SiIUer Spring
Bypass Plan
Hearing Set

The Montgomery County Coun.
Gil holds a public hearing at q
p. m. September IL on the pro.
posed improvement of Spring
Street and Alton Parkway in Sill
yer Spring.
The ST., 40 project would pro-
vide a divided-lane bypass for
cars seeking to avoid the Geor-
gia Avenue-C olesville Road inter
section, according to Joseph Kor-
della, Public Works Department
Chief Engineer.
The public hearing is necessary
because property owners on the
streets will be assessed front foot
benefit charges.
Mr.. Kordella says figured by
the normal method, a charge of
$44 per front foot would be levied
on property owners along the
proposed new street and $12 per
front foot on property owners
along the proposed reconstructed
portion.
mo doubt those costs will be
questioned" says the engineer.
He says he is asking the Assess
ment Division to report the actual
benefit of the new streets to Dor
dering property owners.
The bypass would enter Geor-
gia Avenue at the new Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission office building.
Part of Spring Street has already
been reconstructed.

Members of the pool meet to-

a bylaws change that officials
say will raise the $4,000 neces-
sary to complete the pool and

The proposed change would

oldest child in each family, in
addition to the present $40 per
adult dues. To pass the measure

Dues Hike Possible
If the bylaw change doesn't

may hike the $40 dues to SIS.

Editor:
I attended the July 30 session
of the Appeals Tax Court for
Montgomery County at Rockville.
Protests of recent property tax
assessments were being heard.
Beyond doubt, everyone was
given a fair hearing and for this
the court is to be commended.
But, the inefficiencies of the
methods used suggest that a real
change in administrative proce-
dure is in order if we are to get
our dollars worth from the work
of said court.
Let me explain. When re-
ceived nv nronertv assessment.
