If this draft moves forward I would be happy to testify about the linkagesbetween our suggestions and the school systemThoughts Response

From Vicky CutroneoTo Board amp Student MemberCc Karalee Turner-Little Michael Martirano Mark BlomSubject Urgent DRRA letter to the County ExecutiveDate Monday April 22 2019 12447 PM

ColleaguesI am concerned that the DRRA letter will be sent to the County Executive without opendiscussion at a public meeting This is an extremely complex issue with significant long termramifications and I do not believe that back and forth emails at the last minute after a holidayweekend is the most appropriate nor transparent way to come to consensus Moreover I amuncomfortable with votes by phone with no documentation Given that the public hearing isthis evening with opportunity for Council to ask questions I still do not understand thepurpose of sending a letter or why there was a deadline there is plenty of time before theCounty Council votes We took a unanimous position last week and Im afraid the lettersverbiage will only detract from and dilute our message of advocacy on behalf of both currentand future HCPSS students Given 3 Board members did not support sending the letterclearly more discussion was warrantedRegards

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

I agree with Becky and Kenrsquos sentiment (I removed her from this email) We should notwait until the elementary is designed and built

We should be able to get involved earlier with the sidewalks in the design stage

Can any staff share some experience on this kind of work in the school construction

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

If this draft moves forward I would be happy to testify about the linkagesbetween our suggestions and the school systemThoughts Response

ColleaguesI am concerned that the DRRA letter will be sent to the County Executive without opendiscussion at a public meeting This is an extremely complex issue with significant long termramifications and I do not believe that back and forth emails at the last minute after a holidayweekend is the most appropriate nor transparent way to come to consensus Moreover I amuncomfortable with votes by phone with no documentation Given that the public hearing isthis evening with opportunity for Council to ask questions I still do not understand thepurpose of sending a letter or why there was a deadline there is plenty of time before theCounty Council votes We took a unanimous position last week and Im afraid the lettersverbiage will only detract from and dilute our message of advocacy on behalf of both currentand future HCPSS students Given 3 Board members did not support sending the letterclearly more discussion was warrantedRegards

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

ColleaguesI am concerned that the DRRA letter will be sent to the County Executive without opendiscussion at a public meeting This is an extremely complex issue with significant long termramifications and I do not believe that back and forth emails at the last minute after a holidayweekend is the most appropriate nor transparent way to come to consensus Moreover I amuncomfortable with votes by phone with no documentation Given that the public hearing isthis evening with opportunity for Council to ask questions I still do not understand thepurpose of sending a letter or why there was a deadline there is plenty of time before theCounty Council votes We took a unanimous position last week and Im afraid the lettersverbiage will only detract from and dilute our message of advocacy on behalf of both currentand future HCPSS students Given 3 Board members did not support sending the letterclearly more discussion was warrantedRegards

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

I attended this morningrsquos listening session with Dr Ball Several members brought upthe task force and the need for acquiring the UPS site We should probably have thesediscussions with the County Council in open session so that they can get acquaintedwith the situation as it has been developing over the past couple of years I propose thatwe add an agenda item to the 28th and potentially remove the item regarding theopportunity gap

Becki Vivrette brought up the DRRA in regard to the Mission Road site There is apotential for a divided vote by the Council on approving the acquisition Not sure howit will go but we need to plan for road bumps

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

All Since we have not seen the revised draft letter to theCounty Executive Irsquom concerned that it still includeslanguage that we did not expect all of our amendments tobe incorporated into the final DRRA The Board was very clear in its position regarding theDRRA and passed motions to approve our amendmentsin an 8-0 vote Any letter to the County Executive mustbe consistent with the motions and the intent of theBoard In addition the testimony to the County Council on theDRRA also must reflect our position that we are opposedto granting the property owner special exemptions tolaws related to zoningdevelopment and the operation of

the quarry Neither document should state any expectation that ouramendments will not be given the same consideration asany other amendments proposed by other organizationsor individuals I request that the final draft of the letter to the CountyExecutive be shared with the entire Board and inputprovided prior to any letter being sent as well as a finaldraft of the testimony be share with the entire Board andinput provided prior to the finalization of the testimony SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell From Mavis Ellis ltMavis_Ellishcpssorggt Sent Friday April 19 2019 815 AMTo Christina Delmont-Small ltChristina_Delmont-Smallhcpssorggt Karalee Turner-LittleltKaralee_TurnerLittlehcpssorggt BoE EmailltboehcpssorggtCc Michael Martirano ltMichael_MartiranohcpssorggtJahantab Siddiqui ltJahantab_Siddiquihcpssorggt AnissaBrown Dennis ltAnissa_BrownDennishcpssorggt MarkBlom ltMark_BlomhcpssorggtSubject Re Draft DRRA Testimony for Board Approval Good Morning All

