#a2council A friend expressed concern about the loss of single-family neighborhoods in Ann Arbor once the Comprehensive Land-Use Plan and associated zonings are adopted. I made some calculations based on the Portland experience. Here was my response: tinyurl.com/portlandtoa2

When we’re doing city planning, why aren’t we asking simpler questions? Like “How could your life be easier if your city or community were different?”

Some critics lament new buildings being disproportionately rentals. But ownership can't be regulated by the land use plan or zoning. And all housing types are needed as rungs on the ladder to home ownership, for those who prefer that.

Some A2 landlords and property managers don't want to have to compete for tenants.
When we build enough supply of homes so that landlords must compete, renters win.
"The more properties there are, it drives all of us to lower rents and offer concessions" says the property manager pictured here.

Democrats notched big wins around the country in yesterday’s election – but another trend, nationally and locally, is that pro-homes candidates also prevailed.

We'll post a list sometime soon but in addition to all the D vs. R stories tonight, in basically every nonpartisan election in the country today, the more pro-housing candidate won.

Use the linked form to tell your US Rep and Senators we need them to maintain this HUD funding for more than 800 Washtenaw County neighbors. The form is simple and quick.
HUD may restrict funds for permanent housing for recently homeless people
Reports say the administration will cut funding for permanent housing by 70%, putting 170,000 people at risk of homelessness
This threatens $7 mil. and over 800 neighbors in Washtenaw County
