Time to loosen zoning restrictions and say no to NIMBYs Ms. Mayor. *

Despite earning around $90,000 a year between her work as mayor, regional councillor and with the local electric utility, she says she can’t afford to buy a home in the municipality she leads.

* yeah, she’s still paying off student loans, and I don’t know what zoning restrictions are like in her community. But still.

    Salonen supports last month’s announcement to build 10,000 affordable and attainable homes in the region by 2030.

      Yeah, seems like the poster didn’t read the actual article, either

      That’s a project from Habitat for Humanity.

      Vocalizing support for someone else’s project is a far cry from starting your own projects.

      Maybe she is doing something, I don’t know, but the example you gave isn’t a good one.

      Pretty much every city in the country needs like ten times that much before things’ll start getting better.

      All these proposals are like trying to fight a forest fire with a squirt gun.