From Christina Delmont-SmallSent Thursday April 18 2019 838 PMTo Karalee Turner-Little BoE EmailCc Michael Martirano Jahantab Siddiqui Anissa BrownDennis Mark BlomSubject RE Draft DRRA Testimony for Board Approval All Please verify with Mr Blom I believe that the DRRA is notthe agreement to purchase the land for HS 13 ndash it is aseparate document that is referenced in the Purchase andSale Agreement to purchase the land on which to buildschools (HS 13 and another future school) and the land forthe water tower The Purchase and Sale agreement (whichmentions the DRRA) sets the terms of the sale and purchaseof the Mission Road property It is premature to acknowledge that our motions will not beincorporated in the DRRA and weakens the position we havetaken on the amendments At this stage in the process the County Council is

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

ColleaguesI am concerned that the DRRA letter will be sent to the County Executive without opendiscussion at a public meeting This is an extremely complex issue with significant long termramifications and I do not believe that back and forth emails at the last minute after a holidayweekend is the most appropriate nor transparent way to come to consensus Moreover I amuncomfortable with votes by phone with no documentation Given that the public hearing isthis evening with opportunity for Council to ask questions I still do not understand thepurpose of sending a letter or why there was a deadline there is plenty of time before theCounty Council votes We took a unanimous position last week and Im afraid the lettersverbiage will only detract from and dilute our message of advocacy on behalf of both currentand future HCPSS students Given 3 Board members did not support sending the letterclearly more discussion was warrantedRegards

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

I attended this morningrsquos listening session with Dr Ball Several members brought upthe task force and the need for acquiring the UPS site We should probably have thesediscussions with the County Council in open session so that they can get acquaintedwith the situation as it has been developing over the past couple of years I propose thatwe add an agenda item to the 28th and potentially remove the item regarding theopportunity gap

Becki Vivrette brought up the DRRA in regard to the Mission Road site There is apotential for a divided vote by the Council on approving the acquisition Not sure howit will go but we need to plan for road bumps

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

All Since we have not seen the revised draft letter to theCounty Executive Irsquom concerned that it still includeslanguage that we did not expect all of our amendments tobe incorporated into the final DRRA The Board was very clear in its position regarding theDRRA and passed motions to approve our amendmentsin an 8-0 vote Any letter to the County Executive mustbe consistent with the motions and the intent of theBoard In addition the testimony to the County Council on theDRRA also must reflect our position that we are opposedto granting the property owner special exemptions tolaws related to zoningdevelopment and the operation of

the quarry Neither document should state any expectation that ouramendments will not be given the same consideration asany other amendments proposed by other organizationsor individuals I request that the final draft of the letter to the CountyExecutive be shared with the entire Board and inputprovided prior to any letter being sent as well as a finaldraft of the testimony be share with the entire Board andinput provided prior to the finalization of the testimony SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell From Mavis Ellis ltMavis_Ellishcpssorggt Sent Friday April 19 2019 815 AMTo Christina Delmont-Small ltChristina_Delmont-Smallhcpssorggt Karalee Turner-LittleltKaralee_TurnerLittlehcpssorggt BoE EmailltboehcpssorggtCc Michael Martirano ltMichael_MartiranohcpssorggtJahantab Siddiqui ltJahantab_Siddiquihcpssorggt AnissaBrown Dennis ltAnissa_BrownDennishcpssorggt MarkBlom ltMark_BlomhcpssorggtSubject Re Draft DRRA Testimony for Board Approval Good Morning All

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

responsible for amending and voting on the DRRA not theCounty Executive (the County Executive may ask a memberof the County Council to offer an amendment to the DRRAhowever the County Council would have to vote for theamendment) I also suggest adding language to the sentence regarding thebalancing of capacity that reflects the critical need tobalance capacity because the residential development in thecounty has outpaced the funding of capital projects and ourability to build schools to accommodate the children ofHoward County Also I would include Mr Washingtonrsquos phone number aswell SincerelyChristina Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

