Maybe put the pitchforks down for city staff? On Dallas Dirt podcast, a ForwardDallas committee member says they were the ones who suggested not having a specific zoning — single-family detached only — in the big picture land use plan.

@Johnyalamo @Knightengale @CityOfDallas Worth noting that this memorandum from @ChadWestDallas doesn't do anything other than open the topic for discussion. It doesn't start the process of creating an ordinance, nor does it establish policy.

@Knightengale And all that community engagement over the past couple years was wasted by one little piece of paper in November that attempted to toss Forward Dallas aside by issuing a ‘by right ordinance’ for ALL of @CityOfDallas. These 5 elected woke up organized neighborhoods to unify now.

@Knightengale You're not wrong. Sadly, spicy conspiracy theory often mobilizes more citizens than the nuts and bolts of urban planning.

@BradfordPearson Congrats!

Great chat on #ForwardDallas with ZOAC and CLUP member @ncoxbarrett on the Dallas Dirt podcast!

@AngelaHunt @Knightengale I'm not sure that state law requires it. I think that the state recommends the development of a land use plan, but it also states that it's not a zoning document: statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/LG/htm/LG…

@JoEngland @Knightengale Yes, there's a distinction between zoning and a comprehensive land use plan. But state law requires that zoning conform to a city's comp plan. That's what got people concerned.

Very relevant to recent discussions regarding whether or not Forward Dallas eliminates SF zoning. @AngelaHunt @Knightengale
