[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don't think they have the money to build Crown.[/b] Its not just the one time build expense but the debt service that is taken on to pay it off. The county doesn't have the money. The debt service is already too high and the county is looking at service cuts or raising taxes just to tread water.

Inexplicably, the residents in the east side of the county seems to be very supportive of the Kirwan commission report which proposed to reallocate state money (collected from Montgomery County property tax) to Baltimore which would create a 20%-70% reduction to the MCPS operating budget. This will put any construction project on indefinite hold for a long time.

It was stupid for the BOE to make this diversity priority. In light of the budget issues, they will have no choice but to look at boundaries from a utilization standpoint which may or may not give MCPS the SES demographics it wants. The alternative to keep kids in highly over enrolled and under enrolled schools while the BOE harms real estate values with their empty threats or promises depending on which cluster you are in...[/quote]

Yes, they do.

Also, MCPS does not pay for school construction out of its operating budget.[/quote]
