[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of the options,

Shift IB out.

[b]Put TB ES outside of RM cluster.[/b]

Redraw boundaries by doing something else to make room for additional condos supported by our council member Mark Pierzchala.

We should forget about kids education and simply do a policy change to build more.

How about putting Beall ES outside of RM cluster?[/quote]

Beall is not on edge of RM cluster. CG is on north edge. CG can be put outside of RM cluster.

TB is though better candidate. TB wants lots of grocery shops and condos there. RM can't afford it so TB is better off in Woodward or Wheaton HS cluster and then TB can build lots of condos.[/quote]

Sure it is - it's on the eastern edge.  Beall has Rockville Town Center, and that's one of the places contributing to the projected increase over 120% of capacity. Rezone Beall to Rockville HS.[/quote]

Agree with this. There are two major areas for additional housing.[b] Beall and TB. MCPS should look at shifting one of them out of RM cluster. I think Wheaton and Rockville high schools are nearby.[/b] It will require considering some other HS as well. Hopefully, MCPS does a county wide boundary soon and adjust RM to bring it in 80-100% range.[/quote]

I am not sure if there is empty seats in Rockville HS. Wheaton HS will have some empty seats, but enough to take one ES.

I think it's a great idea to explore, but some portion of Wheaton and Rockville has to move to make room for Beall/TB ES. After this move, enough condos can be built on these ES zone without making overcrowding worse in RM.

Otherwise taking out IB magnet is the best option available here. Immediately RM will drop down below 100%. [/quote]
