Editorial: The height of hypocrisy | www.mypalmbeachpost.com

Comes this now from Andrew Marra. Click title for link.

We opposed the vote on new height limits in Lake Worth’s downtown, which we think needlessly discouraged investment in the city without doing much to preserve the city’s character. Lake Worth already had height limits downtown, and the area affected by the vote – the portion east of Federal Highway – had several buildings higher than the new 45-foot limit being proposed.
But while we didn’t like the vote’s outcome, we really don’t like Tallahassee’s decree that such votes are no longer permitted. Stifling citizens’ voices on these issues leaves only the voice of elected officials susceptible to special interests. Kind of like state legislators.

And the printed version of the paper has a bold caption within the op-ed that says in bold "Tallahassee thwarts voter cap on tall buildings" - so, just what is a "tall" building. A 45 foot building isn't tall, but a 65 foot one is? I guess we need to ask Jo-Ann and Laurel, they would know.
