Is Upset

My family and 1 recently
moved into a new community
behind Wildwood Shopping Gen.
ter under the assumption that
this would be a quiet, low-traf-
fic area. / am quite surprised
and upset to learn that a re-
coming application Cease c.
1881 is now pending for the
construction of a high-rise
apartment building at the inter-
lection of Old Georgetown Road
and 70-S.
Over a thousand of my neigh
bors have already registered
their indignation at this poten-
tial traffic hazard on a petition
to disapprove this application. 1t
would be a shame If the safety
of the hundreds of children in
this area IS to be jeopardized
for the financial benefit of one
builder.

Main Concern

A year ago the people of
Montgomery County sold their
birthright for a mess of pottage.
Their birthright was representa-
tive government; the pottage,
the Republican candidates
promise of a tax cut.
The tax cut materialized. 1t
granted very little relief to the
average citizen but was of con.
siderable benefit to the devel.
oper and to the real estate in.
terests.
Along with the meager tax
cut We really got a mess-over-
crowded and understaffe d
schools, threatened curtailment
Of civil rights and liberties, and
now every homeowner in the
county faces the possibility of
commercial rezoning in his
neighborhood or even in his
backyard.
The people in Wildwood
Manor who last week lost a
courageous battle to keep their
community a safe and pleasant
place in which to live, are not
the first to be ignored by their
elected representatives, nor will
they be the last.
Until our highly educated
populace stops being politically
and economically naive. we are
faced with the prospect of a
continuing autocratic govern.
ment catering to special inter-
ests.
If we want to live in a county
with excellent schools, free of
the smoke and smog of indus
try, its landscape not entirely
dominated by high-rise apart.
ments; then we will have to be
willing to pay for this privilege.
If our main concern is with
low taxes, then we must put
up with what we have and shut
up!

Prior Commitment

A year ago we purchased a
new home near the site of the
area in which the county coun-
Gil is considering rezoning from
residential to high-rise as a re.
suit of the Aubinoe petition.
Prior to our purchase, we con-
suited the North Bethesda Mas
ter Plan for assurance that we
would be living in a residential
area.
If the county council APP
proves the Aubinoe application,
we feel it is going back on
prior commitments to residents
of this area and all citizens of
the county.
Roger G. DitzeI
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1963-12-19

of the rezoning petition are
that: Old Georgetown Road is
most inadequate to accommo-
date anymore traffic; the
schools in this area are already
over crowded; according to the
North Bethesda Master Plan
this area is suitable for resi-
Dental use only; the approval
of this petition would establish
precedence for the property
owners of the other three cor.
ners and allow no justifiable rea-
son for not approving their petit
ton for high rise apartments.
At present, any more traffic
on Old Georgetown Road would
certainly be a hazard. Thou
sands of the taxpayers dollars
would have to be spent to rede-
sign and reconstruct a new in
terchange to comply with high
density facilities. This resultant
spending of the taxpayers dol
lars is certainly NOT in accord
with the Republican party cam
paign promises of the last cleo
ton.
1t is interesting to note that
this petition is contrary to the
North Bethesda Master Plan
which was approved by the
Park and Planning Commission.
At the time the plan was ap-
proved Mr.. John Floyd, pres
emily President of the County
Council, was a member of the
Park and Planning Commission
and voted for approval of the
North Bethesda Master Plan.

Obnoxious

The straw vote of the Mont
gomery County Council, last
week, indicating a bare MAORI
ty in favor of a rezoning action
for the proposal of one Alvin
L. Aubinoe to build a high rise
apartment in a residential area
created by him, shows how far
this Council has degenerated in
favoring propertied interests for
partisan political gain. Only one
of the five Republicans on the
Council voted with the two lone
Democrats in opposition to the
scheme.
The Aubinoe plot is to set a
huge lat least 600 family units,
some say 900 high rise apart
ment on property that is now
part Of a large tract of single
family residences promoted by
the same Aubinoe who has sold
homes to more than 300 fami-
lies on the basis of good sub
stantial home ownership. The
obnoxious apartment clearly
will upset plans and hopes of
many, If it is carried through
as planned.
What should be of real inter-
est to the citizens of this county
who happen to live away from
these parts, and whose proper
ties and lives will not be affect
ed by the move, is the danger
Gus trend being taken by this
Council. Its partisan attitude is
apparent, its wish to turn back
the clock to the laissez faire
traditions of decades ago, is
plain to see. Because this Coun-
Gil has rezoned record num-
Der of properties, and the pre-.
cedents and trends it is setting
are sure to cause a great dis
ruption in carefully laid plans
long holding sway in the coun-
ty. II the Washington complex
were to stop growing today, all
would be well-but that kind of
clock-stopping seems to be what
these people want.
Most ironical of all is the fact
that the Council President, John
Floyd, has voted with the Re.
publican majority in this straw
vote, and he, who has hereto
fore demonstrated a great in.
terest in the public welfare and
necessity, is turning away from
the very carefully balanced mas
ter plan in which he was one
of the architects. What kind of
a man is John Floyd? What
kind of a Council is this, with
its wish to destroy the very
plans laid down by its own
planning group? 1t is not as if
Aubinoe is a hardship case--he
is a landed gentleman Of many

Aubinoe Tower

This action was taken over
the organized objections of a
large majority of the residents
of Wildwood Manor, Wildwood
Knobs, Lux Manor, Ashburton
and Marymount, who will be
more directly affected by the
presence of the Aubinoe Tower
Some of the same members
Of the County Council who are
appearing before the Grand
Jury in the Sam Fig case were
the proponents Of the rezoning
for Aubinoe. Aubinoe is a Re.
publican party leader.
One council member, Thomas
M. Wilson, a Republican, voted
against the rezoning. I expect
to support him If he runs for
political office in the future.
However, as a lifelong Repub.
lican who has voted the ticket,
contributed to campaign funds
and urged my friends and
neighbors to do likewise, / can
no longer continue this policy.

licans in Bethesda l am now

Best Interest

For the best interest of our
community / object to having
project C-1133 at 70S and Old
Georgetown Road approved. 1t
was my understanding at the
time I purchased my home at
9707 Montauk Ave-, Bethesda,
that projects such as this would
not be permitted.

properties, banks and business
interests. What's more, he can
get properly zoned property
elsewhere, so why pick on US?
What is most pertinent is
that this policy of setting aside
so many coming cases is dan
gerous for all citizens of our
County. The Council is siding
with those who believe in the
slogan, "Caveat Emptor".

Don't Wont

1t seems to me that a very
important issue has been buried
under a wealth of testimony.
The issue is a very important
one because this decision by the
council does not represent the
sentiments of the majority of
residents in the Wildwood area.
1t is a matter of record that
the Wildwood home owners do
not want high.rise apartments
in this area. I wonder If the
council considered this fact
when they voted on this ques-
ton.

1t seems Incredible to us that

Failure to comply with the

an obvious political, psychology

singing in what is becoming a
tradition In Smyrna. The child
rem rode In three large trail
ers filled with straw drawn by
a tractor. This year the start
was made from Asbury Metho-
dist Church, and the women of
the church served hot chocolate
and cookies on the return. The
carol singing was inaugurated
several years ago at St. Peters
Episcopal Church and has now
grown TO encompass three
church groups, including the
First Presbyterian Church. The
children sang carols and lusd-
ly shouted Christmas greetings
when residents came to their
doors to greet the carolers.
The route encompassed Lake
