[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Because SFZ (Single family Zoned) areas are some of the city's most racially-segregated, largely retaining the demographics established by restrictive covenants and discriminatory lending, the report recommends targeting gentle density for particular areas that would achieve equity goals." Here it is. There is no academic argument, [b]so call the current zoning racist.[/b] [/quote] It's not doing that, though. "These areas are some of the city's most racially segregated" =/= "the zoning is racist".[/quote] Sorry, a policy quoted from 1937 dos not prevent a purchaser from walking into a bank today and requesting a loan. An argument can be made that in 1937 the houses were more affordable (I'd have to look at an inflation chart and verify) but any family of any color can buy those houses today. Heck you can do it online without anybody even seeing what color you are.[/quote]
