Evidence from Minneapolis shows that zoning reform increases housing supply and slows rent growth, homelessness, and displacement of black residents. But does it reduce racial segregation?
I'm sorry, but you can't just cavalierly slip over the issue of parking space reduction. Unless there is absolutely positively strong mass transit, these new multi-family dwellings end up causing MORE problems in the neighborhood because of limited street parking. This can turn public sentiment AGAINST such important zoning changes. It shows how intertwined the problems facing cities are--without better transit options, limiting parking spaces sparks different problems.
This helps us in Lexington, Kentucky. Thank you. We are sharing it widely.

This is such good news. The upzoning along with other zoning reform in California will pay off! Soon we hope!
