> We're considered a liberal city, but plenty of our residents have really conservative views around housing and work against increasing housing supply.

you can't create a system with politically "liberal" rules ("let's have the government control the economy") and then say it's "conservatives" who are holding things up.

the politically conservative position would be let owners of property do what they want with it, including developing it into more housing if they want.

not saying one system is better than the other, just saying you're simply using liberal and conservative to mean good and bad.
