AEC Project Seen Hurting Montgomery Schools
The Montgomery County Board of Education discussed the Atomic Energy Commission plan for a $10 million Germantown headquarters. Supervisor James Sheldon warned it could raise construction wages and fuel contractor competition, suggesting contractor bonuses on school jobs to justify damages for delays. Officials weigh the idea as the area could attract families and quick growth, with promises to study impacts on schools and roadways. The board also settled a design fee for Northwest Bethesda Junior-Senior High School and approved salary increases for Superintendent Norris and others.
