[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just out of curiousity, all you Lynnbrook booster(s) - how many of you are there and how many of you live in Rock Creek Hills?

I have no dog in this fight, but I don't see the inherent advantage of Lynnbrook over RCH - if anything, the Kensington neighborhood has less congestion and will be easier to access, plus the site is larger. So what's the hangup?[/quote]

I don't have a dog in this fight either. I don't live in Kensington, nor do I live near the Lynnbrook site, but after all this discussion I drove by there. I have to concur that it would be a good site for a middle school because as one poster said, it has few trees, a lot of parking lot and a couple (actually I think 3) decrepit buildings. I can't imagine tearing those down would be as much of a loss as building in what is now a park (I drove by RCH park also). I don't understand why the Lynnbrook site was eliminated in the last go round in spring. Why is MCPS protecting that site? Anybody??[/quote]

I went to a meeting about this - the reason Lynnbrook was eliminated is the site's usable acreage is just 8.5 acres. The County would prefer 20 for a middle school, but will go to 10. 8.5 is just too small. [/quote]
