If you can see the "show contact info" dropdown below, I follow you. If you want me to, ask and I'll think about it.


the urban planners

  • access to plenty of tools that let you think ahead
  • all building actions must be done through [lobbying], [schmoozing], or working with community organizations
    • often a combination, usually in ways that will make your stomach turn, if you want to truly realize your plans...

the sitting city government (bipartisan deadlock)

  • does not have the vocabulary to actually understand anything with the plans outside of aesthetics
  • limited budget based on a complex formula of public opinion and standing funds, can work with stakeholders to try and t[etris the budget]
  • construction companies may be encouraged through bribes and illegal contact preferencing
  • takes damage from negative public opinion
  • if the housing movement is too disgruntled they may depose you with force. It won't work, but just imagine the PR hit

the nimbys

  • Fortress Peidmont
  • turtling strategy
  • plenty of money to run smear campaigns with
  • [vocal minority]
  • Save Our Scenic Sightlines (of the sewage treatment plant)

etc
