[quote=Anonymous][quote]I thought there was a moratorium in place for building in areas with overcrowded schools. And yet there are high rises going up all over bethesda, plus the ADUs.[/quote] I live in a neighborhood impacted by the moratorium, and it's kind of complicated. Buildings that were already approved are moving forward. Given the construction timeline, that means buildings will continue to go up for years before the actual impact of the moratorium hits. One building slated to be renovated in our neighborhood will instead be used for senior housing, but Riemer tried to get around even that. He introduced legislation saying that the moratorium wouldn't "count" if the building served as low income housing. It was egregious, because kids are kids and overcrowding is overcrowding. Trying to get around the moratorium by designating the housing for low income families doesn't exactly solve the problem. [/quote]
