can you name one place where your vision has worked? I can name areas where it has not: anywhere rural where people get to do whatever they want. If we don't have some level of zoning and code, we devolve. Period.
99 percent of people are not capable of absolute freedom... simply because they have no consideration for others. So, I don't know what type of utopia you think is feasible with total freedom. But humanity would suffer.
I am not a planning nazi. I don't like the idea of boundaries. My only point was that a well-designed and planned community would foster neighborhoods, community, outdoor interaction, etc.
nope, not me... never heard of Downtown Westminster.
But to your points: of course I was exaggerating about 99 percent not being able to handle freedom. The truth is that just like absolute power corrupts absolutely, absolute freedom will always devolve to the weakest link among those who are free. That's why we have laws and LEO. Basic civility requires infrastructure, which includes everything from plumbing infrastructure to police.
Finding the right balance between a well-designed/planned community and the need to preserve freedom (and not allow encroachments on the freedom over time) is the job of patriots.
edit: by the way... I have never said that what they are planning with the 15 minute city of control is good, and in fact it should be stopped... just say no.
Westminster is pushing 15 min city? Amazing. Hadn’t heard of this though not surprised a sprawl hellhole in shithole Colorado is working towards it.
My first house was in WM many years ago.
Golden is working to be Boulder. Golden used to be a great little town and is now a woke crap hole wanting to be inclusive in the same way Boulder is. Trash. Homeless. Pay for parking. Big city woke shit that spoils everything.
