- "An example of disproportionate housing needs would be found when a significantly higher proportion of the jurisdiction's black residents experience a severe cost burden when compared to the proportion of the jurisdiction's white residents experiencing a severe cost burden," HUD notes.
In a companion "Fair Housing Assessment Tool," HUD counts "land use and zoning laws, such as minimum lot sizes, limits on multi-unit properties, height limits, or bedroom-number limits as well as requirements for special use permits (and) occupancy restrictions" among "factors contributing to segregated housing patterns." Why should Baltimore, Detroit, Memphis get to have all the fun? Curious why they haven't targeted inserting diversity into the Somali occupied section of the TwinCities? | |
