West Hyottsville
Again Rejected

Protests from residents of two
areas and from the Maryland-Na-
tionaI Capital Park and Planning
Commission resulted in denial yes
terday by the Prince Georges County
commissioners Of two. applications
for property rezoning. g.
One petition was rejected. for the
second time In less than nine
months. ut was that of Daisy l..
Lanfardt, whose petition for Resi-
Dental G zoning for 10-acre tract,
near West Hyattsville. for apartment
use was rejected by the same board
last July is.
The second rejected petition was
that Of William, r. Ford, who re-
quested commercial coming for prop
erty located between the northwest
corner Of the proposed New Hamp-
shire View apartment development
and East-West highway, near Ia
koma Park. The land currently is
zoned for apartment use. ...-.
The commissioners, in other ac-
tions, during their monthly coming
hearings In the County Service
Building, Hyattsyille, approved three
applications for commercial zoning,
one for an industrial classification
and two for two-family dwelling use.
Three other applications, two for
commercial use and third for joint
commercial industrial zoning, were
continued until the April 81 hear
ings. I ~
ClaH Permit Disapproyed.
In addition, the commissioners
granted special. permission to three
applicants to operate garage or gaso-
line filing stations, two to operate
used car sales lots and one each to
operate q. kindergarten and private
club. A, second request for club
permit was disapproved when resi-
dents of Bladensburg voiced oppo-
sition to granting of such a license.
The Lanhardt application was
denied after about 80 residents of
the Queens Chapel Manor and
Clearwood subdivisions of West Hy-
attsville appeared before the COM
missioners. The tract, located on
unimproved farm land midway be-
tween the corporate limits of Hy-
attsville, Mount Rainier and Brent

nearly 400 feet In depth to the
Northwest Branch. The applicant

ing about $4,000, 600 had been
planned for the area.

tor for the Prince Georges County
regional of1lce Of the planning COM
mission, reported his group objected
to any additional commercial zoning
in the area of the Ford tract, which
is located near the intersection of
