Discourage Single Family Housing.

Discourage the construction of single family housing.

The single family home on a private lot is typically the most desired form of housing. The problem is; they are expensive, overly expensive. Single family homes are drastically overpriced due to popularity. They are more expensive to maintain for the homeowner. They are more expensive to service for the community. They have a much larger foot print on the landscape.

Proposal: No new single family residences may be constructed. In order to build new homes, a developer must acquire a minimum 3 existing adjacent single residences and build a minimum 9 home units of which 3 must be of 3 bedrooms or more. New construction may only take place according to a “livable” community plan.
