ture.
This was evidenced by the al
most-unpredecented turnouts of
Upper Montgomery County
landowners to protest creation
of the zone at two County Coun-
Gil hearings this week.
On Monday, more than 400
persons mostly upper-county
property owners and their at
torneys-overflowed the County
Building auditorium to cause
continuation of the hearing for
lack of adequate seating.
Larger facilities were
sought to handle the unexpect-
ed thrOng, and the auditorium
of Richard Montgomery High
School in Rockville, with a
seating capacity Of 14OO, had
to be engaged to accommodate
the second hearing last night.
The Juror prompted by the
coming proposal which would,
among other provisions, estab-
fish a minimum lot size of five
acres in the county's undevelop-
ed open spaces, has marked it
as real Sleeper" among con-
troversial issues facing the
County Council.
1t was born quietly enough
last year in the mind of noted
planning consultant Harland
Bartholomew, who suggested to
the County Council that 1t
might consider less half-acre
coming in the county and estab-
lishment of larger minimum lot
sizes.
Five-acre lot coming, 1t was
argued, is necessary planning
tool for open spaces which the
National Capital Planning Com
mission hopes to preserve be-
tween radial corridors of land
development under its year
1000 Plan"
On Bartholomew recommen-
dalton, the County Council ask
ed the Maryland-National Capt.
tai Park and Planning Commits
sion for formal approval of a
text amendment to the county
coming ordinance which would
set up the O-S, or rural open
space zone.
The commission, by a 81 vote
in which Commissioner Donald
E. Gingery dissented, went

phrase, "such person or per-

amended to continue:
q. but reserves the sole
and absolute right 10 deter
mine from among such person
or persons those who will or
will not be served for any
other reason or reasons than
those stated In Section 3a Of
said Ordinance"
Questioned about any possible
"loophole" the amendment
might provide Crivella, Barbee
commented: "If there is one,
I'm sure it's a reasonable one"
This gives my client a
little freedom of choice" said
Barbee.

day on their four choices for
Republican candidates to run

so votes. -Four place winner

2 Big Agencies Tangle
Again In Land Dispute
Watershed
Development
Is At Stake

Inc two big, Seml-inde-
pendent planning and water
and sewer agencies serving
Montgomery County were
in head-on collision again
this week with each taking
opposite sides on a highly
controversial application to
develop a 472-acre Olney
farm into an 824-home SUBJ
division.
The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission wants to
extend sewer lines to the tract
to make the development - To-
Gated outside of the WSSCs
boundary lines possible. The
staff Of the MaryIand-N National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission is strongly opposed to
the would-be developers pre-
hminary subdivision plan that
is keyed to sewer lines.
Olney, a small community
about II miles north of the Dis
trict Line, already has water
lines. But sewer lines are still
about seven miles away.
Planners say the subdivision
plan 'is contrary to all adopted
and proposed master plans for
this area" that is located In the
Patuxent River watershed.
Thousands Of tons Of silt
and sediment would flow into
tributaries Of the Patllxant
River which supplies water TO
most Of Prince Georges and
Montgomery Counties II the
tract were developed, they
contend.
Such plan would also de-
stroy the Satellite city" role
that is envisaged for Olney,
they argue. The tract in ques-
ton is just outside of the satel-
lite city line that has been
drawn. ''The satellite must be
surrounded by country, or it is
not satellite" they say.
Adopted plans for Olney rec
ommend land uses for about
5000 persons by 1880, the plan
ners pointed out in a strongly
worded report opposing the
project. They said the SAM
tary Commission proposal
would provide development OPP
portunity for almost $1,000 per.
sons.
Many school, road, fire pro-
lection and library problems
would be created prematurely
by the proposed project, they
argued.
Backer of the proposed de-
velopment is Albert w. Turner,
developer of Carrollton near
Lanham in Prince Georges
County - a 1000 home develop
ment.
To accommodate Turner and
provide for future Olney de-
velOpment the WSSC has
proposed extension and en-
largement of an aIready.ap-
proved but not yet started
sewer line designed to serve
Cherry Valley Estates and
william burg Village 50
that the Turner tract To-
Gated three-fOurths of a mile
west OF Olney and on the
north side of the OIney-Iay-
louisville I'd. could be served
by sewer lines.
The already approved line

Bill Wheeler
Is Affable,
Controversial

William B. Wheeler, CEN
trail figure in a new land de-
velopment dispute in Mont
gomery County, is no
stranger to controversy.
The key role he plays in
county politics and government
have made him the target OF
conflict of interest" charges in
the past.
Most recent public blast at
Wheeler-member of the Wash
ington Suburban Sanitary Com
mission, leading coming lawyer,
businessman, and member of
the Democratic State Central
Committee was fired in a
committee report of the Mont
gomery County Citizens Plan
ming Association about three
months ago.
The report contended that
Wheeler is confronted with
conflict of interest situations
and its drafters pleaded with
top county officials not to ap.
point men to public bodies
whose personal interests and
those of their clients are at
stake when they made public
decisions.
Wheeler, long a Democratic
power in the county and lead
er of the Democrats for Prog
ress" faction in the May Is pri-
mary was reelected to the Demo
cratic State Central Committee
for another four-year term. The
central committee normally con-
trolls party machinery.
In June, 1859, he was APP
pointed to the Washington Sub
urban Sanitary Commission to
fill vacancy and in June 1861
was nominated by the County
Council and appointed by Gov.
Tawes to a full four-year term.
Decisions Of the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission
regarding location of water and
sewer lines can make fortunes
for land developers and Wheel
er sometimes acts as their pri-
vate legal counsel.
When this conflict arises,
Wheeler declines TO particl-
pate In the discussion and de-
cisiOn Of the WSSC.
In addition to his law practice
and handling Of leading coming
cases, often appearing before
public bodies, he is associated
with title firms that do a land
office business with developers
in the legal searching Of prop
erty deeds as new homes are
built.
For the last two years he
has served ON the sO.calIed
Council COordlnating Commit
tee which reviews county de-
velOpment problems including
future sewer construction
plans. Other committee mem
bers are Vice Chairman J.
Newton Brewer Of the Mary
Iand.NatiOnal Capital Park
and Planning Commission,
Superintendent Of Schools G.
Taylor Whittier and County
Manager Mason Butcher.
Associates know him as a
quiet, hardworking and affable
and his abilities are highly re.
spected by those who have
worked with him or observed
his activities IN politics, the
law, business, government, and
