Thats over 3/4 million per family to be relocated. SAHA is soooooo ed up. I do business with them and they can't take care of the property they already have.
This idea sucks ass.

They move out ther to get away from those people/
Hey dude, I'm sorry I'd rather build my vocabulary than flop my penis around on Spurstalk, but thats the way it is. I used that word specificaly because I knew you'd go to your tired "Manny uses words with more than 3 syllables to look smart" schtick. I guarntee you that I don't need long words to feel smart when I'm up against you.
It absolutely is forgien to them and they display complete ing ignorance. If you show me proof that a few hundred people is going to cause a noticeable change in crime rates and property values then you might have a case but the fact these residents are in an uproar over a few people that are different makes it TEXTBOOK xenophobia. It is stereotypical nonsense.
Oh and asshole, if you're going to try to keep your words simple then mix in a period ever now and again. That last paragraph was a to read.
For the record, I have my doubts on whether or not this is the better financial move for SAHA, but thats the only consideration there is for me. I couldn't care less if some schmucks are afraid of having someone wearing Pay Less shoes walking on their nice Stone Oak sidewalks.
Edit:again at "its not xenophobia its just rich people fearing poor people"
Is this just a shock value post or what?
What's "your kind"? Assholes?I'd probably only want to roll with my kind
You are afraid that people that are in drug rehab might eventually do something to you?
What about the rich people that have all the drugs they want and aren't in rehab? Those people are cool because they have money?
Senseless.
I get most people's point (on both sides) in this thread. But your posts are funny.
A ed up front yard next door to your house can lower your property value, what the do you think low income housing next door would do to it?Hey dude, I'm sorry I'd rather build my vocabulary than flop my penis around on Spurstalk, but thats the way it is.

Edit:
Since Katrina, crime rates have gone up by 55% in SA, I know that the population didn't increase by 55%.........oh, and guess what, these people live in low income housing.
Property values in the immediate are will lower, that's a fact........I'm not sure about crime increasing in the area but if I'm a prospective buyer, I'm sure as not buying a house next door to that.......Rich people, and I use that term as loosely as possible because you don't have to be rich to live in the area, but they don't fear poor people, they just don't want to live next door to them, that's why they buy houses way up north, to get away from it.
The funny thing about this is that they picked apartment complexes on the golf course. Marquis at Legends, I believe the cheapest one bedroom apartment goes for around $850. It's an odd choice.
Personally, I think that everyone who makes less money than me is a worthless piece of .
Every time you play the south course during the summer, after the 10th and 17th hole you get to see hot chicks hanging out in the pool, now I'll have to see some poor shmoe who doesn't pay taxes lounging around in his Under Armor shirt yelling, "we will protect this house".
NorCal's moving to San Antonio?
Damn dude, I'm just overflowing with sympathy for you.
White collar crime>>>Blue collar crime
Well, I own a house in Stone Oak and if this is going to with my property value, I will do everything in my power to stop it.
Own a house Manny, then you'll understand.
Funny, judging by your argument on why this is ok with you, it seemed like you were overflowing with something else.........
There is no if
I love my lower class neighborhood because while my neighbors may not have a lot of money they more than make up for it with class.
See, call the SAHA and tell them that these folks need to stay in the classy areas then.
Feel free, I never said you shouldn't. But why should the city value your concerns more than the poor mans or the rest of the tax payers? As I said, if it makes fiscan sense for the city then thats more important than the property values of a select few. (And if your property values are going to start moving down based on a few hundred people then I really wonder what the is actually driving them up to begin with? Is Stone Oak really such a marginal place to own a home that such a small thing would impact property values so much?) Where do you draw the line? No one wants to deal with the unpleasent aspects of our society and usually the people that get their way are the people with the type of money that buys a house out in Stone Oak. Thats why there are no power plants in Stone Oak. Thats why there are no landfills in Stone Oak. Thats why the property values of Stone Oak residents are more important than any other consideations.
Be in a position where you need section 8 housing because owning a house is out of your readch, then you'll understand.
I remember the looks our family got when we were the first non-white family to move into the neighborhood back in the 60's. I'm sure people were thinking that WE were going to make their property values go down and it NEVER happened.
I guess the more things change the more they stay the same.
I know this isn't about race but it hurts just the same when you are the ones not welcome.
Classism is the new racisim. Its not really about the browns/whites anymore, its more aobut the haves and have nots.
They shouldn't value anyone's opinion more then others. However, if they were to build these things say in a different area of town, then no one would complain, however, by starting this process, they have upset a large demographic, a large TAX PAYING demographic in fact. So if you were in SAHA's shoes, would you want to upset no one, or rather a large group of people like this is doing?
Last I looked, there aren't any power plants in much of San Antonio unless you count Calaveras, and that is pretty far removed from everyone. There are no landfills because the aquafer is right under stone oak, God knows you can't dump trash into the ground right over the aquafer.
Your arguments for this are weak.
As far as nobody complaining if it were in another part of town, I would say wherever they decided to put it, the people there would complain.
Wasn't there a similar issue with a new SAMM shelter somewhere along 1604 on the Northside that got people upset (I want to say Huebner-area, maybe inside the loop)?
The choice of Marquis at Legends is making more sense now. Though it's on the golf course, it's infested with mold and has 31% recommended rate from tenants and they are having a hard time renting out the units.
But if they are only putting 64 families there, what do they need two buildings with 350+ units each for?
I think I would be more upset at SAHA now.
