[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As previously stated, the change is only for the town center.  It’s not like the entire RM district would be changed.  You’re blowing this out of proportion.[/quote]

Anywhere where the TC kids go would be impacted. JWMS would be impacted. The TC development would impact either Beall or BRES.  The South Pike development would impact Bayard Rustin ES. And under MCPS new FAA policy, BOE might decide to move kids from BRES to say RPES, Beall, or even CGES.

The town center is at Beall.  The projections after the move gave it at only 80% capacity so it is fine.[b]  There won’t be many kids living in condos in Rockville anyway.[/b]  It’s not Bethesda or DC.[/quote]

That is the mCPS line and it is NOT TRUE.  Yes, kids do live in condos.  [/quote]

Of course kids live in condos.  Just not many.  I rented in the town center, got married, had kids, moved to a pre-existing (not new build) SFH close to the town center.  When I lived in the town center there were very few children living there and we wanted a house and yard.  I’m unconvinced that condos will drive that many kids to Rockville.  People with kids don’t buy condos.  They either buy houses, townhouses, or rent garden style apartments.

Will some kids be in the condos?  Yes.  But there won’t be many.  I’d love to see where you are getting this evidence that condos are brimming at the seams with kids.[/quote]
