Where We Live

Housing is a basic human right which impacts all aspects of life.

While Gainesville is home to many dynamic communities and neighborhoods, many residents across the city live in neighborhoods that lack access to basic services and resources. Ongoing needs include resources such as quality sidewalks and transportation, health and wellbeing services, childcare, grocery stores, and community parks and open spaces.

Suggestion
Please rephrase Outcome 2, Strategy 4 to include all historic neighborhoods.

Suggestion
I object to the wording of Outcome 1, Strategy 1: No proof has been presented that there are barriers in the LDC that restrict the diversity of housing forms. True, each zoning classification has restrictions that limit what may occur within that zone, but it is always possible to rezone a property or area to allow for a different set of limitations. The process of rezoning provides an important publicly accessible step that ensures neighbors, and the community at large are aware of land use changes in the offing.

Suggestion
I would suggest that this include education to residents on home care and maintenance. Things as simple as changing air filters in the HVAC, nothing but pee and poo in toilets and not pouring grease down drains.

In the single-family neighborhoods around UF, this would only further student housing and would not be affordable for low- to middle-income families. The increase in student housing in these neighborhoods would destroy these historic areas and would contribute to "excessive sound (which) is a detriment to the public health, safety, welfare and quality of life of the residents of the city" according to the City's noise ordinance. I know this from personal experience.

Some neighborhoods will never be "affordable" no matter how many units are added, not without decreasing that neighborhood's property values first.

Heartwood took over a decade and has built 11 homes, less than 10% of the units in the old Kennedy Homes. The homes look beautiful it does not seem like a solution that in its current form can scale to solving the large need for affordable housing.
