ORLANDO YIMBY HOUSING PRINCIPLES

Policy Priorities

LEGALIZE HOUSING

• Allow for the construction of multi-unit housing throughout our urban core—near downtown Orlando and surrounding neighborhoods, SunRail stations, colleges and universities, and other employment clusters.

STOP THE SPRAWL

• We must build up instead of out. Local governments should prioritize infill development and housing density to protect Central Florida's conservation areas and natural resources.

BUILD MORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING

• Local, state, and federal levels of government must all commit significant funding to support the completion of housing units and developments that are accessible for lower income residents.

PRIORITIZE PEOPLE, NOT CARS

• Convert space that is used to store cars (parking) into space that is used to store people (housing), and build a robust transit system that is compatible with higher-density cities and towns.
