>Connecticut’s zoning laws maintain the status quo economic and racial segregation. The word “segregation” might conjure images of separate lines and “Whites only” signs. Some might even think, “That doesn’t happen anymore.” But the harsh and horrifying reality is that it absolutely does. Segregation today looks like restricting people’s choice of where to live. Municipalities use zoning codes to prevent certain people from living in their neighborhood while welcoming others. Although the signs aren’t posted, the message remains: Whites only.
