Im writing to your colleagues now to ask why nothing has happened in the 16 months since adopting your motion to amend the BMO. In that time, I’ve seen the one-story house across the street from my apartment (on the 400 block of N. Vista St.) get demolished, to be replaced by an enormous monstrosity that blocks more of the sun. After 8 months, as they put the finishing touches on that, the house behind me has been demolished this morning. Im in for another 8 months of construction noise, with the added fun of not being able to open my windows all summer during construction hours because of the dust clouds. At least this time all the parking spots on my street wont be taken up with construction vehicles, even on street cleaning days. (And why arent they ticketed, incidentally? But I digress.) That's going to add up 16 months of construction all told, in a 200 foot radius. In 16 months, two more houses will be forever gone from this neighborhood. Yet in 16 months, the city planners couldnt manage to work out the amendments. Our city is being transformed, our affordable housing is going up in dust, and nothing is being done about it. I want to know why, and i want to add my voice to those who are asking for help. Begging. I understand wanting to make as much money as possible with ones personal property. But there has to be a balance, always. Please let me know when you're going to be finished with the amendments, and when they will be put into effect.

Dear Council member Koretz,

Thank you for your heroic efforts to stop the mansionization of the Fairfax District. I’m writing to your colleagues now to ask why nothing has happened in the 16 months since adopting your motion to amend the BMO.

In that time, I’ve seen the one-story house across the street from my apartment (on the 400 block of N. Vista St.) get demolished, to be replaced by an enormous monstrosity that blocks more of the sun. After 8 months, as they put the finishing touches on that, the house behind me has been demolished this morning. I’m in for another 8 months of construction noise, with the added fun of not being able to open my windows all summer during construction hours because of the dust clouds. At least this time all the parking spots on my street won’t be taken up with construction vehicles, even on street cleaning days. (And why aren’t they ticketed, incidentally? But I digress.)

That's going to add up 16 months of construction all told, in a 200 foot radius. In 16 months, two more houses will be forever gone from this neighborhood. Yet in 16 months, the city planners couldn’t manage to work out the amendments. Our city is being transformed, our affordable housing is going up in dust, and nothing is being done about it.

I want to know why, and i want to add my voice to those who are asking for help. Begging. I understand wanting to make as much money as possible with one’s personal property. But there has to be a balance, always.

Please let me know when you're going to be finished with the amendments, and when they will be put into effect.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Rosen
