[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ah, I see crazy "rent control lady" is back. Unless or until you have a better way for the city to expend resources on affordable housing, the IZ and IZ+ rules are what we have.[/quote] DC’s IZ rules are a giveaway to developers. Many cities have double DC’s requirements. The reason that IZ is “what we have” is that Bowser is not serious about truly affordable housing. She likes IZ because it doesn’t cost her budget as is a light burden on developers. Most importantly, IZ provides a pretext for arguing for more and more upscale development to get a few more IZ crumbs. If Bowser were serious about affordable housing, especially west of Rock Creek Park, she would build it on the UDC campus or have bought the Marriott Wardman.[/quote]
