[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No this not good policy this is a giveaway to developers.

I’m not sure why you think a developer won’t buy four lots and put a 5-8 story condo building on a small residential street in a desirable area which will overcrowd schools and traffic and yes will diminish quality of life for everyone.

This is not the way to solve the housing crisis.  Boomers are sitting on tons of sfh and could easily be persuaded to downsize with tax/inheritance incentives.

Interesting that the governor carved out an exception for his own historic neighborhood Guilford which has the exact low density and suburban feel he is eliminating for others.  As usual the ultra wealthy sell out the below class.  They will send their kids to private school and enjoy their nice lawns and parks while everyone is packed in like sardines.  The people proposing this are never living in condos but they expect everyone else to. [/quote]

This bill doesn't allow that. It allows townhomes.

Developers don't need density to make money. They can already flip homes or buy tear-downs. At least with density we end up with more homes for more people.[/quote]

You end up with undesirable homes because no one wants to live there. Then you lose your tax base. Everyone who is honest with themselves knows that people who can afford nice SFH will not remain around “density”, as illustrated by these comments on Bowie.
