🧵 I want to make one point about the federal permitting bill. Before I do, I'd just encourage everyone who's interested in the details to listen to this podcast, which covers them ... extensively. There's a lot of complicated stuff in there & the cartoonish portrayals you see online are misleading.

Oh Brockton center is a lesson in 1960s urban core disinvestment. The mall out by Route 24 completely decimated it and it’s never recovered.

Today on Volts: the new federal permitting bill is 417 pages long. Some people love it, some hate it, some are just confused. With Daniel Palken, I methodically walk through why it's happening, what exactly is in it, & the political rationale for doing it now. This one is epic & fairly technical.

The critical power is pressing on the “rollbacking” where items like inclusionary zoning and sustainability/energy efficiency requiemt s are being cited around places like NYC/Boston where developers are on the warpath for rollbacks.

From a MA project perspective, they are very often cited as a “no go” because they are 2-3x more $/unit—and go figure, developers hate that. So they default to resistance HWH all while fighting for gas to be allowed in.

Then again I haven’t met too many Clinton folks who regretted the campaign strongarming the party into direct opposition to a populist candidate. While alls fair in love-war-politics, maybe the take away is we should let voters vote on the merit of the candidate and see where the chips fall. Alas.
