[b]And why is the population going up?  Construction, houses, condos, townhouses, buildings, development that Montgomery County approved.  How is that the state's issue.[/b] A county's job is to have enough schools for these developments or get the funds in advance to do so.  They don't. Has the county raised builder tax fees? No. Why?  Good question to ask the county, right?  Again, not a state issue

Frederick raised them last year and they aren't building near as much as MCPS.

And if the population continues to go up because of being a welcoming sanctuary county, that again can't go to the state for help.  That is a county decision to happily say we will protect illegal immigrants.  This is a county decision to send extra funding to the county health department to aid illegal families with whatever they need. Why not ask why those funds aren't going to the schools?   http://www.mymcmedia.org/county-health-department-to-assist-families-facing-deportation/

If the new residents of Montgomery County are solely Montgomery County's responsibility, then surely you and Governor Hogan wouldn't object to the new residents' taxes going solely to Montgomery County, would you?
