(Washington, DC) On April 29, 2005, the Office of Planning (OP) submitted its report regarding Zoning Commission Case No. 04-33, a petition by the Campaign for Mandatory Inclusionary Zoning (CMIZ), to the Zoning Commission. Inclusionary Zoning (IZ) seeks to promote a mix of market rate and affordable housing units in residential construction. OP recommended that the Zoning Commission schedule a public hearing regarding three concepts: a mandatory proposal by OP, a mandatory concept developed by CMIZ, and an incentive-based proposal from OP.
The Zoning Commission will meet at 6:30 pm at 441 4th Street NW, second floor South (Judiciary Square Metro), to consider whether the proposals should be given further consideration. If a hearing is scheduled, the anticipated date would be approximately sometime during July 2005, with possible continuation hearings in September.
