Prof. Orfield Quoted in the Star Tribune About Inclusionary Zoning
Professor Myron Orfield was quoted in the Star Tribune about the use of inclusionary zoning in proposed luxury rental properties on the riverfront in Minneapolis. Orfield doubted the use of inclusionary zoning would greatly diversify the downtown neighborhood, but rather draw young white residents in the early stages of their careers, "unless [Sherman Associates] has an affirmative rental plan." "The idea of inclusionary zoning is a good idea," said Orfield. "I just wish the council would use it some place like Linden Hills."
