Projects that don't go through design review (left) vs projects that do go through design review (right)

Now, let's look at a zoning map. Light gray is single family zoning. Colorful parts are where apartments and townhouses are legal. Oh, how odd, lookie at the old redlined map of segregation

So when we see this tweet from @ItsKelseyHamlin , she is spot on https://twitter.com/ItsKelseyHamlin/status/1334962057699942401?s=20

There's a silly idea out there that I somehow professionally benefit from dragging this useless program. Couldn't be further from the truth. I work on projects that go to DRB and I work with DRB members who are my superior. If they heard my opinions, they'd tell me to stop

But I am a person of principle. This program is insufferable. It has to go. I try to kill this program under the radar. I would benefit much more by getting on one of these boards. I've even been asked. I want nothing to do with it. https://aluver.medium.com/its-time-to-review-design-review-c4968222ef81
