Make your case for walkability, make your case for how certain areas are part of a community.  But do not pretend moving the elementary school assigned to your real estate from 2 blocks to 8 is as serious a problem as what is going on elsewhere in the city.  It just isn't and no one is buying that this is all about walkability (especially the parent that states she will have to go from walking her child to school before she drives to work to driving her child to school and then driving to work).  The children that move into the house you someday sell wil be just fine and your real estate value will recover.

I do not support the rezoning but I am sick of the crisis about a few block shift of families not even in the schools yet to a, wait for it, very good school.

You cannot accept that it makes sense and anybody looking at a map thinking that recrowding was going to force zone changes could easily have identified the general areas that were identified in the proposal as the most likely to be rezoned.  I am sorry, but when I looked at my house I thought "hey there is no other school anywhere near us so pretty safe in the event of rezoning" and I bought over a decade ago.[/quote]
