The District is preparing for the military parade celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and falls on President Trump's 79th birthday. The procession features thousands of soldiers and 70-ton tanks and will require roads to close around the city as well as DCA airport. City officials are worried about what all of this heavy machinery could mean for local streets and infrastructure. At-Large D.C. Councilmember Christina Henderson joined the show to weigh in.Plus, she discussed the Council wanting more time to approve the RFK stadium deal. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser included a billion dollars for a new Washington Commanders football stadium in her proposed budget, which she unveiled late last month. The Mayor has said the Council needs to approve the deal and the budget by July 15, or the city risks the team backing out.But some councilmembers, including Henderson, wants to deal with RFK stadium separately. She said six weeks isn't enough time to review the complex deal."We need the opportunity to do due diligence. And what I would say to the Commanders, if they're listening, is that I would say the vast majority of my colleagues have not said no," Henderson said, "And it is in your best interest that we get this right."Last week, Prince George's County elected Aisha Braveboy in a special election for county executive. The county's former State's Attorney got behind the mic to discuss her top priorities, including the need to unify the county government. She said she's in alignment with the council and has an excellent relationship with the school board. Another focus of her administration will be getting local government agencies on the same page, especially when it comes to telework policies."You know, it's very different from agency to agency, which I think creates a morale issue. It also creates a productivity issue," Braveboy said. "And I want people to be more oriented to come into the office to work collaboratively with their colleagues and also serve the public a little bit more efficiently."Plus, Braveboy discussed the resignation of Prince George's County Schools Superintendent Millard House and her naming Shawn Joseph as the interim as a nationwide search gets under way.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

If you enjoy this newsletter, it would mean the world to Jola and I if you encouraged one friend/fellow immigrant/colleague to subscribe…Very likely, the the only thing you will get in return is warm fuzzy feelings, and if I can attribute it to you, I'd personally send you a thank you email.Join us as we explore the bitter-sweet world of the immigrant.In this episode, I'm speaking with the amazing journo, Alyanna Denise Chua, who moved from Philippines to Canada in 2019 to study at University of Toronto.One of my biggest gripes with the dominant immigrant conversation is we often seem to disregard the human in the loop. Policies change overnight (for good reasons they say), and suddenly folks who have followed all the rules find themselves stranded.That is Alyanna's story. She moved to Canada, paid 10X the fees of domestic students to study, excelled academically, gained Canadian work experience, and integrated into the country.She did everything the immigration system told her to do. But by the time she graduated, Canada had moved the goalposts. The same pathway that led to permanent residency now led to... uncertainty.In this conversation, Alyanna and I explore what it felt like to watch the rules change. We also explore:* Missing home while building a new life* Immigrating as a student vs. a PR* Why Canada's rhetoric shifted from “we want you to stay” to “study doesn't guarantee residency”* The unfairness of retroactive rule changes* How Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie inspired her journalism careerOfficial Links✅ Connect with Alyanna Denise Chua on LinkedIn✅ Read her piece on The Walrus; Pay Tuition, Follow the Rules, Then Pack Your BagsOne AskIf you found this story helpful, please forward or share it to one immigrant out there.

The organization raised money for the city's parks and open spaces as well as serving as an umbrella organization for about 80 community groups that managed public parks and projects.

Public officials are calling for investigations into where millions of dollars went that should have been spent on parks. We'll talk about what went wrong, what's at stake for the city's outdoor areas, and what could happen next.

