Proponents argue that it increases the supply of affordable housing and addresses housing shortages. Opponents argue that it interferes with the housing market and can be costly for taxpayers.

Yes, but they need to have more of a plan for city infrastructure first. Many residential/housing developments are not designed to be environmentally or people-friendly. There should be more roads, plazas, and walkways designed to better handle the population.
@9VW59ZN2mos2MO
Yes but only by permit fees and taxes. Have single family houses under 1400 square feet the lowest rate and then for every sq ft larger impose an additional $10,000 to the fee. Smaller single family homes need to be the norm.
@9VF2RTR3mos3MO
What about affordable housing for all. I am a single income female no children and I get nothing and I work my *** off to survive and pay bills eat when I can afford it.
@9V529PY3mos3MO
Yes, but do so by reducing development restrictions and regulations.
@9T6QRJ94mos4MO
the government should construct and manage affordable housing
@B22FPCG2wks2W
No, the government should incentivuze market-rate housing
@9T2Z7Y54mos4MO
Yes, but the incentives should make sure that developers are only hiring quality workers and building quality homes
