Pol, Locals Call for More Affordability in Planned Arrow Linen DevelopmentShould City Council vote in favor of Arrow Linen's plan to rezone a residential area from R5 to R9 regardless of contextual housing policies in place and the overwhelming local community opposition to the floor-height and luxury template that it actually employs (DONT FORGET ARROW LINEN'S ZONING PLAN UNILATERALLY INCLUDES TEN (10) PRIVATE PROPERTY LOTS IT DOES NOT OWN!!!! ... query: would most New Yorkers accept an adjoining owner to do such a thing without any consent or input from private owners? ) then you can be sure that the "Arrow Linen" rezone scheme will become the TEMPLATE for developers throughout the City to do the same; rezoning large areas of the City to build luxury (with "psuedo affordable housing) residential units . There will be way more luxury development for the "haves" ($$$$) and pittence for the "have nots" ($) and each City Council member who voted for this "scheme" should be held accountable for the same. City Council should vote "NO" on the "Arrow Linen Template" because by doing so the Council will give the communities they represent a voice on developing affordable housing and consequentially avoid "Arrow Linen" Template-developers visiting their neighborhood.
