Taxing housing to build housing incentivizes sprawl to surrounding areas.
Tax the rich instead and build social housing.

Seriously not sure what the heck Magnolia Community Council thinks the solution to Diversity, Lower Cost Housing, New Neighbors and Urban Forests is except to build missing middle instead of lot line to lot line McMansions. #Seattle #SeattleCompPlan #MissingMiddle

My favorite part of civic engagement events, like the #SeattleCompPlan review in Loyal Heights, is learning a new derogatory nickname for the type of modern skinny townhouse I live in. Tonight, itโs โBallard Boxes.โ (I embrace all the nicknames, telling my neighbors Iโve heard worse.)
At the community comp plan meeting in loyal heights, 100 people! ๐ฒ

The city released its first phase report for the Comprehensive Plan today, which is supposed to decide city housing for the next 10 years.
People showed up in record numbers to tell the city that we wanted and needed more density everywhere.

Unfortunately, the city preemptively decided that the most housing it will even try to entertain is 80,000-120,000 units over the upcoming years.
I know these maps are nowhere near final, but, you know, as a resident of Crown Hill/Greenwood I was like, "Why does the Greenwood-Phinney UV look like a stingray?" #SeattleCompPlan #OneSeattle
Why did the boundaries of the Greenwood-Phinney UV only get expanded from the center of Greenwood and the southern part which is the more affluent Phinney Ridge not? #OneSeattle #SeattleCompPlan
Of course the first thing I did instead of reading the report is look for the GIS data in ArcGIS Online and download it. I guess I should read next. #OneSeattle #SeattleCompPlan #GIS

Go with a buddy, schedule time for a debrief after or the next day online, write a couple of thoughts down before you attend the meeting so you have some talking points in case you get nervous or overwhelmed at the meeting.
