Backing: Quimby Act

It has become a somewhat common practice for developers to promise other land for "public good" in order to obtain special land-use designations or zoning changes. And the state Quimby Act requires developers set aside some open space or a pay a in-lieu of fee. JMI says it has complied. Still, it's offensive to require such requests in developing private property.
