Just were are the children going to play? In the front yard! How about backyard BBQ's....only for the rich who can afford to live in a different place? Terrible idea.

This will have long term negative effects on development and cause a rise in housing costs.

I can’t begin to understand why Fayetteville would do this!!! I would believe it would hurt the market!! What family wants a single car garage- the logistics of having to move cars around since we aren’t allowed to park in the street would be a nightmare

I am strongly opposed to this proposed ordinance. Limiting the size of the driveway will create congested streets with parked cars. As an alternative, cars could be parked in yards and I know in my neighborhood, that would not go over well.

Continuing to create a better Fayetteville is a great goal. This ordinance needs edits in order to do that. Please consider improvements to this before passing. It’s just not ready and is too stringent on the few builders Fayetteville has left. Take the time to develop it so they can continue to provide development for us.

Creating a negative desirability for Fayetteville is a terrible business model/plan.

People should have the right to design and build houses, including their drive way as it seems most beneficial to their needs. Many families stay together for longer lengths be children move on their own. This ordinance would cause many hardships in this situation.

The city of Fayetteville is getting really out of hand in the direction they are going. We have, sometimes very hard cold winters here, people are not going to be biking year around. We also have people moving here from up North that want 3 car garages for storage since we don't have the basements like they do up north. Think about what your doing to our city by not being people and business friendly Fayetteville.

This ordinance proposal is a counterproductive and overbearing effort to reduce the number of automobiles owned by a family. If passed it will just cause the the second car in the family to be parked on the grass. Then oil will be seep in to the water aquifer. Alternatively, the second car will be parked on the street causing traffic issues (reducing a 2 lane road to a congested 1 lane parking lot) an/or may cause children to be injured. The consequences for this Ordinance are far more harmful than the intended social designed prohibitions.
