Washington Legislature Embroiled in Climate Conscious Housing Development Changes

According to The Washington Observer, there is a renewed battle over climate-conscious housing. This marks the third attempt to revise the state's handbook for population growth and urban development with regard to climate change. Representative Davina Duerr, a Democrat from Bothell, is behind the latest push to update the Growth Management Act. House Bill 1181, which is quite complex, aims to promote high-density housing along transit corridors, restrict single-family development, and reduce traffic congestion, which contributes to CO2 emissions.
