If this bill passes your neighborhood will open season for developers to build trailer parks up to 8.7 units per acre. There is another state representative (Shelly Simonds, District 70) that wants to eliminate parking minimums statewide to “let the market decide” whether the elderly, disabled, and parents with small children should have equal access to housing. Eliminating parking minimums everywhere is basically discrimination against people with mobility issues as it effectively them from being able to live in the housing development. I have an infant and this would be disastrous for new parents. People need to fight tooth and nail to kills these bills. Call your state senators and tell them you are against this nonsense. It does not stop with this bill, the development lobby uses a piecemeal approach to gradually pass bills in each state that overtime will eliminate zoning altogether. This year they will require 8.7 units per acre, next year they will eliminate single family zoning and require quadplex zoning by right, which increases the minimum density everywhere to 34.8 units per acre. The year after that they will override local control by allowing churches to ignore zoning rules for low income housing and allow halfway houses by-right in residential neighborhoods. The end result is that your quaint single family neighborhood neighborhood will be ruined by a developer that buys your neighbors house to build a 34 unit drug rehab center. Good luck Virginia, I hope everyone is looking forward to high density trailer parks with no parking and drug rehab centers next to their house . It will provide easy access and more customers for the new Tysons Corner Casino that Scott Surovell wants to force Fairfax County to approve.

Not OP. But yes, I have. And they fall apart quite quickly. They are not "nice."

OP here my parents grew up a trailer park and they would not want one their neighborhood. You guys on DCUM are clueless about the crime and social problems that they will bring to your community. People that are move out of trailer parks do everything they can do avoid being near them ever again in their life.

Only clueless elites can afford to have luxury beliefs like this. Regular middle class people can't afford to send their kids to good private schools or buy in a safe gated neighborhood. These policies harm regular hard-working people that don't have the resources to buy their way out of problems.

No, not clueless. I've lived in a trailer park and have friends and family who still do. They're people, not "crime and social problems," and I would not mind having one near me.

Florida retirement communities don't count

Fine as long as they pay higher insurance and don't expect the FEMA/government to bail them out for storm damages.

Why do they need to pay higher insurance in this area? My MIL had a mobile home and it was really nice as was teh community.
