Especially when I see what's being done to Portland neighborhoods where out of state developers are razing single family homes and building huge multi-dwellings, ruining the character of the neighborhoods bit by bit.

Time for the city planners to be IMPRESSED by the idea of limited growth instead of what's currently going on.
