Affordable housing is the main argument I’m seeing for why I should vote yes and for why I’m such an asshole for not wanting to vote yes.

Nah not what I meant. I like the trees around the park more than I would like a bunch of apartment buildings.

Weird and dishonest that you’re talking as though the corporate owned housing is not the main thing for this ballot question.
Like you know why it sucks but wanna pretend like that’s not gonna be a big part of the development, even though the corporate-owned housing is, again, the whole reason we’re voting on it.

Developers: want to make money
You: how is that greedy???
Home owners: we don’t want the park ruined by a bunch of apartment buildings
You: this is greed.

Kind of dishonest to frame it like this would help those without housing. Homeless people are not going to be living in any boutique apartments across from sequiota park.
I get the logic of freeing up cheaper units, but that’s just supply-side economics that can also justify other awful things.

You’re not even arguing against anything I said. I told you it was dishonest to act like the apartment buildings aren’t the main thing in this proposed development plan.
Now you’re just ranting about nimbys.
