Ever~ year in recent memory, the city has talk~d about the need for Improving and renovating the Center Mall. Excerpts from recent city annual reports have referred to the need: . "~e ~ntinued improvement of the Center including addi-

t~onal hghtmg, resurfacing the parking lots, and repairing bad sidewalks and curbing." ( 1963). · ·

"Renovation of the shopping center and better lighting of streets and parking lots in commercial areas.'' (1964)

"Plans are nearing completion and construction will prob­ably be undertaken for the renovation of the Center Mall. Pro­~rammed in this project is the replacement of all pavement, new hghts, new benches, and attractive landscaping. This project is programmed to cost about $40,000." ( 1967)

. Finall~, the latest annual report rather cryptically, perhaps rather resignedly, refers to a future which will include "the renovation of the Center Mall."

. T,Pe city has made some progress in this area. A new light· -mg system along Centerway has been installed and the parking

plans for the renovation of the Center Mail seems as elusive as ever.

In the meantime, residents are complaining about broken and crumbling sidewalks that are safety hazards to w:cl~<::crs and about_ the general run-down condition and unattr::.ctive appearance of the Center Mall.

What is holding up progress? Generally speaking, the city has- encountered two problems. The first is that the plans drawn up by landscape architect, T. D: Donovan, were not able to attract bids within the scope of the costs allocated of $40,000, and the second involves the financing of the operation. ·

According to a communication received by the city, the applicants are willing to accept the recom· mendatlons of the Prince Georges County Planning Board for parcels 1 and 2. These recommendations were to deny R-30 zoning <14 apart­ment units per acre l and to reserve 89 acres aS' R-80 · (single-family homes) and 36 acres as R-T -(town­houses).

Origiqal Plans The architect's original plans, developed in 1967, called for

$40,000 to be spent in, up-grading the city-owned. property that lies between Centerway and the statue. About $28,000 was to be spent for new benches, drinking fountairl$, PP!~ lights, __ r~- . placement of all sidewalks with nev.· concrete ones, and other ornamental work. There was also to be a new setting for·the statue, including a brick retaining wall and a background of low-level hedges. Benches were to be located in an inner

----s<:J:illH'-e-se-as to-be-out-of the maillStream of traffic. Another $11,000 was to be spent for landscaping, including

shade trees, azalea bushes, and other shrubbery, as well as a permanent Christmas tree.

When bids were asked for in March 1969, they came in -some $16,000 above the budgeted amount. CitY-manager James Giese's reaction at that time was that through negotiation with the contractor and by deleting such items as the landscaping and the retaining wall for the statue, the work could be done within the cost allocations.

Financial Problems Since then, however, another problem has arisen, involving

the financing of the project. In September 1968, the city council approved a special assessment technique for financing the center mall improvment so that half the $40,000 cost would be paid by the city and the other half by the benefiting property owners in the area. Assessment would be on ad valorem bases (taxes pro­portionate to assessed valuation) for those properties within the special taxing district making up the commercial center. The cost would be spr-ead over a 10-year period.

The property owners in the center, however, protested the creation of a special taxing district and the assessment. Their position was that the renovation plan was of chief benefit to the city as a whole rather than to the commercial businesses. They stated that the mall was the center of many civic functions and was surrounded by many city and public buildings.

The rity, on the other hand, felt that it was giving recog­nition to this point of view by agreeing to pay half the cost. The city further felt that it would be difficult to justify using tax funds coming from the entire community - including Springhill Lake, which had its own supported :;hopping center - to cov!'r th!' l'ntire cost of t,he renovation.

The Greenbelt Professional Building, Inc. (medical center) successfully filed a suit in the Prince Georges Cil·cuit Court, as the result of which Judge Willia~ B. Bowie ruled on March 23, 1970 that the c1ty of Greenbelt could not establish a special taxing district unless it was specifically limited in purpose to the payment of principal and interest on bonds. (The special taxing district had been used to finance the operation and main­tenance of the commercial center also.)

The city is now in the process of working up a new or­dinance establishing a special taxing district that .will meet the requirements of the law. Thil; will take time, as' will also the letting of contracts for the renovating work ..

SilL Gas Sta~lnn

The other· hearing 1~n rezoning 0.8529 acres in Springhill Lake from R-18 <apartment) to C-2 to ev~'ntually permit construction of a gas station will be held as sched­uleif-oiJ !.rarch--19-Tn--thc- County -Service Building in Hyattsville.

The council rcport~d last ~fon­day night that it Is in receipt of a letter from Springhill Lake own­llrs- !A.-H.-Small, T. N. -berner, and H. Kramer) providing certain as­surances with respect to the gas station. These assurances were necessary because under the Char­ter provisions, conditional zoning Is no longer permissible.

Conditions had been attached to the original C-2 zoning application. Now, the subject property must first be rezoned to C-2 without con­ditions, and then there must be an­other request for a special excep­tion for permission operate part of the property as a gasoline fill­Ing station. The city, therefore, cannot look to the C-2 zoning ap­proved by the District Council for assurances that the 0.8:129 acres will be used for a gas station ex­clusively.

In a letter dated Mar<'h 12, 1971. the owners of Springhill LAke made the following guarantet's :·

"1. \.Y•' unconditionally guarant•'r that the pru·t of the subject prop­f'rty to bP tlrvdoped will be usr<l n" a gasoline filling station.

