The MBTA Communities Act requires cities and towns with or close to T service to zone for multifamily housing by right
Lawmakers tucked language now known as the MBTA Communities Act, which requires cities and towns with or close to T service to zone for multifamily housing by right, into an economic development bond bill Gov. Charlie Baker signed in 2021The controversial MBTA Communities Act has generated legal action and plenty of hand-wringing around Beacon Hill, but a new poll found voters are more likely to support the zoning reform measure than oppose it.
The survey conducted for WBUR and CommonWealth Beacon ran between Sept. 12 and Sept. 18 and involved 800 likely voters. It has a margin of error of 4.1% points. Most of the new poll focused on national issues with about six weeks left until voters pick a new U.S. president. Another Democrat, U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, also saw a sizable margin of support in the new poll. About 56% of voters said they would award Warren another term if the election were held today, compared to 35% who would vote for Republican John Deaton.
