^ Exactly. For every unelected “community board” made of anti-development NIMBY Napoleons, there’s another “zoning review council” made up of business owners, nonprofits and campaign donors who are pro-development. Carlos Rosa vs Danny Solis, they’re both playing the same tune even if the words are different.
None of it is really democratic, but I’m not sure we want the community making decisions by mob rule on each and every proposed building... that’s why we elect officials to make these decisions for us.
