Illinois should override local zoning to allow small apartment buildings on most residential lots.
Most Illinois cities and towns decide what kinds of homes can be built on residential land, and many allow only single-family houses. A state override would let owners build several units on most lots regardless of local rules.
JB Pritzker
In many places, local regulations have made it too difficult and costly to build new housing...It all adds up to bureaucratic red tape that unnecessarily increases costs, delays construction, and frequently kills projects altogether.
