Arbitrary Lines: how zoning broke the American city and how to fix it

Arbitrary Lines is a book that needs almost no introduction. Author M. Nolan Gray has laid out a future for planners void of zoning that allows us to focus our efforts on long range land use planning instead. While it may seem like an impossible task, many communities are taking small steps towards that goal by ridding their codes of parking requirements or single family zoning.Links:Check out another interview with Nolan on the APA Podcast: https://planning.org/podcast/arbitrary-lines-author-nolan-gray-on-zoning-reform-and-hitting-plannings-reset-button/Here’s a short article by Nolan from the Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/author/nolan-gray/Grab a copy of the book: https://islandpress.org/books/arbitrary-lines Follow us on social media for more content related to each episode:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/booked-on-planning/Twitter: https://twitter.com/BookedPlanningFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/bookedonplanningInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bookedonplanning/
