The only way you can avoid changes in "limits >beyond those that existed at purchase" is to not buy property. I think katherine is making her statement from the standpoint of a property buyer who, at the time of buying a property, doesn't expect the imposition of additional limits that don't yet exist (like historic designation) beyond existing limits (like zoning and L+I), while neil is making his statement from the standpoint of a property buyer who, at the time of buying a property, knows that limits (like historical designation and zoning and L+I) are in place and expects them to change over time. but I may be wrong. can anyone clarify this comparison between what seems to be two separate realities (one that assumes historic designation doesn't yet exist and one that assumes it's in place)? ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
