[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not real clear. Private school pays to have public land redeveloped, wants to use it exclusively during school hours. Neighborhood community pays nothing, but wants exclusive use 24 hours per day... Ummmm ok.[/quote] The public is providing the land, which is worth more than some field improvements. Meanwhile, DC *can* pay the field improvements. Clearly, it’s taxpayers would prefer that. Why did DC even buy the land if it couldn’t afford a much smaller additional amount for improvements? Oh, right — DC bought it so that Maret could lease it. Surely that’s aboveboard.... Either way, DC and Maret made a deal that is expiring. Maret got what they contracted for, and there is no good reason for the city to repeat it.[/quote]
