• It takes away traditional rights of communities.

• It promotes sprawl, overdevelopment and high-cost housing.


• It sabotages local planning for open space,affordable housing,
and traffic reduction.

• It bypasses democratic processes and legislative accountability.


• It makes it difficult for communities to acquire land needed
for open space and affordable housing.

• The future of public open space should be determined with
full participation of the public.
