The Case for More Housing: Shaping Sustainable Communities
Our neighborhoods are evolving, and the choices we make today about housing and development will define our community’s future. By embracing forward-thinking policies and higher-density housing, we can address the housing crisis, reduce commutes, and create vibrant, sustainable communities. Imagine neighborhoods where homes are closer to jobs and schools, businesses flourish with increased foot traffic, and public spaces become greener and more accessible. Let’s move beyond division and commit to a shared vision of inclusivity and progress—one that benefits everyone.

I don't think I've posted this yet. Good paper out last year comparing by-right and discretionary processes on their ability to permit affordable housing quickly and reliably https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/01944363.2022.2106291 #housing #zoningreform #processimprovement
