Council hears Phase 2 housing-code overhaul that would ease lot, setback and height limits
Community Development Director Eric Baker presented proposed Title 17 revisions that would reduce setbacks and hard‑surface limits, permit duplexes/ADUs broadly and allow smaller lot subdivision in some zones; staff recommended a 6,000‑square‑foot threshold for single‑family lots to use the new standards, while the Planning Commission suggested 8,000 sq ft.

Our local land use board forced a developer of a huge lot to build two single family homes rather than two duplexes, because everyone agreed naturally that single family homes are what we need more of
Meanwhile the dense area I live in town is 1/3 the population in only 8.5% of the land of the town

As Dallas gets closer zoning and code reform, the hope is that the city allows for more types of housing to be built in more places, particularly the type of housing that can be built most affordably.
Often, duplexes, triplexes, and townhomes represent the most affordable way to build new housing.

The reaction of Cranston's City Plan Commission to adding a duplex on a slightly undersized vacant lot, on a street filled with duplexes, because it exceeded the recommended unit/acre threshold by 0.2....was really somethin' to behold.

Applicant says state statute forces allowance of duplexes on single-family lots
At a Klamath County planning hearing, the applicant and commissioners debated how a state law that requires duplexes in urban growth areas affects a proposed zone change and whether local conditions — like a water ERU cap — can limit duplex conversions.

It sorta depends. Snob zoning finds its footing in the early 1910’s in a similar way it did later in the century/ today.
1. Racists who knew you could keep black families out by banning duplexes
2. Civil society types who had legitimate public health concerns regarding tenements

Besides, this place was three units at one point. It’s been a two-unit building for years. I don’t see this being replaced w/a SFH and I’d be surprised if that’s what neighbors want anyway. There are duplexes and multiplexes up and down 23rd Ave, interspersed w/SFHs.

I mean, idk, do people organically hate duplexes or are a small number of people pushing this stuff? I wrote a letter of support to rezone the house next to me from duplex to fourplex, it's a great idea.

Since the projects are technically duplexes, they can use the residential code. That alone provides considerable cost savings.

I desperately want this to be a simple story of the majority being silenced by a rich evil minority, but people genuinely like and support keeping duplexes away! This is popular! Nobody in office is pushing back against something that voters like!

Having a difficult time choosing candidates to vote for in #yyj civic elections. One slate blames the present City Council for changing zoning rules to allow 4-plexes in areas previously zoned for single family or duplexes. But this is a Provincial requirement! I consider that misleading!
