[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ANC meeting tonight, 10/28. Zoom details on Forest Hills Connect.[/quote]

There already have been numerous ANC meetings on this subject. How, exactly, will this ANC meeting lead to any different outcome? I can already predict what will happen

-- Someone will ask for more oversight of the voucher program (better screening, less concentration of vouchers in the same building, etc.).

-- Someone else will call that person racist for demanding oversight of the voucher program.

-- Someone will talk about how their apartment building has become unsafe because of vouchers.

-- That person also will be called racist.

-- The ANC commissioners will hem and haw and maybe think about drafting some sort of resolution that will be ignored by the powers that be.

-- If Frumin is there, he will shrug his shoulders and say it's a complex issue and that there's not a lot he can do. At the end of the meeting, he'll duck out and walk the two blocks to his car, which he parked far away enough so that hopefully no one notices that he drove and didn't ride his bike. [/quote]

What exactly would you like Frumin to do that is within his power to do?[/quote]

Publicly call for a pause in the voucher program until the Mayor and police certify they have the resources in place to absorb additional recipients?[/quote]
