Topic title is misleading. Several people, including Dave Chapelle, were against the project.

Figures a commie wouldn't care about residents having the right to decide what kind of neighborhood they want to live in.

I also like how you just spent a week bragging about being a guest in a gated community and experiencing affluence and how great it was. Rules for thee, eh?

On a 2-2 vote, there were people for it and people against it. I just don't really get why Dave Chapelle needs to personally throw his weight around on this matter, literally threatening to pull his businesses over it

Except he isn't.

Other villagers cited concerns with traffic flow, problems with a proposed homeowners association and issues with water management, but several villagers said they also felt that council had not included them in the process with Oberer.

One resident, Matthew Kirk, a member of the citizens board who worked on the project, said he was initially excited but his view later soured. He argued that the plan was really two projects rather than one: a single-family home development next to a condo development.

I think its important to kind of understand the framing and also understand how those products attract different homebuyers, Kirk said.

Nice try, tho

I deal with a bunch of different city councils on a routine basis, and no matter what you want to build in the town, people will be pissed about it. The #1 thing that get people the most pissed off though is an apartment complex or condo building, the public comments for those things are insane. They would rather have an oil and gas well pad in their neighborhood than an apartment building lol

I don't see why anyone would be against affordable housing in Yellow Springs unless they're just rich assholes. I live about 10 minutes away from Yellow Springs and I go to town all the time during the summer. It's a nice, hippy artsy town to visit. However, it's crazy expensive to live in Yellow Springs comfortably. There's no real middle ground. You're either living in extremely shitty housing and barely scraping by or you're living in a very nice house while well off. The homeless population is very noticeable. You'll always see people sleeping on the streets at night because they don't have anywhere to go. You'll always see people living out of their car or van. There's an old lady who has a dozen or so homeless people living with her at all times of the year. Some of them live in the house while the rest camp in her backyard.

Also, for those of you who don't know, Chappelle is basically treated like a king in Yellow Springs. A lot of the townsfolk love him and will always side with him despite some of the recent controversy surrounding him. Plenty of more I could say about Yellow Springs and Chappelle's history with this town. Just ask if anyone has questions.

So you're saying someone who is heavily invested in the town and brings jobs/businesses should not have a say in its development...why?

Hate people better off than you that much? Grow up, this is how the world works.

You probably might not know, but what is Chappelle's reasoning to be against the affording housing initiative?.... other than being a "rich asshole".

Ohio is 81.3% white so maybe Dave just wasnt that thrilled about providing low income housing inconsistently?

When it goes to minorities, low income housing doesnt often happen.

You ever lived in or near a project? It's...not great after a year or two, and *will* tank the neighboring property values. But fuck those people for having homes and not wanting to live near a project I guess

Since he's opening up a comedy club and a restaurant in town, he'd probably prefer a certain type of people to frequent his new establishments but that's just a guess. I'm also not surprised he threatened to pull his business out of town if the initiative went through. He's made it no secret that he feels like he saved Yellow Springs from falling into irrelevancy.

As for some of the more lower class citizens being against this initiative, I can't say I'm surprised. Yellow Springs is, how do I put, a very backwards town in some ways. You'll see Black Lives Matter signs, George Floyd signs, and so on posted everywhere yet plenty of the townspeople are racist against blacks speaking from my own experience. They really don't want more lower class blacks from the Springfield, Ohio or Dayton, Ohio area to be moving in.

Dave Chapelle and his family are considered to be "some of the good ones who keep to themselves" in town.
