If this is applicable in the case you refer to, where the zoning sounds to already be multi-family or high density, there may be plans that could be worse, much worse. Plus your planning laws may require a 'Conditional Use', or whatever you call it, to approve a plan that is considerably below the zoning. ( loss of revenue, school planning, roads, etc.--all those items that affect density). My understanding of ‘workforce’ housing is that it applies to detached housing, not multi-family units.

Uh ... yeah ... I think I'll not say a lot. But I will agree with you - holier than thou, Mary 'do nothing' Lazich is busy pontificating. Someone please - run against this political boob. She so deserves to retire. She see's a mob form and leaps in front of it - that's not really what we call leadership ... is it? I’m not going to say a whole lot.

It's been less apparent in Milwaukee, where segregation is more of an issue than most cities.
