As our housing crisis deepens and political will to take bold action to solve it appears to be waning, it is disappointing that the administration that touted “10,000 homes in 10 years” is seeking to partially dismantle the Town Centers the Muni never attempted to implement. The refusal of the Muni to talk an active role in broadly implementing its own Comprehensive and Land Use Plans speaks to the futility of planning without action and drives home the point that we need to completely rethink how we accomplish our land use goals in this city. Twenty-five years after the Comp Plan was adopted and nine years after the Land Use Plan was adopted, the Muni proposes to walk away from a Town Center lot because it is disconnected from other Town Center lots. This of course calls into question why it was ever Town Center at all and speaks to how disjointed and dysfunctional the current Comp Plan, LUP, and Title 21 are. This screed is not so much a stance against this action, but that it is necessary in the first place, and to point out the inefficiencies put in place over two decades ago that continue to burden us today.
