Have you called your state senator in support of transit oriented development, eliminating parking minimums, and legalizing ADUs? These bills face a tough battle in the Senate and every call helps! Find your senator @ leg.colorado.gov/house-district… and give them a call today!

Eliminating parking requirements helps affordable housing units pencil - especially now. Does this mean all affordable developments will not be parked? No. It means parking will be matched to demand. HB1304 helps Coloradan home affordability - pass it.

Governor Jared Polis

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.

Jurisdictions have found parking minimums to be one of the most significant levers to building more housing, along with more density near transit. Analysis by Colorado Energy Office finds would more than double the number of feasible infill housing opportunities in urban areas

People deserve easy access to public transit. The bill being considered by the Colorado Senate doesn’t just incentivize local governments to have housing and workplaces near transit, but keeps people in their communities and improve our air quality. I’m proud to support HB-1313.

Another one of our endorsed bills about to become law! While we work to build more housing to alleviate the housing crisis, let’s keep people in the housing they have right now.

Another one of our endorsed bills off to the senate! Please call your state senators and tell them you’re in favor of HB24-1304. Excessive parking requirements hurt our communities and our climate.

Listening to hours of land use debates for Bell Policy Center affordability fellowship. HB24-1313 density in Transit Centers surfacing *mistaken* use of data gaining traction all over: recent housing boom is matching pace of slowing population growth, so crisis is over. 🧵1/

Colorado's single stair legislation died in committee this year, which is really sad when you think about firefighters testifying on vibes and not actual data. This article mentions the testimony firefighters gave in Colorado.thesisdriven.com/p/on-fire-depa…
