I drove through the newly paved roads there the other day, and it was clear enough that these were going to be fairly large houses in tiny, tiny lots. As near as I can make out, the houses are anywhere from 2000-3500 sq ft but they're sitting on top of lots about a third of an acre, if that.
First thing I thought was, so what. Then something occurred to me.
Haven't we had build-out limits, requiring new housing to be on lots no smaller than - I don't know - an acre, 3 acres? Aren't there already restrictions in place to keep50-60 new houses to be squeezed into an area the size of a football field?
How did this happen? I think I've heard there are plans to build on all of that former farmland. I thought we already had serious controls to prevent this.
