What about more displacement citywide by raising land values, pushing up housing costs as developers, landowners get immediate enrichments. Remember, this massive upzoning is like the interstate highways that tore up DC in the 1970s. Stopped, and the money used to create METRO.

Somehow the part of the public that supported the upzonings managed to participate. As did you. Not sure why you think months of an open case record after years of feedback excluded anyone.

OP's public participation deliberately excludes the public and is blatantly undemocratic, as demonstrated by W3 Conn Av/Wisc. Ave upzoning where CM Frumin had to intervene to allow the public to be heard. Be heard. Attend the OP Comp Plan, Sat. Session, 11 am MLK Library
DC YIMBYs 🏗@dcyimbys
And join us at a rally in front of MLK at 11 to send a message to their bosses that we don't want a generation of rising prices, displacement, and exclusion. x.com/i/status/20346…

OP's massive, citywide upzoning will cause displacement by directly and immediately raising land values and housing costs and directly and immediately enriching landowners and developers. Massive upzoning is like the interstate highways that tore up communities in the 1970s

NO❗️OP's staff was NOT "caught off guard" that OP "didn't upzone enough." In fact people said they wanted "truly affordable and 'right-sized apartments serving families,' senior centers, grocery stores and community services, NOT for higher density throughout the city

What we've heard about yesterday's workshop is that OP staff were caught off guard by how many people said they didn't upzone enough. Show up Saturday and tell them again!
