[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So let me get this straight - by upzoning the entire county, and being able to fit 2-4x more units in a single lot, they estimate the net increase in students to be 9-13 per year? Come on. What's the math behind that? This is a joke. The authors had a certain outcome in mind and just hand-waived away any actual tradeoff discussion.[/quote] Yeah it's farcical. They predict roughly 100 units will deliver each year, so basically each student only adds 0.1 students to APS. They used the student generation figures for orange line highrises and then applied that for housing in predominately SFH neighborhoods that have much higher student generation rates You should also note they did NOT use the student generation rate for affordable housing (0.45ish), even though that's probably the closest approximation. And let's not even start with their assumption that only 20 lots per year would be converted. . . [/quote]
