land is zoned for particular uses for a reason (lack of utilities, traffic management, etc.) and it's the government's job to enforce these expectations for the neighbors and community.
imagine buying a rural land to get away from the city bustle and a developer builds high density apartment next to your place. or buying an apartment in the city only for someone to demolish blocks around you and turn it into farmland so you are not as conveniently close to shops and facilities.
- irae 5y agoIf the actual goal is to keep it "rural" or "greener" etc, living small, as long as they don't demand anything extra, as long as the outside is kept as it was meant to be, why go as far as punish the person? Sometimes rules are written too narrow and need adjustment. Following it blindly is not necessarily serving society optimally. If the actual goal is to have places people can garden, and have a large span of green land in that region, the single student living there is still following the objetive in spirit. In my opinion punishing would be going to far and serving no or little purpose for the community.
