This week on Florida Matters, we talk about zoning and how it affects the way our state manages growth.
It may sound mundane, but zoning and building regulations affect us intimately because they hit us where we live.
We talk about balancing growth with historic and environmental preservation, whether inclusionary zoning policies can help create affordable housing and how zoning and transportation options are connected.
Our guests include:
Peter Belmont, vice president of Preserve the 'Burg, a nonprofit that promotes historic preservation in St. Petersburg.
Tyler Hudson, land use and real estate attorney, member of the Urban Land Institute and former chairman of All For Transportation, a referendum to raise the sales tax to fund transportation projects in Hillsborough County.
Van Linkous, assistant professor of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of South Florida.
