[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like the George Mason neighborhood has an ally in their NIMBY-ism: https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2023/01/28/curry-family-opposes-plan-to-add-multi-family-housing-near-atherton-abode/ Everything needs to be on the table. It's been a couple of years since housing at GM was proposed. Wilson, City Council and school board should try again. I hope that the last election emboldened them so they don't need to hedge or hide their views. A rumor going around town is that the George Mason kids will be moved permanently to MacArthur district and housing will be built at GM. It's a [u]rumor[/u] and it would take a lot of work on the george mason deed to make it happen but why not? George Mason has a tiny population and MacArthur will have the space. Single Family Zoning is soon to be a thing of the past in Alexandria. Everything is aligned. Wilson has a mandate to be bold and the neighborhood supports him. [/quote] I cannot imagine ACPS has the property to give up George Mason as a school. It makes no sense when you consider that ACPS has converted an office building to be an elementary school. [/quote] Agree, that is not happening. These are baseless rumors.[/quote] That's what the city, school board and superintendent said about housing on school grounds too. Then it was revealed that they all knew and had been talking about it in public meetings for months. I'm sure some people would say that GM potentially becoming a K-8 is a rumor too. But those people don't watch school board meetings. I've seen a lot from ACPS. Anything is possible. [/quote] They are not going to get rid of any schools. Not happening.[/quote]
