I wish everyone who comes across this would actually read the Private Urban Development plan. Out of the 50 some acres in this plan, only 1.75 acres were designated for affordable housing. Even more so, the company that the government was contracting for the plan wasn't even going to build the affordable housing, it was literally just set aside for future development. Dave Chapelle has been protesting this bill since December. This is a total media hit job, and very poorly researched.
Thank you for this. I'm glad I wasn't the only seeing it.
Excellent comment! I can't believe the lies, or at least the lack of research, that news stations like this one are allowed to air
Great comment!! Anyone doing a minimal level of research into this will find the truth. This kind of thing is why we can't trust the media anymore.
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The developers said it would be affordable apartments and duplexes for multi family use then they switched to non affordable single family home plots which is just a trick to make money for a giant developer. Dave is NOT against affordable housing!
Report the news correctly. When homes cost 250K to 600K that's not affordable housing. DC and his neighbors have no issue with affordable housing. Be more responsible with your reporting.
My friend spoke at this meeting in Yellowsprings so I know the backstory and you are right!
Smear campaign in full affect. Dave was opposed of the corrupt developers.
MSM will never fact check.
We need to build a whole bunch of them in places like Martha’s Vineyard!
Affordable, 200k-600k homes. In rural Ohio. When a major detail is misrepresented in the headline, it’s a hit piece. Crap local news.
I didn't know affordable housing was 300k and up for single person houses... In the original corporate BS for this was about three sections under that and rest as said average 300k and up. While literally advertising Dave's on area as a setting...
There wasn't no affordable housing and most of the citizens like Chappelle was against this... It was propaganda to up end the current community by a big housing market again trying to sell single house rooms for 300k average... Good job doing little news in actual reporting accurate information about this...
The PUD included approximately 1.5 acres for a number of units for low income residents.
At this point we can assume that if the media tells us something it’s already a complete lie.
This awful system and the rulers of this country are desperate to blame all of this systems problems on celebrities.
@@skdrennen I only recall seeing three units for low income and it wasn't the priority of the operation. As the focus on the more high prices ones was more detailed. To me it was obviously a giant caveat to try making good publicity while actually jacking prices by a housing corporation. Again half the council rejected before Dave even gave his opinion as many other community members where not happy with it either.
@@skdrennen “Dave Chappelle didn’t kill affordable housing. Concerned residents and a responding Village Council ‘killed’ a half-baked plan which never actually offered affordable housing,” said Carla Sims, a spokesperson for Chappelle.
Single-Family = 64, Duplexes (2-
& 3-Bedroom) = 52,
Townhomes = 24
Starting at mid-$200K
Yes - 1.75 acres for 20-30 Units
with Infrastructure & Village
Control
3 - high- & moderate-income
for sale + affordable types
More Preserved b/c Density
3.1 acres (playground &
wooded area)
Yes - paths connecting to
constructed wetland, wooded
areas, playground & throughout
neighborhood
Yes - 0.9 acres at Southgate
with easy access to rest of
You are right and I'm glad you responded! My friend lives in yellowsprings and also spoke against Oberer (the builder) at this meeting. I can't believe news stations are allowed to twist the truth and give false news out like this! Thanks!
Nice Terminology - 'Affordable Housing Development'
They mean, a HOUSING PROJECT!
And what invariably happens at these lower income Housing Projects, where tenants will never own their own houses/apartments?
They turn into crime, drug and violence ridden slums!
I lived near the Aliso Village Housing Project in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles - it was the worst slum in the city!
Finally, the city tore it down and created the Pueblo del Soul 'workforce housing' that were small, detached houses that could be purchased by lower and middle income owners. Violent Crime and Murders went way down.
No affordable housing are different than housing projects. So, WRONG.
@@missurielleshakirthesiren-3866 Sure, it is.....
I grew up in affordable housing, it isn't all nice people living there.
did you turn out ok?
@@ParallelTwinWings Lol
Living next to one isn’t nice either :/
@Brian Z Your more than welcome to have them surround where you live. Is living in a dangerous area really worth virtue signaling to prove how progressive are. Go! move to the cheapest area you can find and leave your doors unlocked.
I been around them even after moving out. It is NOT the "affordable housing" that people that are not nice. It is the culture of the housing and how it is operated. You Just Insulted Us.
Again the media only partially reporting the truth. Do your job and discuss the whole issue instead of trying to make this man look bad.
Well you have to remember that this is a Columbus news station and if I had to guess a reason why they’re only reporting parts of the truth it would be that whatever company is backing the development of that neighborhood probably also has some connections to local news stations. Also even though we perceive the news’ job as bringing us correct news, In reality their job is to get clicks, views, and watchtime. But Hey that’s just capitalism, The important thing isn’t doing what’s morally right, it’s making money through whatever means possible.
It must be nice to be rich 🤷🏽♀️
I'm not rich... but I agree with Dave on this one.
Don't have to be rich to acknowledge reality
Problem is all people want is UNaffordable homes to be built near them. Poorer folks are seen as high potential for criminality, constant police runs and high pressure on healthcare systems. Good old NIMBY rules.
