I also think that Act 250 is necessary for environmental protection. However, Act 250 as it stands is also greatly in need of reform. Too often it is misused to stop reasonable, well-planned and necessary development. There are plenty of places in this state where affordable, middle income housing could've been built without hurting the environment, which was stopped by the misuse and abuse of Act 250. I don't think Act 250 should be repealed: I think it needs to be reformed to keep people from abusing it for their own personal agendas.
