[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ending SFH zoning is a sure way to get me to move out.[/quote]

I'm ok with that. Maybe you can sell your house to a builder, who will replace it with a duplex, and then two households will have housing to move into. Win-win-win.[/quote]

The SFH were here first. What's actually wrong with moving the affordable housing complexes further out into the exurbs? It's both cheaper for the community and healthier for the residents thanks to all the beautiful nature. Win-win-win, plus a fourth win for the environment![/quote]

If the goal is to reduce homelessness, what you’re proposing is not effective. Sure, you could build a housing complex in rural Southern MD. You won’t find any takers; the people it attempts to serve will choose being homeless over going there. Then you’re back to square one.[/quote]

You can find cheap land not that far out from MoCo.

Also, are you really suggesting a family would rather be homeless on the street than move into a nice unit with good amenities a little farther out, if given that choice? You seem like an armchair liberal who doesn't understand true poverty in that case.[/quote]
