A moratorium on any construction within the city of Madison?
Tonight, the Madison Plan Commission will hold a public hearing on their newest idea to limit construction and growth within the hallowed walls known as the city of Madison.
The idea known as the creation of "Neighborhood Conservation Districts" is a bad one! If passed in it's current form it will allow a group of neighbors to create what's know as "Neighborhood Conservation Districts" in which the "district" will have the ability to dictate such building items such as size and scale, look and features, etc....
Don't get me wrong. I'm a huge proponent of planning and development done is a way to maintain an integrity of an area. What worries me most is we will be giving that ability to legislate or dictate away from the professionals on our city planning and development staff and dropping it into the hands of untrained neighbors.
Please, please, please contact your city Madison Common Council member to get more information or voice you opinion on this.
