26. Lawn and Order: Zoning Laws and the Balance of Individual Liberty and Community Harmony

1 h 2 min

The war on uncut lawns and drabby clothes lines is being waged across great cities and small towns alike! But is it reasonable to place limits on how one can use their own property when they live in neighborhoods where any one person’s actions affect their neighbors? Join Enoch and Tim as they discuss the purpose and use of zoning regulations and how these rules impact the private spaces of our homes. Their commitments to individual liberties are stressed as they consider when, if ever, constraints are beneficial for cities and the flourishing of living in community.
