review and edits as the team worked through over 400 pages of detailed ordinance language,
incorporating feedback from City staff, the community, the Planning Commission, and City
Council." Yes. #zoningreform is hard work.

If there is no new “luxury” housing to absorb them, they will simply outbid less affluent residents for the housing units that already exist. Thus the less new housing that gets built, the faster rents will rise in a booming city.” #housing #zoning #zoningreform #luxury

I have heard many arguments recently that no land uses should be permitted "by right" and I think San Francisco is a helpful illustration of how that works in practice https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/openforum/article/sf-housing-development-red-tape-17815725.php #housing #sanfrancisco #zoning #zoningreform #policy #redtape

https://www.businessinsider.com/america-lower-rents-home-prices-build-more-houses-new-zealand-2023-8 “To make housing more abundant and affordable…we need to upzone many neighborhoods — legalize the construction of denser, taller housing like duplexes, triplexes, and townhomes. Upzoning won't cause the price of existing housing to suddenly tumble, but it will slow the growth of housing costs by meeting demand. It's a necessary, but not sufficient first step in solving the affordability crisis.” #housing #zoningreform #zoning #newzealand #theletterz
