Are we drowning in too much city plans? Or do we just have bad plans? Nathan Bird and Jacob Hyman argue that good city planning can solve many of our issues. Although developers and "experts" have caused weird and unsustainable developments, they discuss how local cities can retake planning their city. On the docket: imperial zoning laws, detached property owners, transient residencies, automobiles (again), minimum parking laws, and encouraging organic area planning.
