SUMMARY:The 15-Minute City Webinar Series: Refashioning our Parking Regulat
 ions and Development Choices for Fiscal Health
DESCRIPTION:By contributing to a record-shattering decline in housing inven
 tory\, the pandemic has exacerbated an already existing affordable housing
  crisis while further stressing municipal finances. Our current developmen
 t patterns and parking policies contribute rather than help solve this pro
 blem. While multiple studies have shown that affordable access to all of a
  region’s jobs is the single most effective factor for enabling a person
  to break the poverty cycle\, our current development patterns result in t
 hose at the lowest income level spending 40% of their income on transporta
 tion while also limiting their ability to access all of a region’s jobs.
  This system could be explained or even tolerated if the costs of such a s
 ystem were low\, but our development patterns and parking policies are exp
 ensive to build and maintain. This session will force us to rethink some o
 f our public investment assumptions to create more housing and better econ
 omic mobility across all income levels.\n\nSpeakers:\n\n 	Marc H. Pfeiffer
