To Thrive Together community in Bloomingdale

Yeah it's hard not to roll your eyes at this one. It's only green in name, but in reality just some suburban homes with green features. Also, I do not like the idea at all that they want the Region to agree to take over their wastewater treatment system if they fail to upkeep it. No thank you.

Presumably the region could levy them a special tax to pay for it?

I roll my eyes a little bit, but they do seem to be genuinely interested, just really missinformed or...short on thinking. I don't know.

I think this is part of our broken culture. Too many people like the idea of living "rurally/suburban" but fail to understand the compromises involved. Worse, too many people like the "rural/suburban" idea because cities are overrun with cars---ya know, from the unsustainable suburban development.
