Reply to comment by DJ_German_Farmer in CAR meets tomorrow to discuss removal of BustArt’s mural (info in comments) by nilsrva

Your neighborhood got over 50% of the homeowners to vote themselves into the historic district. That was all well and good when the historic tax credits were given out. Now you are mad when you want to replace an architecturally relevant window with a cheapie vinyl window from Lowes.

Dodson built a house where they literally completely changed the plans they were following from what CAR approved. We appealed and they did nothing. I’m not mad that there’s a process; I’m mad that it puts actual homeowners in a bureaucratic nightmare while it lets big money developers do whatever they please.

Ain’t nobody got tax credits, but keep making things up. The neighborhood wanted to prevent condos and apartments from being built Willy nilly, it was a mistaken move that didn’t really work, a d now we’re stuck with it while the folks who voted it in moved out long ago
