[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MoCo has always given developers everything they want. Will never change. Lots of people voted for Elrich over Blair in the hopes that the pro-development tendencies would be kept somewhat in check, but I'm not sure that it's made any difference.[/quote] No, MoCo has always given land use lawyers what they want: Lengthy planning approvals and slow permitting processes. You never hear the MoCo YIMBYs lobbying to change these things because the land use lawyers are major funders of the local YIMBY groups. You don’t see the council pushing to change it because the land use lawyers donate to their campaigns. We could have had so much more housing in the past 20 years if the planning process had fewer steps and permitting happened faster. [/quote] It’s astounding how many YIMBY real estate agents there are out there.[/quote]
