I'm so proud the work of @ProHousingPgh for helping get this done. Thru exhaustive research, public comments, meetings with local leaders, and tireless advocacy for what's right - we defeated mandatory IZ, ended parking mins, legalized ADUs, eliminated FAR, and reformed setbacks.

Other U.S. cities that have done this have seen positive results.
