We don’t need to build affordable housing in this town. If people can’t afford to live here let them live in a place they can afford. I hope our elected officials don’t decide to subsidize housing here in Flagler County. It would have to be put on the backs of taxpayers and the majority of us have moved here because of lower taxes and cost of living. But that has now gone by the wayside as more people move here and make it unaffordable for the rest. I hope this town doesn’t turn into a bureaucratic mess that the blue states created for themselves. Eventually the real estate market will crash as it always does and we will be left overbuilding and empty homes. No one knows when it will happen but it always does as in 2008-2009 anf other time prior to that.
