We oppose allowing more multi-family homes because
multi-story buildings cast shadows.

+
| We oppose allowing more multi-family homes to preserve large trees on residential lots. |
|
We oppose allowing more micro-housing to preserve
single-family homes for families.
|

|
Renting individual rooms in a single-family house is a
great option for groups of young singles.
|
|
We must
preserve single-family homes as ownership opportunities.
|
+
|
Single-family
homes are great because twenty percent of them are rentals.
|
|
I support zoning that bans duplexes and triplexes, even at
the same size as single-family homes.
|
+
|
I encourage 2-3 families to co-buy a single-family home
together if they can’t afford one on their own.
|
|
We’re
concerned about renters not taking as much care of where they live as owners
would.
|
+
|
When
owners let older single-family homes get rundown they become affordable
rental housing.
|
|
We oppose allowing multi-family homes in single family
zones because it’s important to maintain the supply of single-family detached
homes.
|
+
|
We oppose allowing lots two or tree times as large as
those many older homes sit on to be subdivided in order to build new
single-family detached homes.
|
|
The
equity in my single-family home doesn’t matter, because I just want to live
here and never want to move.
|
+
|
I
oppose allowing multi-family homes near my single-family home because their
proximity might reduce its value.
|
|
We must have lots of single-family zoning because yards
and gardens are among the most important things for families to have.
|
+
|
Having lots of single-family zoning isn’t a problem
because families who can’t afford to live in it can live in high-rises along
freeways.
|
|
It’s
mean to describe single-family zoning as “exclusionary.”
|
+
|
If
people can’t afford a single-family home here, they should just go elsewhere.
|
|
New homes must be required to have off-street parking on
the property.
|
+
|
My home does not have off-street parking on the property.
|
|
We’re
mad as hell traffic has made travel by car subject to unpredictable delays.
|
+
|
“Frequent
bus service” must be defined as 100% predictable arrival times.
|
|
We must charge developers impact fees to fix [whatever –
e.g., sewers] to mitigate the impact of growth.
|
+
|
[Whatever – e.g., sewers] has been a problem for decades,
so we can’t accommodate any new growth.
|
|
Housing
prices are being inflated by foreign speculators who never intend to live
here.
|
+
|
Traffic
is terrible, busses are full, and “Tech Bros” are overrunning the
neighborhood.
|
|
My difficulty finding street parking should be treated as
a negative externality caused by property developers, even though they aren’t
the ones doing the parking.
|
+
|
My windfall home equity shouldn’t be treated as a positive
externality caused by the tech industry, even though its mine and I didn’t
found Amazon.
