[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was reading an article in Bethesda Magazine about a Rockville City Council meeting on Rockville Town Center. It included this paragraph on comments by a councilmember: “But council member Mark Pierzchala warned that any development-related discussions or studies must include the possibility that the Richard Montgomery High School cluster is projected to go into a development moratorium, which would affect the city’s ability to approve additional development.”

Is this correct? Does this mean the cluster is close to being 120 percent overcapacity, which I understand is the limit for a building moratorium? If so, how can that be after opening a new elementary school in the cluster and additions to Julius West Middle School?  Did Montgomery County not plan appropriately when they built the new school/addition? Did the City of Rockville approve too much development in this cluster? I know there are other clusters that are way overcrowded, and I’m not trying to put RM over others. Just looking for answers to a problem that can’t seem to be fixed in this cluster.[/quote]

Your could be over crowded in HS and not be over crowded in MS/ES in the same cluster. [/quote]
