The UPoR shame parade continued yesterday with Foundation for the Carolinas frontman Michael Marsicano playing the “faith” card. Houses of worship should get behind inclusionary zoning don’t you know, otherwise all the mindless — faithless? — NIMBYs will carry the day.
This from a guy who willingly cashes millions in hot checks from Golden West Wachovia Wells Fargo and Countrywide Bank of America.
Here’s an idea, the Foundation can put its money where Marsicano’s mouth is: Buy that seven-acre parcel in Ballantyne, try to get it rezoned on its merits for multifamily housing, and then hand it over to CHA — which can then attempt to build low-income apartments there.
