You can find information about New Urbanist design here <http://www.cnu.org/>and here <http://www.newurbannews.com/AboutNewUrbanism.html>. You will find that they are very compatible with cohousing view. Clearly the problem is to get funding for such programs. Maybe an earmark from your local, compassionate representative. :^)

Great links John! At the risk of involving 'government', are there any visible champions of cohousing of any type that are part of the government and have pushed locally (or nationally) for regs to better accommodate cohousing or for government 'encouragement' of ways to build more low cost housing?

Couldn't hurt to find influential people who feel passionate about the "not-so-big" house movement.

Lobby isn't a bad word on it's own. ;-)
