[Ann Lehman (ann]

This 2006 study

was in support of renter property but has some good advice that still works
towards the end about mobilizing for a public hearing.

"As for property values, a presenter at a Harvard Revisiting Rental Housing
summit
<http://www.jchs.harvard.edu/sites/jchs.harvard.edu/files/rr07-14_obrinsky_stein.pdf>agreed,
saying, “The fear that housing density will hurt property values seems to
be primarily based on anecdotes. By contrast, most research has come to a
different conclusion: In general, neither multifamily rental housing, nor
low-income housing, causes neighboring property values to decline.”
