Shoreline Mayor @electroberts.bsky.social signs the ordinance eliminating parking minimums in new developments citywide.
A huge win for housing affordability, climate, walkability, business & more!
Great to see so many residents speaking in favor, and a nice reminder that we CAN HAVE nice things!

Then onto Shoreline’s Hands Off rally - great turnout and good vibes.
Still getting used to the suburban rally modality of standing on a corner and having cars honk approvingly at you. Next time can we at least take the street??

Learned so much at our first Urbanist Book Jam - like a book club but instead of everyone reading the same book, you talk about a book you like and why we should like it too. Hang out, get smarter, meet some cool people.
Anyway we’re doing it again next month: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Nobody could agree on a book for our book club, so instead we’re all gonna read different books and then take turns summarizing the most mind blowing ideas in them.
“Urbanist books” is verrry loosely defined here. This could get silly. Join us? docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
