County urged to speed Elm Street School renovation plan
County commissioners worry over rising costs to convert Elm Street School into Frederick County's Alternative School Program site. They paused funding to finish renovations while seeking a quicker study, citing high ceilings, obsolete features, and the site’s valuable land near Frederick Memorial Hospital. The project would also house Head Start and Adult Education offices, with future capital plans to fund modern facilities.
