While I can see the need for low income housing I think that the location at schools is bad? Remember Gov Waihee's attempt to provide low income housing out in rural camps? Big failure because the housing wasn't located close to city and state services needed by low-income people. The best place for low income is near a lot of government offices like in town. 

And I wonder why the city and the state have never gotten together and re-organized the DOE night school program with the City Rec program and the UH non-credit program? We could call this Community Education and located it at some school with a lot of land. For example Aiea high school and the Aiea Rec Center are adjacent to two major city parks. This gives Aiea High School ample space for sports programs including the swimming pool at the rec center. 

I've often wondered why the city and the state and the UH could not get together and provide a 24 hour staff support for operating the high school and the rec center facilities.
