Three members of the County Board OF
Appeals should be ashamed of themselves.
They handed down an opinion concerning a
special exception to permit the addition OF
two stories on the Telephone Building in
Silver Spring and to construct on top micro,
wave tower at the rear of the building.
Without going into the merits concerning
the decision to grant this special exception
allowing the telephone company to install
high tower, we believe the language used in
the decision is unfortunate, to say the least.
In fact, it borders on the capricious.
The three members are Mrs. Mary Hep
burn, Chairman, Mrs Rita C. Davidson, Vice
Chairman and Philip M. Fairbanks Messrs.
Everett r. Jones and E. L. Bright did not
participate. And although just one wrote the
decision, all three concurred If two of the
three members didn't like the language used
they should have said so or held out until it
was changed.
There is no excuse for the Board of APP
peals to say: "The street Georgia avenue
where the Telephone Building is located) is
not too impressive anyway at the present
time. AS for the tower, people ordinarily do
not walk around looking at the sky or at the
tops of buildings. at least, not If they hope to
stay alive in this day of pedestrian hazards
on busy streets. Likewise, people in active
offices do not spend their time looking out
windows unless they wish to get fired"
For years an effort has been made to
have the dividing islands in the Silver Spring
business area planted and kept beautiful. This
has not been successful even though one
organization received prize for the plans.
However, there are sections of the Silver
Spring business district that are outstanding
ly pleasing to the eye and unusual for subur
ban business development.
Take the portion of Georgia avenue that
