[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But this is precisely the problem. Granted, if there is flooding issues or mold or things are collapsing, then OK. But to not consider capacity is ridiculous. And it's not like the overcrowded schools are in shiny new buildings. Some merely had additions put on them that did little to ease the overcrowding. But because it was done "recently" that means they go to the back of the line? [b]Ultimately, the decision should be based on how is the environment affecting the quality of learning.[/b] IMHO, overcrowding affects learning more negatively than a building that's a little long in the tooth, so to speak. [/quote] It should also be based on how much money are they going to have to spend later if they don't fix things up and maintain them now. Deferred maintenance gets really expensive -- just look at Metro -- and the bill always comes due, sooner or later. It's not an effective way to spend a capital improvement budget.[/quote]
