anchor Justification
In December the County Council initiated an Infrastructure Maintenance Task Force which gathered information on the maintenance needs of County agencies. The first objective was to identify the direst needs of agencies for additional funding; while the long-term goal was to initiate an ongoing, regular process to update and improve the inventory and analysis of infrastructure maintenance needs. As the College had already completed a facilities assessment, adequate information was available for buildings and a process was already underway to address these needs. However, less attention had been given to site issues. An outcome of this task force was to create projects to address these site needs. Related studies include the Montgomery College Strategic Plan Collegewide Facilities Condition Assessment the Collegewide Master Plan (Pending and the County Council Report of the Infrastructure Maintenance Task Force
