Remember in primary school when after a busy weekend, someone would come in with a broken arm or leg and everyone would be so fascinated? We’d sign their cast, treat them with extra kindness, want to sit with them at lunch and keep asking how they felt. After the school day we’d tell our parents and make a wish that maybe we too could break an arm and receive all the attention (Moomey, 2016). They’d then scold us for wanting such and explain the pain that would come from an incident like that. So we’d keep quiet but secretly, we’d still wish that maybe it was us with the broken leg.

provision that has been added, i would have a different approach. i support the inclusion of an economic hardship provision because i do think that it is important to recognize there are certain communities and disproportionately communities of color that are not going to be able to meet the financial obligations that come as part of a historic district. i appreciate the extent to which some of these changes come from the recognition and from that perspective. that is very valid, and i applaud the authors for including that in there. the challenge i have with this provision is i do think that requiring of the vote in the survey does treat historic preservation severally. it is a tool that can be used for or against whatever the objective is. i do not see historic preservation as the panacea to affordable housing the way that some have proposed it. at the same time, i do not see affordable historic preservation was the enemy of affordable housing in low-income communities. lik
