March Meeting Summary and ACTION ITEMS!
A letter you could send to your city councilor could read:
Dear Councilor <Councilor Name Here>,
I am writing to express my support for Councilor Fiebelkorn’s proposed duplex amendment. Albuquerque is faced with inflated housing prices, little housing supply, and a rising rate of citizens experiencing homelessness. Permissively allowing duplex housing will allow for greater diversity of housing types and help increase the overall supply of housing.
Thank you for helping support incremental housing in Albuquerque.
-<Your Name Here>
Other hints to help tailor this letter to your city councilor:
• Consider your councilor's views on people experiencing homelessness. You may need to adjust your messaging accordingly.
• Include ideas about reduced infrastructure burden. Duplexes reduce the amount of linear feet of public infrastructure per housing unit.
• Explain why you or someone you know may want a more modestly sized house with less upkeep.
• Explain the benefits of additional housing along designated transit corridors and centers.
