They are just trying to use their property as they see fit.

What you are saying is this: You can own all the land you
want around me, you just can't do anything with it.


Im not saying it, its our system. There are zoning rules that govern what
you can and can not do with your land. In general, if he has a home, what
other home owners do to their land will not affect him much. But when
you mix zones, then businesses can do things home owners dont like, and
vice versa. This is no different.

It happened in my neighborhood. But thats because my city is silly and
still has no city development plan, so its haphazard zoning...
