[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a Great Falls resident, but I do think there were remarks early on by SB members that might have made one think they were on the chopping block.

And, to the poster a few pages back about the developers and Langley. That is absolutely true--we had a neighbor that moved to one of those developments on the Herndon side of RT 7 because it was zoned for Langley.  That was their reason for moving there.  Honestly, I was a little insulted--and I didn't even have a kid in school yet.[/quote]

I just don’t understand why people are okay with developers getting a hand out, then having the current residents hold the bag.  If developers received a premium for the house back in the 90s, then an equivalent decrease would only hurt the current residents, who had nothing to do with shady back room deals of the 90s[/quote]

The BOS likes the tax money.  That simple.  Not complicated.[/quote]

This.  As long as the county openly and transparently changed the boundaries in the 90s because it wanted to get more tax revenue, there's nothing illegal about it.  If some planning or SB official got bribed, ti would be a different story, but there's no evidence that ever happened.

But it also doesn't mean the resulting boundaries are any more set in stone than any other school boundaries in FCPS.  [/quote]
