[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the staff fear drawing long narrow boundaries?[/quote] Because they aren't efficient and require more buses. Ashlawn's boundaries extend east into Clarendon, with buses that travel past or closer to ASFS, ATS, and actually even Glebe and Barrett to take kids to Ashlawn. Taylor's boundary stretches all the way to Rosslyn and kids pass Key and ASFS en route to Taylor. McKinley's boundary doesn't stretch as far, but has units much much closer to Glebe, Ashlawn, and/or ATS. If one of their goals is to promote walkability and decrease dependence on buses, then long and skinny boundaries are the antithesis of that.