@@willybones3890 Government should be making such deals anyway.
It's not Government's job to house anybody.
Chappelle knows the type of people who would be his new neighbors... not good!
So people that cannot afford expensive housing are "not good." You are evil. Have a nice day.
@@missurielleshakirthesiren-3866 he just doesn't want to look over his shoulder everyday when he goes to his car. He fought to get out of the hood ,why the hell would he want to bring the hood to him. How about people start raising their damn kids not to be thugs!
Who cares whether or not if they’re good? Having a roof over your head is the point I know plenty of people who live in affluent neighborhoods who are NOT!!! Good people. You guys are missing the forest for the trees, He’s a millionaire ten times over, he has his own farm, his own comedy club the point he’s living the dream and he found the time to come to the meeting to stop the development for low income people? You, well y’all in fact got to be some cold hearted people to think this was okay, Everyone is entitled to having a roof over they’re head and a chance to you know enjoy the simple pleasure of just living at peace Everyone!!! It’s not always going to be happy go lucky but having a place to stay can literally change someone’s life, so have a heart and stop condoning this.
Your absolutely right!!!¡!!
So affordable to you is 250k there were going to be 143 lots of which only 3 were going to be for "future" affordable housing plus it was in his back yard and taking pics of his home for advertising, if you had a farm would you want someone building 143 homes in your back yard stop being a hypocrite
@@BigCountry1 I think it was actually 300k per person.
@@VibeWithLuna yeah but the "affordable" 3 started at 250
I think cause he wasn’t considered about this development. The village was afraid of litigation from a $24 million company and not his $65 million company.
They put up a new school in my town and my taxes went from a thouand to $4400 a year and that didn't include a very long list of problems that only more money can fix and I could be wrong but if you build a new school to attract more families aren't they're gonna need a place to live?
Yep more taxes and crime .. is it worth it ??
As someone who grew up in "The gutter", was homeless multiple times as a child, and had drug addict parents, and then worked my a$$ off to become a productive member of society now as a young man. I can and will tell everyone most of these poor people really are poor by choice. They don't work, their drug addicts by choice, they live off the system, they leave trash everywhere, are violent, often mentally ill.
If you started every human off with ample opportunity and money, after ONE generation you would see a clear separation between people who are productive and clean and have values, and "savages" as they now proudly call themselves lol
Stop lying
Your statement needs to be repeated for everyone to hear loud and clear!
@@lsmythe007 Yes, self-rigtheous a-holes need to be exposed for what they are, thank yoy!
Yea they said affordable housing in Chicago to and they were then priced at 500,000 dollars and higher so much for affordable 🤷🏼♀️
Two days late on reply. But un-shockingly it's a similar situation if look into it. Average price of a single house unit lowest was set for $250K and up to $600K. Only three units actually in the failed proposal was slated for affordable and no price tag was even mentioned in it. Dave and the Community read the thing and saw it as bad for everyone except for the sellers aka house contractors.
The "news" playing defense for corporate by trying to play the out of touch rich comedian bit... Ignoring it didn't actually have affordable housing it was design to also mess with much of the current community.
$800 to $5,000 a month throughout Columbus! None of this is affordable to poor Americans who need $450/Month and under due to wages stagnant for over 45 years!
Lies... lies... lies... Looks like this developer has pull with the media.
The snipers putting Chapelle in the crosshairs.
Wow a very blatant lie considering the homes that they're trying to build in that area are more expensive than the majority of the homes in that entire county
It was not an affordable housing development.
Compare a similar sized areas crime rate, and tax rate that has affordable housing and ones that don't maybe he actually likes his town.
We all know there's a lot more nuance than that.
They know what kind of people these low income housing attract. That’s what they want because they don’t question or challenge anything. Just throw them a small check every month to keep them happy and wala! The government know controls you.
Its not low income housing first second he is just another rich asshole saying I got mine screw you. He is using the typical tactic of the the rich, do what I say or I will hurt you. Nothing new. Chappelle was cool in his younger years but he seems to get worse with age. I mean even his voice is worse now. Yellow Springs should tell him to take his shit and go. He went from telling jokes to becoming the joke.
Every American should have affordable housing. The average Americans pays half a million dollars in their lifetime to taxes. That’s almost 8 trillion dollars tax returns alone.. per generation. Death to capitalism, for it plagues our tax system.
White flight if that gets built
Do your homework before reporting. At best your "reporting" on this is misleading, at worst it is, well look into it then do a retraction/update what ever you want to call it. Of the almost 150 houses to be built only 3, yes 3, were supposed to be "affordable housing".
Affordable for who? This was all about single family house with some multi family housing. But it's all just going to be single family housing. NIMBYs are just selfish.period.
END HOUSING FIRST AND CLEAN UP LOW INCOME HOUSING
What, no tiny homes community in progressive Yellow Springs?
OMG REALLY what about food roof over your head?
So, I can see both sides to why ppl think bad and good of this. Good bc if he were to support affordable housing it’d just be another good made in another specific area. Bad bc why wouldn’t you want to help low income people have a food over their head? I try not to pick sides, but rather try to see different perspective on things and feelings from different people on the subject.
