What is a Blue Alert?

Guarded risk of inappropriate development. Although properly zoned, and lot splits are unlikely, more needs to be done to protect the neighborhood. Original houses may be replaced with oversized, unattractive, or lesser-quality construction. Even when houses are not torn down, budget remodeling jobs can add out-of-character touches like unpainted aluminum window frames and vinyl siding. In some cases, front yards have been replaced with 50-foot-wide driveways.
