Understanding DC's Housing Policy
Mayor Williams, members of the City Council Members, developers and housing advocates all play a role in shaping DC housing policy, but Deputy Mayor Eric Price, more than any other official, is responsible for implementing it. How does he do it? Find out at a Washington Regional Networks forum, where Price will speak about housing and how it fits in with other areas of economic development. The event is Wednesday, Jan. 14, at the Wilson Building (1350 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, in room G-9 on the ground floor; enter on D Street; ID required). Refreshments will be served at 5:30 p.m., and the presentation starts at 6. For more information, call Janet Brown at 202/332-0789.
