Why not build on to the existing school?  We built a new School in Bordedown and my taxes have gone up 15% this year!   Why can't they build additions, like you  would to a home?

Board shows plans for $35M school By:

    " CHESTERFIELD-The school board unveiled plans May 30 for a $35 million school that would be located on Steeplechase Way, a street that would be in a new development in Old York Village.
   The tract being eyed for the school is known as the Wilkinson Farm.
   The school would be constructed if a third referendum passes on Dec. 11. The school would open its doors in September 2010.
   This will be the school board's third attempt to gain voter approval to build a new elementary school. In December 2003 voters defeated a $17.5 million referendum under which taxpayers would have been responsible for $14 million of the cost; in December 2005 voters defeated a $19.5 million referendum under which taxpayers would have been responsible for $16 million.
   The May 30 meeting, attended by about 30 residents largely in support of the proposal, featured two presentations. One analyzed how many elementary school-age children are expected attend the school system once Old York Village is completed. The other displayed plans for the proposed 114,000-square-foot school.
   The demographer's presentation showed that although Chesterfield Elementary School now has an enrollment of 367 students, once the remaining 901 Old York Village houses are complete, that enrollment number is expected to jump to 931."

Is anyone else feeling the "crunch?"
