just had a CU student tell me that every member of their house is saving $3,000 this year because of occupancy changes and the work of Bedrooms Are For People

so proud of the work we've done!

@ryanschuchard @Parking_Reform @T4America @americawalks @BikeLeague @sweep_org @StrongTowns @TransAlt @StreetsblogUSA @mateosfo @schmangee @JessieSingerNYC VMT analysis is required by CA state law for all CEQA projects but you can still use level of service analysis. Performance zoning might be a stand in for this - Portland OR, Miami, and Bucks county PA come to mind.

@ryanschuchard I didn’t take any photos but that was a great kickoff and thank you for sharing your positive and grounded vision for the future of this community.

[adrian m fine @adrianfine]

@ryanschuchard Love your focus on housing and transportation options. I think that’s the most important thing in high-amenity and high-cost cities nowadays.. and more choices is 100% American 🇺🇸

[adrian m fine @adrianfine]

@MBforBoulder Glad you’re following strong towns! Personally I’m interested in high quality and stable services. Low density in high amenity and job rich communities does not make sense.

[adrian m fine @adrianfine]

@bouldercolorado Respectfully, the people who are affected the most are the ones who do or don’t get to live together.

[Bedrooms Are For People @BoulderBedrooms]

BIG NEWS! This week the Colorado State House will vote on a statewide housing bill that would prohibit cities (like Boulder!) from setting occupancy limits based on relationship status!

Ask your reps to get this done! Here's how: https://t.co/i0e95YcXdn

[adrian m fine @adrianfine]

@cafedujord @calisurf Doesn’t rotate. More like hunger games / popularity contest within the confines of the brown act.

Cities are perfectly capable of creating local solutions to the housing crisis, but when they don’t or won’t, then that is precisely when the state should step in and create regional standards.

NEW: Colorado governor, Democrats unveil major effort to boost housing by directing local land-use policy. Here’s what it would do. https://t.co/1FSZuvuSI3

If you want to solve the housing crisis, occupancy reform and allowing a few more people to live together in the same home is one way to do that.

[Aaron Brockett @AaronBrockett12]

Appreciate the @dailycamera's support for occupancy limit reform! From @GJVGarrison: "allowing for a new roommate here or there would provide tenants across the city with more options, while also helping some renters alleviate the burdensome cost of rent." https://t.co/XL3dd3jT7G

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

But connecting regions or cities doesn't necessitate building highways *through* the cities.

And designing a new city around an existing highway is one thing; redesigning an old city around a new highway is something else entirely.

So why did it happen?

[Jeremiah Johnson 🌐 @JeremiahDJohns]

There are cities that build lots of housing and where housing is cheap (green).

There are cities that build little housing and are expensive (purple).

There is no city in America that builds lots of housing and is also expensive. That giant red box is completely empty.
