This is disappointing. Minneapolis eroding 4d, an affordable housing preservation tool, means eroding opportunities for more climate friendly, transit friendly, sustainable, affordable infill housing.

Advisory group in a US state just voted unanimously to recommend allowing single-stair apartment buildings up to 4 stories in their new code, opening the door for successful alternative means and methods requests TODAY to build them. Check the other site to see which one.

BIG #WeekWithoutDriving NEWS: With Minneapolis City Council’s vote Wednesday, every city along the @MetroTransitMN Blue Line Extension has approved municipal consent.👏
Transit is equitable #ClimateAction‼️🌎🚊
All four cities and Hennepin County have voted to approve Preliminary Design plans for the Blue Line Extension project. Of the 38 elected officials who voted, 33 voted to approve the plans. There's a lot of hard work left to do and we look forward to doing it in partnership.

It’s time to massively invest in a new kind of housing stock across the United States: Social Housing.
Today Senator @TinaSmithMN and I are proud to unveil the Homes Act, historic federal legislation to construct homes designed for people, not profit.
nytimes.com/2024/09/18/opini…
“It’s becoming nearly impossible for working-class people to buy and keep a roof over their heads,” @AOC and @SenTinaSmith write. “Congress must respond with a plan that matches the scale of this crisis.”

It's becoming nearly impossible for working people to keep a roof over their head. It’s time for Congress to respond with a plan that matches the scale of the problem.
That’s why @RepAOC and I introduced the Homes Act.

Minneapolis was built “from scratch” in a grid laid out for railways and streetcars more than 40 years before the first automobile ever appeared here.

Housing costs are too high for working families – renters and homeowners alike.
The answer is to build more homes, yes, but also provide Americans with a new option: permanently affordable, quality housing. I’m working to get that done.

Olive apartments show how the city is growing better because of the Minneapolis 2040 Plan. Now more people can live in the Longfellow neighborhood than before. Olive has 44 apartments on 3 lots where once only single-family homes or duplexes were allowed. storymaps.arcgis.com/stories…

Connecting unsheltered people with permanent housing and wraparound services immediately, rather than arresting them for sleeping outside?
Very demure, very mindful.

Hey everyone. Political behaviorists say it's vital to reach out to friends to remind them to vote before an important election, like tomorrow. But I just realized my most important friends are each & every one of you. So consider this my reminder, one friend to another.

Amazing! No more bad faith lawsuits against cities that try to plan for more housing (as happened with the 2040 Plan)
Woo-hoo! MN Senate just passed a bill to end the Minneapolis 2040 lawsuit & protect cities from similar litigation. On a 34-14 vote, "Comp Plan Clarity" is on its way to the Governor! #mnleg
