  • The lawsuit argued that the city council’s policy didn’t maintain neutrality because it allowed certain flags — like the U.S. and state flags, prisoner-of-war flags and flags that “represent the international character” of residents — while banning other types of flags – like political, religious, and racial flags.

    If that claim is accurate it is a selective ban. Allowing only government flags on government flagpoles could be reasonable. But then they should still ban international flags, and if the POW flag is not a government thing that as well.


















  • Some issues are solvable with better architecture but developers don’t make money on it, many only build for the landlords. Stuff like good soundproofing between separate units, both a lift and multiple staircases in bigger buildings, visual variation between buildings or parts of buildings so people don’t get lost or stir crazy, outdoor spaces with both vegetation and useable areas.

    Depends on your city, but many need more medium-density, not go straight from terraced housing to seven floor buildings.
