They should not be able to make these laws. They take away a cities right to control zoning for residential properties leading to a high density hell hole.

>Lafayette’s mayor, JD Mangat, can’t afford a house in the city he leads. On a salary as a middle school social studies teacher, home prices in the Boulder County city of 30,000 are out of reach for the 29-year-old Lafayette native. “I live at home with my parents,” he said. “None of my friends growing up still live in Lafayette.” Yet, when it comes to a cluster of housing bills lawmakers passed last year — all designed to abate the astronomical price of housing in Colorado — Mangat is firmly opposed. “It would eliminate city standards and put in place state standards,” the mayor said. “This is going to have really detrimental impacts on Lafayette. This approach is insane.” The laws, two of which go into effect on Monday, reached into matters that previously were local decisions. They removed home occupancy limits, will allow for accessory dwelling units on single-family lots, will limit parking requirements in transit corridors and prodded cities to increase housing density in those transit-rich areas. The laws largely apply only to Front Range cities.
