Thanks to the Trump administration, an obscure rule called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing(AFFH) has been recinded/replaced. HUD sought to remake America’s cities, towns and villages, forcing any community that was getting federal funds to meet racial quotas, Team Trump just called a halt to the Obama-era war on American suburbs
Since Georgetown is large enough in population to apply directly for HUD funds, they would have been subject to these AFFH rules that would have resulted in HUD bureaucrats dictating zoning, density and other rules governing local housing.
Now Georgetown can proceed to approve housing units that are compatible with local values.
