What Is The City of Yes for Housing Opportunity? with Capalino Senior Advisor Richard Barth and Principal Brian Cook
The City of Yes for Housing Opportunity is the City’s comprehensive zoning reform proposal to address the housing crisis by expanding opportunities for housing across the city and in all 59 community districts. As described by City Planning, it would make it possible to build a little more housing in every neighborhood. One of the most significant zoning reforms in 60 years, the proposal has gone through an extensive public review process and is now being considered by the City Council. In this Future of New York discussion, we will discuss:
- What modifications have been made by the City Planning Commission, and how will reforms affect housing production, affordability, and communities around the city?
- What are the “hot-button” issues raised by the proposals?
- What do experts and constituent groups think of its pros and cons?
Join Capalino’s experts in land use and public policy, Senior Advisor Richard Barth and Principal Brian Cook, for an in-depth exploration of City of Yes for Housing Opportunity and its implications for communities and the city’s future.
