180 of the 495 housing units in this proposed development would be over 55 units. Those people will be adding to the town's tax base without adding children to the school system.

At a rate that's lower than other forms of housing.

Also that leaves 315 units for potential families getting dumped into one school district.

I'm not saying it can't be dealt with, just that it's a concern.

I don't think very many families would be piling into the studio/1bd apartments in these buildings, which leaves only some 2bds. It's not a genuine concern so much as it's a common way for towns to block new development.
