Deregulation of Housing
Posted on 2/15/21 at 6:11 pm
Posted on 2/15/21 at 6:11 pm
Housing is increasingly becoming more expensive in cities. Most of it is due to the lack of supply to meet the demand so development needs to be encouraged to help bring prices down.
Unfortunately, you have the NIMBYs (Not In My BackYard). People who refuse to allow development to happen because it would ruin the "character" of their neighborhoods and/or worried about gentrification. Typically suburban folk uncomfortable with change.
Fortunately, there are people pursuing to counter these NIMBYs and they call themselves YIMBYs (Yes In MY BackYard). Individuals perusing pro-development policy to meet the demand for housing in the world's cities.
Now, there are strong pursuits to get rid of single-family zoning, height limits, ADU codes, parking minimums, etc. to encourage dense free-market development.
Recently, there is a proposal in Sacramento, California being seriously considered to limit single-family zoning and parking minimums to allow further development in the state capital.

Excellent news
I hope they get rid of gated 'communities' and every other enclave liberals run to escape the minorities they profess to love

Look...poors are already given such preference that folks in metro areas can’t even consider sending their kids to the public schools.
How much more should we penalize the middle class?

NIMBYism extends to both sides of the political spectrum. You have an unholy coalition of anti-development liberals and conservatives.

Sounds a lot like what Houston has with its lack of zoning. Sure there are some deed restricted neighborhoods, but in the majority of the city you can do whatever the hell you want. I can’t say it’s helping housing prices though.

Ever stop and wonder why this could be? Think past the first dog whistle you’re trained to respond with... and use some deep reflection here

Relatively recently, San Diego decided to pass Measure E in the November 3rd, 2020 election. This is a ballot measure that prevents development in the Midway district to be under a 30-foot height limit.

In 2019, Boise, Idaho relaxed regulations on accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in response to the fast population growth going on in the city. Now, ADUs are seeing popularity increase.

Missoula legislator’s bill adds duplexes, triplexes to single-family zones
Even Montana faces some growing pains. There is a proposed bill to limit single-family zoning considerably in the state by allowing the construction on duplexes and triplexes. Unfortunately, such a bill is not getting a supportive response from both political parties.

HELENA — Median home prices in Montana increased by 25% from 2014 to 2019, according to data from the Montana Department of Labor and Industry, and some counties saw even more growth.
Gallatin County’s median home price jumped by nearly 64% to $424,500 dollars.
On Tuesday at the Montana Legislature, a coalition of proponents from differing backgrounds lined up to support a bill they say would increase housing supply to meet out-of-control demand, thus reducing prices.

I see this out were I am living. We live out in West Mobile. Outside the city limits, but we have the best schools in our district.
They built a Section 8 neighborhood of HUD houses and then a huge Section 8 Complex next to the HS. Both with 2/10ths of a mile. Now they have just secured another piece of land around the corner for another set of apartments.
What gets me is this is already the 2nd largest HS in the State. This new developments are squarely in so if they ever did move lines it would not come from these places.

Fantastic. We just passed a resolution in my zip code (37069) that due to density any new development zoning requires 5 acres per dwelling.
I hope every liberal city in America keeps deregulating single family housing. My property value will quadruple based on my area doing the opposite.

In NC, a house goes up in weeks. In Calif, it can take years due to bureaucracy, regulations and government sloth.

fricking Boomers.
If the fed gov is going to control everything, I’d rather birth licenses and mandatory maximum family size rather than unlimited parentless children paid for by the government and moved into my neighborhood.
Let’s get the dystopian nightmare started.

As a Californian, my experience is that NIMBY suburbanites advocated for said bureaucracy, regulations, and government sloth. Development is terrifying for much of the American suburbanite population, especially in California.
