This is -especially true with <br /> the modifications to the MOU and Ordinance proposed that <br /> are designed to minimize certificate "hoarding." <br /> 2 . Allocating school capacity among <br /> iurisdictions . Allocating school capacity within a school <br /> district by the use of an adequate public schools facility <br /> program draws the adequate public school facilities program <br /> into attendance zone issues. These issues are wholly <br /> independent of school level capacity. The concern of school <br /> capacity is whether there is school capacity in the school <br /> district and taking steps to insure that there is. Whether <br /> school capacity is absorbed by one town' s development or <br /> another town' s development, although important, is not <br /> pertinent to facilities capacity in the school district. <br /> Similarly other attendance zone issues which may or may not <br /> cross town boundaries, neighborhood schools and minimizing <br /> busing are examples, are not part- of the adequate public <br /> schoole facilities program. The program must be designed to <br /> deal only with capacity of school buildings on school level <br /> and school district bases. Allocating school capacity among <br /> or between towns and the rural part of the county therefore <br /> must be accomplished with some other "tool." <br /> The charts that follow are designed to aid in <br /> your review of the draft Memorandum of Understanding and <br /> Ordinance. <br /> GEG/lsg <br /> Enclosure <br /> lsg:memos\adecpubfacwkgroup#2.mem <br />
