[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The vast majority of construction work is only essential from an economic standpoint. However, given that shelter is an essential need, one could argue that continuing to supply the continued housing needs of a community makes housing projects more essential than nonresidential projects.[/quote These market rate projects are all built on spec. And DC’s Chief Financial Officer estimates that the city’s population is increasing slowly if at all (contradicting the office of planning’s irrationally exuberant talking points). Not exactly justifying large residential and mixed use projects as “essential” or emergency activity.[/quote]
