[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Listening in to the Council session now. This is extremely troubling.
The session will be saved if you cannot view live:

What do you find troubling?[/quote]

I also listened in.
If there was a focus on converting commercial to multifamily homes, townhomes communities along River Road, this is ok.
But there is a disruption in established single family neighborhoods with mention of:
- Eliminating set backs and parking rules, in neighborhoods that already lack driveways
- Determining of lots to be converted to multifamily units
- Incentives for conversion of single family homes to multifamily units

I personally find this negative

See the lying YIMBYs were trying to confuse people and pretend that they county is not changing setbacks. They [b]definitely are planning on this[/b] and it will remove any protections mitigate community impact. [/quote]

I support this proposal and would likely qualify under your definition of "YIMBY."  I have not had a chance to watch the video, but am very curious what was actually said in the "mention" of setbacks.  Quite literally everything I have seen from the County on this, including what is written in the proposal itself is that setbacks will be retained.  If in fact setback requirements will be altered, I would agree with you that would be counter to what has been explained to date and it would upset me.

However "mentioning" setbacks is not the same as saying that the proposal would do away with setbacks. [/quote]

Watch the video. They say setbacks would be eliminated. Take note about what they say about parking, too.[/quote]
