As part of the FY2025-2030 CIP, planning funds and only placeholder construction funds were included in this project. An FY 2025 appropriation was approved to begin the planning and design of this project. However, due to fiscal constraints, as part of the County Council's approved FY 2025-2030 CIP, the placeholder construction expenditures were shifted to the outyears of the CIP. In FY 2026, the Council approved the Board's request to reallocate $3 million of placeholder construction dollars from FY 2030 for other projects. Based on the new CIP Prioritization Framework, Cold Spring ES ranked high enough to be considered for a Major Capital Project. Due to fiscal constraints, in the adopted FY2027-2032 CIP, the County Council delayed the start of the project to FY 2031 with an anticipated completion date of August 2034.
