Eileen — This subject has been covered on this list in the past. You might check the archives and see what you find. In summary … cohousing is plain ol’ condo development. Legally and financially we’re just a condo or co-op. No particular zoning is required. We fit right in. Some communities have had cohousing zoning created in their municipality but it’s really not necessary unless there is no condo/co-op, cluster or multi-family zoning in the municipality. Creating cohousing has enough challenges w/out having to create a zoning statute. Personally, I don’t want cohousing to raise any eyebrows or questions. The more different or unique we are the harder it is for the powers that be to wrap their heads around what we’re doing. So when I talk w/ government or financial people … we’re just a condo. Good luck in your quest to build cohousing, Eileen. It’s an exciting adventure. Let us know your progress.
