[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is pretty clear that the survey has way oversampled single family homeowners and as well as those over 60. In other words, this is pretty meaningless given the overall demographics of that area.[/quote]

This is the demographics of that area...

Let people decide what happens in their backyard. Homeowners should also have a greater say given all the property tax that is collected from their homes..[/quote]

so when voters vote for ANC Commissioners who want bike lanes almost unanimously up and down CT Ave, you want the city to intervene, but when a crappy survey suggests a very slight majority of respondents, who are but a small fraction of those who live in the area, are opposed to some new affordable housing, we should "let people decide what happens in their backyard"

I sense a touch of hyprocracy. Also, this is city owned land, so the city should decide what happens with it. Yes, the community should have input, but not a trump card.[/quote]

ANC Commissioners are almost unanimously unopposed.  Because no one cares about that office.  Even if you call yourself “Commissioner” in your Twitter profile (which is sad and funny).  [/quote]