I agree with Becky and Kenrsquos sentiment (I removed her from this email) We should notwait until the elementary is designed and built

We should be able to get involved earlier with the sidewalks in the design stage

Can any staff share some experience on this kind of work in the school construction

Thanks

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

From our discussion Reference the Board of Appeals case after review of pertinent documents believe DRRA in directconflict with BA Case N 95-58E The BOE decision made to place HS 13 at Mission Road was made based on information that wasavailable to the Board at the time it was the understanding that the quarry operations would ceaseafter 25 years of operation (unless the property owner was able to obtain permission from thecounty to continue operations) The exemption of yet another large property in light of new APFO changes that will take effect thissummer could potentially lead to student population growth beyond our current capitalinfrastructure The DRRA exempts the property owner from the renewal of the special exception to operate thequarry from the established legal process and the opportunity for the public to provide input intothe process Using the decision to place HS 13 at Mission road to circumvent the customary legal zoningprocess Christina Delmont-SmallMemberBoard of Education of Howard Countychristina_delmont-smallhcpssorg667-786-3895 cell

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

I agree with Becky and Kenrsquos sentiment (I removed her from this email) We should notwait until the elementary is designed and built

We should be able to get involved earlier with the sidewalks in the design stage

Can any staff share some experience on this kind of work in the school construction

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I respectfully disagree TSES MUST be replaced Also the HaHS addition renovation islong overdue and could draw from the same area as HS 13 For my part I would delay HS13 as I am skeptical about the DRRA passing as it stands currently

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

I agree with Becky and Kenrsquos sentiment (I removed her from this email) We should notwait until the elementary is designed and built

We should be able to get involved earlier with the sidewalks in the design stage

Can any staff share some experience on this kind of work in the school construction

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

I attended this morningrsquos listening session with Dr Ball Several members brought upthe task force and the need for acquiring the UPS site We should probably have thesediscussions with the County Council in open session so that they can get acquaintedwith the situation as it has been developing over the past couple of years I propose thatwe add an agenda item to the 28th and potentially remove the item regarding theopportunity gap

Becki Vivrette brought up the DRRA in regard to the Mission Road site There is apotential for a divided vote by the Council on approving the acquisition Not sure howit will go but we need to plan for road bumps

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

I think our three priorities should stay our three prioritiesHigh School 13 Talbot andHammond How can we go back on some of our neediest schools and not provide capacity inthose areas Yes we may need some systematic work done across the county but changingout commitments midstream makes this Board and the Superintendent look very inconsistentas we prepare for redistricting My feeling is that we can get County support for projects inthe future if we continue to collaborate with them in a positive way

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Sam and Carl Thank you for reaching out and for your questions HS13 Wersquove discussed the possible delay of the HS13site settlement and have some concerns With thealready tight timeline for construction and opening for2023 any delay could impact in several ways At theminimum it would be our preference that the Countyexpedite the transfer of the property to HCPSS by asmuch as time as the closing is delayed by We have tostart construction 42020 and we must own the propertyprior to the State allowing us to build on it Ownershipcould also impact whether we are able to put it out tobid and seek approval of the bids If the closing datekeeps moving and the transfer date keeps moving itcould give the State reason to question our ownership ofthe site and hold approval or willingness to deal on thesite There is also another piece ndash the delay of thecountyrsquos construction of the public road and water towerwould create timing and access issues for contractorsand would impact costs The Board voted to moveforward with this site based on the planned 2023opening and any changes to that timeline would need togo back to the Board Re Turf Valley You are correct that we are responsiblefor Phase II As we requested in the October letter(referenced in the letter Dr Martirano provided to theCounty Exec recently) we have requested that theCounty amend the sales agreement to allow for a PhaseII as well as any remediation that may be required as aresult Once the agreement stipulates the Phase IIassessment and any remediation needed we will moveforward with the Phase II assessment Please let me know if you have any additional questions Jahantab