"Unfounded Charges" To thl' Editor:

I ha,·e at hand a part of a page of a rE>markabiE> document. The top was cut off before I receivl'd it; perhaps if it had remained. I would know who was responsible. It appE'ars to concern a new or­ganization whose purposl' Is to "recreate Greenbelt Homes. Inc. as a place for families to live at mod­erate cost as conceived by our founding fathers." Since the docu­r·~nt was delivered to many GHI homes. I believe GHI members would be interestl'd in a reply.

Several statements are made in the document which purport to be facts. but which are simply not true! I shall confine this dis~us­sion to answering one sentence. which I quote:

"Since 1962 our assets and Cor­poration Equity have dropped by several hundreds of thousands of

have steadily risf'n beyond safety." A statement of Assets. Liabilities

and Equity as of December 31. 1962. shows: Total Assets, $7,213.545: Total Liabilities, ·$4,205,228: Tota! Equity, $3.008,317. '

A similar statement as of De­r••mber 31 1970, >indicates: Total

1--------"-'i.Selts, .$l.904,177; Total Liabilities, 52,986,421: Total Equity, $4,917.756.

Instead of a drop of several hun­drl'ds of thousands of dollars in <'quity, we have made a gain of 81.909,439.

Thf1 Police Bloltf1r What Chief William B. Lane

wryly entitled "The Case of thl' False Prophet" occurred Wednes­day, March 5. when a Springhill Lake resident, acting on woman's intuition. reported that a man in clerical attire was soliciting money for a religious mission in Brazil. As a result the police apprehendl'd a 26 year-old College Park resident. a recent Univ. of Md. graduate In Personnel Administration. and chargl'd him with acting undfr false pretenses. They impoundl'd $10.30 which he had collected, some of which was returned. He receiv­ed a six-month sentence which was reducl'd to 12 days In jaiL

On March 12, in the process of checking a car for a parking viola­tion. Officer Brumley arrestl'd a male and a female young adult for possession of narcotics, marijuana

arrest. two young mt'n were arres­ted in the parking lot near Candy Cane City when they were observ­l'd inhaling airplane glue from a paper bag.

The police have recelvl'd 14 drug abuse manuels, supplied by the Bal­timore cit)' ~Jjce and the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, for each patrolman to carry with him as p~rt of the state-wide cf­fort to combat drugs.

A Berwyn Heights resident was charged with disorderly conduct when he was observed kicking at a door and making verbal threats at the home of a Greenbelt resi_-· dent. A job dispute appeared to be the cause.

Further figures released by the police department:

Cost $4.488.83. Similar units are 1969 1970

Dialogue Wanted To the t:CUtor:

Th<' annual GHI election will be held in mid-May. One may antic­ipatl' that soon the air will be filled with divergent views. charges and counter-charges, more than usual if recent events are a guide. So that GHI members may make in­formed choices, we ha\'e a sugges­tion.

- . .We urge.J.haLiherc .. be a panel discussion among GHI .,Board mem­bers and some of their outstanding critics to be followed by a period when questions could be addressed to both. - '!'he discussion should be under an impartial moderator or a chairman. llf this is ar,rangl'd, former Councilman and GHI mem­ber William Hoff, former GHI member James Cassels. or others, could be persuaded to fill this role. l Late-April might be a good time, the Library or the Center School a good place.

It would be worthwhile to hear more from the critics on the 10 per­cent Increase In monthly ~es and on an analytical audit propos­ed by some. The membership would like .... to hear the views of both the critics and the Board on the subjects they raise. · What is the status of our capital improve­ments program; of our reserves and working capital? What is the re­lationship of new homes to the older brick or frame units? The critics claim they do not have ac­cess to analytical and critical data or breakdowh on fiscal and budget. matters. The --H-oard continues to

·the basis of experience, answers to questions at the formal board meetings are inadequate, presum­ably because of other pressing business.

We shall be happy to formulate a methodology that would enable : an orderly conduct of the meeting. The-proposed meeting -between the critics and the Board shall not be . under the auspices of the latter nor shall its members In any way be the "prlvlllged speakers." Any suggestions to materialize the pro­posed meeting, the topics to be con­sidered, and procedures to conduct it will be highly appreciated, from the membership. These suggestions may be mailed to either of us.

County Council Recesses Hearing, on Parcels 1, 2

by Elaine Skolnik ~t ~ri~ay's Hyatts~ill~ zoning hearing before the County

Council. (sittmg .as the District Council) on parcels 1 and 2 pro­duced httle testunony but a great many surprises the ehief one being the self-disqualification of two council m~mbers, former Mayor Francis W. White and Gladys Noon Spellman. As the result of the disqualifications and the absence of two other councii mem­bers, Charles E. Callow and Francis B. Francois, the 11-meinber county council found itself eventually with a seemingly insufficient number of members to hold a hearing on a :iiOning matter involving a municipality recommendation.

According to Maryland law, a ·county council needs a two-thirds majority (8 votes) to overturn a municipality recommendation and an approved master plan. A ques­tion on whether an absent member can vote later based on a readillg. of the testimony was raised but could not be answered.
