[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is wrong with the message? Really? There are huge numbers in Alexandria of blacks in AH that shouldn't be there. Working age males routinely involved in violent gun battles. Something like 30 calls for gunshots in the last 18 months. That is who he is talking about and everyone in this city knows this. Had he said "deserving whites" we wouldn't even be talking.[/quote] Nothing in the proposal he was speaking about impacts current dedicated affordable housing units or who is able to live in them. The existence of generational affordable housing, which seems to impact Black families more than other racial groups, should be addressed but the upzoning proposals are not a place for that discussion. Rather, joint programs between ARHA, the schools, and other departments focused on jobs need to identify and address cases where any family of any race struggles to have the means to leave affordable housing over the course of years or generations.
