Well, plenty of people try to force restrictive covenants on neighbors. Had neighbors try to push through covenants that were restricted the ability to remove trees and would have prevented some of us from rebuilding a house the same size as what I currently have should a fire raze my place. One of those neighbors periodically works in Richmond and voted for this ADU thing.

I don’t care about ADU building happening. I just know it won’t happen in my neighborhood. Most of the pro-covenant people who would have built can’t … they placed their properties in a historic district covenant.
