-This bill is highly intrusive of local land use authority. A blanket mandate like this does not take into account the nuance and needs of individual localities. -Residential development is the most consumptive of community services and least fiscally beneficial type of development. Rarely does infrastructure keep up with the pace of residential growth and this would be putting undue burden on many localities that already struggle to keep pace. That burden gets transferred to taxpayers, cost of living goes up, quality of life is reduced and the cycle just perpetuates. -What is the plan to ensure that developers even will build what they propose? There are years and years of worth of approved, yet unbuilt homes already in the residential pipeline in my city and many others. -What will the long-term effects be of prioritizing only high-density/multi-family construction now? And lowering standards? -Will people who desire a single-family (or just a higher quality) home in their future have to leave the state of Virginia? -This bill will significantly reduce the rate of home ownership, which used to be a point of pride and indicator of economic stability in a community. -Is it wise to create this intrusive law now just to band-aid a current problem?
