Reply to comment by restricteddata in How should parents weigh BOE candidates? by R_At1antis

I expect developers to want taxes to be as low as possible regardless of impact to schools in order to sell more units - most new units are not big enough to accommodate families.

That said I don’t get the impression that the Change for Children candidates are operating in bad faith; I just don’t have a good way to evaluate the risks they may pose.

Yeah, I assume they don't want higher taxes, but I was wondering if there was a more direct benefit, e.g., some kind of project they are trying to get through.

Given that they would still be a minority of the BOE, it seems unlikely that they'd be able to enact a nefarious developer agenda anyway, if one existed.
