Hello,

As a young adult with a growing family who’d like to help support his father with his farming operations I very much support your proposal to allow farmers to build on their land. We have a vacant lot that once had a farm house on it but because of the rules I cannot sever it to build. I can build. And if there was a house still standing I could sever. I cannot however sever to build which has been incredible frustrating for our family seeing as thought the land is not farmable and serves no other purpose.

Giving us the ability to sever and build would give me a chance to help on our family farm, develop land that can only be used for a house, and selfishly it would help me actually afford a house for my family.

Thank you. I hope everything gets passed and action soon happens. As a young family, both partners with great paying jobs but still not able to afford a house, we need this.
