Consider that homes could be larger, but would require a public hearing for major renovations. This would certainly began to be a community that worked together as if they are our property rights as a community.

Y...This is an argument that I find very confusing. Your property rights are very much impacted by zoning of all kinds from noise, to construction, to use of your property. I do not know if you live in Oakhurst but our properties generally have less than 20 feet between them. When I first moved in my home I never saw my neighbors but I knew their dog's names because I could hear them calling and yelling at them next door. Everything my neighbor does to their property impacts my property. How do I protect my property rights? <BR/><BR/>If the houses on either side of me are poorly renovated it deeply affects my investment. When my neighbor decided to build a retaining wall in their back yard it impacted the run-off to my property. When my neighbor purchased a diesel engine truck it impacted my ability to sleep through their 5am work schedule. This sounds like more of a rant against my neighbor that I intend, because I love my neighbors. But it illustrates that we as a community must work together to develop zoning or zoning overlays that protect each others property rights and quit being so selfish to only be concerned about our own property rights.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4990818184521452285.post-23352366309729856012007-08-20T17:41:00.000-05:002007-08-20T17:41:00.000-05:00I am a firm believer in property rights and I simp...I am a firm believer in property rights and I simply do not want you or anyone to remove any of those property rights.
