Reply to comment by MarkVII88 in In this scenario, what would “Vermont Style” pizza be? by Unique-Public-8594
You keep making comments like this in here and I'm genuinely curious what sorts of regulations Vermont has that are particularly restrictive relative to most other places.

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?

Vermont is loaded with select boards that change nothing and wonder why nothing changes.
They think doing nothing is tantamount to preservation, meanwhile most of the forestry isnt even 100 years old.
