The down zoning issue has only just started in Wicomico County. The quick point is we do not need more government in our lives and having it seizing more control over our property. The people that always know better often don't understand things in holistic and broader view. They are so narrow in their focus and where they throw blame.
A good example is this, for years experts have been trying to control everything in the waterways of Maryland. The DNR has established too much authority over our right to hunt, harvest and collect the abundant offerings of our lands. They put so many restrictions on catching Rock Fish that it has created an unbalance in the Bay especially in the struggling crab population. The over management of Maryland Government has crippled the commercial water industry.
They point to Eastern Shore farmers as the cause of the pollution in the bay and her tributaries when the majority of pollution comes from Baltimore, Philadelphia, and the Potomac River. Government controlled entities are the reason the Potomac River is in the situation it is in today. There is no accountability because they act as if they are above the law.
Yet, the come hithers rail about the need to keep a rural aspect to the Eastern Shore. If there were not so many come hithers we would not be turning into a metropolis. We welcome all those who wish to make a life here but understand we must change with the times in a responsible manner. We must do it without infringing on the rights of property owners big and small.
There will definitely be opposition to this. This is just a communistic way of stealing people properties by causing it to be devalued.
