POOlesville Is Stirred
By Polluted Well Issue
By ELY Bradley
Sentinel Reporter

Inc LlIly lpOp. ooU) up
county town of Poolesville to-
day is the scene of a quiet
but determined tug of war
between the old and the new.
Its citizens face choice be-
tween retaining a water system
believed IS per cent polluted, or
pursuing a safe water supply
which would mean growth and
progress after 100 years of rel
alive dormancy.
Poolesville's pollution prob
has been known not only to the
county but to town residents for
more than six months, following
disclosure by the State Health
Department last fall of water
sanpling survey.
But because most of its citi-
Zens are not up in arms and
those who are find themselves
strapped for an immediate solu-
ton - nothing concrete has
been done.
Residents, including Mayor
Billy Bliss, are piping water to
neighbors whose wells have run
dry.
Water polluted with the same
chemicals, detergents, nitrates,
excrement and residue of septic
tanks which have been noted in
two official water samplings
continues to pour from some
taps.
Babies daily are drinking and
bathing in water containing
nitrogen compounds which can
hit their vital hemoglohin pre-
venting it from carrying suf-
ficient oxygen through their
blood to keep them from being
"blue babies"
And the whole free.wheeling
concept of trying to get water
out of the same ground
they've been putting waste
into for more than 100 years
hasn't lost an iOta Of its APP
peal to the gambling instinct
of some Oldtimers.
In Potomac, where most resi-
dents could afford to bring in
public water and sewers, they
don't want them. In Pooles-
vile, where residents say they
can't afford a safe water sys-
tenn, their mayor and council are
determined to get one.
The question is how, and it's
not an easy one to answer.
Mayor Bliss TALES the towns
total income last year at S5713.-
81, one-fifth of which was raised
through local taxes.
Takes paid by the town
didn't quite pay our street light
ing BILL" he says.
Best estimates on the cost of
a good water system for the
town range between 100000
and $225,000. With the towns
present assessable base and slow
rate of growth, Bliss said, Meth
er local tax financing nor bond
issue can be considered the way
out now.
That their existing pattern of
wells and septic tanks is unsav-
DRY, literally and figuratively, at
times, plenty of Poolesville peo-
pie and outsiders agree.
Its always been a hellish
ground base" says county sani-
tation director r. w. Koch, re-
ferring to the inability of the
soil and earth CONFORMATION
around Poolesville to absorb
sewage effectively.
Both Koch and Mayor Bliss
recognize that the oldtimers
whose forbears had no trouble
with their septic tanks reach a
mental block in accepting the

Plan Urged

Future Rockville - under
the coming urban renewal
program - was previewed
this week in a series of rec
concentrations made to the
mayor and council by the
committee of the Urban Re-
newal Advisory Council.
Released by Steering Com.
mittee chairman, Alexander J.
Greene, recommendations cover
general goals, residential uses,
parking and the future char
acter of the mid-city project.
In the matter of general
goals, the committee recon-
mended that the urban renewal
project become a mixed area
with development closely con-
trolled emphasizing retail,
some office buildings and other
buildings with offices above the
first floor; also, buildings for
apartment use.
The council said the urban
renewal plan should make
provision for residential uses
in the form of apartments
with provisions for suitable
parking; and that it is recuEge'
nized there are specific
dwelling needs for certain
types of people who want to
live close to the downtown
area, in other than single
family, detached houses"
Parking for the Urban Re-
newal area, The council pointed
out, should be provided on a
collective basis, possibly using
multi-story structures to con-
serve land, and provision should
be made for short term GUS
toner parking and all day park
ing for employees.
So far as the character of the
area is concerned, the advisory
group said the mid-city area to
be rehabilitated should be one
thai will encourage a number
of different uses, including but
not limited to the following:
residential in form of apart
ments, offices, retail sales, in
GLIDING a department store and
speciality shops.
Service uses are envisioned as
theatre and restaurants while
public and cultural uses" are
described as city, county, state,
and federal offices, and library"
In its recommendation, the
advisory council said also,
warehouses and other like
industrial uses should not be
included in the Urban Renew.
al Plan"
At the same time, the council
said, there is need for policy
on signs and architectural con.
trolls which will provide for a
proper mix Of different types of
architecture"
Consideration should be Civ
en-, the Council added, to land
scaping and the possibility of a
pedestrian mall.
In presenting the recommen.
dations, Chairman Green told
the Mayor and Council, "the
once in a lifetime opportunity
offered by urban renewal to re-
cast the center of Rockville
makes ii mandatory that our OBJ.
jectives be considered from long
range as well as short run
standpoint
The fact that the center Of
Rockville also serves as the
center Of Montgomery Coun-
tvs governmental activity,
establishes major basis for
the sound future growth OF
the mid-city area" he said.
"The first goal" Greene
added, must be to provide a
setting which will be compati-
bic with the city's role as coun.
ty seat"
