Chicago affordable housing program has failed, report finds

Chicago’s affordable housing program has failed. That was the takeaway from a citywide task force formed by Mayor Lori Lightfoot, which determined that an ordinance requiring developers to build more housing for low- and moderate-income households has created just 1,000 homes in 13 years, according to WTTW News. Meanwhile, the city’s affordable housing shortfall has surged to nearly 120,000 homes. The ordinance requires developers to designate between 10 and 20 percent of new residential units
