Inclusionary zoning is not a magic wand we can wave to build affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Done right, it can help us get more housing built and increase our stock of semi-affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Done wrong, it can make our housing shortage even worse and drive the cost of housing even higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We must create a win-win inclusionary zoning plan, where developers are asked to build a certain percentage of affordable units. In exchange, developers can build taller, get projects approved quicker, or face reduced development charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under this system, everybody wins \u2014 the city gets desperately needed housing stock, development projects remain profitable, and our supply of semi-affordable units will grow across the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to mandatory inclusionary zoning in major transit areas, we should consider a voluntary inclusionary zoning system city wide. Work with developers to incentivize them to build affordable homes in exchange for offsets \u2014 this could help us add significantly more affordable units and market-rate units by creating a win-win system for builders and for the city.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
