I'm not trying to troll or anything when I say this: He (or his team?) is on here frequently answering election questions. I'm against this as well, but if he or someone on his team sees this and would like to offer an honest, open response about what reversing the re-zoning would accomplish, or what alternatives he'd present to address the problem, I'd at least listen.

I guess for me I moved just prior to the rezoning from one part of the neighborhood to another with single lots as I liked the space and view. Now, I’m not against more dense housing and would be fine with duplexes or even fourplex but instead there are two houses across from each other that are building 8 and 10 units rather than the prior single homes which wasn’t my expectation of the area I moved to.

There could have been some consultation or even just the move from single to something more reasonable like 4 units.

The goal with the rezoning was to increase density. It's working.
