That is one thing I really enjoyed about George Lucas v Marin County.
Lucas bought Grady Ranch to build an extension of the nearby Lucas film studio. Following the backlash he decided to develop the property (zoned as residential) as low-income housing, paying for it out of pocket (after 3 years getting the runaround from housing grants and regulatory boards).
Sadly a decade later the project is still blocked by Marin NIMBY.
