We agree! CO's housing crisis "isn’t a city problem. Or a country problem. This is a Colorado problem, and our leaders should address it." It's time to create a statewide solution to Colorado’s housing shortage and affordability crisis. denverpost.com/2023/02/23/aff… #coleg

68% of Coloradans support more housing near bus stops, train stations and business & shopping districts. Creating more livable, walkable communities is an important step to address our housing crisis. #HB1313 #copolitics #coleg

Thrilled to have Mayor Johnston join in supporting HB-1313! Focusing new development on transit corridors in walkable 15-minute neighborhoods will make our future more sustainable with lower emissions and more opportunities for folks to live near where they work.
Mike Johnston@MikeJohnstonCO

People deserve easy access to public transit. The bill being considered by the Colorado Senate doesn’t just incentivize local governments to have housing and workplaces near transit, but keeps people in their communities and improve our air quality. I’m proud to support HB-1313.

Eliminating parking requirements helps affordable housing units pencil - especially now. Does this mean all affordable developments will not be parked? No. It means parking will be matched to demand. HB1304 helps Coloradan home affordability - pass it. @WoodrowForCO @GovofCO

New: House Bill 1313, the transit-oriented upzoning bill that would apply to Front Range cities, passes the House 37-24* (with four absences). It's off to the Senate.

The ADU bill, which allows ADUs to be built by right in Front Range cities, has also now cleared the House.
Seth Klamann (sethklamann.bsky.social)@SethKlamann

We're back in the Capitol this morning for final votes on the bill to ban the sale/purchase of assault weapons; the bill to allow ADUs in Front Range cities; and the bill that seeks to carrot-and-stick its way to upzoning in Front Range cities' transit areas.

A bill to legalize ADUs in Colorado is on the House Floor, so I'm reupping this excellent thread from @kellyblynn on specifics of the bill and the rationale behind the policy decisions:
Kelly Blynn@kellyblynn

So excited for this new bill to encourage accessory dwelling units in Colorado! As others have said, ADUs aren't a silver bullet, but they now make up a significant share of new, often affordable housing stock in places that really allow them. (1/x) leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb24-1152
