Solomon outlined the package with Hogan that addresses local barriers to development, encourages bureaucratic reform, and sets overarching housing policy for the state. “We have a housing crisis in PA and across the nation. Housing is too expensive- young and old are being priced out of the market. Today, we are working collaboratively to ensure all Pennsylvanians have an affordable place to live and raise their families,” Solomon said. Solomon explained that zoning and parking restrictions have largely contributed to the housing crisis, as well as a 42% inflation increase in the housing market due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “With that high inflation comes an increase in monthly payments, taxes, and insurance,” Solomon said. “We are here today to create a pro-housing agenda for Pennsylvania.” “For too long our state has made it too difficult for developers to invest in our communities,” said Inglis. “States ranging from Colorado to California to Texas, Florida and North Carolina have all begun making similar changes, cutting government red tape to spur housing development in their states. It’s time Pennsylvania does the same. The time for affordable, abundant housing in Pennsylvania is now.” The Read more

“Allegheny County has the infrastructure and sites that corporations like Mainspring need, but testifiers also explained that Pennsylvania risks being left behind by neighboring states when it comes to creating sufficient state incentives and acting quickly to support high-impact projects with large energy demands,” said state Rep. John Inglis, who co-hosted the event and represents portions of Allegheny County. “Mainspring chose Pittsburgh over Columbus to bring about 1,000 jobs to our region, but lawmakers will need to be proactive to ensure our region remains competitive.” Read more
