[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GGW’s failing is that no developer ever said “I’m going to build a whole bunch of houses so that prices go down and I don’t make too much money.” Developers want less regulation so that they have to negotiate less frequently and so that they’re not on the hook to pay for infrastructure improvements needed by their projects. This way they can boost profit margins. Never will the savings be passed onto customers. [/quote] That’s not true! Smart Growth says that fewer regulations, like eliminating parking requirements, will bring more affordable housing. How dare you impugn the development community by suggesting that they are simply pocketing the savings. That’s not very welcoming.[/quote] I truly cannot imagine anybody thinking that this is a witty or clever takedown.[/quote] Yet, it’s actually quite true. It’s a deregulation movement that also wants to remove fire codes, both for buildings and for road designs to be wide enough to accommodate ladder trucks. [/quote]
