Re-Regulating for Quality Housing Abundance
Eric Kronberg | Architect + Urban Designer | Atlanta, Georgia
Eric shared an expansive compendium of strategies for increasing the supply of housing. His presentation covered how to identify, break down, and solve problems that are holding back communities from being socially vibrant and economically productive. Those problems take many forms, including underutilized buildings, poor urban design, outdated, restrictive zoning codes, or a lack of variety as it relates to residential and commercial buildtypes. He speed walked through best practices that cover zoning and subdivision ordinances, building codes, and financial systems to support flourishing communities. He touched on policies at both the local and state level, recognizing that it often takes both to achieve better outcomes, as well as implementation strategies like pilot projects and pre-approved plans as tools to facilitate better outcomes.
