HB 488: Clearinghouse of Prototypes of School Buiding Designs

H.B. 488, P.N. 527 (MACKERETH) This would amend the Public School Code, Act 14 of 1949, P.L. 30.
The Education Department would create a clearinghouse of prototypes of school building designs along with evaluations of each design according to health, safety, accessibility, environmental protection, and energy efficiency standards. These designs would be used by school districts when considering construction designs for their schools. Ownership of each design should be retained by the original professional who designed it.

Has anyone thought what this will do to architects who specialize in school building design? If schools become cookie cutter designs, any originality and responses to new needs will be lost.
