✅Who benefits

Renters seeking new market-rate housing, the school district as seller, and the city's tax base.

⚠️Who could be affected

Residents of the adjacent River Hills and surrounding single-family neighborhoods, who fear traffic, safety impacts near the park and bus stop, and loss of their green-space view.
