YIMBY of Northern Nevada: Difference between revisions

 

<big>'''Density is good'''</big><br />

 

* We are unapologetic urbanists who believe in the virtues of cities. More people living in close proximity to each other can improve their lives and the lives of those far beyond the centers of Reno and Sparks.<br />

 

<big>'''Housing is a home'''</big><br />

 

* It is not the role of the local government to maximize wealth for property owners.<br />

<big>'''Stop Displacement'''</big>

<br />

 

* Greater Reno has the physical space for more housing without displacing existing residents.<br />

 

<big>'''Zoning & Planning Policy Prescriptions'''</big><br />

 

* We believe in long-term planning. Once a citywide or neighborhood plan is made, the process for building should be streamlined, well-defined and predictable. It should not impose significant delays on or add significant costs to a project, nor should individual property owners or neighborhood associations have the power to hijack it.<br />
