[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I follow the planning board Facebook page for Montgomery County and today (thanks for the warning!) they posted that there is going to be a public comment period on THURSDAY MARCH 21st to talk about housing and missing middle zoning issues.  They are discussing upzoning in MOCO.

You can’t complain about the new duplex or 4-6 unit apartment building next door to your house when it happens if you don’t let them know how you feel.

You can submit a written testimony through email to let them know your thoughts and feelings.

“item March 21 – Public Comment Item – Attainable Housing Strategies Public Listening Session. If submitting written testimony, include this same information (the date and title of the item) in your email.”

Contact the Planning Board

Thank you for sharing this. I had lost track of the whole *upzone* plan from the county.

I'll put my 2 cents in, but it won't matter. The county will ram this thing through because they are buddies with developer PACs and it hits all the virtue signaling buzz words that makes them all giddy inside. There won't be any push back because 90% of county residents have no idea that these upzoning plans exist.

I wish I had enough free time in my life to dress up in bee costumes, post all day on social media and network with super rich PAC under the pretense of equity, while making gobsmacks of money from designing these housing units that will eventually turn into slums because no one actually wants to live in a quadplex.

That is what stings about all of this. The developers will have their way, make their money and will be torching away on some beach somewhere 20 years from now while county residents will have to deal with the repercussions of the slums they created.
