Frederick Community College Facilities Master Plan Chapter 2 Environmental Scan 2-47 May, 2023 sets a course to grow where it makes sense while protecting valuable resources such as waterways, farmland and forests. It aims to create sustainable growth by guiding state agencies to target their resources to help achieve smart growth at the local level and for Maryland’s counties and municipalities to identify their growth and preservation areas to meet land use, planning and development goals. The foundation of the community college capital improvements program is the Facilities Master Plan (FMP). The FMP for each institution establishes the framework for the orderly development of all capital projects. The Five-Year Capital Improvements Program (CIP) and Annual Capital Budget Request for each institution detail the projects included in the Facilities Master Plan. The Grant supporting General public junior or community college and regional community college construction program is administered by the Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC-the lead agency), the Maryland Department of Budget and Management (DBM) and the Maryland Department of General Services (DGS). Funds for this purpose are appropriated in accordance with provisions of the Annotated Code of Maryland, Education Article, Division III, Title 11 and Title 16, and the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR) approved by the Board of Public Works (BPW).
