Emptying a bin in the Netherlands. Having these large bins on residential streets ensures there is no "bin day", residents are free to put their rubbish out whenever they please, which leads to less litter in the street. A sensor tells the local authority when it's full, meaning fewer truck journeys

Would anyone build parking if it wasn’t legally mandated? I sort of think they would. So why do some people think arbitrary minimums are in the public interest?
Whenever someone testifies that their town needs parking, I want to ask, "Does your town need parking, or does your town need to mandate a minimum amount of parking whether the market demands it or not?"

We couldn’t build the places we fight so hard to protect.
Made up of a mix of single-family & multi-family buildings, Salem’s historic Chestnut Street dates back to the 1800s and sits in a protected historic district. Nearly every lot substantially violates current zoning.

This is fantastic. We need all cities to do this. Don't we all want clean air and a livable planet?
Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people.
Good trade.

A recent example: In 2023, I introduced a bill to raise bridge tolls by $1.50 to support transit. There was big pushback that raising tolls would harm lower income drivers. The bill died.
In 2024, a $3.50 toll increase was proposed to fund bridge maintenance. It easily passed.
