How Much Is Too Much?

"If last week's outcome of several anti-sprawl ballot measures is any indication, Southeast voters are more willing than ever to foot the bill for buying up land before real-estate developers can get their hands on it. Now comes the hard part: Cities and counties from North Carolina's Research Triangle to South Florida must stretch public dollars far enough to please voters by curbing sprawl but not spend so much that they become too financially leveraged in the process."
