Provide cover for local officials to say Yes
@YIMBYwiki:
heard @Scott_Wiener and others make exactly this point (eg Scott here at #MTCcasa http://baha.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?publish_id=949360eb-a465-11e7-b89c-00505691de41 ) We need to help provide cover for local officials so they can take a broader, longer-term, more inclusive view
Add new rungs to the ladder
YIMBYwiki @YIMBYwiki 4 Dec 2017
@cbracy a messaging angle we've been exploring is: if ladder seems to be pulled up, perhaps what's in everyone's interests is to add new lower rungs - new forms of starter home like ownable/movable ADUs, small-lot subdivision, SFH conv to cluster c/@afahey
