Meaning, there are all sorts of rules and whatnot that were put in place for one thing and they get used by others with opposing goals and it's not the players' fault if the player didn't make the rules. Neighborhood activists need to be better players of the game than the outside developers.<br /><br />Yes, it is frustrating when construction starts next door then months of nothing. Then a few weeks of something including some illegal construction. Worse when you're convinced the developers are complete idiots who will take down your house as they screw up theirs. The only thing you can do is bug DCRA & your ANC, document & photograph with the plan to sue, not threaten to sue, plan to sue.... but most people don't. Short of that you could try the power of prayer.Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12378722789147387229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8922083289782881257.post-46555849802945871262016-10-17T19:47:38.431-07:002016-10-17T19:47:38.431-07:00It's crazy how many vacant homes are in DC.

The thing that has bothered me is that how does someone purchase these vacant houses? If they actually want to help improve the neighborhood? DC doesn't make it easy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
