This week in our round-up of must-read posts: Montgomery County needs more homes, despite the county executive's desire to prevent Attainable Housing reforms. A new dashboard enables you to map transit equity in our region. A new advice column for families who bike around town; and an oldie-but-goodie with advice for families who want to walk to school. And then, *drumroll please* eight wards' worth of endorsements for DC Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner seats: share with your civically engaged friends and, perhaps even more importantly, your DC voter friends who aren't sure what ANCs are.
And don't forget: the GGWash Fall Mixer is in 11 DAYS! Join us on September 25 at Metrobar for the biggest pro-transit, pro-housing party around. Tickets and details >>
