C100 Comments Zoning Commission Case No. 23 02 Opposing U Street Upzoning
Shelly Repp
The C100 appears in opposition to this application submitted by the Office of Planning. The upzoning would be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan’s Mid-City Area Element and would deal a serious blow to the principle of adapting infill development to the surrounding neighborhood. Simply put, there need to be guardrails placed on any development of this site.
C100 Comments Zoning Commission Case no. 22 36 Opposing Takoma Park Metro Development
Laura Richards
The C100 appears in opposition to this application because of its patent noncompliance with the Comprehensive Plan and with the associated Rock Creek East Area Plan and the Takoma Central District Plan. Approval of this application in its current form will deal a serious blow to the principle of adapting infill development to the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed multi-family building at the Takoma Metro Station simply is too tall for the location.
