Brett HerronGUEST
I think there is some influence on the Democratic Alliance by property developers and I shared one anecdote where I was called by a property developer to explain an affordable housing project and that was a donor to the party.
Brett HerronGUEST
You can see the influence when anyone asks about the inclusionary housing policy.
Brett HerronGUEST
The inclusionary housing policy was something that I worked on for three years with property developers, with housing activists like Ndifunukwasi, Reclaim the City, with planners from the province and the city, with academics from UCT, and then guided by the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, which is one of the preeminent think tanks in urban land policy and how urban land can finance affordable housing.
Brett HerronGUEST
And we together crafted an inclusionary housing policy, which was ready for public engagement in 2018.
Brett HerronGUEST
But if you ask Mayor Hill Lewis now about the inclusionary housing policy, his knee-jerk reaction is that it's Stalinist, it's Marxist.
Brett HerronGUEST
That's the language he uses.
Brett HerronGUEST
So he has a fear that inclusionary housing policies would interfere with the property market and with the market, as he calls it.
Brett HerronGUEST
And they measure success currently by... whether property values increase.

We'll be right back, folks.
Guy WilliamsGUEST
Th-this is one of those concepts that came about...
Guy WilliamsGUEST
And the idea was, what if there was a way to increase low, low-cost housing? Great idea, wonderful thought, and there are some ways to do it, and we'll, we'll talk a bit that, those at the end.
Guy WilliamsGUEST
But instead, uh, what if we just mandated it? And so states like New Jersey, Massachusetts, California, those are the areas that have most of these mandatory inclusionary zoning rules.
Guy WilliamsGUEST
Just said, "If you build a certain number of apartments, uh, typically five or more, you have to include a percent of low income targeted units that'll be rented to people with, uh, limited means." So worthy objective, uh, and if you don't do it, you'll have substantial fines.
