@Commof100DC asking @CMFrumin to ask Zoning Comm to reopen record on BIG Wisc Ave upzone “based on the same democratic principles that underlay his previous successful request to ZC.” @OPinDC@OZinDC
Recently decided Zoning case 24-11, 15 acre lot at Montana Ave & NY Ave NE to be rezoned PDR, seems to be yet another example of a missed opportunity for the administration to advance housing goals, affordable and otherwise.
DC Preservation League et. al. v. Kennedy Center Board of Trustees et. al. sue to require federal review of President Trump’s plans for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

What about more displacement citywide by raising land values, pushing up housing costs as developers, landowners get immediate enrichments. Remember, this massive upzoning is like the interstate highways that tore up DC in the 1970s. Stopped, and the money used to create METRO.
Somehow the part of the public that supported the upzonings managed to participate. As did you.
Not sure why you think months of an open case record after years of feedback excluded anyone.
OP's public participation deliberately excludes the public and is blatantly undemocratic, as demonstrated by W3 Conn Av/Wisc. Ave upzoning where CM Frumin had to intervene to allow the public to be heard. Be heard. Attend the OP Comp Plan, Sat. Session, 11 am MLK Library
And join us at a rally in front of MLK at 11 to send a message to their bosses that we don't want a generation of rising prices, displacement, and exclusion.

OP's massive, citywide upzoning will cause displacement by directly and immediately raising land values and housing costs and directly and immediately enriching landowners and developers. Massive upzoning is like the interstate highways that tore up communities in the 1970s
