Ugh it appears the Dems and some Reps want to get donations from developers by overriding the will of their local voters. This is completely unacceptable. Lobbyists in Washington and not be able to steamroll local communities to benefit their special interest groups. Zoning is a local issue and Congress should stay out it. [/quote]

This is also very stupid because Dems are threatening their change of winning the midterms for no good reason. Local government rules have a larger impact on most people’s daily lives. They will be very upset that bureaucrats and policy wonks that don’t even live in their communities are overriding their local decision authority because they apparently know better than the people that actually live there.

By “people” you mean the few old cranks who show up to try to tank everything they personally disagree with? The personality disordered who have fixated on bicycles? The rich who believe they own public space? [/quote]
