All the usual excuses to oppose development apply the opposite here, and yet, we still don't get approval.
Worse, this means that any development that *does* happen will necessarily be up market, to cover the increased costs of incorporating the houses in the development.
Anyone who voted for this, just voted AGAINST making housing more affordable in this city. Did I say ticked, nah, livid. I've asked repeatedly for the voting record, but nobody has told me, anyone happen to know who was there?
All true. I mean, how weird would it be, having a new apartment beside newer apartments and a very new 'house like' structure? Lot of newer buildings in that area, really no point of having 2 homes, which I believe all there is, sticking out like a sore thumb.
