Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Shadowlake Village Resident research project

[Craig Ragland (craigragland]

Yes

One concrete example I heard of is use of Graham Meltzer's research showing
a smaller per-capita car ownership in cohousing to justify a lower
requirement for number of parking spaces per unit. This saves the project
money.

I suspect others who have run the regulatory gauntlet may weigh in on the
potential for policy shifts that makes cohousing projects easier, assuming
we can get better information to justify some of the things we believe to be
true about the ecological and social value of cohousing lifestyles.
