** Here's our roundup of must-read posts from the week:
------------------------------------------------------------
Facing down a housing shortage, the Montgomery County Council overturned a moratorium on new development in overcrowded school zones this week — turns out crowding isn't caused by new development in the first place, and the moratorium wasn't doing much to stop it.
DC Council has been busy working on urbanist issues too. A bill moving through the legislative process would make it easier for scooter and e-bike riders to sue after being hit by a vehicle driver.
Also in DC Council this week is an effort to create a civilian oversight body to keep an eye on Metro Transit Police after a series of misconduct allegations. But that bill needs buy-in from the Maryland and Virginia legislatures to become a reality.
Another change coming to Metro: say goodbye to Tysons Corner and Prince George's Plaza. Both station names are being changed — to Tysons and Hyattsville Crossing, respectively.
Finally, this year has really driven home how important parks are for our wellbeing. If you live in DC and have thoughts on how the park system should be improved over the next few decades, take a crack at the District's parks and recreation master plan survey.
