[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it funny that residents of this overwhelmingly UMC and white neighborhood who chose to buy overpriced houses in a congested city area with several existing schools are up in arms about a little more traffic at one of the school’s start and end times.  Give me a break.  Especially when there are far more illegally stopped and parked cars of parents dropping their kids off at Janney.[/quote]

LOL. Janney is a free for all.  Amazing that kids aren't run over every day there.  Crazy. Crazy.[/quote]

Nice deflection.  We are talking about GDS. [/quote]

The deflection in this case is by the ANC. They certainly should be keeping GDS accountable, but where is their outrage about driving and parking behavior around the public schools and other organizations within the boundaries of this ANC? GDS, in large part to their mistakes, has fallen easy prey to the Nimbys. [/quote]

Have they violated a clear agreement with the ANC? Do you even know the content of your agreement? PP above thought it was OK to park legally in the neighborhood, but that isn't entirely true, now is it?[/quote]

They violated their agreement with the zoning board. The city government. [/quote]

It seems that GDS failed to notify the government for its over-enrollment. GDS admin admits to this oversight.
There is disagreement about whether parents can drop off/pick up on Wisconsin Avenue. GDS parents were instructed to avoid drop offs and pick ups on the west side of Wisconisn. GDS maps show that the streets east of Wisconsin are OK for neighborhood parking. GDS parents are also allowed to use the parking meters along Wisconsin for drop off/pick up. 
Practically speaking, patrolling parking along Wisconsin Ave., a major artery through the city, is impossible. Focus on the side/residential streets on th[b]e east side of Wisconsin[/b].[/quote]

Sorry, I mean the WEST side of Wisconsin immediately adjacent to the campus.[/quote]
