This project funds a comprehensive and ongoing plan to replace key facility and site components based on an inventory of their age and conditions. A comprehensive inventory of all such components has been assembled so that replacements can be anticipated and accomplished in a planned and orderly manner. Facility components included in this project are code corrections, physical education facility/field improvements, school facility exterior resurfacing, partitions, doors, lighting, media center security gates, bleachers, communication systems, and flooring. An FY 2013 appropriation was approved to fund capital projects that will address MCPS infrastructure. The County Council, in the adopted FY 2013-2018 CIP significantly reduced the expenditures requested by the Board of Education for this project for FY 2014 and beyond. An FY 2014 appropriation and amendment to the FY 2013-2018 CIP was requested to provide an additional $2.49 million above the adopted CIP to reinstate funds that were removed by the County Council during reconciliation in May 2012. However, the County Council, in the adopted FY 2013-2018 Amended CIP did not approve the $2.49 million amendment as requested by the Board. An FY 2013 supplemental appropriation of $3.1 million was approved through the state's ASP program and an FY 2013 supplemental appropriation of $2.0 million was approved through the state's QZAB program. An FY 2015 appropriation was approved to reinstate funds that were removed by the County Council during the last full CIP approval process in order to address our aging infrastructure through the PLAR program. An FY 2015 supplemental appropriation of $603,000 was approved through the state's ASP program and $1.009 million was approved through the state's QZAB program. An FY 2016 appropriation and amendment was approved to continue this level of effort project and also provide an additional $2.5 million in FY 2016 to address immediate facility issues at schools that are waiting for a major capital project. An FY 2016 supplemental appropriation in the amount of $603,000 was approved as part of the state's ASP program and an FY 2016 supplemental appropriation in the amount of $901,000 was approved as part of the state's QZAB program. An FY 2017 appropriation was approved to address facility components in school facilities that have reached the end of their life-cycle. An FY 2017 supplemental appropriation of $578,000 was approved through the state's QZAB program. An FY 2018 appropriation was approved to continue this project. For a list of projects completed during the summer of 2016, see Appendix R of the FY 2018 Educational Facilities Master Plan.
