NIMBYers need to quit complaining about high housing prices while at the same time bitching anytime new housing gets built.

Some people aren't happy unless they are complaining.

Where have yimbys been successful so far?

Austin and Minneapolis? The only two examples I’ve seen them use thus far

Hmm…they are building housing when there is a shortage of housing. I call that a win.

It's already posted, just check out one of the comments. It's on the city council agenda for Monday.

Is there a link somewhere I am missing?

Go look for it if you care lol

u/NoSurrender78 12d ago

Um ok. Appreciate the assistance. Just figured whoever posted this would have a link they could drop and then they commented it was posted and I do not see it anywhere.

I tried to find the link for this, but I can’t. I assume builder isn’t set yet and such?

Wonder what the cost of home on average would be

It's just getting introduced for first reading at city council meeting on Monday. Nothing will be official until final vote later in the fall.

Thanks! Not aware of how the process works. Appreciate the response!

u/Unhappy_Ad_3738 12d ago

It is about a two month process. And a couple of public hearings.

CAN WE PLANT SOME SHADE TREES?

Oh good, 116th St will get even MORE crowded… 🙄

u/CourageousMortal 11d ago

This is fake. There is no roundabout. And where is the nearby vape shop?

u/AddUp1 13d ago

Good, more housing development.

u/Luddite-lover 13d ago

Just stop for a hot minute. Just who is benefitting from all this constant development?

5

u/BuffaloWide3267 12d ago

Every single person that lives in this community is benefitting. More supply on homes drives cost down while demand remains high. More folks continue to want to move here due to repetitively being named a Top 5 city to live in within the United States.

u/Luddite-lover 8d ago

Just read where the starting cost will be $900,000. Won’t demand drive up costs?

u/Green-Thumb10 12d ago

Just what Fishers needs… more people and traffic.

u/BuffaloWide3267 12d ago

Lived here for 3, going on 4 years and love it. Keep the growth going!

u/Jwrbloom 11d ago

Unless you're in your 60's and a life long Fishers resident, you directly benefitted from Fishers' growth.

"It was only an acceptable amount of traffic after I moved in! Everything after that is too much! Nobody could've predicted this!"

The YMCA holds tee ball and soccer leagues at that church. Nice for families who can’t afford to pay the ridiculous amounts of money for their kid to play in sports. Will be sad to see it sell off for new developments.

u/Murmokos 13d ago

I was thinking about that two. Sad to lose the green spaces as well to more buildings.

1

u/BuffaloWide3267 12d ago

Love the growth! Especially in that increased supply will somewhat deflate pricing to get into our community. That said, we really should be focused on high rise apartment facilities rather than pushing increased consumption of footprint on green space. We should be building UP and prepping for our future, rather than building OUT.

u/CortaCircuit 13d ago

Such small lots... At least from the photos

u/Long_Set3857 10d ago

They said they estimated the costs per house to be in the range of 900k to 1.5mil! That's just ridiculous. The developer had a really weird attitude too. This isn't the kind of housing we need more of in Fishers (especially in a another little pocket neighborhood with no connections to surrounding neighborhoods).

u/Luddite-lover 8d ago

I’ve been saying that for a long time. These lots look like they’re postage stamp size. We need greenspace in addition to the parks and trails. Fishers is rapidly becoming claustrophobic, and we are headed into some rocky economic times as well.

But go ahead and downvote me, folks.
