Projections indicate that enrollment will exceed capacity through the six-year planning period. An FY 2019 appropriation was approved to begin the architectural design and planning for this addition project, which a scheduled completion date of September 2022. However, based on the new KFI assessment data, this facility also requires replacement of many of the building systems. Therefore, the Woodlin Elementary School was expanded from an addition project to a Major Capital Project. As a result of the expanded scope, the construction of this project will require two years, and therefore, the completion date is now September 2023. An FY 2021 appropriation was requested for the planning and design of this Major Capital Project. Due to fiscal constraints, the County Council, in the adopted FY2021-2026 CIP, approved the completion date one year beyond the Board of Education's request, but approved the appropriation for planning. An FY 2022 appropriation and amendment to the FY2021-2026 CIP was approved to accelerate the completion date for this project to align with the request in the FY2021-2026 CIP. An FY 2022 supplemental appropriation and transfer of funds of $3.1 million for this project was approved, in September 2021, to address construction cost increases. An FY 2022 supplemental appropriation of $5.940 million was approved, in December 2021, to maximize state aid. An FY 2023 appropriation was approved to complete this project. The scheduled completion date is August 2023.

MCPS asserts that this project conforms to the requirement of relevant local plans, as required by the Maryland Economic Growth, Resource Protection and Planning Act.
