    Why a Legal Home Addition Sparked Outrage in Fairfax County

    Zoning Reform Is Only Step 1 in Fighting the Housing Crisis
    Dec 10 2025

    Utah wants to override local zoning to boost housing supply, but allowed by right doesn't mean possible in practice. Abby and Edward dig into the hidden barriers — complicated permits, scarce financing, and broken systems — that stop housing from actually getting built.

  • What Happens When Official Decisions Clash With Community Traditions?

    What Happens When Official Decisions Clash With Community Traditions?
    Dec 3 2025

    Who decides when community traditions change? Lafayette, Louisiana, recently rerouted its Mardi Gras parade. The goal was to improve public safety, but the change left neighborhoods, businesses, and long-standing customs in the lurch.

    Guest host Norm Van Eeden Petersman sits down with Lafayette resident and former city staffer Carlee Alm-LaBar to explore how communities can navigate change while respecting culture and shared ownership.
