Height restriction laws

Height restriction laws are laws that restrict the maximum height of structures. There are a variety of reasons for these measures. Some restrictions serve aesthetic values, such as blending in with other housing and not obscuring important landmarks. Other restrictions may serve a practical purpose, such as height restrictions around airports for flight safety.^[1] Height restriction laws for housing have become a source of contention by restricting housing supply, increasing housing costs, and depressing land values.^[1]
