios\n \nJonathan Wilson is the Deputy Director and CFO of the National Center for Healthy Housing.

Professional lead-based paint removal could cost anywhere from $9\,600 to $30\,000 for a 1\,200- to 2\,000 square ft. home. For small rental property owners and low-income households\, these costs are monumental when incomes are largely dedicated to basic living expenses.  \nBut without sufficient knowledge\, adequate equipment\, and Federal certification\, improper removal could cause more harm than good. The cost of doing nothing could lead to long-term health impacts\, especially for young children. \nIn this session\, experts will discuss how lead is identified in homes and the process for doing so. You will learn the importance of proper removal and how localities can leverage resources to support lead-safe homes for children. \nWatch Now:\n \nDownload All Slides \n  \nSpeaker Bios\nScott Slagley is an Environmental Health Specialist and licensed Lead Risk Assessor at the Richmond City Health District. He performs lead risk assessments to investigate childhood lead poisoning cases in the City of Richmond and nearby jurisdictions in central Virginia. \nTrisha Henshaw has over two decades of regulatory experience with the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation.  Trisha has been Executive Director of the Board for Asbestos\, Lead\, and Home Inspectors since 2012.  Her responsibilities include administering the licensing program for individuals and businesses performing lead-based paint abatement activities in Virginia. \nDwayne Roadcap\, REHS\, LPSS\, AOSE\, has been the Director of the Office of Drinking Water since November 25\, 2017.  Dwayne has over 25 years of experience with environmental programs in Virginia.  Dwayne has presented at several national and state conferences regarding the Virginia Department of Health’s environmental health programs\, including the National Onsite Wastewater Recycling Association and the National Environmental Health Association. \nKatie Kennedy is the Program Manager for Lead Safe Roanoke.

SUMMARY:ADUs: The Next Little Thing in Affordable Housing (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:In Microblog #116\, we showcased the Austin Alley Flat Initiative’s recent progress in expanding accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in Texas’s hippest city. To help rub off some of that magic here in Virginia\, we’re hosting a webinar to dig into ADU design and policy\, with a focus on capacity building and implementation. Several communities in Virginia currently have ADU programs in place\, but interest and production has been modest so far. \nConfirmed participants include Michelle Winters\, Executive Director at the Alliance for Housing Solutions and HousingForward Virginia board member; Max Pastore\, an urban designer at Rhodeside & Harwell; Dr. Christina Stacy at the Urban Institute; and Nicole Joslin at Austin’s Community Powered Workshop\, an organization that helped launch the Alley Flat Initiative. \nThis webinar will be hosted on Zoom. Please click here to register. \nPanelist Bios\nMichelle Winters\nExecutive Director\, Alliance for Housing Solutions \nMichelle Winters is Executive Director of the Alliance for Housing Solutions\, a nonprofit organization that is working to increase the supply of affordable housing in Arlington and Northern Virginia through public education\, policy development\, advocacy and innovation. Prior to joining AHS\, Michelle worked for two decades at the national level on housing finance\, policy\, and capacity building initiatives\, most recently as Senior Visiting Fellow for Housing at the Urban Land Institute. \nShe previously worked at NeighborWorks America\, LISC\, and Fannie Mae and started off her career in housing at the Urban Institute. Michelle has served as a member and chair of Arlington’s Housing Commission and currently serves on the boards of HousingForward Virginia and the Lee Highway Alliance and as co-chair of ULI Washington’s Housing Initiative Council. She received her BA in Urban Affairs from Virginia Tech and her Master in City Planning from MIT. \nMax Pastore\nSenior Associate Urban Planner & Urban Designer\, RHI \nMax Pastore is a Senior Associate Urban Designer and Urban Planner at RHI\, a landscape architecture\, urban design\, and urban planning firm based in Old Town Alexandria.

SUMMARY:Land Banking in the Commonwealth (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this free webinar. This will be the primer you need to get started with a land bank in Virginia. We’ll discuss what land banks are\, what they do\, and how your community can use them.\n\nIn 2016\, the Virginia General Assembly passed the Land Bank Entities Act\, which authorizes localities to form a land bank either by creating a local government authority\, forming a nonprofit corporation\, or selecting an existing nonprofit. Currently\, there are at least six operating in the Commonwealth\, and about 170 operating nationwide. Land banks provide pathways for communities to return vacant properties to use. To learn more\, RSVP to the webinar below.
