Should government regulate starter castles?
In a suburb of Salt Lake City, someone who owns a 5,765-square-foot home is angry because their neighbor is building an 11,258-square-foot home that is just ten feet from their property boundary. The homes are on lots of about two-thirds of an acre.
In response, the city in which they live has passed an ordinance requiring that starter castles have graduated heights. At ten feet from a property boundary, the home can be no more than 15 feet tall. The second story must be recessed back from that by ten more feet (I'm guessing; the article doesn't say).
Why can't everyone be happy living in a 700-square-foot apartment on a transit line?
