Some active members of the community advocate for bigger houses and higher taxes to pay for bigger schools and growing city services.
Others in the community are questioning the “bigger is better,” approach and are hoping the City Council will update the master plan and take steps to help balance the city housing stock.
Unlike neighboring municipalities, Rye does not have a master plan so we don’t know if big decisions being made by the real estate community today are compatible with the city’s vision for the future.
