Reminder: White Flint Town Hall Tomorrow

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

It’s a busy time for the White Flint Sector Plan. Lots of meetings. County Council hearings in October. On Friday, former Gov. Parris Glendening, now with Smart Growth America, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency senior policy analyst John Thomas, with County Councilmember Roger Berliner moderating, discussing “smart growth” and the White Flint Plan.

Please come and hear about the Plan from two of the authors: Montgomery County Planning Board Chair Royce Hanson, and former Vice-Chair John Robinson.

Tomorrow night, 7PM, at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission auditorium on Rockville Pike. Directions, parking, security and program info all at: www.townhall.whiteflint.org.

See you at the White Flint Town Hall meeting.

Fall Photo Essay Ideas?

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

As long-time readers know, the Friends of White Flint website changes themes with the seasons, and one of the biggest changes are the photo essays on the home and White Flint pages: flowers in the spring, farmers markets in the summer.

So, what should we showcase about White Flint in the fall? Leaves is the default, and traffic or roadwork not specific enough to fall. Someone suggested coffee shops, but there aren’t many of those.

Looking for ideas. Let me know, by commenting here, or directly at bzall@friendsofwhiteflint.org.

 Thanks, and hope to see you at tomorrow’s White Flint Town Hall. www.townhall.whiteflint.org.
