[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering the county has a hard time finding new space for schools, I think the Ag reserve and other green spaces should be on the table for new school construction.  MoCo cant on one hand keep green lighting housing projects then claim there is no land to build new school to absorb the new students.  They need to find a way to make it happen and it might involve some hard choices.[/quote]

[b]The developers should be required to give over the land they own and profit from to the infrastructure needed [/b]because they are building homes. Leave the Ag alone. Developers don't get to say -- oops we used all this land of ours to build houses, but we forgot people need schools, and groceries, and utilities, and play space, so give up MORE land from our essential agricultural reserve to build what we selfishly refused to incorporate into our building plan. Space for infrastructure should come from the land of those profiting from and creating the need for it in the first place; not from the land that benefits us all by being undeveloped.[/quote]

They are required to do that. How is that relevant to the Ag Reserve?[/quote]
