As a former farmer I strongly feel that farmers are the best stewards of their land. They know every square inch of their land and would never use fertile land to build or sever a lot. Allowing lots will help to keep the family farms alive and moving forward. Read more

I, along with many others I am sure, urge you to find a way to make tiny homes legal in all municipalities. With house prices out of reach for many people, this would be a way to put home ownership back within their reach. Read more
