I'd like to know where all these people in opposition to zoning live.
I've never lived anyplace that wasn't zoned. That is why I don't have a Wal Mart in my driveway. I've covered city council meetings for years and hear discussions all the time about how a business will affect an area. LA is just being more public about it, but this kind of thing happens all the time. Many cities have banned new big box construction. Is that mommy government?
LA hasn't banned junk food, they've banned new construction of fast food restaurants. They've decided there are more usefull businesses for that particular area, like grocery stores, or prisons.
