PZHED Draft Agenda –

  • What is up for discussion? 

    The DC Office of Planning is asking the Zoning Commission to change the zoning rules for Connecticut Ave. These changes would permit buildings up to 75 feet tall (plus a 15-foot penthouse) in the Cleveland Park business district and on the east side of Connecticut in Woodley Park, and 90 feet (plus penthouse) on the west side in Woodley Park. Specific projects would need HPRB approval. The changes would allow for more residential development in these areas. 

    These proposed changes build on years of planning work (all available on ANC3C website), including the Connecticut Avenue Development Guidelines, and will shape how our commercial corridors evolve in the years ahead. As part of this process, ANC3C will review the proposal, hear public input, and prepare a letter to the Zoning Commission.

    In addition to the height changes, the zoning being proposed by the Office of Planning:

    • Responds to an increase in allowable density for these areas passed by the D.C. Council in 2021 when they amended the District’s Comprehensive Plan;
    • Flows directly from the 2022-2023 planning process that produced the Connecticut Avenue Development Guidelines which were created by the Office of Planning and Historic Preservation Office;
    • Applying ‘Inclusionary Zoning Plus’ which requires an increased set-aside of permanently affordable homes depending upon the amount of increased density used, raising the set-aside requirement from 8%-10% of the total homes to up to 20%;
    • Embeds form-based requirements such as setbacks on upper floors facing residential areas, street-fronting retail with large windows, and frequent entryways along the Avenue;
    • Removes the 25% lineal street frontage cap for eating and drinking establishments.
