If you disagree with current zoning laws why would you want to weaken your ability to influence them by moving the decision to the state?

Delegation of power to local authority is a central concept of American democracy. Do not throw that baby out with the zoning bathwater.

My post was actually about defining a system of zoning and forcing localities (if they want to allow zoning for industry at all) to also allow high rise housing and commercial in the same area as well. And anywhere that's zoned commercial also has to automatically allow residential. Localities can still choose how they zone, but the state sets the types of zoning possible.
