@kingrat the solution isn’t to convince NIMBY’s, it’s to legislate by-right incremental development.

If you’ve got a single family home, you should be able to walk in and out of a permitting office in one day with a permit to build a duplex , triplex, or triple decker.

If you have a duplex/triplex, by right you should be able to build a 3-5 story apt building.

You have a 5 story building, by right you should be able to build a 10 story building.

No community input meetings needed.

I’m sitting near an old guy also waiting to go to Paris. He said that he doesn’t know any French and I taught him “je prends deux croissants” and said “that’s all you need to know.”

A French chick sitting near us overheard and said “that’ll work.”
