[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the one who asked if any lawsuits have been filed yet.

A lawsuit was filed against the exact same BS in arlington and the homeowners prevailed:

I'm praying that happens here.[/quote]

I don't get this. If you don't want to live near anyone, move to Carroll county.[/quote]

This is very circular reasoning. Where are people that need quiet neighborhoods supposed to live if no where is safe from high density development. You guys want to eliminate single family neighborhoods everywhere, but have the nerve to tell everyone else they should just move. [/quote]

ZTA 25-02 doesn't allow high density development, nor does it apply everywhere.

You really shouldn't be shocked by the prospect of townhomes and small apartment buildings directly on major, multi-lane roads- especially downcounty.

If your goal is a single family home with minimal neighbors, buying a home with a large lot on Carroll County is the best way to do that.[/quote]

“Townhomes and small apartment buildings.” This bill is so good you can’t stop lying about it. [/quote]

I wouldn't say it's good, although it's better than nothing. It is far too limited. The new moderate-density options should have extended to lots within 500 feet of the major road, not just those directly on it.[/quote]

It’s funny you could have had a much more sweeping and more transit oriented ZTA five years ago or so but Andrew Friedson and Hans Riemer killed it even though it wasn’t nearly as controversial as this one. Why was that?[/quote]

Re-election?[/quote]