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

ltAnissa_BrownDennishcpssorggtSubject RE [External] HS 13 DRRA and Turf Valley Dear Ms Coombs Please see the below in regards to the Turf Valley and Mission Road properties Turf Valley Subsequent to the Boardrsquos closed session on the Phase I ESA on theproperty staff at the direction of the Board wrote a letter from Dr Martirano to theCounty Executive stating the following ldquoThe Board maintains its interest in the Turf Valley site acquisition contingent uponeach of the following

1 Receipt of a Phase II environmental assessment based on a scope of analysisapproved by the Board whose results are acceptable to the Board in its solediscretion

2 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the scope and success of any remediation must be approvedby a third-party environmental consultant approved by the Board and

3 If in the Boardrsquos judgment remediation of the site is needed and if the Boardaccepts the site the Board shall not be responsible for any costs associatedwith remediation testing or consultants

Given these important contingencies I recommend that any sales agreement with theproperty owner include provisions ensuring that final acceptance of the property isconditioned upon satisfaction of the above-contingenciesrdquo The County Executive does intend to move forward with this purchase Theprocurement of this site however requires Council approval since funds will bedispersed over two fiscal years It was recommended that HCPSS and DPW haveanother conversation with the owner regarding permission to perform a Phase II ESAThe last HCPSS requested permission the property owner indicated he would not allowHCPSS on the property for a Phase II ESA without a signed sales agreement Mission Road Staff continues to work with the County on purchase of site Theremaining item for closing of sale is the DRRA The DRRA would allow for the continuedoperation of the quarry under the existing conditional use The DRRA needs to beapproved by County Council and the Planning Board The proposal to delay the closingbetween the County and property owner would hinder the property transfer forconstruction to begin Thank you Scott W Washington

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

I attended this morningrsquos listening session with Dr Ball Several members brought upthe task force and the need for acquiring the UPS site We should probably have thesediscussions with the County Council in open session so that they can get acquaintedwith the situation as it has been developing over the past couple of years I propose thatwe add an agenda item to the 28th and potentially remove the item regarding theopportunity gap

Becki Vivrette brought up the DRRA in regard to the Mission Road site There is apotential for a divided vote by the Council on approving the acquisition Not sure howit will go but we need to plan for road bumps

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Good Afternoon

Mr Washington thank you for the clarification

My concern is with the construction of sidewalks on county property not HCPSSproperty At the recent community meeting held by the county about HS13 theimpression of the attendees was that the county was NOT planning to construct anysidewalks in the neighborhoods that are perceived to be walking distance to HS13

I appreciate that we will build sidewalks on HCPSS property however if there are nosidewalks outside of HCPSS property boundaries then it is more difficult for students towalk to school Although sidewalks are not necessary for students to be classified aswalkers (students in many neighborhoods are walkers and there are areas where thereare no sidewalks) if we are building a new school and there is an opportunity for thecounty to provide sidewalks that will increase the safetyability of students to walk toschool then the HCPSS staff and BOE should work together to lobby our countygovernment sooner than later

What is the status of the discussions between HCPSS and the county governmentregarding the walk zone for HS13 and the availability of sidewalks in the area

Thank youChristina

Good Morning All

I think that there may be some confusion in regards to this issue Please note that staffcontinually works with the Countyrsquos transportation department on ldquosafe routes toschoolrdquo and this will continue prior to the start of the elementary school As the countysecures funding for sidewalks bike paths etc they contact HCPSS staff forrecommendations and opinions about the connections Installation of sidewalks andsecuring the funding is the responsibility of Howard County DPW and TransportationThe HCPSS Pupil Transportation Office (PTO) annually recommends connections to ourschools (please note that the Office of School Planning hired an intern to assist in the

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

identification of opportunity gaps for walkers this past summer to help inform PTOrsquosrecommendations to HoCo Transportation)

Please understand we are not waiting to design more connections on our property With HS 13 we will builddesign the necessary sidewalk infrastructure within ourproperty boundaries When ES 43 is built we will review that portion of the site foradditional access ways based on that schoolrsquos layout We will also look in conjunctionwith the County to identify additional connections from our school site to County built(or proposed) sidewalks

I hope that this response helps to clarify this issue

AllI am restricting my response to BOE and HCPSS staff only

I agree with Dr Wu ndash why would sidewalks be delayed until the elementary school isbuilt Are there no students of high school age who live within the walk zone for highschool students

The planningbuilding of sidewalks falls within the jurisdiction of the county council andthe county executive As with our own capital budget projects need to be placed onthe list years earlier than they are needed to ensure that funding will be available

