Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the last quarter century, the city of Los Angeles has suffered a chronic housing shortage due to exclusive zoning policies tied to the rise of antigrowth advocates over developers as the prime determinants of land use policy. This article considers the history of two major land use reforms affecting the city of Los Angeles in the 1980s: the General Plan Zoning Code Consistency Program (GPZCP) and Proposition U. These reforms represented the decline of the growth machine in 1980s Los Angeles and demonstrate the viability of an antigrowth regime in a large, non-suburban jurisdiction. This shift has not necessarily led to more democratic planning in Los Angeles. The GPZCP and Proposition U instead represented the empowerment of new antigrowth elites at the expense of old capital-driven elites. This has been to the detriment of hopeful homeowners and renters seeking economic and social opportunities in the city of Los Angeles.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
