FuturEBR, the city’s land use plan adopted in 2011, tried to address some of the problems planners have long recognized are caused by gated communities—traffic congestion, economic segregation, loss of a sense of community—by calling for greater connectivity in new subdivisions. But there hasn’t been any serious move to limit or ban communities with limited access, and there is clearly no political will to do so.
She is clearly one of those Progs who thinks SHE knows BETTER what to do with your property than you do. These folks actually think it is OK to tell you what you can or can't do to be ALLOWED to build your home in a certain spot that you purchased. Same folks that want to force developers to put projects ("affordable housing") in the midst of anything nice they develop.

Absolutely. Look, I understand that sometimes you have to take control of a servitude for the greater good of the community, i.e. widening roads. However, to pass off one's concern for the impact to their property value as a "provincial attitude" is about as dismissive and condescending as you can get. This is why these people are becoming hated more and more everyday.
The biggest issue with modern "progressivism" is that it has no foundation in anything other than the group think of the time and collectivism which is why it's doomed for failure and will inevitably consume itself.

Umm, I'm pretty sure this is precisely what people are paying for in a gated community.