Imagine the convenience of grabbing dinner as you walk home from work or powering through the afternoon slump with a stroll around the park. When you live intown, those dreams can be your everyday reality! Derek Turner, owner and president of The Middle Housing Company, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss intown living and his new community, Knight Walk at Howell Station in West Midtown. Intown Living: Connection and Convenience Turner said, “Intown living is increasingly appealing because it offers a lifestyle that's built around convenience and connection.” The idea of walkable living is a major draw for many homebuyers and renters moving to the city. Mixed-use developments are popping up all over the metro area, bringing together restaurants, office spaces, shopping and residential opportunities. Intown living offers this same convenience for residents to walk to work, live near cultural venues and save time in their daily routines. Balancing Affordability in An Urban Climate Turner says creative design is the key to building affordable homes in the city. He starts with a smaller footprint that allows for higher-density housing and a lower cost per unit. Turner emphasizes that, while infrastructure and land costs remain high intown, the demand for walkable living makes it desirable to build there. Which homebuyers are gravitating toward the intown lifestyle? Turner identifies dual-income, millennial couples and higher-earning, single professionals as major buying groups for intown communities. These buyers seek a shorter commute to the city, especially when one or both residents work intown. While the monthly payments are relatively pricey, the savings on gas and time often override the cost. Knight Walk at Howell Station The Middle Housing Company recently opened for sales at its new, intown community, Knight Walk at Howell Station. Located in one of northwest Atlanta's historic neighborhoods, this community is nestled near Westside Paper and the Atlanta Beltline-connected Spur Trail. Knight Park, a historical greenspace, is just minutes from the community. Howell Station is long-renowned for its mixed architectural styles, including bungalows, craftsman-style, Victorian and Colonial revival residences. During the 1800s, it was developed around the Western Atlantic Railroad stop in Atlanta and still displays its industrial roots. “We drew from that architecture,” said Turner. “The brick, the concrete board, the darker palette, some of those industrial tones,” said Turner. “We want it to feel authentic to the neighborhood.” What can homebuyers expect to see at Knight Walk at Howell Station? Every home is an end unit! Instead of building traditional townhomes with four, six or eight units in a row, Turner opted for building townhomes in sets of two residences to maximize natural light and provide ample outdoor living. Each home is 1,400 square feet and boasts 14 windows, creating an open, inviting living space. Residents also enjoy 8-foot-deep covered porches that allow maximum outdoor living with plenty of space for outdoor furniture. “We made zero concessions when it comes to natural light,” said Turner. “It's an amenity here.” Community Influence on Smart Housing Solutions With innovation, discussion and pushback often occur. Turner points out that he appreciates collaboration because it holds him accountable and encourages conversations. When The Middle Housing Company is working to remedy zoning issues or trying to get a project approved by local officials, it approaches those concerns with flexibility and a willingness to meet conditions effectively. Thinking about putting down roots in Atlanta's west side? Tune in to the full episode to learn more about intown living.

Residents of a Clare housing estate are reportedly afraid to allow their children out by themselves due a growing anti-social behaviour problem. Fine Gael Councillor Mary Howard has called for vegetation to be cut back at the entrance to Elm Park in Ennis amid reports of alcohol consumption and other "unsavoury" behaviour at the site. Ennis Municipal District claims the remains of a tree in the area knocked by Storm Éowyn have now been removed while it says any known instances of anti-social behaviour are to be reported to the Gardaí. Councillor Howard says people trying to raise their families shouldn't have to put up with these issues outside their own homes.
In what is becoming an annual occurrence, numerous fires across at least three Canadian provinces are putting Indigenous nations residents at risk. The 3,000 citizens of the Mathias Colomb Cree Nation are affected by evacuations because of the fires. They are among the estimated 30,000 people forced to flee from some 200 wildfires. Many, like the Sandy Lake First Nation, had to be airlifted to safety. At one point, workers took refuge against the smoke and flames for several hours in a shipping container. Smoke from the fires are also degrading air quality in northern U.S. states. We'll find out what is on the minds of Indigenous people affected by the fires and what long term solutions might be in store.

Back in the late '80s and '90s, people craved solitude. Their homes weren't gathering spots—they were safe havens from the chaos of the world.And now?That need for peace and quiet is louder than ever.So why are we still spending big money on events and amenities that only 10% of residents use?Is it really about resident experience? Or are we building to please ourselves—our optics, our egos, our need for buzz?Maybe the real win is designing for the quiet majority—those who come home to rest, not party. Maybe it's time to stop over-programming and start understanding.Let's rethink what “resident experience” truly means.
In West Sacramento, California, an unlikely team of firefighters is helping save homes from wildfire. They have four legs, love to eat, and bleat when they're happy. If you haven't guessed already, we're talking about goats! When flames raced toward a condo complex in 2022, the fire suddenly stopped. Residents credit the goats who had recently cleared the area of dry grass and brush. Tim Arrowsmith owns over 4,000 goats that graze across northern California. His herds devour fire fuels that would otherwise help blazes spread.In his documentary producer John Chipman explores how this novel approach to wildfire prevention works. He also asks why goat grazing isn't more common in Canada, where officials are skeptical of these cute furry firefighters.Produced John Chipman and Joan Webber with help from Catherin Rolfsen / Originally aired on What on Earth Storylines is part of the CBC Audio Doc Unit
