Anchorage Assembly Takes Up Title 21, Accepting Public Comment
Pay attention, folks. If you are concerned with the government telling you what you can and cannot do with your private property, then you must comment on the Title 21 code being considered by the Anchorage Assembly. If you think the government should be able to tell you how many windows you can have on the street facing side of your house, then don’t comment. If you think the government should be able to tell you how many bushes and trees you should have in your yard, then don’t comment. If you think the government should be able to tell you that you have to have a covered front porch, then don’t comment.
If you have saved enough of your hard earned money to finally move out of rental housing and now want to build a new home to your design specifications, then don’t comment. If you want the government to tell you where and what type of sidewalk you must have, then don’t comment. If you want the government to tell you how large your garage can be, then don’t comment.
If you believe that a small active segment (the spandex crowd) of our population should be able to tell you what is “aesthetic”, then don’t comment. If you believe in centralized planning by academic urban planners, then don’t comment.
If you believe you own your property and the government should butt out with its overreaching regulations, then do comment. If you believe low income housing will be even more expensive and crowd out the 99%, then do comment.
