I have no problem with "cluster development"jrc. It has its place. My concern is that people stop feeling like they can't do anything about the future space we, and our chidren are going to dwell in. The people in Vermont put their collective feet down over 30 years ago and said enough ! Enough sprawl, enough billboards, enough with the endless strip malls. They decided that they did not want to live in an "endless NJ cityscape", or have a southern NH crop up around them.

And so.....they stopped it. That's why Vermont & NH look less and less alike as the years go by.
