County Council Approves Legislation to Forward Fund Crofton High School, George Cromwell Elementary

Legislation Speed Ups Time Table for both Capital Projects

Annapolis, MD (March 7, 2016) – The Anne Arundel County Council tonight approved County Executive Steve Schuh’s legislation to forward fund the new Crofton High School and George Cromwell Elementary Revitalization capital projects

“Tonight is a great victory for the Crofton and George Cromwell communities,” said Schuh. “With this investment, both of these projects are one step closer to reality.”

The legislation increases the funding in the FY 2016 budget for the new Crofton High School capital project by $500,000, and George Cromwell Elementary School by $250,000. The increased investment will allow the current contractors to continue with their survey and planning work, speeding up the time tables for both projects.

The County Council voted 6-1 in favor of both pieces of legislation.
