There is a very dangerous movement across North America to replace family homes with small / cramped / Third-World-Style housing units.

It’s a wonderful day in my neighborhood...

(sounds of earth movers outside)

A few trees and yards less everyday in my neighborhood...

(Jackhammer and chainsaw sounds)

Would you be mine, could you be mine, won’t you be my several thousand new neighbors?

Like local zoning isn’t centralized corrupt central planning as it is? Why is it that property the Mayor owns has 1 acre zoning and the rest around it is 5? What makes the Mayor’s property more special? Oh wait, he is crony and gets what he wants, while the rest are told to f-off.

Zoning in general should be illegal.

I don’t see the Town on my deeds nor the State, nor the Feds

All zoning is central planning, doesn’t matter if it your local piss pot dictators doing it, the state dopes or Uncle Sam

Putting high density and moderate income housing next to commuter rail stations should be a no brainer. Amazing that so many people are sputtering about it.

I can't read the whole article (the Mercury site does not like my ad blocker).

That said, one wonders how many Cali lawmakers live in gated communities as opposed to the human cages for which they promote through zoning.

An article yesterday was about the State of California taking zoning laws for street vendors away from municipalities. That blends with this. Already they have begun work to centralize law creation in the hands of the Democrat party who has run California for seemingly ever, so why not zoning laws as well.

One might think them a little premature in the announcements of these ploys, but at this point in time they probably think any resistance is by the board.

Population density directly affects local revenue stream. The more people per acre the more city revenue per acre without more infrastructure per acre.

Agenda 21 raises its ugly, dark head.

So glad I don’t live in California. Feel sorry for those Conservatives and FReepers who do.

The real enemy is the existence of public mass transit. It always needs subsidies from the people smart enough to never use it.

This law would essentially repeal thousands of local laws and expand property rights. I would probably still oppose it because I’m a California homeowner already and thus would derive no benefit, but be clear this law expands property rights.
