This book was released on 1982 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zoning and subdivision regulations that guided the single-family tract housing of the 1960s and 1970s are inappropriate for the townhouses, clustered homes, duplexes, mobile homes, and apartments that dominate today's housing market. This report looks at how local governments have updated their site development standards both to fit the changing needs of the housing market and to make housing more affordable. Techniques such as right-of-way width reduction, cluster development, and the reduction of setback requirements allows for housing to be built at much greater densities, thereby reducing the cost of the homes. Case studies show four different ways to approach the updating of standards that have been applied across the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homeownership - a core American Dream - remains elusive to millions of families priced out of the unstable housing market. This book explores the delicate balance between regulations designed to promote the production of sound, affordable housing in safe community environments and the red tape in which housing developers become entangled.Based on case studies of communities in New Jersey and North Carolina, and building on extensive research on the housing development regulatory process, the authors examine the incidence of regulation and quantify the actual itemized costs of excessive regulation. How are the costs of excessive regulation distributed between developers and home buyers? How can state and local jurisdictions reform deeply entrenched regulatory systems to ease the delivery of affordable housing from developer to purchaser?Red Tape and Housing Costs examines the incidence of regulation. The distribution of these costs is critical to housing affordability. At the same time, developers shift to building housing for consumers to whom they can pass on the increasing costs of regulation. Michael I. Luger and Kenneth Temkin provide policymakers and housing advocates with hard facts and reasoned explanations about the link between excessive regulations and spiraling housing costs. The authors argue that their analysis will allow policymakers to launch efforts to create responsible housing development regulatory systems.
