NASA should only allow NASA related tenants.

Where are the kids going to go to school? How are they going to traverse 101? Right now, it is a nightmare on Mathilda in Sunnyvale?
It should be noted that some employees, private and military, receive a per diem payment that in one case was $5000.00 per month for the cost-of-housing disparity..

Not all NASA civil servants or contractors have kids. I don't, and if I manage to win a slot, I plan to stay on-campus during working hours.
Also, NASA civil servants do *not* receive any stipend for housing. Heck, we don't even receive free drinking water - yes, thanks to the toxic groundwater plume, we have to chip in every month out of our own pockets for a bottled water service.

The 2000 housing plus a planned retail space is brilliant to bring together the housing and shopping needs within reach and hence reduce the commute and driving. As a former NASA civil servant, I enjoyed the onsite childcare. I’m hopeful that childcare is part of the Ames plan. Great job you guys!
