Citizens for Sensible Growth is an organization of Auburn residents who advocate for zoning laws that promote sensible growth in Auburn. The organization supports a comprehensive and inclusive process, with significant public participation, that respects existing neighborhoods, provides a variety of housing opportunities for all residents, and protects the natural resources in the city. We are not opposed to growth in Auburn, growing from the city core outward, reviewing zoning laws, or using form-based codes in the development and application of new zoning regulation. We are opposed to applying zoning laws intended for downtown development with a broad brush to residential neighborhoods without significant public input in a comprehensive and inclusive process. ~ Jeffrey Harmon, Auburn
