Yesterday I listened to a portion of a discussion from 2012 with NDS regarding the future of our neighborhood. Discomfort was expressed. Who knew what the future held? AI, MIR, DZO, Cville Plans Together. We had zero expectation of the rezoning of modest homes.
"Since the city and consultants first introduced the Future Land Use Map in 2021, right up until the most recent pop-ups held by consultants and NDS on the Draft Zoning Ordinance (DZO), residents have asked for visualizations of what actual Charlottesville streetscapes could look like under the new regulations. Neither the city nor its consultants have obliged. We believe that while visualizations do not function as arguments for or against the DZO, they are an indispensable tool for residents trying to form an opinion on various aspects of the proposal. We have therefore prepared several simulated visualization of specific blocks in Charlottesville -- both to provide the tools that residents asked for and didn't get and to show that there was no difficulty involved in preparing visualizations that could have reasonably prevented a competent consultant or NDS department from providing them. You can find the videos below. We anticipate the we will add more over time. If you have an area for which you'd like to see a visualization, please reach out to us via email. Please bear in mind that the purpose of the videos is to help give viewers a concrete sense of height, massing and coverage. These are not architectural renderings or surveys and are necessarily approximate. We do not suggest that the generic 3D models we used are predictive of the architectural styles developers would use or that the blocks we simulate are more likely than others to be redeveloped."--A Nonymous
There are methods of harvesting timber that do not require the wholesale decimation of the forest but they require thought and the acceptance of less profit. It is easier to Slay Everything.
Privacy is good to practice. Conditions in societies without privacy don’t appeal. An exception to the joys of privacy occurs when incapacitated. In a closed room with no windows. Unable to move. God knows you are there. Dog knows you are there. But neither watchmaker God nor dog have the skill set required to fix your fall. Hug the concrete.
A question for the hive mind. Epson 4800, inkjet clog, cartridge #8, light light black (there should be a light gray rectangle to the right). Is there a printer repair technologist in CHO who makes house calls? The printer is bulky, has no wheels, weighs 110 pounds.
Or can you offer advice regarding restoring function when the printer’s various cleaning cycles do not suffice?
