DC for Reasonable Development Appeals McMillan Demolition Permits
November 6, 2019
By Nina Perry-Brown

Another appeal has been filed against the planned development at the McMillan Sand Filtration site. 
Chris Otten, acting as representative of DC for Reasonable Development (DC4RD), has filed a Board of Zoning Adjustment application appealing the issuance of a partial demolition permit and a permit to lay a foundation for a new community center.
"DCRA has erroneously issued a demolition permit and foundation construction permit risking imminent and permanent harm to the historic resources at McMillan Park, a national landmark on the historic register," the appeal states. The document alleges lack of clarity around a determination from the zoning administrator, lack of information about the financial feasibility of the project and the environmental impacts of work on the site, and the lack of due diligence as it relates to historic preservation.
