PROP 207

[mjfritz]

I can tell you that the Phoenix Police & Fire are opposed to it.
It removes many local ordinances of public safety and places them in the hands of high powered lobbyist and special interests groups at the state level.

I've heard that, environmentally, if passed it will be more difficult to enforce laws that limit irresponsible development.

Lastly, I've heard that if passed it can be damaging to the limits of communities; such as historic neighborhoods. It was explained that governments can be forced to pay speculators for alleged value losses or waive zoning laws and rules for them specifically. Meaning, communities loose the battle against density control, preservation of historic buildings, future neighborhood preservation codes, neighborhood business hours or types of businesses, new building heights, etc.

I guess it's a real blow to us tax payers.
That's all I've heard.
