I haven't catalogued things I've changed my mind on very well, if at all. In an effort to do that, I'm going to post whenever I think I've changed my mind, it should help me keep track and it will be public.

Making cities more family friendly is extraordinarily important. Single stair buildings are incredible for enabling larger more flexible homes that are perfect for families. Because of this, and many other reasons, Victoria should directly incentivize single stair designs.

A big problem in urbanism: getting enough family-sized apartments built in dense areas. Without them, people come when they're young & then flee to the suburbs when they have a family.

With the budget out it is clear the feds are off tune on housing, again. No minister could play the LPC policy song book well, but Robertson is making ears bleed. If you're a Liberal this article should keep you up at night because the warnings it holds are hard to ignore.
