[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think MMH is going to tear up the community in Arlington. County may have gotten their way but it’s not a good look when there is so much infighting within the community.

Location will keep Arlington desirable to an extent but there will a a lot of bad blood due to MMH. I live one town over in McLean, this is just my reading, of course I could be wrong . We pass through N Arlington many times on our way to restaurants and such and I see plenty of opposition to MMH via yard signs. I guess we shall see how this shakes out.[/quote]

You don't have to go to Arlington, Missing Middle is coming to McLean. The NoVA YIMBYs have been organizing in Fairfax County, and the large lots in McLean are well within their sights.  The same chaotic mess that happened in Arlington is headed for Fairfax County and Alexandria City.  [/quote]

McLean won’t go down without a fight, a lot of us are Democrats but no bleeding heart liberals. Frankly, at local level it’s time to consider republican candidates.[/quote]

McLean has very little influence in county government. It’s two zip codes in a county with over a million and the only local officials from McLean likely to be elected this fall are two Democrats - Jimmy Bierman and Rip Sullivan.  Bierman would sell out McLean overnight if it would get the Washington Post to call him “progressive,” and Sullivan is in the state legislature and has no say over local zoning. [/quote]

Not April Fools but today is the date for the LA mansion tax to be in effect.  Can FX, MoCo, ARL enact such transfer taxes?  That's local in LA ?  NYC has the mansion tax floor at 1m-that's on sale price not net to seller https://www.silive.com/news/2023/03/what-is-the-mansion-tax-and-why-do-you-need-to-know-about-it-when-buying-a-nyc-home.html
