VIA ZONING REFORM
“Cities and states can also enable housing production by converting land previously zoned for other uses. As work-from-home continues to be prevalent, the demand for commercial real estate has plummeted, so allow housing in commercial districts,” said Aaron Shroyer, senior advisor with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Policy Development & Research.
“We
also need to promote affordable housing options near transit and create more
people-centered neighborhoods.”
Shroyer is encouraged by a year that has seen about 200 affordable housing policy bills introduced in various states and the majority of them approved.
He said all
political parties are realizing that more housing supply will help hedge
against prices going up so dramatically.
