The racially-charged NIMBY, or ‘not in my backyard', phenomenon is at the core of zoning laws, particularly in the greater New York City area. In this episode, I take us back to the early 1900s to look at the nation's first zoning resolution and examine how it continues to affect communities today. I also revisit a conversation with developer Johanna Anderson, the executive director of Ithaca Neighborhood Housing Services, to learn more about a mixed-use affordable housing development in upstate New York. Founders Way is a mixed-use structure that boasts two separate wings with a new addition of studios to four-bedroom homes, as well as office space for rental and for sale. With a project of this size, Johanna discusses how she involved the community to preserve the existing design of the neighborhood and enhance structures, without creating a stark difference in architecture. We also touch on some barriers to housing such as racial disparity and affordable housing stigma. We define what exactly these concepts are and the impact they've had on Ithaca, as well as how climate change has affected housing in the area. About the Guest:Johanna Anderson is the executive director of Ithaca Neighborhood Housing Services. This nonprofit organization focuses on the development and operations of housing for lower and middle-income people in Central New York State. Prior to working at INHS, she focused on affordable housing development and support services for native people in Maine and in Minnesota. She has also held board member roles in other nonprofit organizations working in this arena.Topics Covered:The history of zoning in the greater New York City area as a means of separating usesExamples of mixed-use projects and why they work in combining usesDifferent types of affordable housing Funding options for affordable housing projects Who can live in affordable housing?Constraints when building affordable housingResources Mentioned: The Birth of Zoning Codes, a History.

Today on Midday, guest host Emily Sullivan, the enterprise City Hall reporter for The Baltimore Banner, takes a closer look at the annual Baltimore City tax sale. Let's say you're a homeowner who had a tough year – and you don't pay your property tax bill. The city can place a lien on your house…and auction off that lien at the annual tax sale each May. (The online auction is scheduled this year for May 21.) An investigation by WYPR's news partner, the Baltimore Banner, found that roughly 41,000 homes have been through the tax sale process since 2016. Debts attached to these properties have gone up for auction at a public, online process where individuals or LLCs can bid to purchase the liens. The buyer clears the debt with the city and state…but the homeowner now owes the third-party who purchased their debt. If the third-party remains unpaid, they can charge the homeowner steep interest…and eventually, can begin a foreclosure process to claim the property as their own. Joining Emily to discuss the problems created by the tax sales — and potential solutions — are three guests with unique perspectives on the issue:We begin with Baltimore Banner housing reporter Sophie Kasakove, who's worked on the Banner's investigative series. Then, City Council member Odette Ramos (D, Dist. 14), and Dan Ellis, executive director of Neighborhood Housing Services, join us to discuss their efforts to improve the city's tax sale process and expand the options for city homeowners who get caught up in that process.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Topic: When we take a deeper look at the home appraisal industry, it doesn't take long to realize that there's an apparent correlation between the value of your home and your skin color. And unfortunately, when trying to sell a home - the darker your shade, the less you'll get paid. Perhaps it's because the home appraisal industry is mostly white, male and aging: the Bureau of Labor Statistics says that of the 75,000 appraisers in the United States, 97 percent are white, and other surveys show that nearly three-quarters are both male and above the age of 45. Lydia Pope, president of the National Association of Real Estate Brokers, an advocacy organization for Black professionals in the industry, joins Tavis for a conversation on the lack of representation among real estate professionals, the growing issue of flagrant bias in home appraising, and discusses the solutions that may be at hand when facing appraisal prejudice.

Cities for Financial Empowerment (CFE) Fund: https://cfefund.org/The CFE Fund is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization; our programmatic, research and policy efforts focus on designing, embedding and replicating financial empowerment initiatives within the fabric of local government.The CFE Fund's national Bank On platform supports local coalition and financial institution efforts to connect consumers to safe, affordable bank accounts: https://joinbankon.org/Bankers, learn more about the Bank On certification here: www.joinbankon.org/certify Research from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation shows that there are many reasons consumers lack a basic transaction account: not enough money for the minimum balance; distrust of financial institutions; high or unpredictable fees; or identification, credit or banking history problems. Many Americans are driven to use expensive alternative financial services, including check cashers, payday lenders and pawn shops that charge high fees for financial services that fail to help people get ahead. Without a checking account, families wind up paying too much for basic financial transactions and are hard pressed to build savings and assets.Quick Facts:• Close to 5% of U.S. households (approximately 12 million adults) are “unbanked,” without a checking or savings account.• Almost 11% of U.S. households (approximately 24 million adults) are underbanked, meaning they still use some fringe financial services.• Nearly 34% of unbanked and 45% of underbanked households earn less than $30,000 per year.• Nationally, 48% of Black households and 42% of Hispanic households are unbanked or underbanked, compared to less than 14% of white households.Why do basic transaction accounts matter?A basic transaction account is an important first step in establishing a mainstream banking relationship, depositing earnings securely, accessing credit and saving for the future. Unbanked and underbanked individuals lose the cost savings and stabilizing benefits such an account provides, such as:• Cost savings: The average unbanked person spends 5% of net income on unnecessary fees for alternative financial services. This can amount to $40,000 over a lifetime—a significant amount for those who can least afford it.• Asset building: Without a bank account, a family lacks the ability to save reliably or automatically, or establish a banking relationship that can lead to accessing affordable credit for opportunities like a car, small business, or home mortgage.• Public safety: Without a safe place to deposit their money, unbanked people are more likely to be victims of crime because they often carry large sums of cash with them or keep cash in their homes. Elderly, disabled or undocumented immigrants can be particularly vulnerable.• Financial stability: Research shows that being unbanked makes it harder to achieve financial goals like reducing debt and improving credit scores.David Rothstein, Senior Principal, CFE Fund: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-rothstein-72a5516/David is a Senior Principal at the CFE Fund (https://www.linkedin.com/company/cities-for-financial-empowerment-fund/), where he leads the national Bank On initiative.

After several extensions of the state's eviction moratorium, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker issued an executive order last Friday that allows eviction filings to begin on August 1. Both the state and city have available rental assistance, and housing advocates are doing their part, too. Neighborhood Housing Services of Chicago expects close to 100,000 applications for some help. And while that program has been traditionally been focused on homeowners, they're helping renters and small unit landlords because they say evictions on this scale will harm the entire housing system in Chicago.
