[quote=Anonymous]I think it is ironic, if true, that they are thinking of using the Carlin Springs parcel for affordable housing. The whole point of affordable housing is to provide an opportunity for middle class families who otherwise couldn't afford to live here. So ostensibly it's to remedy socioeconomic stratification on some level. But if the public schools are no longer considered a viable option by most people, we'll have an urban style school system with the uber rich, who can afford private school, and people at the other end of the spectrum who may not have many options. Without viable, quality public schools, a whole lot of people in the middle will view Arlington as unaffordable anyway, regardless of how much affordable housing we have. [/quote]
