[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The same people objecting to MM are the people complaining that there aren't enough workers to support their quality of life.

Who is going to commute two hours or more to make your Panera sandwich?[/quote]

yep. and teachers and nurses and long waits in the ER … [/quote]

None of the MM proposal would actually address affordable housing. It’s a handout to developers. [/quote]

Opponents do not support MMH because they believe it would bring in people who are less wealthy who would drive down property values. They would oppose the initiative even if the county limited sales of MM units to people with incomes below a certain threshold.

It’s all about property value and keeping cars off their street. They don’t actually care about trees or infrastructure capacity. [/quote]

Simply put, you are a liar.

I bought my SFH in Del Ray in 1999 because I wanted to live in a leafy, older, walkable community with small houses and tidy yards. It was what I could afford, too. Del Ray floods ALL THE TIME now. This did not happen 20 years ago. It didn't. The schools also weren't bursting at the seams either. Now, Alexandria city council want to destroy that. They want my block of 80 people to support 440 people. That will trash the already over stressed sewer system and push the schools past the brink. It will stress everythig from our under sized police force to our trash collection, everything. You simply cant add people onto a boat and pretend there are no consequences.

All your lot has is xenophobic adhominems. That's it.[/quote]
