County Board Oversteps Boundaries on EHO (aka Missing Middle)

In Late April 2024, attorneys for the County subpoenaed an Arlington activist demanding information on donors to a lawsuit against Arlington County's EHO policy.  ASF is not a party to that lawsuit, but we share some concerns of the plaintiffs.  See our report of January 2023 here.

​

For more information on EHO implementation, see ASF's January 2024 Brief to the Arlington Committee of 100 and map of permits approved as of January 5 (from Arlington economist Michael O'Grady)
