[quote=Anonymous]So then the pool should be the first choice, but if the neighbors insist, DC should surely seek federal permission for the shelter, assuming this poster is correct. Hard to see why such permission would be "unlikely to happen," except that some neighbors don't want to do their part. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's why if the Hearst neighbors are dead set against a pool, they should welcome the homeless shelter. It's DC owned land, just like the police parking lot. Actually, Hearst Park is Federal land that the District is allowed to use for 'recreational' purposes. To use it in any other way would mean going back to the Feds and seeking approval. That is unlikely to happen. The Idaho Ave Police site, however, is District land, and they can use it as they see fit. So, DC could opt to co-locate police, homeless and pool complex at Idaho Ave. Police and homeless, however, can't be located at Hearst Park. [/quote][/quote]
