New Yorkers Warn Kathy Hochul’s ‘Incomprehensible’ Zoning Plan Will Demolish the Suburbs
Breitbart ^ | 02/22/2023 | John Binder

Posted on 02/22/2023 5:06:11 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

New Yorkers living in the suburbs outside of New York City say Gov. Kathy Hochul’s (D) zoning plan to override local laws would effectively demolish their communities, forcing them to accept hundreds of thousands of new housing units.

After failing to impose the plan last year, Hochul is once again attempting to strip the state’s suburban communities of their zoning autonomy with a plan that would force suburbs to build a percentage of new housing and if they do not comply, the state will take control of their local land use laws.

No, Dems just want the “urban” black and hispanic vote out in the suburbs. Once the suburbs turn blue it will be bye bye Miss American Pie.

As a rule, more minorities live in the suburbs than in inner city areas. You can bet nobody, black, white, brown, are going to be happy watching their property values plummet.

They do not want people and families to live autonomously.

So THEY DESERVE IT, as far as I’m concerned - they had the power to PREVENT that bitch from staying in office, they chose not to, instead they chose to ‘Send a Message’. Obvious question: Did the Democrats in Albany get their ‘message’? Did the (now toothless) Republican in Albany get their ‘message’? You decide.

There were posters here calling Zeldin a RINO, etc. That sure didn’t help. Zeldin was about the most conservative candidate you will ever get for a statewide office in NY.

We found eventually that a 1/2 acre lot with increasingly lib/woke neighbors was WAY too small.

Good points, all.

Sending a message by withholding a vote is certainly counterproductive. With only two viable parties to choose from, we need to consider the party nearly as much as the candidate himself.

If we would only focus on getting quality candidates for the primaries, and somehow insure the primary process is free and fair, we could avoid having these problems of government overreach.

The dopey white liberals that voted for The Hag of Albany will be the first to cry out when a Section 8 development is built next door to their homes. NY state has been engaged in this practice for quite some time, allowing a certain amount of low income housing when new apartments complexes are built. But, Albany always wantsed to turn Long Island into the next Queens or Brooklyn!

ONE acre==43,560 sq ft.

43,560 divided by 50 === 8.71 sq feet.

A standard refrigerator uses more space than that——

SORRY-—871.2 sq feet-—

I do not have a large house, but I do have 1350 sq ft.

House in So Calif was 1250 sq ft-—but the lot was 7750 sq ft

Log house in N Calif was 2553 sq ft on 5 acres—217,800 sq ft.
