Does the fact that this was unanimous imply that this was more about signaling than about achieving some real-world impact? Presumably if they can get unanimous agreement today then there was some point in the past when they could have passed the same resolution but with a mere majority, right? And if you really think it's important to remove these constraints in a region and state with a really serious housing problem, you'd want to pass it as soon as was feasible?
