Please reconsider this - the permanent loss of our good agricultural land due to more housing and sprawl is not the answer. We need to protect our environment and agricultural lands in order to survive. Allowing houses to be built all over prime farm land will have a cascading impact as farmers then would have to farm marginal land which is currently usually wetlands or forests, both of which are important carbon sinks and wildlife habitat. None of this make sense ecologically and with the climate future we are facing it makes even less sense. Use your currently available lands and be smarter about where to expand urban areas. We can’t sustain single family homes on lots in the country side. That is not the kind of housing we need.
