Show Notes
Kansas Citys east side is tackling its housing crisis by testing vacant lots for safe building. Councilwoman Melissa Patterson Hazley, in partnership with the EPA, is sampling soil in the Blue Valley area to identify any toxins. The program, part of her Housing Accelerator plan, aims to transform vacant lots into affordable homes, boosting taxes and neighborhood morale. The EPA covers the $1 million cost, with clean lots moving to grant applications for cleanup and developers eager to build. This initiative could revitalize communities and increase density across the city.
