Hey Austin, Single Stair Reform alert! The comment period for the IBC amendments closes tomorrow and we’ve got a pretty good shot at getting Single Stair reform. publicinput.com/w1676?lang=en Please voice your support here!
"We're short on all homes. Full stop. And that means that existing homes are getting bid up because we see high income households competing with low income households for the same residences," @pewtrusts' @AlexHrwtz tells @npratc buff.ly/3U5egIU
the Austin Planning Commission just voted to decrease minimum lot sizes to 1,500 sqft!
I’m proud to announce the endorsement of former Austin City Council Member Mike Martinez! From the fire department to city council, Mike's decades of public service have left a strong legacy on our city. I’m so honored to have his support!
I’m excited for the #ATX planning commission meeting tonight discussing minimum lot sizes! Austin has the opportunity to legalize small lot homes common in many American cities. In this video, I discuss how these and other housing reforms are very good for the Latino community.
Goodnight Ranch in Southeast Austin is getting this Park and Ride for a high-frequency bus line set to launch next year. The parking lot will have 64 parking spaces, but restrooms will be reserved for bus drivers only.
Glad city staff added $2 million to the tenant assistance fund which should keep the program going through the end of the fiscal year. Thanks to Housing Committee chair @NatashaD1atx for working w me on this issue and all of #ATXCouncil for their support.
2015 me would be pleased, but not surprised, that within 10 years the City would hold up our small lot homes as a positive example for housing. And as part of an effort to change the code! Play the long game friends!

People are spending more time alone- but studies show this is not ideal for health and mental health. We need to engage in more community, collaboration, and conversation. Business / trade associations have an important role and people should get involved.
New research from @MinneapolisFed shows that creating 100 new market-rate housing units leads to 70 new vacancies in lower-income neighborhoods. "Increasing the housing supply benefits households across the income spectrum." minneapolisfed.org/article/2024/h…
Working with @joseforatx to host a Know Your Rights session for our community. Details coming soon.

More housing affordability chatter from Texas conservative circles: @TPPF recommends prohibiting cities from setting minimum lot sizes & density restrictions for residential development texaspolicy.com/wp-content/upl… #txlege
in Austin, the average home now requires an additional $65,144 per year in income compared to 2020. frustrating to think we were ten days from passing a new land dev code legalizing tons of housing. NIMBYs 🤦♂️ zillow.mediaroom.com/2024-02-29-Hom…
This is an important part of the search for housing affordability. Smaller homes on smaller lots cost less AND use less electricity/water. The days of the large lot McMansion as the standard home type are dwindling. And that’s a good thing.

==> YIMBY is *always* more than housing. Lifting zoning restrictions for critical services like daycares, neighborhood retail and small businesses is good policy and allows cities rebuild their urban fabric and broaden their tax base. What are you waiting for?

this subversion of public process by homeowners openly using environmental concerns as a fig leaf for their aversion to tall buildings will have profound effects on the future of these movements and anyone who cares about conservation ought to be sounding the alarm about it

Travis County is growing quickly outside of the Austin due to affordability. The county has not taken seriously the growing need for public safety which has led to us having to utilize apartment complexes which are totally inappropriate for EMS stations. kxan.com/news/ems-stati…
It's been cool to watch my story on ~zoning reform~ capture a lot of attention over the last few days. If you haven't read it yet, check it out -- changes to allow more housing could be coming to a city near you. npr.org/2024/02/17/122…

Whenever @christofspieler visits Portland, he rides further out of the city on our light rail lines than the tourism authorities recommend.
Portland prides itself on its urbanism but built transit stations like this.
it’s wild that coastal cities have spent years debating if YIMBY policies will lower rents, and Austin just… did it they streamlined permitting, upzoned most of the city, and eliminated parking mandates. Tons of housing is going up and rents are plummeting. YIMBY policies work

@sam_d_1995 As we continue to advocate for more affordable housing, we must tailor our approaches to the unique fabric of each city, learning from each other while respecting the individual journeys of these urban ecosystems.
Not only are more cities and states adopting ADU ordinances, but ADU ordinances are continuously being amended to make them work better over time.

interesting price history on this dinky 1968 one-bedroom in central austin, which hit a high of $1,200 in 2023 but is now renting for $999 — adjusted for inflation, that’s not only less than it was going for in 2018, but actually beats the rent in 1972! zillow.com/homedetails/23…
So proud of @AURAatx, our leadership team and our amazing members. And tremendously glad I get to help support our mission everyday.
This is just the beginning. Minimum lot size reduction, compatibility reform, & transit-oriented development are right around the corner, and even after our work will still continue!😤
here I am quoting the very smart @rgoodspeed, who is also quoted in CITY LIMITS. Buy the book for more illuminating traffic metaphors!
"Engineers think of traffic as a liquid... if it gets clogged up, build a bigger pipe. In fact, the evidence shows the traffic functions much more like a gas, which is to say it expands to take up" the space. Loved this discussion w/ @megankimble #txlege douglewin.com/p/induced-dema…
