We have an extra terror here = Lawyers.
If the council pass a bylaw that restricts development in any way they are threatened with a lawsuit where even if they won it would cost our small town $$$$ to defend itself. And whenever they pass a bylaw that might allow any development they get hit by a threat of an environmental objections that would take years and cost $$$$.
The result is that nothing has happened for years - we might have invented the perfect form of government.
