[quote=Anonymous]Let's not forget there is a rezoning going on as well. In the popular school neighborhood of Murch and Janney the school zone borders will change. This concerns a significant group of parents / families. These people are the among the closest to Murch or Janney respectively, like literally 2- 3 blocks away. Their newly assigned school would be Hearst, which is one mile away. Say goodbye to walkability In the choice set their schools would be: Hearst (at 1 mile), Eaton (at 1.4 miles) and Oyster (at 2.7 miles)!!!! what on earth can this mean in terms of proximity, walkability, neighborhood preference?? Furthermore, these families are a stone's throw away from Deal as middle school. Because of the rezoning to Hearst at one block away, their middle school would be Hardy at 2.7 miles!! What kind of urban planning disaster is this?[/quote]
