Hi Matt,
Urbanist-related question here. We clearly have a housing shortage issue in this country. How would you propose that zoning and NIMBY-ism issues be addressed?
In addition, along with the coming internal climate migration that is predicted, what proactive urban planning suggestions would you give to those cities mostly likely to grow (such as those in the Mid-west)?
Answer:
The best thing to do is to link federal transportation money to housing reforms.
Yes let’s make it so places that don’t want to house poor people also have incentive to cut public transportation.
