Zoning Commission approves technical correction, grants two two‑year PUD time extensions
Summary
The Zoning Commission on March 26 unanimously approved a technical correction to court regulations (case 08‑06s) and granted two separate two‑year PUD time extensions for cases 15‑21G (DCHA) and 15‑27H (350 Morse). Each approval recorded a 5‑0‑0 vote with Chair Hood’s absentee ballot.
The Zoning Commission unanimously approved final action on a technical correction to court regulations and granted two two‑year time extensions for previously approved planned unit developments (PUDs) at its March 26 public meeting.
Commissioners voted 5‑0‑0 to adopt final action on case 08‑06s, a technical correction to Subtitle I §207.2. Commissioner Gwen Wright moved the final action; staff recorded Chair Hood’s vote by absentee ballot.
The commission also approved a two‑year time extension for case 15‑21G, filed by the DC Housing Authority, and a two‑year time extension for case 15‑27H (350 Morse, CPK owner C2 LLC). Office of Planning told the commission the DCHA applicant requested the waiver to Subtitle Z §705.5 because inflation, higher construction costs and rising interest rates have hindered timely financing and construction. OP submitted reports in support of both extension requests; ANC support was recorded for 15‑27H and no ANC report was on file for 15‑21G at the time of the meeting. Each extension passed by a recorded 5‑0‑0 vote, with Chair Hood’s absentee ballot noted.
A brief administrative exchange followed the first vote about whether a draft order was needed; the commission indicated a summary order would be appropriate and declined to request a formal order from the applicant.

The meeting record indicates all votes were recorded by staff, and that Chair Hood submitted his votes by absentee ballot. The commission did not take public testimony during the meeting; staff noted meeting materials and the notice of proposed rulemaking for case 08‑06s had been published in the DC Register.
