Budget Role
OF Reese
Is Debated

The Montgomery County
Council still wants the adj
vice of its County Manager
on the School Board budget.
But according to proposals
made Tuesday, that advice
would be strictly advisory while
the Council legally voted only
the budget submitted by the
School Board.
At the same time the Council
advanced a proposal to amend
the County Charter by reducing
from SO to 4-3 the number of
Council votes necessary to in
crease any School Board budget
proposal.
The latter would have to be
submitted to a referendum vote
in the November, 1860, cleo
ton. But the issue was tabled
Tuesday when it became at
tached to a sweeping, across
the-board proposal to let the
Council pass by a simple major

Rock Creek Valley
Open Areas Urged
Low Density
Is Asked for
10000 Acres

County planners came up
this week with a surprise
Glow density plan for Upper
Rock Creek Valley that
would, if it is followed, hold
down immediate, rapid de-
velopment there.
Spirits of developers who
have asked for major rezoning
in the area of Redland to create
a new city of 10000 persons,
were dampened by the plan.
Council action on their elabor-
ate proposals had been put off
pending completion of the plan.
Except for small CONNER
cial area in Redland, the plan
leaves most of the land in that
rural community zoned for half
acre lots. Developers had hoped
for large areas of 9000-foot lots
to permit denser development.
A major surprise in the plan
was the recommendation--de-
spite construction of a new
sewer line through the area
that more than 100 acres be
kept in the two-acre coming
category above two flood con-
troll dams being planned for
Rock Creek northeast of Rock
vile.
A bonanza in the form OF
recommended industrial park
zoning for the southeast corner
of Rt. 355 and Shady Grove I'd.
is contained in the plan. Much
of the $50 acres involved is
owned by builder Eugene Casey.
The land is bisected by the
BIO RR.
Also urged for industrial zon-
ing by the plan are 81 addition
al acres on the Northern bound
airy Of Rockville.
The staff of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission emphasized
strongly its belief that Rock
vile, Gaithersburg-Wash
Grove and, to a lesser extent,
Olney; could handle all of the
areas commercial needs for the
forseeable future.
Logic of the planners was
cOuched this way: "Uninter-
rupted waves Of residential de-
velopment, progressing out
ward In bands Of concentric
circles Is not conducive to
planned and orderly growth"
Urgency for the plan was
generated by the steady north
ward progress Of the Rock
Creek Interceptor Sewer, prob
ing toward Gaithersburg and
the area West of Olney.
While population in the 1900
acre watershed today is 1880,
according to the planners, it
probably will increase to be-
tween 10000 and 10000 during
the 20.year period 10000. The
predictions were based in part
on calculations in the recently
completed Mass Transportation
Study.

to an unwritten rule that they
VIII not question appropria-
lions each chamber makes for

the Senate decides 1t needs is
not questioned by the House,
and vice versa.
A tumble of Vouchers
House financial records open
to the public consist of q tumble
of vouchers, certificates, re-
ceipts and notations. They are
assembled in huge volumes in
chronological order. There is
no summary or index, and the
books are stored IN cramped
closets that vastly add to the
difficulty Of examination.
But the basic trouble is that
this material tells only part of
the story. The fun information
on a particular item can be
developed in many instances
only II the legislator involved is
willing to provide additional
information.
Master card files--not open
to public inspection-show how
much of each House members

it was used for.

Committee.
Suggests Veto Dare
he asked II the absence OF q

these chairmen represent no

economic philosophy from their
Republican counterparts?"
Senator Morse said the Demo-

Gould it be that the Demo
