[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think any property owner should be able to build whatever fits on his property and doesn't spew noise or pollution. Would this mean many in-town SFHs get turned into duplexes or fourplexes? Probably. Get over it. Exclusionary Zoning is anti-minority, pro-sprawl, anti-environmental, anti-business, anti-economy. It should be outlawed just like housing discrimination, pollution, and other antisocial behaviours. [/quote] If you want to live in a libertarian state, I would suggest you move to Somalia. The reason we have zoning is exactly because property owners built and housed people in squalid conditions to maximize their passive income (“rentier capitalism”). Your goal is to reinvent the squalid conditions of 19th and early 20th century slums. [/quote] Just so you're aware, there's a lot of daylight between allowing people to build accessory dwelling units on their property and Somalia.[/quote]
