D.C. developers weigh in on Janeese Lewis-George's housing promises

Mayor-elect Janeese Lewis George campaigned on protecting tenants while getting more homes built in D.C. — 72,000 in five years. Developers say she has her work cut out for her. Why it matters: D.C.'s development market has slowed dramatically amid federal job losses, unpaid rent, regulatory hurdles and high financing costs. What they're saying: Developers welcome JLG 's promise of higher-density development and expedited permitting, but say those changes alone won't be enough to fix the current market. "There needs to be a full-on PR campaign in D.C. to change the stigma around investing [here]," says Ian Ruel of commercial real estate group Feldman Ruel. Ruel says D.C.'s tenant-friendly policies have instead driven developers toward places like NoVA, which some see as "more pro-business" with "more perceived growth." Instead, several experts Axios spoke with want JLG to address the same thing right off the bat: unpaid rent. "It's fundamental, because without those rent revenues, buildings can't really operate," says Peter A. Tatian, an Urban Institute housing expert. "It's putting a lot of the housing at risk." Tatian also says stabilizing and preserving existing affordable housing should be prioritized before focusing on new builds. Reality check: Developers praised Lewis George's housing

Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development Announces New Opportunity Zone Designations

ANNAPOLIS, MD – The Department of Housing and Community Development today announced Maryland’s nomination of 114 census tracts as Opportunity Zones under the federal Opportunity Zone program, which provides tax benefits to incentivize high-impact investments in low-income communities. Counties across Maryland submitted nominations of individual census tracts to the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development. The department then worked with local officials, business owners, investors, and community development experts to evaluate the proposed areas and identify where Opportunity Zone designations would have the greatest benefit to their communities. Last month, the department submitted the state’s approved and recommended census tracts to the United States Department of the Treasury. On November 5, the U.S. Treasury released the official 2.0 designations.
