[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exactly, and that's why I think architects and planners shouldn't be allowed to weigh in on development proposals unless they have a direct negative impact on their homes. There's necessarily a conflict of interest there - they want more business and are eager to let loose their ivory tower "SmartGrowth" mantras to make skyscrapers like this one look good. Just because it's not paid doesn't mean it's ethical.[/quote] I think that folks can weigh in as they wish. At the same time, people can also weigh their possible affiliations and motivations. Ward 3 Vision and Greater Greater Washington are basically mouthpieces for big development interests. Even if architects are not directly involved in the project, they may be preening and sucking up in the hope of attracting friendly developer business in the future.[/quote]
