Term limits may sound like great ‘democracy’ but they leave communities vulnerable to predatory developers who have state-of-the-art, expert help. The best money can buy. Our community boards have, mostly, the expertise of decades of information that community members have learned on the ins and outs of Land Use and who have institutional memory in their communities. We always need new members, but damn, we better also keep people who know Land Use like the back of their hand.
Unless we want to trust the big money developers to guide us.
