Chevy Chase Town Council Meeting

The Council of the Town of Chevy Chase will hold an important meeting tomorrow. Among other issues on the agenda will be:

• Adoption of the budget for fiscal year 2008;
• Public Hearing and Council Action on an Ordinance to Amend Chapter 4 of the Town of Chevy Chase Municipal Code to Modify Provisions Related to Structures, Fences, Walls, Trees, Hedges, Shrubbery and Other Plant Growth on Public Property Devoted to Private Use; and
• Public Hearing and Council Action on an Ordinance to Amend Chapter 4 of the Town of Chevy Chase Municipal Code to Modify the Method of Calculating the “Established Building Line”.

The budget includes the appropriation by the Council to look at the impact of the proposed Purple Line light rail on the Town. The Council already held a hearing on the topic as well as the budget as a whole, so town residents will not be able to speak on it. However, town residents can participate in the two public hearings as well as during the public comments section.
