Government cancels Affordable Water Reforms and dismisses recommendations from Future of Local Government review. Rates go up. Government blames road cones.

In response to severe housing shortages, New Zealand has passed some of the world's most ambitious upzoning reforms. Researcher Eleanor West joins the #UCLAHousingVoicePodcast to go behind the scenes on these policy changes. lewis.ucla.edu/2024/11/13/81-…

New Zealand took on its housing crisis at the federal level, challenging the idea that “housing politics is local.” For "Good on Paper," Jerusalem speaks with the housing-policy expert Eleanor West about what New Zealand and America have in common. theatlantic.com/podcasts/archi…

Great podcast from Jerusalem and Eleanor West talking about the New Zealand housing reforms. Interesting to hear more about the climate action group getting younger people on board with upzoning for a compact city.

Another great episode this week from Jerusalem on Good on Paper, learning from New Zealand's response to housing crisis. This is one of the best podcasts around IMO - only been going 6 months, but consistently great interviews on important, interesting topics

Great convo b/t Jerusalem & Eleanor West on arc of New Zealand land-use reform. tl,dr: Nationwide upzoning of transit corridors proved durable, but 3-story triplexes in SFH areas triggered backlash -- led by libertarian party (?!). 1/2

New post from me about Supermarket YIMBYism. The important but forgotten recommendation of the Commerce Commission. It’s time for a NPS-SD – National Policy Statement on Supermarket Development. 🧵
