A collection of studies published in the latest issue of Cityscape confirms that zoning and other land-use reforms increase the supply of housing.
Not only the ability to build more housing, but also denser mixes-use zoning. You saw that during the pandemic where large financial and business districts shut down and haven’t fully recovered vs mixed-use areas.
“The denser development also increased the taxable value of the land from $319 million to $1.91 billion, which made more resources available for municipal goods and services such as police, fire protection, infrastructure, and parks.”
Conservatives when you can hire more Law Enforcement: THIS IS COMMUNISM
The older I get, the more I realize conservatives are just obstructionists. They don’t have any conservative solutions to society’s problems and will obstruct any liberal solution on principle.
Also, it really is laughable that conservatives actually believe the anyone to the left of them is secretly trying to install a communist dictatorship lol. There is never any real evidence for it, but somehow it’s a fact to those people.
And reactionaries
