[quote=Anonymous]Litigation won't work like it did in Arlington. MoCo did the pro forma to dot "i"s and cross "t"s, having seen that which was transpiring across the river. That doesn't mean they handled this responsibly with respect to those in the affected communities, of course -- the method, timing and order of things was calibrated to minimize effective opposition, and that includes legal challenge. Now, there were elements of procedure where a case might be made, especially at Planning, but since the product, there, was the AHS report accepted as information, rather than adopted as policy/direct legislation, that doesn't really serve as a basis for challenge. Friedson's hand-waving about More Housing N.O.W. being responsive to the kangaroo-court listening sessions was pretty much guided by Fani-González's familiarity of interaction between Planning and Council, having been on both. Those hoping for an injunction or the like will need to find some novel approach.[/quote]
