In this episode of the Missing Middle, hosts Cara Stern and Mike Moffatt break down his latest “home score” report, grading every Canadian province on housing. Atlantic provinces like New Brunswick and P.E.I. lead the way, while Ontario struggles, with high costs forcing young people to stay home longer and many residents moving away. The grades are based on 36 indicators covering supply, affordability, suitability, and societal outcomes.Mike also explores housing policies that help, harm, or have little impact, from inclusionary zoning to development charges. The episode highlights how some reforms succeed, others fail, and why provinces can learn from each other. Tune in to see which policies actually work and what it will take to improve housing across Canada.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to the Provincial HOMES Report Card00:45 The best and worst provinces at housing performance02:20 36 assessment points03:39 The report methodology05:17 Avoiding harmful and irrelevant policies06:24 Provinces that have irrelevant policies perform worse09:40 Inclusionary zoning12:30 Examining the number of adult children living at home13:56 Ways in which Ontario sucks at housing15:20 Political will(not to build housing in Ontario)17:58 The levels of government can learn from each other19:03 We were hoping BC would have better results19:28 Atlantic Canada doesn't get in it's own way21:51 How can the provinces improve?Research/links:2025 Provincial HOMES Report Cardhttps://open.substack.com/pub/missingmiddleinitiative/p/2025-provincial-homes-report-card?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=post%20viewerModeling Inclusionary Zoning's Impact on Housing Production in Los Angeles: Tradeoffs and Policy ImplicationsInclusionary-Zoning-Paper-April-2024-Final.pdfHosted by Mike Moffatt & Cara Stern & Sabrina Maddeaux Produced by Meredith Martin This podcast is funded by the Neptis Foundation and brought to you by the Smart Prosperity Institute.

HR2: How Inclusionary Zoning Fees Are Excluding Buyers. Why is MAGA all or nothing? 6-17-25 by John Rush
Municipalities around the world have increasingly used inclusionary housing programs to address their housing shortages. Inclusionary Housing and Urban Inequality in London and New York City: Gentrification Through the Back Door (Routledge, 2024) problematizes those programs in London and New York City by offering an empirical, research-based perspective on the socio-spatial dimensions of inclusionary housing approaches in both cities. The aim of those programs is to produce affordable housing and foster greater socio-economic inclusion by mandating or incentivizing private developers to include affordable housing units within their market-rate residential developments. The starting point of this book is the so-called “poor door” practice in London and New York City, which results in mixed-income developments with separate entrances for “affordable housing” and wealthier market-rate residents. Focusing on this “poor door” practice allowed for a critical look at the housing program behind it. By exploring the relationship between inclusionary housing, new-build gentrification, and austerity urbanism, this book highlights the complexity of the planning process and the ambivalences and interdependencies of the actors involved. Thereby, it provides evidence that the provision of affordable housing or social mixing through this program has only limited success and, above all, that it promotes – in a sense through the “back door” – the very gentrification and displacement mechanisms it is supposed to counteract. This book will be of interest to researchers and students of housing studies, planning, and urban sociology, as well as planners and policymakers who are interested in the consequences of their own housing programs.

Pittsburgh needs thousands of new homes to meet demand, and there's a lot of local politicking behind potential solutions. One idea? Inclusionary zoning, which either incentivizes or mandates that a percentage of units in new housing projects be priced affordably for lower income households. A handful of neighborhoods in Pittsburgh have already tried it, including over in Lawrenceville, where residents helped pass an IZ requirement in 2019. Dave Breignan, executive director of Lawrenceville United, explains what he loves about IZ, what local leaders should understand about how it works, and which proposal he supports if inclusionary zoning ultimately expands to the rest of Pittsburgh. ICYMI: Yesterday we talked about two very different proposals being considered by the Pittsburgh Planning Commission. Please check it out!

Inclusionary zoning policies are commonly used to produce affordable housing and “social mix” in the U.S., but what about in Europe, where public housing and strong social welfare programs have historically met those needs?

