If voting mattered it would have been prohibited.

Whats the city name? Hard to know if this is true without knowing the city. Is this just some CPP funded lefty lunatic serving up anti american propaganda?

Can anyone tell me what lobbying is if it isn't outright corruption?

Love to know which city here in the land of Lincoln. Our county - LaSalle - passed ‘county-wide’ zoning over our opposition in two separate ‘advisory’ referendums, almost 20 years ago. Farmland not already platted, can’t be subdivided (with some inheritance exceptions) to less than about 30 acres. To ‘protect’ it from development, lol, as the population was already in decline. Sure kept people from opting out of high-tax municipalities, and building on a couple acres though.
