[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As previously stated, the change is only for the town center.  It’s not like the entire RM district would be changed.  You’re blowing this out of proportion.[/quote]

JWMS is projected to be overcapacity in a few years. They only just had an extension done a few years ago.

RMHS is already over capacity and will be more so in 2024.  Crown HS won't be built in 5 years. So, all the new builds will be adding to the already over capacity schools. I don't care if it's 5 or 10 or 20 new students.  They are already over capacity.  They shouldn't be building to add more. There is nothing to be done about people selling existing homes, but the city can certainly put a moratorium on new builds that will to an already over taxed school cluster.[/quote]

If it’s that bad maybe you should sell and move to Howard County.[/quote]
Why should I move?  Why shouldn't the council work with MCPS to keep the threshold at 120% instead of this one loon going for 150%?[/quote]

Work with the school board?  It’s the city’s job to decide what can be built.[b] We elected the council to build[/b].[/quote]
 You elected the council solely on the basis that they would build more housing units? Also, I didn't vote for the current city council members.

It's the city's job to listen to the residents of the city, too.

The school board has a limited budget. You act like they can just easily find the money to build more space.[/quote]

So what, you voted for the losers?  You didn’t live her during the last election?  You chose not to vote?  Which is it?  If you moved here, the. It seems strange you would choose a place where you dislike the policies.

Oh and guess what, Rockville is just trying to improve its business climate like MoCo is doing for Bethesda.  Where is the outcry about building out despite the moritorium there?
