Commissioner Kathryn Wylde questions whether Professor Mitchell Moss's proposal for streamlined approval of small residential developments (up to 8 units) is already covered by the recently passed 'City of Yes for Housing Opportunity' zoning changes. Professor Moss believes his proposal may allow for slightly larger projects (e.g., 8 units vs. 6, 40ft height vs. 35ft) than those addressed by City of Yes, although precise details require clarification.

  • There is overlap between Moss's proposal and 'City of Yes' regarding small-scale residential development.
  • Moss suggests his proposal might allow slightly larger projects (8 units/40ft) to bypass ULURP via BP review compared to 'City of Yes' specifics.
