With such statements coming from our city leaders, it's safe to say that Rockville is changing rapidly. Any family valuing education should think hard before buying in Rockville.

Kings farm has boundary dividing in middle. One part goes to RM and other goes to Gaithersburg. I happen to buy in RM part even though I had to stretch it.. Everyone buying in RM part pays a premium. Not in too distant future this premium is going to disappear by RM part decreasing in value and matching Gaithersburg part.  Entire RM cluster should lose 10-15% of property value with the direction we are headed. [/quote]

[quote]The Rockville City Council member who had been met with a fierce backlash for a proposal to raise school capacity at Richard Montgomery High School said he’s willing to pursue a different option to avoid a freeze on residential building.

On Tuesday, Pierzchala stepped away from the idea of increasing the high school’s capacity to the exemption option, based on feedback from several community groups[/quote]

Pierzchala wants an exemption. It's not really a "compromise." Exemptions have been issued for certain developments, such as those geared to ages 55+. This "compromise" that Bethesda Beat has mentioned is basically saying, "We want to find a way to build more and put more kids at RM and WJ. We won't call it a waiver, so we'll rewrite the APFO and call it an exemption."

Of course it's a compromise. Pierzchala wants to raise the moratorium limit for everything to 150%, you want it to stay unchanged or decrease, the compromise is to exempt this specific proposal from the moratorium limit.[/quote]
