[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all continue to vote for this by landslide margins every single election yet run to this forum and Facebook to complain about it.

There are lots of people right here in this thread excited to see SFZ end in Alexandria tonight, and maybe it's even part of the reason we voted for these folks?

It should bring some incremental tax revenue to the city and at least some additional affordable units, and the only costs are the mental hardship of folks who think living next door to a 4-plex that looks like a house world ending. That's the kind of common sense trade off I'm happy to vote for.[/quote]

You are bad at math.

If an average lot in Del Ray had 4.2 people in 2020, and now has 7.3 people in 2025, where do those extra children go to school? Where do the extra cars park? Where do those people shop? Where does the fecal matter those people generate go? Who treats it, especially on a system that currently dumps it INTO THE RIVER?

You don't just add people to an elevator because you think its 'fair'. There is a capacity, both in terms of comfort and safety.[/quote]