America is in the grip of a severe housing crisis. Tenants have seen rents rise 26 percent while home prices have soared by 47 percent since early 2020. Before the pandemic, there were 20 US states considered affordable for housing. Now there are none. And 21 million households—including half of all renters—pay more than one-third of their income on housing. Harvard Kennedy School Associate Professor Justin de Benedictis-Kessner and former Burlington, Vermont Mayor Miro Weinberger say that's because homebuilding hasn't kept up with demand. They say housing production is mired in a thicket of restrictive zoning regulations and local politics, a “veto-cracy” that allows established homeowners—sometimes even a single disgruntled neighbor—to block and stall new housing projects for years. Weinberger, a research fellow at the Taubman Institute for State and Local Politics, and de Benedictis-Kessner, whose research focuses on urban policy, say even well-intentioned ideas like so-called “inclusionary zoning” laws that encourage mixed-income housing development may also be contributing to the problem. They join PolicyCast host Ralph Ranalli to discuss how housing became a affordability nightmare for millions of people. During this episode, they offer policy ideas on how streamline the inefficient and often subjective ways home building projects are regulated and how to level the democratic playing field between established homeowners and people who need the housing that has yet to be built.Miro Weinberger's policy pecommendations:Remove subjective standards such as “neighborhood character” from housing approval processes in favor of objective, measurable ones.Loosen zoning restrictions that enforce suburban-style housing development in favor of creating denser, more urban environments that historically provided more housing and are popular today.Encourage leaders of municipal governments to take an active role in housing development, seeing themselves as developers taking an active role in more housing being built.Justin de Benedictis-Kessner's policy recommendations:Integrate housing policy with other related policies including transportation and economic development in a holistic way that drives across-the-board progress.Transfer approval power currently exercised by appointed boards and elected city councils to municipal housing and planning staff experts and empower them with objective standards. Justin de Benedictis-Kessner is an Associate Professor of Public Policy at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. His current research focuses on some of the most important policy areas that concern local governments, such as housing, transportation, policing, and economic development. His research also examines how citizens hold elected officials accountable, how representation translates the public's interests into policy via elections, and how people's policy opinions are formed and swayed.He also leads courses on urban politics and policy, including an experiential field lab that partners student teams with cities and towns to work on applied urban policy problems. His work has received the Clarence Stone Emerging Scholar Award and the Norton Long Young Scholar Award from the American Political Science Association. He earned his PhD from the Department of Political Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and his B.A. in Government and Psychology from the College of William & Mary.Miro Weinberger MPP ‘98 served as the Mayor of Burlington, Vermont, from 2012 to 2024. The longest-serving mayor in the city's history, Weinberger led significant initiatives that transformed Burlington, earning recognition for his leadership in sustainability, economic development, and public health. Under his stewardship Burlington became the first city in the United States to achieve 100 percent renewable energy status. His housing reforms quadrupled the rate of housing production, and his proactive approach to managing the COVID-19 pandemic helped keep Burlington's infection and death rates among the lowest in the country. Prior to becoming mayor, Weinberger co-founded The Hartland Group, a real estate development and consulting firm based in Burlington, Vermont, and completed $40 million in development projects, creating more than 200 homes across Vermont and New Hampshire. He holds a Master's in Public Policy and Urban Planning from HKS and an AB in American Studies and Environmental Studies from Yale University.

Cities have lived with exclusionary zoning for decades, if not generations. Is inclusionary zoning the answer? Inclusionary zoning, or IZ, requires developers to set aside a share of units in new buildings for low- or moderate-income households, seeking to increase the supply of affordable homes and integrate neighborhoods racially and socioeconomically. But how well does it accomplish these goals? This week we're joined by the Mercatus Center's Dr. Emily Hamilton to discuss her research on how IZ programs have impacted homebuilding and housing prices in the Washington, D.C. region, and the ironic reality that the success of inclusionary zoning relies on the continued existence of exclusionary zoning.

Dr. Cassie Martin In this episode, Diana interviews Dr. Cassie Martin, Executive Director of Special Education for the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction in Washington State. She was also the architect of the Inclusionary Practices Demonstration Sites Project, which is what our conversation was focused around. She talks about the 16 demonstration sites that highlight inclusionary practices, and why and how she and her team brought these schools into existence, and how they have transitioned into a movement, and now a network. Appreciative Inquiry, equity, social justice, and research-based inclusive practices have made her model successful with educators and students. Dr. Martin also discusses the technical pieces as well as adaptive pieces and relationships that must be addressed in order to be successful in inclusive schooling. My favorite quote from our time together is when Dr. Martin states that "Research tells us that when we follow the path of the most marginalized, and learn from them, then it removes barriers for every single one of the students in our schools."

