[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Can someone explain what upzoning will accomplish? 
[/b]
I just want someone to lay it all out, in detail, so we can all come back later and point out how it didn't do *any* of the things we were promised. [/quote]

Allow property owners to build two-unit, three-unit, or four-unit residential buildings, by right, in addition to one-unit residential buildings, in certain areas of Montgomery County where currently only one-unit residential buildings may be built by right.[/quote]

That's it? That's all you got? Nothing about what it will mean for housing prices? Nothing about how many more units will be built?

I dont know how upzoning became the answer to all of our problems, but y'all are going to be *very* disappointed. [/quote]

I don't know who has said that upzoning is the answer to all of our problems?

Either upzoning won't result in more housing, in which case the UPZONING WILL DESTROY THE TRANQUILITY OF BETHESDA, POTOMAC, AND THE UPCOUNTY (!) posters have nothing to worry about, and you can be smug and say "I told you so." Or upzoning will result in more housing, in which case the UPZONING WILL DESTROY THE TRANQUILITY OF BETHESDA, POTOMAC, AND THE UPCOUNTY (!) posters do potentially have something to worry about (depending on what they worry about), and you cannnot be smug and say "I told you so." Choose one.

I live in the upcounty (Germantown), which, according to other parts of DCUM, is Ganglandia, not Tranquilityville.[/quote]
