[Massplanners] Housing Production vs. School Enrollment

[Richard McCarthy]

Good morning Leeann,



I’m happy to report we just passed high density housing in town center that
meets Housing Choice requirements.  We had a similar issue here.  What we
did was reach out to the School Department and have the run enrollment for
a few developments.  We only have one mixed use building so it is limited.
Another option is to reach out to whomever runs school enrollments
projections for the school system.  I did have them look at a couple of
development scenarios to give us some projections.



I would suggest reaching out to Bill Reyelt as well.  As I understand it
your neighbor Lakeville and another town are the only ones that met the 40S
requirements for payments.  Good luck.

Good Morning,



Looking for information on housing production v. school enrollment.  I have
MAPC’s October 2017 research brief with metrics but wondering if there is
anything a bit more recent.  Middleborough is now an MBTA community with a
new train station under construction.  We are TRYING to implement a 40R
overlay surrounding the train station but are having enormous pushback with
regard to a perceived explosion of children in the school system.  Thank
you so much.
