Look at how housing production plummetted after inclusionary zoning took effect. Now the people who would have lived in these new buildings are out competing with others for existing rental stock, pushing rents up for everyone. IZ makes the housing crisis worse.

HB 1110 requires cities to upzone for middle housing, but does not require inclusionary zoning. IZ is particulary harmful to small-scale housing and Seattle data shows it. To avoid undermining HB 1110, Seattle must not impose IZ on middle housing. sightline.org/2024/04/18/sea…

"With the passage of AB 1505 in 2017, State law allows local jurisdictions to impose an inclusionary requirement on rental projects of 15 percent of units for low-income households without completion of a feasibility study." sjvcogs.org/regulatory-mecha…
