I think this is actually the bigger issue than this being just what Rollin Stanley says. I view home builders associations the same way I view the taxi cab associations. It's pretty obvious based on what's gone on over the past decades that clearly both of these groups have enjoyed undue and possibly maybe even a corrupt influence over city politicians in the past and only now are they having that curtailed. Hence why every other week there's an article in the local news about them having a cow about changes.
