I don't think the conflict here is simply between the neighbors and penn. I think the conflict is also to be found in shca's hesitancy to stand up for the neighbors it claims to serve, to stand by its mission statement wrt zoning. In all fairness -- and it's no secret that I'm not exactly a fan of SHCA, let alone its defender -- the organization went on record at the open meeting of its zoning committee last month that it wouldn't come to a determination until discussions between the Woodland Terrace people and the developers were concluded. Presumably either having reached a compromise that would work on both parts on not. While it appears unlikely that any such compromise is in the offing -- because the concessions the developers appear ready to give do not address what the opponents consider the fundamental problems -- the delay in the zoning committee's decision to endorse, oppose, or take no stand should not be interpreted one way or the other. In fact, a decision reached before both parties to the compromise negotiations have presented their conclusions would be a mistake on SHCA's part.
