[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was at the meeting and am appalled how selfish and truly un-neighborly and un-community oriented the residents who are objecting to the pool are acting.

I am sure these people have no problem parking close to Tenleytown or Cleveland Park to shop, eat, use the metro or library but want to keep us out of using the one space that a Ward 3 pool is possible.

It is truly disgusting.

The same thing happened around the renovation of Hearst.  A small group of vocal neighbors protested the design and as a result it had to be redesigned to remove a much-needed service road.  The good of the entire school was sacrificed for the demands of the few.

As a resident in the neighborhood, I hear mostly support of the pool from others.  The group that attends these meetings does not represent the voice of the community.[/quote]

+1 These people screaming at meetings need to accept they live in an urban environment and that there will be changes to their surroundings. [/quote]
