#A2Council someone hit the utility pole at Beakes & N Main again. This is a dangerous-by-design corner for pedestrians.

#A2Council when you hear Councilmembers, consultants, or community members talk about restraining zoning to preserve "naturally occurring affordable housing," this is what they're talking about:

In between poll greeting shifts I popped over to The Upkeep to play in a #DisneyLorcana set champs tournament and brought home the champion mat.

#a2council boggles the mind that City Council thinks this house would be out of place in most neighborhoods in the City and intends to continue the functional ban on any more being built in the vast majority of the city.

Alon Levy is once again bringing simple factual analysis to environmental policymaking, taking a close look at the "embodied carbon" argument against new urban infill construction.

#A2Council

pedestrianobservations.com/2025/06/08/m...
Regulations on new construction’s embodied carbon are likely a net negative for the environment. The most significant social policy concerning housing as far as environmental impact is concerned is to encourage people to live in urban apartment buildings near train stations. Any regulation that makes this harder – for example, making demolitions of small buildings to make room for big ones harder, or demanding that new buildings meet embodied carbon standards – makes this goal harder. This can be understandable occasionally if the goal of the regulation is not environmental, for example labor regulations for construction workers. It is not understandable if the goal is environmental, as the concern over embodied carbon is. People are entitled to their opinion that small is beautiful as a matter of aesthetic judgment, but they are not entitled to alternative facts that small is environmentally friendly.

The same people who lament the loss of places like Braun Court continue to work tirelessly to ensure nothing like it can ever be built again. #A2Council

Do not trust Google's AI summaries. They make things up out of thin air, citing library records that do not exist. A lie.
