[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmmm, that is not how I read the conversation, as much as you can call it that. While it is noble to suggest there should be more affordable housing, I don't think you can foist that on GDS once they were pressured to reduce the overall density. Increase the density and tie it to more affordable housing and that might work economically. However, you can lose the density and increase affordable housing without a way of paying for it. And I think the one commissioner noted was questioning the role of the ANC letter because it wasn't based on any facts, but rather presumptions by the authors. That is why it was withdrawn and not voted upon. Clearly if the Chair and author had the votes, they would have pushed it through. They didn't. [/quote] More affordable housing than the bare minimum required by DC law can and should be one of the "amenities" in the project, in exchange for the extra density and relief from zoning regs that GDS is seeking.[/quote]
