  • Require all short-term rental (vacation rental) owners to add at least one permanent affordable housing unit in order to receive approval.

  • Read- The Population Bomb
    40 yrs.ahead of the times now still waiting to be addressed..yet now its too late! Well not entirely..yet we had endless wake up calls, yet we did nothing but make more impediments

  • Joe L. - Birth rate stats are notoriously unreliably..just imagine say today in parts of war torn country's there will be hundreds of births daily, at or in war torn community settings with no census.. Birth keeping stats are a 1st world phenomenon..not not so in most of the world.

  • There's a brand new article in today's Wall Street Journal that cites further evidence of declining birth rates, even in less developed countries. I will continue to trust in the evidence that we do have, rather than doubt that evidence simply because it is not complete. Thanks!
