[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The poster above doesn’t seem to realize that [b]the length of the renovation cycle is linked to how much currently gets spent on individual projects.[/b]

Obviously if you build a massive addition to West Potomac that isn’t needed outside the normal removal cycle or budget over $130M to renovate a single high school you are going to extend the renovation cycle and find yourself in a position where you can’t make targeted investments where they may be most needed.

FCPS is clumsy and inefficient.[/quote]

No, it's based on the age of the building.  There are school districts that don't renovate old buildings.  Glad we don't do that here...[/quote]

You are missing the point of the poster. The renovation cycle could be shorter if extra money wasn't spent on certain projects. The county can only take so much money out in the form of bonds. If $130M is spent on one large project, that will slow the execution of three $43M projects. [/quote]