These regulations are the blueprint that shapes not only our cities' skylines but also the lives of community members seeking affordable living options.As stakeholders in urban locales push for diverse housing solutions, zoning laws oftentimes act as gatekeepers. By incorporating provisions for higher-density housing and infill developments, municipalities can cultivate a more inclusive housing market. Conversely, stringent regulations tend to escalate construction costs, thereby limiting the proliferation of affordable housing units. Urban planning, when executed with foresight, can systematically lower barriers, enabling investors and developers to contribute to a buoyant and equitable housing...
On today's show we are talking about inclusionary zoning. This is a new initiative in many communities aimed at creating affordable housing. The actual goal of inclusionary zoning varies from one community to another. In some locations there is a narrative that single family detached homes create an economic divide and therefore widen racial segregation that is implicit with economically segregated neighbourhoods. You won't find an affordable home in the middle of a neighborhood surrounded by luxury homes. In other communities, the definition of inclusionary zoning is aimed at creating affordable housing by effectively taxing developers with burden of building a number of affordable units in exchange for the right to build a number of market rate homes. The theory is that by sprinkling affordable housing throughout the city as part of new development projects, you prevent the ghetto effect of lower income areas separated from the more affluent areas. Inclusionary zoning programs vary widely in their implementation. In some cases, developers may also have the option of building affordable units in other locations within a city, or they may be able to pay cash instead of developing affordable units. ---------- Host: Victor Menasce
You know when a patient complains about swallowing difficulty and you do an instrumental, but everything looks fine? Excuse my lack of eloquence here, but…what the heck? This is often referred to as functional dyspahgia, and in this week's episode of The Swallow Your Pride Podcast, I had the absolute joy of talking about it with Jaimie Anderson MS, CCC-SLP, BC-ANCDS. Together we discuss the challenges that come with significant swallowing complaints that don't align with swallow studies, what functional dysphagia is, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options.

By 2050, we expect to have 70% of the world's population living in urban environments.Today, more than 1 billion people reside in informal settlements with the flexibility to engage in activities that are not possible in formal, planned parts of the city. At the same time, they have precarious security of tenure. Affordable, adequate and viable housing is both a public good and an economic asset, and so we cannot ignore the link with finance. Inclusionary housing may require subsidies. But it is not just about the cost of the property.As individuals, families and communities, our needs evolve over time. Making safe, adequate, resource-efficient, well-located housing available is a huge opportunity. In this episode we discuss how we can intentionally accommodate people in equitable, regenerative ways.We discuss switching to more climate-responsive, lower emitting, durable, locally-sourced materials, energy efficiency and electrification. As Audree Grubesic explains, modular construction (where 75% of the building of a home is done at the factory), robotics and 3D printing reduce waste, save time, use different materials, and allow for wholesale procurement and therefore housing that is attainable. Co-operative models enable bulk land purchases and negotiations with private developers. In the US, commercial space is being re-purposed, though this does come at a cost.For inclusive design, we must work with local communities and cultures - which are not necessarily homogenous or static - from the start. As Thea Kurdi says, while over 1.3 billion people today live with some form of disability, ‘universal design' will ensure housing more readily caters for the different needs of everybody, even as their circumstances change.Finally, housing does not exist in a vacuum - around it are streets, shops, transport, employment, culture, worship, healthcare, schools and other services that draw us to cities in the first place. However, urban land and its development, says Steve Brooks, is expensive. Densification and meeting our daily needs within walking distance are essential if we are to fit more people in the same area, and not squander space for private vehicles. His experience with urban renewal in the challenging hilly environment of Kigali, Rwanda, is particularly fascinating!Speakers:Audree Grubesic, CEO & President, Modular Sure SiteSteve Brooks, Founder and Director of Architecture, Urban Planning ConstellationThea Kurdi, President, DesignABLE Environments
Dr. Renae Bryant's philosophy of education is it must be student centered. Student needs are the essential priority. Education must provide a secure, supportive, and safe environment for children to learn.

Rent prices have steadily risen for as long as we can remember. But, few of us would have ever expected the unimaginable rent hikes of 2020-2022. With major metros seeing double-digit year-over-year rent percentage bumps, residents were forced to throw a larger chunk of their income toward housing. Now, with higher rent prices than ever before, America has become “rent-burdened,” and a dangerous threshold has been crossed. What's causing this rise in rents? Are investors to blame? And what's a solution that could benefit builders, buyers, and renters? We've got Lu Chen and Thomas LaSalvia from Moody's Commercial Real Estate division to give us their findings. Lu and Thomas's team have been tracking rent prices carefully, logging which cities have seen the most significant price increases, which are becoming increasingly unaffordable, and what can be done about the problem. With a lack of housing supply and inflation eating away Americans' income, what can everyday investors like us do? Thankfully, there is a solution to this problem that could help curb unaffordability while presenting a profit for investors. Lu and Thomas go over exactly what would have to happen to return to a normalized, affordable housing market and what's hurting our efforts to get there. Plus, with rents becoming unaffordable for many young Americans, our Dave duo asks, “Is real estate still safe to invest in?” All that and more in this edition of BiggerNews! In This Episode We Cover America's “rent-burdened” status and why prices have crossed a critical threshold Real estate markets that have seen the largest increase in rent over the past three years Luxury housing and how its development is hurting the effort to increase affordable housing Whether or not investors are to blame for rents skyrocketing “Inclusionary housing” and how investors can fill the affordable housing need while making a profit Whether or not real estate is still safe if renters get priced out of the market And So Much More!

