@@OutstandingOhio Why? What will Copley look like in 100 years? Do you want it to go down the tubes like every other suburb - crowded, noisy and urban?

We don't want things that lead to urbanization, like sidewalks, street lights or multi-unit developments.

Copley wants to stay Copley. We want to stay rural. We don't want high concentrations of people and all of the problems that come with that. We've seen "nice" projects in other communities eventually degrade into slums. I'm speaking for myself. I know I sound unfriendly, but think about it: what can keep Copley Copley? High property taxes. Strict regulation and discouragement of development. Yes. Make development expensive as a barrier to entry, enforce high standards and anything new must be relatively unobtrusive to Copley's greenspace. Everybody else wants to grow, grow, grow. Growth is inevitable, but manage it so that Copley doesn't lose its character.
I apologize for the misspelling of "neighborhood" at the 3:25 mark.
