What can states do to reform zoning and speed up permitting in 2025? @salimfurth, @ebwhamilton, and @OldUrbanist have assembled a helpful list, with lots of examples: mercatus.org/research/policy…

Housing IS the story
The 2020s decade has already seen more home price appreciation that the total for the 1990s decade, 2000s decade, and 2010s decade
Through the first 52 months of the 2020s decade, U.S. home prices are up 51.0%

Interesting @cprnc poll results on a bunch of Constitutional Amendments.
The judicial term limit amendment would assure @NCGOP control of the NC Supreme Court through the next redistricting cycle.

Supply and demand is real!
The U.S. housing market is short at least...
760,000 for-sale housing units
760,000 for-rent housing units
... according to @FreddieMac economists

Another success for the #CarolinaCore as U.S. 421 is designated future Interstate 685!
With this addition to our thriving economic corridor, we are not just boosting our economic potential but enhancing the safety and mobility of commuter and freight traffic across NC. @NCDOT

We’ve been talking about vertical mixed use a lot at @TCCNC. This concept is so situational that it can’t be applied everywhere.
Cities: requiring ground-floor retail is a lose-lose for tenants, landlords, and the community.
If you don't have immediately accessible parking, and lots of it, or you don't have lots and lots of foot traffic, you are doing nothing but creating a vacant eyesore for the community.
I understand you love the idea of people walking to grab their morning coffee, to their yoga studio, or to their hair salon.
Trouble is - it just does not work in the vast majority of cases, and a one-size-fits-all approach is fantasy.
People are not going to start walking up and down major boulevards because you think they will.
Great retailers know better than to take a chance on those terrible spaces, and the naive tenants who do usually do not last long, and lose lots of money in the process.
Housing developers do not have retail expertise, and they are building that D product just because you are forcing them to.
So you have an inexperienced retail landlord building a poor product that great tenants will never want.
I know that rendering looks great with all those people walking around, smiling with their friends, enjoying their morning coffee.
Trouble is, that rendering is a fantasy.
Just like the idea that this zoning law will create walkable communities.

Replying to @TCCNC
@TCCNC sends out frequent notices to members alerting of all Planning Board and BOA vacancies in the Triangle. The experts should be at the table and helping make these decisions.
