  1. All states but Oregon and Texas has Inclusionary Zoning. It is where the city can force developers to “include” certain items if they are going to build a higher density development. Such as: low income/workforce/affordable housing or a certain number of “family sized” units. Right now, all we can direct them on is how many units and other structural concerns: we as a city or neighborhood can not regulate what type of housing, only fire, safety and environmental issues (state regulated).
