[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL, MCPS will fool everyone by adding hypothetical placeholder to not have moratorium. City of Rockville will go along with that.  Kids will suffer. No one cares about them.

No, that's not how the process works.

[i]What is a placeholder “solution?”
• [b]Funding approved by the County Council for an as yet undefined project
that is under assessment by MCPS.[/b]
• Counts as funded capacity, thus preventing potential moratorium.
• Funding is typically not requested by MCPS.
• Funding is typically programmed in the out years of the CIP.
• While the placeholder implies that MCPS will pursue an addition at the
school, in reality, the scope of the real project is unknown because MCPS
has not fully determined the appropriate solution to the enrollment issue.
• The ultimate solution could be larger and more expensive than the
placeholder, or might not even involve a capital project.[/i]

I've bolded the relevant part.

However, as the PP said, Rockville is an incorporated municipality with its own planning authority, so they make their own decisions about thresholds and waivers for building moratoriums.

As I understand it, the MCPS CIP has funding for the first step (planning) for the high school at Crown, beginning in July 2019.
