By building lots of new apartments, rents for the Average Class C Unit are now cheaper than mandated "affordable" units in Denver

HB1308 helps address the housing shortage & affordability crisis in CO. Freedom to sell part of your lot will mean Coloradans get to stay in their communities and create space for more affordable homes to be built. Tell lawmakers to vote Yes! secure.ngpvan.com/yeV4Iu4dFUm6...

Why do we need to "Unlock" Middle Housing? Because it's naturally more affordable!

"Research consistently shows that the residents most likely to participate in local zoning debates and special elections tend to be older, wealthier homeowners.......and have more time and capacity to engage in public processes than renters, essential workers, or young families."

HOME Act passes the State Senate 22-13! Will now head to the Governor's desk!

“America and Canada’s elevators are the most expensive in the world, and the U.S. has fewer of them per capita than any high-income country with available data. Less than 6% of housing is accessible to the more than 30 million American adults with mobility disabilities.” @stephenjacobsmith.com

Working Coloradans are forced into long commutes because they can’t afford living in the communities they work in. The HOME Act (HB1001) would create more housing so that: 🍎 Teachers 🩺 Nurses 🚒 Firefighters can afford to live in the communities they support. @yimbydenver.bsky.social #HB1001

The HOME Act through Second reading on Senate Floor. One more vote before heading to Governor's desk!

The Road to Housing Act has gotten a lot of attention for banning institutional investors. That ban won't make housing more affordable, but the rule changes around manufactured homes could! Lets cut the bad parts and keep the good, and get this act passed.

One thing I feel ought to be discussed more is the fact that basically all rural and suburban places in the US are subsidized by cities. They resent cities. They insult cities. They elect politicians who abuse cities. But none of them could survive without cities.

Check out the next episode of the YIMBY Denver podcast. Anna and Lee talk to Sophia Mayott-Guerrero who's leading the campaign in nearby Lakewood to protect their new middle housing code. Check it out on Spotify or on our YouTube channel. youtu.be/WHZEG60tYAY?...

If you signed up for Lobby Day for HOME Act, it is being postponed due to expected bad weather. Stay home!

Considering the way IZ is going in Denver, it might be a good thing if Denver or Colorado legislatures take a look at this.

The HOME Act passes the Local Government and Housing Committee on a 4-3. Next stop Senate Floor. Join us for a Lobby Day this Friday March 6th at 8:15 meeting in the basement cafeteria. Sign up here. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Colorado has the second-worst housing shortage in the country. We need to build +34K homes each year to stop it from getting worse. The HOME Act can help us close the gap. Tell lawmakers to support #HB1001 to create more housing.

Those people are going to need a place to live once they move, so maybe also sign up to do a bit of volunteer work with @yimbydenver.bsky.social