Therefore I suggest the following

A Ask the Office of School Planning and the Office of Transportation to provide tothe BOE the location and number of high school students (based on currentstudents) who live within the walk zone for HS13 for 2023 and beyond

B If there are high school students who fall within the HS13 walk zone expressour concern to the county council and the county executive that there is noplan for infrastructure to enable these students to walk to HS13 and that thiswill increases transportation costs and limit students from having the

opportunity to stay after school for additional academic assistance and clubs

C Ask the superintendent how HCPSS (and the BOE can support) working withthe county council and county executive to ensure that the necessaryinfrastructure (sidewalks) that fall within their purview are funded and built in atimely fashion to maximize the funds we spend on our capital projects(schools)

To Our Leaders of Howard County

Congratulations to our newly elected officials and welcome back to our incumbents I know many of you know our story and yet I will take this opportunity to review the last eleven months and what we are now advocating for moving forward

Our family has lived off Mission Road in Jessup for nearly 23 years Our only daughter has attended ES MS and High School We also proudly host exchange students through AFS and currently our fifth lsquoexchange daughterrsquo is in grade with I have my own company and volunteer on our PTSA and in our community

I must be honest to say I always kept in touch with what was happening at our school level and only really skimmed the headlines of what was happening at our County Level We knew High School 13 was planned to go across from our Heritage Woods neighborhood and we supported the concept even though our own daughter would have graduated by the time it opens The forest for the future school site was cleared

in NovemberDecember 2017 Then Friday January 5th 2018 after a closed-door

meeting the Board of Education announced they have ruled out the Mission Rd site asa potential candidate for the next high school (HS 13)

We spent the weekend pondering what would happen to the cleared 77 acres Mondaymorning dawned and I started to call everyone I could think of I started with thequarry asking them who owned the land and they told me they still did I asked whathappens if the county does not purchase the land for the school and they told me it willstill be developed I did my research it is zoned mixed use anything could go there Ithen called county officials and The Board of Education and asked them Why NotJessup I was told by several people that we didnrsquot think Jessup cared no one spokeup

We quickly realized we had to do something We started a Facebook group we createda website wwwtinyurlcomwhynotjessup and we spoke to as many people aspossible We then spent three very intense months researching advocating defendingand attending as many meetings as possible We understood that the larger populationof students is in the Elkridge area unfortunately the land does not exist there and theland that could be made available would certainly not be ready to build on by 2023 likeit is in Jessup an area that was planned since May 2016 to have a high school On

March 8th 2018 the Board of Education voted to approve the Mission Road site for HS13That was great news now we can go back to our regular lives and get caught back upon life right Well we knew we had to continue to follow the process and ensure allgoes smoothly

In September I started looking into sidewalks for the new school One of the reasonsseveral BOE members voted for this location was due to the neighborhoods thatsurround it and the probability of walkers I dug through websites and budgets I sentmore emails I soon discovered that sidewalks need to be part of the Capital Budgetand that Mission Road will need a lot of work before sidewalks can be built I wasassured the school system is very involved with providing feedback to the county

We attended a community meeting where the civil engineering group Fisher Collinsand Carter (which works for county) presented the plans for the school to ourcommunity The thing that stood out the most was that they were told to NOT PLAN onmany walkers because of the current situation of sidewalks

We also attended another community meeting in November where the quarry ownersChase LLC presented that they are asking the county for the DRRA (DevelopmentRights and Responsibilities Agreement) to protect the quarry by allowing them tocontinue blasting at the same level and frequency as they currently do after the schoolopens This must be voted and approved by our new County Council and CountyExecutor for the land purchase to be competed

Which brings me back around to this email and contacting you all today We now

realize we must ask for your support for the DRRA to complete the purchase As weknow several of our high schools are grossly overcrowded We need to open this highschool in 2023 and need your support in making sure this purchase goes through Wealso need your support in trying to connect the Guilford Area to this new school withsidewalks Giving students access to the school and fields helps with inclusion for ourcommunity and saves the taxpayers money on buses I equate this to paying rent(paying for buses) vs a mortgage (invest in sidewalks)

We are here in Jessup we do care and we will continue to advocate We appreciateyour continued support of our community

Respectfully

Becky amp Ken McKirahan
