Josh Stein: “The city of Raleigh has been cutting red tape and passing ordinances to make it easier to build.”

“Single family homes, duplexes, multi family units, special needs housing ADUs or accessory dwelling units. The work does not happen in a vacuum. The city of Raleigh has been cutting red tape and passing ordinances to make it easier to build. That includes removing a requirement for a minimum number of parking spaces, which when you have that requirement, it makes it harder to find suitable building lots and it adds unnecessary costs and therefore increases the rents that are charged to tenants.” (06:14–06:21)