Where did it say anything about low income housing?
@@thackythac affordable housing tends to be for those only with low income. I thought that’s make sense considering the only people who’d really live in the homes would be those who have no other choice; but if they did, they wouldn’t choose to live in the trenches.
Okieee
Another reason people are abandoning corporate media. Nice Psy-ops Builders Association!😂
No George Floyds in his neighborhood….
Lies Lies Lies this reporter should issue correction or be fired....
Glad someone said something.
What's the names of the other donors who pulled thier money let's report the whole story
He knows what best eheh
So right not good for the hood
anyone thats for affordable housing..... go to your local ghetto and walk around for just an hour. Then see if you want your neighborhood turned into that!
Why does some comedian have a say in town/city politics? Keep to your stage davey, we have enough celebrities interfering already
Maybe look up the facts before speaking yourself. Dave lives there and in a open forum can speak. He was like majority in the community against it. It wasn't about affordable housing either as that was corporate propaganda.
Look into the failed contract denied that Dave, most of the community, and half the council was against. The "affordable" housing was only stated vaguely as 3 units out of hundreds and most being sold for low as 250k and up to 600k. Besides the housing company pushing this without consent of residents and before the denial by council. Was advertising Dave's backyard as a part to over sell single unit housing..
In essence the only out of touch and greedy was the housing company trying to use financial influence themselves on council. Dave in his own community has given millions to the schools and local businesses. He literally is a pillar in his own community and you being ignorant to that and damming him is corporate propaganda.
@@VanTesla darn, I shoulda known some random missing info about a random apartment in a random city. Your right I shoulda looked up this info I had no idea existed
@@angeredotter738 The sarcasm is palpable. As a olive branch I agree many celebrities are out of touch and get into things they shouldn't/don't know crap about. My criticism to you and to any who jump to conclusions is look into a thing instead of immediately making accusations. To be fair again I think every person jumps to quickly and especially when personal biases are involved.
I apologize for how heavy I went on you, but I hope if you read what I said. This be it intentional or not by this news station is propaganda and a hit piece. You like many immediately fell for it and got upset at Dave. Unknowingly doing exactly what the propaganda was design to do and in your response back to me you wash your hands.
Even I don't know every single detail and make mistakes similar to what you did. Still I believe it's better to own up and try not to repeat when can. Dave for example has done and said things I disagree with, but this instance if looked into is not one of them. I recommend be whatever your views are to try holding off till you gather more information to make a judgement.
Smash the Dislike button!
Everyone has something to say about low income/ poverty and the fact is that there is good and bad with all walk of life rich or poor. Just because you make less than another person doesn’t make you a criminal or a bad person. People need help all across the U.S right now. Everyone should be more compassionate towards the situation.
Nice Dave!! Ohio love!! Thanks
What a privilege to be him!
HUD? Is that code for I do drugs have 5 kids from 5 different men and 5 different races don't work so I deserve a free government funded house??? C'mon Americans were better than that!!!!
Now that Dave Chappelle is a millionaire many times over, I guess he is willing to play his class privilege card so he doesn't have to live near poor people.
it’s official he’s a MAGA lol
👎
Why Dave?
Let's take a look at some of the economic benefits of affordable housing.
More money spent in local communities. ...
Fewer evictions. ...
Healthier population means a healthier economy. ...
More affordable housing creates more job opportunities. ...
Improved government infrastructure. ...
Better opportunities for investing in the future.
Some of us will never have the opportunity to own a home and we aren't all horrible people. Shows how much fame has went to his head.
You are tricked by propaganda. He and majority of his community was against this. For one reason it wasn't affordable as average housing being suggested for a single person unit was 250k-300k low with high up to 600k out of the 300+ units being talked. Only three housing units was being suggested for future low income and no indication on price.
The company pushing this that failed also advertised without Dave or other community consent. His and others local homes as advertising before the city council decided against it. They also the city council was half in half though the majority of residents was against the plans as brought. The only wealthy out of touch was the not Dave, but the housing company who also started the smear campaign on him after failing.
Dave also has kept his community funded during the entire pandemic from schools, local businesses, and being a vocal community member at the community council meetings. In essence you are falling for corporate propaganda because of the lie of "affordable" housing and not mentioning why Dave and the community was against it.
Correction to my first comment. Not 300 units, but around 140 or so. Don't know why I thought and typed 300... Everything else is generally correct. If don't believe me as is online usually one shouldn't. I recommend looking into it instead of listening to a "reporter".
Look up the meeting in question as all documentation is public as an example.
Dave Chappelle....city planner now. Emphasis on PLANNER! Always good for a rich person to scream "we need a school" but then they'll fight any plan to raise taxes to support that school in the future. Schools are nice, they're awesome, but they also need funding. Affordable housing developments will provide said funding through federal programs.....hence PLANNING!!!
He wants his privacy. I believe celebrities of his caliber deserves exclusivity. There are plenty of other good neighborhoods in other areas.
No, he doesn't want his property value lowered and and influx of crime due to transient residents.
