Important topic “How Light-Touch Density and Live Local Urban Villages Can Supply Housing Abundance to Connecticut” will be
covered by Edward J. Pinto, a senior fellow and codirector of the
AEI Housing Center at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). A focus of
Mr. Pinto’s work continues to be the role of federal housing policy in the
2008 mortgage and financial crisis and how federal housing policy
continues to create unwelcome distortions in the housing markets. More
recently his research has focused on using light touch density to increase
the supply of naturally affordable and inclusionary housing.
