You get alley life, pedestrian streets in some areas, and owners get to offset costs. Town houses pop up like mushrooms in single family neighborhoods and nearby you'll find all those pretty Fischer-Price condos. The zoning code here is the equivalent of a fat man sitting down in the middle of three seats. How about starting an online petition distributed on blogs?

California has mandated that all communities permit second units in single family zones, subject to reasonable standards with no discretionary review. Of course, impact fees still make such cottages are too expensive for most people to built, but at least there are no public hearings and opportunities for NIMBYism.
