IT'S ELECTION DAY!

Today, voters in Lakewood will decide whether or not to protect a more affordable, sustainable, people-oriented zoning code for the future of the city. As such, we might address two myths - this zoning reform is not a developer handout. It is a substantial move toward addressing an all too real housing crisis in our city. This zoning reform wasn't born from nothing, either - Lakewood residents have been outspoken on how much these reforms mean to them.

Folks, if you have not yet dropped off your ballot, you have until 7PM today to do so! Vote NO on all four questions to protect a better, brighter future for our city!

See our website (link in bio) for voting information and more on what is at stake in today's election.
