PURPOSE OF PRESENTATION: To accept public comment on the 2016 Draft Superintendent’s Recommended Educational Facilities Master Plan (EFMP).
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY: Each year, the Board of Education of Frederick County (BOE) reviews and updates the ten-year EFMP for the Frederick County Public Schools. This plan serves a number of purposes, some of which include the following:
PROCESS STATEMENT: The Draft Superintendent’s Recommended EFMP is the first draft of the plan and was presented to the BOE at their August 24, 2016 meeting for information and discussion. The BOE will hear public comment at tonight’s public hearing. Following review of public comments, the BOE will make such changes as it deems appropriate. The BOE is scheduled to approve the plan as well as a prioritized list of fiscal year 2018 major and systemic capital project funding requests at the September 21, 2016 BOE meeting. The approved EFMP is then the basis for capital funding requests submitted to the state and county in early October.
