INCREASES IN PARK FEES PROPOSED Public to Testify Thursday, November 1, 2001 Certain permit fees charged for the use of athletic fields, local park picnic shelters, recreation buildings and administrative services have not increased since 1994. Yet the cost of providing quality facilities and services has risen over 13% in the last five years. The Department of Park and Planning is recommending increases in some of theses fees to be effective July 1, 2002. Copies of the fee recommendations are available at the Park Permits Offices in Silver Spring (9500 Brunett Avenue) or in Germantown (the Up-County Government Center, 12800 Middlebrook Road) or on the internet at www.mc-mncppc.org. Your comments on these proposals are welcomed when the fees are presented to the Montgomery County Planning Board on Thursday (late afternoon), November 1, in the Planning Board’s Auditorium, 8787 Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring. If you prefer you may send your written comments prior to November 1 to: Mr. Arthur Holmes, Jr., Chairman, Montgomery County Planning Board, 8787 Georgia Avenue, Silver Spring, MD, 20910, or fax to (301) 495-1320. |

DEER DAMAGE
CONTROL WORKSHOPS AVAILABLE FREE
To Homeowners Associations, Civic Organizations, And Garden Clubs
Increased deer populations have had a number of impacts on suburban Montgomery County. Deer have added aesthetic value to the area, but the increasing deer population has had undesirable effects as well including damage to home landscapes and gardens, and increased risks of Lyme disease. The
Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and the Montgomery
County Cooperative Extension Office are co-sponsoring educational workshops
to help homeowners cope with and minimize deer damage to their landscapes and
gardens. Workshops stress an
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach and provide homeowners with proven
strategies to reduce deer problems.
Workshops are 1 ˝ to 2 hours in length and offered free of charge. A minimum of 20 attendees is required. To schedule a workshop for your Homeowners/Civic Association or Garden Club, please call the Montgomery County Cooperative Extension Office at (301) 590-2809. |
Free Slide Presentation on County
Parks
Now Available to Civic Groups
The Montgomery Parks Foundation, a non-profit organization that supports unmet park needs in Montgomery County, is offering a fascinating PowerPoint slide presentation on the evolution of Montgomery County’s nationally acclaimed park and open space system. This one-half hour program features slides of the early development of Rock Creek and Sligo Creek parks, a review of the “wedges and corridors” concept that led to protecting county stream valleys and the concentration of development in certain areas, the highly successful Agricultural Reserve program, and the newest initiative for acquiring parkland and open space -- the Legacy Open Space program. In addition to providing an historical perspective on Montgomery County’s development, this program provides viewers with an armchair look at the breathtaking beauty and first class facilities offered in our county parks. Volunteer projects and private-public partnerships are highlighted to demonstrate how community groups and area businesses can get involved in preserving this outstanding legacy. For further information, call (301) 767-0002 or e-mail info@montgomeryparksfnd.org. The Foundation’s web site is www.montgomeryparksfnd.org. |
