@GP_Jacob - "stop everything and make a plan" is not specific. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GrantSimons2 - i have a few books but always open to input — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob - rather than jab w/o specifics, work with me to solve problem. The work is hard and technical, but I'd love to have your help. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - specifics are important here. CURA just did a whole study on this. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe always happy to. work is ongoing — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe - efforts similar to this are already underway. this is the kind of "boring" stuff I spend my time on. Id be happy to have your help! — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe i didnt realize you meant muni bonds. yes, we could do that. wanna help with a campaign? — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@micamaryjane @GP_Jacob - agreed. hence the need for affordable housing. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - and as this is the most important issue to me I'm all on board to make it happen — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - these suggestions are great. The trick is getting money to make it happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - love it! But if we do this unilaterally we need the money to do this. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@alexcecchini @RKdoe - thanks for the suggestion! Where does the money come from? — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - all 4 accomplishing that. What specifically would you suggest 2 combat gentrification? — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - And then how do we pay for the affordable housing and prevent people from being displaced? — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@GP_Jacob @micamaryjane @Nicky_Burger - so what would suggest we do with the vacant space and surface lots? — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe - it takes real work to get there. So if you want to help, I would welcome it 100% — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe - if you would like to help securing funds for aff housing (which I fully agree with) would be an excellent effort to actually help — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - finally i use the hashtag for everything from early voting precincts to aff housing to parks. It's a cheer line. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - 1:1 market to affordable ration in new development is not feasible without subsidy, especially if it's really afrdbl — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - 100m in bonds = great, & cant forget LITC. Been spending tons of time securing money.... — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - again, if you have specific input, please pass on. @RVarco — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - I cheer for both affordable (and we have many new projects in the 3rd) and market rate. @rvarco — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - been working extensively on problem of gentrification/displacement, so if you have specific input, please pass on — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - well that's the only point about ideology that I was making, which began this thread. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane @RVarco - exactly - you can increase affordability by (1) building affordable, and (2) increasing supply beyond demand — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - nobody said it was. but density on vacant parcels/neighborhoods (both affordable and non) is NOT causing it either — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - specificity. displacement of course is bad, but increasing housing spply on vacant parcel can help afrdbilty @RVarco — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - @RVarco from SEIU has done quite a bit of work on this topic. — PolitiTweet.org

Jacob Frey @Jacob_Frey

@RKdoe @micamaryjane - other areas like further northeast and south mpls east of 35w are definitely seeing gentrification. — PolitiTweet.org
