I'm simply referring to the prevalence of BANANA NIMBYs and insufferable busybodies in Vermont and the arcane regulatory state (Act 250) and local hurdles people have to overcome when it comes to building on or developing any kind of property in VT, including residential. It's very easy to challenge, stymie, and delay any kind of development or construction project in VT regardless of size. That is quintessential VT.

NIMBY I’ve heard, and totally agree with your sentiments.

What’s “BANANA” though?

Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anything.
