If Berkeley can do it, so can DC. But we need your help! What moved the needle in Berkeley was constant advocacy from people who lived there. Go to our website (link below) and sign up to our mailing list.
Jordan Grimes (on Bluesky @cafedujord)@cafedujord

It's done!! On a unanimous council vote, and after 6+ years, countless hours of public comment, and more than 40 community meetings... ...Berkeley has *officially* ended single-family only zoning and legalized multifamily housing citywide!!!

Lot of good stuff in here but @OPinDC needs to fast track the map amendment for this area. Tell them to upzone RIA and allow for more housing in this corridor!

@mattbarrows If you had to guess, how much would you say that teams adapting to Kyle Shanahan's scheme has resulted in red-zone trouble and problems with third down pressure vs. missing talented players? Despite the penalties on Sunday, the 49ers still seem to put up a lot of yards overall.

Looking for a few good questions to push today's #49ers mailbag over the goal line. Special consideration for those who add their first name and last initial. For ever and ever, Matt B.

A lot of people are looking to make a difference right now. One way you can help is to get involved locally. One of DC's biggest problems is that it's really expensive to live here. We need to build more housing to lower prices. Join us and be part of the solution!👇
DC YIMBYs 🏗@dcyimbys

Sign up at dcyimbys.org to get on our email list and hear about more ways to get involved. We host regular happy hours and would love to meet you!

Thank you for joining me today, @RoryOSully! Meeting neighbors and having 1:1 conversations is the best way to maintain community. I am very thankful to everyone who's opened their door to chat and share their vision for the neighborhood!

Great win @studentlegalnet "...the case is significant because it relies on a theory of racial discrimination known as “reverse redlining” to argue that the school violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act." nytimes.com/2024/10/17/us/…

New from the brilliant @claremccann + @RoryOSully and me. As Congress thinks about how to ensure value in HE, they need more tools in the toolchest!

In the first half of this year, DC has permitted fewer than 600 total units of new housing, the worst pace since the Great Recession. The city desperately needs to allow more construction unless it wants affordability problems to worsen.

This lack of candidates for important local elected offices is not unique to Ward 4. We need ANCs all over the city! If you're interested in running, reach out and/or read this: dcyimbys.org/run-for-anc/
Zach Israel@ZachBIsrael

As of July 17, candidates have filed to run in only *11 of the 42* ANC single-member districts located within Ward 4 (and these 11 candidates are all currently running unopposed)! August 7 is the filing deadline: dcboe.org/candidates/anc… @petworthdcnews @CMLewisGeorgeW4

The DC Zoning Commission voted to approve the proposed map amendment in Case 23–02, to rezone the police and fire station sites at 1617 U St. to MU-10, applying IZ Plus.

Incredible project. We can do this in DC, too. The Chevy Chase Civic Site redevelopment would create a new library and civic center, outdoor gathering spaces, and new housing (at least 30 percent affordable) in an area that desperately needs it. x.com/MBPMarkLevine/…
Office of Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine@MBPMarkLevine

The coolest new library in NYC has 174 units of deeply affordable housing on top of it. (Yes really) We need many more buildings like this.

We have 345 separate ANC seats all up for grabs across the 8 wards on November 5 and the vast majority of these will either go uncontested or have no one file to run. We need good people to run in these volunteer roles who are willing to do the work and not block good things!
