Notice: downtown renewal project and New town rules:First, I'd like to welcome Necaras as a new TA. I have notified derelict appearing plot owners in Gotham about a month ago. Next week, derelict plots will be claimed for the town and resold/reassigned.Town build rules, as of 6.2.14:1. At ground level and at least 2 blocks up, there must be a 1 block border between your build and the next plot on all sides as a freely passable alleyway/right of way. If builders obstruct the alleyway, a warning will be sent by /mail. If the alleyway is not cleared within 2 weeks, I reserve the right to assign a TA to tunnel through to make a right of way. As you have been warned, this will not constitute griefing. This applies only to new construction at this time, but if you have a structure that directly abuts your neighbor, please make an alley to allow citizens to move freely through town. This does not apply to a combination of plots owned by a single person, only between plots of differing owners2. All builds in the city proper should be flattened to y=66. If your plot has blocks overhead, they need to be cleared or I will assign a builder to clear it and you will not receive the blocks/ores that are harvested. 3. Derelict plots. Any plots that are partially built/incomplete or empty are derelict after 2 weeks and a warning will be issued via /mail or PM. 1 month after warning is received, plots will revert to town ownership and will be resold/reassigned.4. Absentee owners. Any plot owners who are absent from the server for more than 1 month will be warned by /mail or PM. After 2 months of absenteeism, any plots/property will revert to town ownership. Contact to mayor or TA will reset the clock.5. Builds are allowed under the river/waterways, but the waterways must remain navigable in the original banks (builds must be below 2 blocks of the surface). Any existing docks/structures as of this writing are "grandfathered" in, this only applies to construction after 6.2.146. Built plots are no longer free, they will be assigned a price based on the build quality. Empty plots will still be free until town is fully populated.7. Cash prizes for best builds in town are coming soon. Points will be awarded for redstone machinery, design detail, structure size, and town theme. Nominations required, you may nominate yourself after the contest is announced.8. Cash prizes for best shop in town are coming soon. Points will be awarded for shop design, layout, selection of wares, and customer service. Nominations required, you may nominate yourself after the contest is announced.I feel these rules are for the betterment of the city, but I will entertain mature discussion.Feel free to offer suggestions for town improvements/structures.Gotham has 2 tree farms, a crop farm with most crops (including netherwort), an armor/repair grinding area, an acrobatics training area, a town enchantment room, a public anvil, and the best tramway in Noobstown.
