[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in Westover and am floored by the half dozen senior citizens who are obsessed with literally four trees. They are calling to put the project on hold, after having started to pay attention to a years-long process literally a week ago. They don't speak for me and are definitely the problem.[/quote]

Yes.  They do not represent the neighborhood or the community.  They are all older busybodies and seem to forget we are building a school, not a park.  I was at the meeting for awhile and, although I came in late, I still got the just of what was going on.  APS is actually planting more trees than are required by the county, but that isn't good enough.  And, of course, other old people who paid no attention until now are all too happy to get riled up.  I can't wait until the board the approves the design so they can focus their late-to-the-party-have-no-idea-how-the-process-worked activism on something else.  [/quote]

haha - I live near the Safeway in Bluemont (the one off Wilson and George Mason) and it's the same there. NIMBYs killed a new Safeway because they wouldn't allow ANYthing to go on that site. No negotiations. So... we live with a subpar grocery store where the refrigeration goes out once a month. [/quote]

Soviet Safeway is an institution![/quote]
