2020. A year that none of us ever saw coming, and one that we will never forget. The simultaneous pandemics we face have only exacerbated the very real challenges our city is battling. And yet, one of our most critical tools to address housing affordability, racial equity and a number of other challenges is awaiting adoption by the DC Council. The Comprehensive (Comp) Plan is a guiding document that sets a long-term vision for the District, to help inform decision-making for residents, officials, and stakeholders. The plan is vital to land use, zoning and shaping the District’s budget. The Housing Priorities Coalition (HPC) calls on the Council to pass the updated Comprehensive Plan as soon as possible.
