Up next-Jeff Sullivan.

Yes please! His head should have rolled after the Damascus incident

Seth Adams is now senior VP of construction at Standard Solar in Rockville.

Yes, they are an MCPS contractor.

He was demoted first.

He was not demoted. He actually received a promotion from director to associate (now called deputy chief) last year.

I do not believe that everyone is talking about the same "he." The disgruntled employee posting about the job listings is not Seth Adams. Seth Adams was not demoted

And he was demoted and resigned. He is Seth Adams.

And now we know why he was booted. Massive screw up at Woodward.

"MCPS has been informed that we will not be receiving $39.3 million in State Aid that was expected due to errors in calculating prevailing wage and bid award across the multiple phases of the project."

What does this mean for Woodward- which is not complete?

Thursday morning there's a facilities and boundaries presentation and work session. Maybe we will find out then.

The letter in the new CIP says they're requesting an "Increase of $28 million to construct Phase 3 of the building, including fit out of the auditorium and other associated spaces" at Woodward.

They are also reallocating money that was supposed to be spent elsewhere for CIP items. So the shortfall will impact more than just Woodward.

And parents. He’s the ass who lied about student projections and treated parent groups presenting their data as idiots. He was a HUGE problem.

Yes, I would like the "why?" scuttlebutt

Why were a bunch of high level jobs in Adams' office, including his vacant job, posted? Did MCPS clear out the whole department's leadership?

Specifically, there are 4 Director positions posted -
Dept. of Transportation
Division of Maintenance and Operations
Division of Grounds and Athletic Infrastructure
Division of Planning, Design, and Construction.

Fantastic!
