School Facilities Task Force Report— Issues Requiring Further Discussion/Resolution In April 2001, the School Facilities Task Force issued its report to the Board of Commissioners. The task force had been charged to develop recommendations regarding school construction standards, school capacity, and other related matters that might have a bearing on projects to be included in the November 2001 bond referendum. A number of questions were left for further discussion —for example, a final determination of which methodology to use for projecting future student populations for capital planning purposes. The boards may wish to discuss specific matters that they would like addressed by a reconstituted task force on school construction standards.