How are we going to see the vision of a truly inclusionary world? In this episode of Science of Superpowers, Tonya Dawn Recla welcomes JWoW to discuss the concept of a genuinely inclusionary world. Tsunamic love will be born when you bring one set of forces of nature with another set of points of nature and their friends. Inclusivity is inclusion, focusing on diversity. However, the loophole is that diversity is specifically focused on ethnicity and doesn't have a broad enough spectrum across intersectional lines for us to get an entire global culture. Tune in to know more about this conversation and the process of curating the vision of a truly inclusionary world.
In today's episode, we're joined by special guest Jeremy Durham. Jeremy is the Executive Director of Boulder Housing Partners. BHP builds, owns, and manages affordable housing for low and moderate income residents. Alejandro Monarez, an Associate in our Denver office, hosts the conversation.
Inclusionary zoning is a policy born of good intentions.On its face, inclusionary zoning policies mandate that real estate developers allocate a certain percentage of new residential units to affordable housing. But do these policies achieve their intended aim?Emily Hamilton, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center, argues that inclusionary zoning may not be so effective after all.

What is Inclusionary Zoning? Inclusionary zoning would allowed new development to set aside a certain amount of units, a market rate, and an affordable market level, so that individuals who live in Worcester are able to live in those new developments that are coming on into the city. This policy is in place in many other cities in Massachusetts like Boston and Malden and a way to help tackle our housing crisis. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/donttouchmypodcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/donttouchmypodcast/support
Cities have lived with exclusionary zoning for decades, if not generations. Is inclusionary zoning the answer? Inclusionary zoning, or IZ, requires developers to set aside a share of units in new buildings for low- or moderate-income households, seeking to increase the supply of affordable homes and integrate neighborhoods racially and socioeconomically. But how well does it accomplish these goals? This week we're joined by the Mercatus Center's Dr. Emily Hamilton to discuss her research on how IZ programs have impacted homebuilding and housing prices in the Washington, D.C. region, and the ironic reality that the success of inclusionary zoning relies on the continued existence of exclusionary zoning. Also, Shane and Mike rant about nexus studies.

What is inclusionary parenting? In this episode of the Reclamation, the Reclas: Justin, Tonya, and Neva probe deep into how parents should create an inclusive, loving, and healthy home for their children. Often, variables such as traditions, beliefs, and religion hinder parents from becoming fully accepting of their child. When a child feels unwelcome and excluded, hatred and other negativities could arise. Inclusionary parenting is beyond words important as it fosters an environment that includes you no matter who you are. Tune in to know why inclusionary parenting should be observed within the four walls of the home as a parent.
Acting City Manager Eric Batista on 267 Mill Street Debacle, Inclusionary Zoning, Drought, and More. (July 26th, 2022).
On today's show we're talking about Inclusionary Zoning. This is a new term that you might not have heard before. Inclusionary zoning is code for building affordable housing. Many North American cities, including Vancouver, New York, San Francisco, and Boston have implemented inclusionary zoning. In fact there have been hundreds of inclusionary zoning initiatives around the world. The City of Toronto has just implemented their inclusionary zoning rules and adopted the principles in their official plan. According to the city, only 2% of the housing built in Toronto in the past 5 years has been affordable. That metric is not at all surprising given the cost of construction. As someone who underwrites these projects on a regular basis, there is no way to create new affordable housing without a builder losing money. Unfortunately, this is one of those initiatives that simply erects another barrier to development. The net result will be even fewer new units constructed which will ultimately reduce the supply without addressing the demand side of the equation. This is a selective tax on developers. It basically says, you rich developers are making too much money. So we're going to tax you by forcing you to include affordable units. But the problem with this thinking is that government can't force developers to undertake a project. If the project doesn't meet the financial metrics, then they'll go develop somewhere else where the numbers make sense. There is nothing forcing a developer to build in a specific location. If Toronto doesn't make sense, a large developer like Minto will go build in West Palm Beach. It's not like they haven't built in West Palm before. City councils are constrained by municipal boundaries. Developers are not. This seems like an initiative that is designed to get votes and win political points. Politicians want to be seen as doing something, anything even if the net result is zero. ----------------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com
