<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span>The event is a continuation of the discussion at the local-Ward 2 level on changes to the Comprehensive Plan proposed by Mayor Bowser and that attracted hundreds of witnesses to a recent marathon hearing in the DC Council.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cThe DC Office of Planning has spent more than half a million dollars so far on community outreach to produce a polarizing document–and it\u2019s only the first chapter of the <\/span>Plan,<\/span><\/font>\u201d said DCCA President Robin Diener. <\/span>In response, many groups around the city are hosting debates and conversations about the Comp Plan. \u201cIn Dupont, we are calling ours a search for solutions. Everyone agrees on the dire need for affordable housing, environmental justice, racial and economic equity, among other goals. We differ over how to achieve them. We hope to find some common ground and advise the government about how to move forward.\u201d <\/font><\/font><\/font>
<\/span><\/font><\/font><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
The event is free and open to the public.\u00a0RSVP\u00a0<\/a>here.<\/span><\/div>\n
