The surprisingly boring end to single-family zoning in St. Paul

A conversation with Zak Yudhishthu about the surprisingly boring end to single-family zoning in St. Paul, Minnesota. Five years after a bitter struggle to pass the 2040 Plan that ended single-family zoning in Minneapolis -- which is still tied up in court by pretend environmentalists -- a similar effort across the river looks sure to pass without much of a fight. The St. Paul City Council is expected to pass the zoning changes at their meeting on Wednesday, Oct 12). We talk about what sets the St. Paul policy apart from Minneapolis and why the politics, even in an election year, are different this time. Zak is the editor in chief of Macalaster College's The Mac Weekly, and a contributing writer at streets.mn and SouthwestVoices.news.
