If it were up to the current residents there’d never be any development after their property was built. Welcome to NIMBYism. What are the really big negatives of a mixed use density project.
1) Traffic
2) Traffic
3) Traffic
4) Low income housing requirements (aka. I support affordable housing as far away as possible from my million+ dollar property)[/quote]
Just for the record, I see no indication that One Paseo will include low income housing – and I haven’t heard that topic raised, so I don’t think that is really on the table. Is your comment based on some information that you have, or just garden variety cynicism? My understanding is that there has been Sec. 8 housing in CV for a long time – no one really pays any attention.
Traffic is the main concern for everyone, but I have a problem with ad hoc modifications of the zoning laws and ordinances (which are passed by the legislature). I think it sets a bad precedent for everyone who has relied on the zoning in their area. The city can always increase tax revenue by permitting high income businesses to operate where they weren’t originally zoned to be – whether that’s in CV or next door to anybody.
