City of Hutchinson

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Housing should work for everyone, but for many, it feels like the system is rigged. Why has housing become so unaffordable, and what can we do about it?

Join the City of Hutchinson for a book discussion on Escaping the Housing Trap: The Strong Towns Response to the Housing Crisis. This eye-opening book dives into the root causes of the housing crisis and explores how local communities can fight back.

We’ll discuss:

Why housing has shifted from shelter to an investment.

How policies like zoning and NIMBYism impact affordability.

Local solutions that can bring balance back to our neighborhoods.

How YOU can help address the housing crisis.

Whether you rent, own, or just care about the future of housing, this discussion is for you. Let’s talk about how we can build stronger, fairer communities.

Discussions will be held at City Hall on the following dates:

Jan. 7, 2025, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Jan. 8, 2025, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Sign up by December 18 to reserve your free copy of the book. Spaces are limited.
