[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, in sum, a bunch of uber progressives won with Lewis annd Oye etc, and now crime will rise once more because “teens” can gather wherever they want at 2am to street fight and get free cars to joyride. All the while struggling businesses and [b]private landlords will be saddled with higher taxes and tenants who smoke, damage properties without recompense, and can’t be evicted.[/b] I’m liberal. I voted for Mcduffie. I basically just want a middle of the road candidate who gets that attracting business and development is the only reason this city got better after Barry. Fenty and others got that. Now we are back to a reactionary, protest vote that will make the city worse. Check back in a year and I guarantee most people will be like “what? How could this happen? Why does the city seems worse?” It’s because things never fking change. The political pendulum just swings back and forth. Ugh. I am so tired of the idiocy of so many voters. Like have some fking perspective.[/quote] This article tells you all you need to know about the future for delinquent renters. JLG codons this behavior and then replies on the government to bail put the developers because they caused the problem. https://www.notus.org/metro/dc-housing-the-gale-tax-abatement[/quote] Thanks. Any policy where you can’t evict a tenant for normal reasons is going to backfire on creating affordable housing. It always does. I’m sorry but if you have to force a private landlord, who otherwise maintains a clean property and operates in good faith, to court for them to try and evict some person who is smoking weed all over the place, while 12 unrelated family members live and trash the property…then yeah that’s not gonna work.[/quote]
