Okay, here’s a local election wine-induced meta thread. Housing, climate, transportation, land use, etc. 21:15:12, 2017-10-01
I hope we get to where we face that choice. But for now we’re still on track to be CO's Palo Alto, where only capital can afford to live. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:22:47, 2017-10-01
Price rationing seems like one of the worst kinds of exclusivity. It’s necessarily classist & in US, that means it’s also shamefully racist. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:19:40, 2017-10-01
Living in the middle of socialist Stockholm, Sweden is very affordable. And there’s a 10 year long waiting list to do so. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:18:10, 2017-10-01
And at that point, we have to decide if that’s the kind of place we want to be. Exclusive, but not economically exclusive is a thing. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:17:37, 2017-10-01
If we do that, we’ll no longer be rationing access to Boulder by price, which would be a big improvement, but we may still be rationing. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:17:01, 2017-10-01
But only if we use development to create lots of permanent affordability, and only if we don’t try to do it all with cars. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:15:47, 2017-10-01
So I stand by my assertion that a Boulder of 250K could be a much better Boulder, given our stated values of sustainability & inclusion. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:15:03, 2017-10-01
But of course those people have families and create additional need for services too, so they don’t come alone. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:13:24, 2017-10-01
From an economic accessibility, inclusion & diversity POV, seems like we need to house at least another 60,000 folks. Because in-commuters. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:12:06, 2017-10-01
From a climate action POV, there’s a threshold density where cars start to fade away & most dwellings share walls => vastly more efficient. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:10:48, 2017-10-01
But how much of this do we do? Will there ever be “enough” housing in Boulder? Obviously opinions on this differ dramatically. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:08:54, 2017-10-01
But we shouldn’t be shy about upzoning for permanent affordability — make it the economically obvious thing for a property owner to do. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:07:11, 2017-10-01
And the upzoning will ultimately create a windfall regulatory profit for whoever happened to own the land when it happened. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:05:59, 2017-10-01
Otherwise over time, while they’ll remain affordable relative to single-family homes, those smaller units will still become unaffordable. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:05:07, 2017-10-01
They also need to support ending land value appreciation for middle-income housing made economically accessible through up zoning. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:04:03, 2017-10-01
For me, they gotta support subsidizing actual low-income housing, for folks that can’t afford construction + O&M costs of a modest abode. in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:02:54, 2017-10-01
And now I’ll piss off the other half of everyone. How can you tell if someone in favor of upzoning really cares about affordability? in reply to ZaneSelvans 15:00:54, 2017-10-01
It will also, because of regs associated w/ affordable housing funding, never be able to serve our middle-income households. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:59:11, 2017-10-01
The affordable housing we can create w/o changing land-use regs will always be very limited in scope, and an inefficient use of public $. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:58:29, 2017-10-01
If a candidate opposes using incredibly powerful tools of land-use and zoning to increase affordable housing, I can’t take them seriously. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:57:03, 2017-10-01
Of course, the same tools can reduce land costs on subsidized housing units, stretching the same $ further, serving more low income people. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:55:51, 2017-10-01
This will make housing accessible to folks who can afford the construction & maintenance costs, but only a little bit of land. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:54:45, 2017-10-01
We'd do this by allowing a substantial increase in number of housing units allowed on a lot, if they are made permanently affordable. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:53:51, 2017-10-01
But if we’re willing to change land use patterns, we can create an essentially unlimited amount of middle-income housing. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:52:34, 2017-10-01
Per Pomerance (ugh), buying out of the housing problem is untenable. 10K single family homes w/ $200K subsidy each = $2B. Not gonna happen. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:51:30, 2017-10-01
That limited funding should be reserved for folks who can’t afford the basic cost of *housing* as distinct from land costs. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:46:12, 2017-10-01
Scope of affordable housing we can do w/o wielding land use tools is limited by funding. And funding will always be limited. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:45:05, 2017-10-01
Because if we refuse to wield the tools of land-use and zoning in the service of affordable housing, we’ll never get very far. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:43:27, 2017-10-01
My basic metric: does the candidate think affordable housing is more or less important that preserving existing land use patterns? in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:39:48, 2017-10-01
This is non-trivial, since (as with climate action) every candidate knows that the “right” answer is to support "affordable housing." in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:33:17, 2017-10-01
Folks have been asking me how I decide which #BoulderCouncil candidates are “really” in favor of affordable housing. 14:31:54, 2017-10-01

@LesleyBoulder 25 square miles of Boulder = 16000 acres. So, roughly 3:1. in reply to LesleyBoulder 13:11:36, 2017-10-01
So, I hope @jillgrano gets elected, and doesn’t believe it was *despite* her climate action positions — but rather partly *because* of them. in reply to ZaneSelvans 13:07:54, 2017-10-01
So if you take a crossover position, you get attacked or disrespected from “your own side” which weakens you politically. in reply to ZaneSelvans 13:05:53, 2017-10-01

@markgelband @waylonlewis Ah, Waylon. So clueless about so many things. in reply to markgelband 12:49:45, 2017-10-01
Because if we only do the land use *or* the energy supply path, we fail on 2°C goal. Spectacularly. (Not to mention traffic & housing.) in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:44:06, 2017-10-01
Which means we need a new and different political base to support those candidates and make this policy basket a winning one. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:41:18, 2017-10-01
We need candidates who see dense infill housing, non-car transportation, energy efficiency, different energy supply as political winners. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:40:10, 2017-10-01
So nobody can unabashedly support doing all the things we need to do on climate — some actions will always piss off part of their base. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:38:08, 2017-10-01
At the same time, good land use people have to spend political capital to do good energy supply stuff. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:36:28, 2017-10-01
Occasionally we get crossover actions, but they can’t help much. Energy supply people have to spend political capital to do good land use. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:35:50, 2017-10-01
Boulder’s one example. It feels like we’ve got two camps. One focused on land use, and another on the energy supply. in reply to ZaneSelvans 12:34:30, 2017-10-01
Historical lumping of anti-urban ideals and the environmental movement fundamentally breaks city-scale political economy of climate action. 12:32:30, 2017-10-01

RT @GissiSim: I have posted multiple concerning videos of police violence from the #CatalanReferendum today.
