I'm surprised Team Blue wants to limit housing development. Gotta keep those prices unaffordable to anyone without millions of dollars I guess

City knew what they were doing. They are changing the neighborhood on purpose. How many large duplexes does it take to inflate those taxes where those families have to move?

Gentrification? The permit department knew the changes and skirted them?

Soon dallas wont have any affordable housing. These duplexes are probaly getting rented out for $3500.00 a month.
