We, NIMBYs, were at the April meeting. I am a Ward 7 resident and have concerns about the streetcar's continuation into the ward. We brought up the questions about the CBT location. It is unfortunate that conversations about concerns devolve into "where were you?" and NIMBYism.

It would have been helpful at the April meeting for DDOT to expressly say that its upcoming RFI includes a commitment (not just studying) the Ward 7 extension, that the car barn shouldn't be considered a terminus but a railyard (although hopefully MLD's comparison with Brentwood won't take 10 years to build the next leg), and what the direct conversations with NPS, EHN, other stakeholders about siting at RFK and Pepco have entailed.

Hopefully, at the next quarterly meeting DDOT will give this information and truly make the community a partner in the return of the streetcar.
