@MayorJenny you have a responsibility to all of Seattle, not this private special interest. Who are the parties here? For example @MOARSeattle @AIASeattle @SierraClubSEA @FuturewiseWA @MBAKS_Voice and AARP are all big supporters, but are they at the table?

Architects: Seattle wants to change way GFA is measured to be 1/2” from face of structure, not interior face of ext. wall—space inside walls could now be ‘floor area’?
Tell @SeattleSDCI that makes no sense!

@AIASeattle @CMTMosqueda @CMLGonzalez @D5Juarez @SeattleOPCD for the upcoming #RSJI analysis, people say they’d accept more housing along arterials. Here is a rough illustration of why that strategy alone furthers enviro inequity:
Why does ‘hub and spoke’ model of infill zoning perpetuate housing inequality? 1) households along line bear maximum environmental impact, and 2) it insulates SF zones from impacts or change.
We have to open housing opportunities all around transit not just narrowly along it.

@AIASeattle says we should
1)Extend temp DR exemption to all housing
2)Increase SDR threshld from 8-10K SF
3)Exempt deep green projects from DR
4)Eliminate DR req' for SF lots upzoned under MHA
5) if building AH under MHA, no DR.
