YELLOW SPRINGS, Ohio — In the wake of Monday’s village council vote, Oberer Homes said Thursday it plans to move forward with its Yellow Springs housing development, and Dave Chappelle responded to criticism of his involvement in the debate.
Chappelle released a statement through a spokeswoman Thursday, saying he was not against affordable housing, but felt the proposed housing development on 53 acres of land was not good for Yellow Springs.
“Dave Chappelle didn’t kill affordable housing. Concerned residents and a responding Village Council ‘killed’ a half-baked plan which never actually offered affordable housing,” said Carla Sims, a spokesperson for Chappelle.
