[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was posted on another thread, but I thought there might be people interested here as well.

The Affordable housing being crammed onto the western end of the Pike is of huge concern to all of the nearby neighborhoods. 
If you live in Alcova heights, Douglas Park, Columbia Forrest, Nauck, Barcroft, Clarmemont etc... You need to make your voices heard. 
There is a community meeting of the Concerned Citizens Group meeting on May 27, 7:30pm at Arlington Mill Community Center. 
There is another meeting at Rappanhanock Coffee on June 1 at 10am. 
Time is running out for us to voice our opinions and concerns. There are decisions being made that will impact our schools, property values and quality of life for decades to come. I urge people to make the time to be there.

Barcroft is really struggling, and if your child isn't zoned for that school it will likely be your problem soon. The proposed policies of the Arlington county board will cause these issues across all of south Arligton. This is not about being against affordable housing, this is about how we are accomplishing our goals as a county. The affordable housing lobby is very organized, very loud, and not concerned with the welfare of middle class arlingtonians and their children's education. We have to start advocating for ourselves. If not that board will take our silence as consent. Please try and make one of the two meetings.

North Arlington resident here who fled Alexandria. I tell you people that diversity is overrated, and you don't listen. No, you attack. And then, when you discover that diversity isn't the Benetton ad of your fantasies, you freak out. Sheesh.[/quote]

Nothing like having a couple of kids who might have to go to school with the browns and the poors to bring out your inner racist, eh?[/quote]

Woah, you appear to be replying to yourself. Did you mean to call yourself a racist?

No, it was a mistake. An added thought. I hit reply to the wrong answer.[/quote]
