The housing issue is caused by the flippers now running the town and the short term rentals and was intentional. This group seeks not to take the housing back from those who took it, but to take quality of life away from those already suffering from the same gentrification that caused this problem. Why should we trust these people to do anything but take more money and cost us more quality of life? Honesty from this group is mandatory and I would surely be suspicious. Providing slave quarters and disrupting the lives of residents with work camps and feeding the developers and exploiters is not the way to go.
