Either: 1) they should directly subsidize neighborhood-serving retail, in the knowledge that tax revenues will then increase due to higher property values, or 2) they should foster the creation of neighborhood organizations empowered to do the same thing on a local level."

Oh, why did you have to announce the casting call? I was hoping it'd be a MtP thing (it being for scenes taking place in said neighborhood), now every Broseph McRoofies and Soros T. Tute from NoVa and Tenley is going to be flooding the damn thing... the smell of gym socks and after-morning regret will overpower the producers' senses and judgment.
