[quote=Anonymous][quote]You guys are truly nuts - please go and take your hydroxychloroquine.

There is no proposal to implement gentle density.

Just a report.

You can state it on here a hundred or a thousand times but it doesn't make it true.

If you want to discuss the report we can certainly do that.

But you are being dishonest with this nonsense that there is any proposal.[/quote]

The 'report' in its own words is a recommendation to the Mayor and itself for how to implement the new COMP Plan to do exactly what it recommends.

You can keep saying 'it is a report'. That is TRUE.
The report recommends 'gentle density'.
The report recommends that to the Mayor and itself. That is the ENTIRE purpose of the report. Otherwise OP simply would not have published it.

CONCLUSION
This report recommends that the District pursue gentle
density in single-family zones in a targeted manner that
prioritizes neighborhoods that are high-opportunity,
high-cost, or near high-capacity transit. An important
element of this recommendation is ensuring that
the District maintains and grows a supply of familysized units as land uses change from single-family to
multifamily.

That is the conclusion of the report. You can say it makes no recommendations, but its words say it does. You can say it never recommends 'gentle densification' but that is simply because you have not read the document and now are refusing to do so. We have been discussing the report for twenty pages or so, but you simply will not acknowledge that the report uses the words that it does or even makes a conclusion or even provides the Mayor a recommendation. I am not sure how we discuss this constructively when you will not even acknowledge the conclusions first paragraph.
