"The guidelines allow developers to build high-density market-rate multifamily housing “as of right” [....] — with no state requirement for affordability, livability, or sustainability and no protection for current residents." https://t.co/O3kKHhiy4L

"A gift to developers, the guidelines’ only apparent goal is housing production — with no protection for current residents and no responsibility for achieving a livable, sustainable, and affordable result."
