Comedian Dave Chappelle is in the news after he threatened to pull millions of dollars of investments from his hometown of Yellow Springs, Ohio if the town went forward with a plan to build affordable housing. Chappelle has plans for a restaurant and a comedy club there. He spoke briefly before a council meeting this week and said he’d pull it all off the table if a plan to build one-point-seven-five acres of more affordable housing was approved. It wasn’t. The council rejected the plan and instead agreed to build 143 single family homes with a starting price of 300-thousand dollars.
