Dave Chappelle issues statement on threat to withdraw investments over Ohio housing development

Dave Chappelle is rejecting the notion that he did anything that wasn’t in the best interest of Yellow Springs, Ohio, where he lives, when he threatened to pull his investments over a potential new housing development in the area. The comedian voiced his concerns over a $39 million housing development at a Yellow Springs Village Council meeting on Monday, where he told the council that he would withdraw plans he has for the area if the development was approved. In a statement provided to Fox News Digital, representatives for the comedian explained the decision and why he believes it was in the best interest of the community. "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. Dave Chappelle discussed a housing development he's opposed to in Ohio.
