Silly Notions

I don’t understand people and where they get their silly notions, such as the notion that condos will bring down their property values and that high density is bad. The silliest notion is thinking that a commuter rail station is going to bring your property values down. I just don’t see it happening in Woods Cross, it hasn’t happened anywhere else in the state or the country so I don’t see why Woods Cross would be any different. To me this is a win win situation. If they don’t want to live within walking distance of a commuter rail station that will take them all over the Wasatch Front then they can sell their homes for at the very least double what they bought them for.

Why did they wait until now to start complaining? Woods Cross has been working with UTA for over two years now. If they say they didn’t know about the transit station and where the parking lot was going to be, it’s because they don’t pay attention and maybe they should attended City Planning and Council meetings.

I will be surprised if homes are still there in ten years. Just like all other stations in Salt Lake and around the country, condos, apartments, offices and retail will pop up all around the station.
