Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) announces the Building Up Illinois Developments (BUILD) Plan, which would cut red tape and bureaucratic zoning regulations in housing development. "For example, local parking mandates often require a uniform number, minimum number of spaces for every new build, even in places where people don't have cars because they have ample public transit and available street parking. Unused parking spots add millions of dollars in costs and severely limit the number of new units that can be built affordably. Spaces for cars are being prioritized over spaces for people."
