Who can blame him? CA is dangerous and overcrowded and so far Idaho is not.

My daughter sold a beautiful home in Idaho on 10 acres after her husband died. Then city council was obviously bribed into say 5 acres are OK. Daughter’s beautiful home now has another house on her lot and all of her fneighnors have moved away

.Californication really should be a sin and a crime.

Interesting. I knew a man in Australia who said he bribed local officials to allow him to subdivide and build another residence on his farm. Another fellow he knew also wanted the same thing, and said if they both kicked in 10K, he could get it done. He did and, almost magically, the change in zoning was approved...

Had the opposite happen to a friend in California. Someone was allowed to build on property zoned to small to build on. She complained, but the zoning officials simply refused to enforce the law...

Zoning is a way local officials have significant power. I believe it is often abused.
