[quote=Anonymous]Ward 3 will fight any affordable or public housing faster and harder than they will fight boundary changes. There is one housing authority site in all of upper NW and its for Seniors (cause you know, those are the less threatening poor folks). They fight affordablity in many ways including fighting any building where the height would trigger mandatory inclusionary zoning. They fought apts on top of the new Tenley library cause they new it would bring lower income kids and crowd their prcious Janney. There is zero political will to push for an equitable distribution of public housing. And yes, the boundary changes will survive a legal battle. The vast majority of schools in the country are de facto segragated due to living patterns. So unless DC is going to start forcing busing of Ward 3 kids to eastern, then there is no legal way to enforce divserity at Wilson.[/quote]
