[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]we have to remember that Wes Moore doesnt care about maryland citizens. he cares about his national prospects. he really thinks he can be president. so anything he does in Maryland [b]has to excite the progressives nationally.[/b] so getting in front of CNN to talk about he removed SF zoning to make Maryland "affordable" is what this is about. but he plans to be gone when it comes into effect[/quote] Again...this is comical. Maryland would be adopting laws that are commonplace in places like Texas and Florida. This is bizarro world I guess where implementing laws that are commonplace in various Red states are now "progressive". BTW, basically anytime a ballot initiative happens in a red state for expanding Medicaid, increasing minimum wage, etc., it passes with flying colors.[/quote] not the same. texas and florida are restricting SF zoning size to encourage more density instead of bigger lots. they can keep their sf neighborhoods. moore is saying you can build whatever you want , wherever you want. thats is purely yimby and designed to excite progressives who all of the sudden hate single family homes. although almost all the white progressive grew up in single family homes. mostly, I think moore just sees more property tax money especially in affluent areas. tear down a 1.5 million home and build four(4) 900K townhomes. now he gets revenue of 3.6Million instead of 1.5Million.[/quote] I don't know what this means...at all. I spend the Winter in FL and in the SF neighborhood where I am renting there is a fairly large condo building (three floors and 6 units) going up literally across the street (it was a SFH torn down)...and 1/2 a block away a SFH home that also had commercial zoning is being converted into a hipster tattoo parlor (in theory, it will attract more UMC types). The neighborhood is not up-in-arms about either of these developments...because that's what people understand when they are here. [/quote]
