  • Open the Trestle" Rally County Executive Doug Duncan Announces Support for the Trestle and the Trail by Wayne Phyillaier/CCCT Chair
    HERESCENT Fall 1999 Vol X No. 4 Coalition Hosts "Open The Trestle" Rally County Executive Doug Duncan announces support for the trestle and the Trail By Wayne Phyillaier/CCCT Chair One of the best ways to build support and stewardship of the Capital Crescent Trail is to provide opportunities for trail users and local residents to experience trail advocacy in a personal way. On Saturday, October 23d, the Coalition for the Capital Crescent Trail did just that. Trail lovers from all around the metropolitan area participated in Coalition-sponsored hikes, both walking and biking, to the Rock Creek Park trestle for an "Open The Trestle" rally. Several Coalition Board members addressed the rally, and outlined why I repairing and opening the trestle for Trail use was essential for completing a first class interim trail to Silver Spring. Results of a Coalition sponsored I engineering design study were presented that show how the trestle can be rebuilt for Trail use at a t Dozrg Dz~ncanut rally fraction of the cost of building a new bridge. Joining rally participants was Montgomery County Executive, Mr. Doug Duncan, who spoke in support of completing the Trail. In a surprise announcement, Mr. Duncan pledged to put funding to rebuild the trestle in the upcoming FY 2001-2002 budget. He challenged trail supporters to do their part and get the support of the five County Council members needed to pass the budget. Mr. Duncan's pledge of support is a very welcome event, and allows the Coalition to focus its advocacy for the trestle on the Montgomery County council.

    MarylandInfluencers f there was one place where the Democratic Party could take sol- ace on Election Day 2010, it was Maryland, a rock that broke part Iof the red tide sweeping the country. In a year where Republi- cans hoped to make gains across the board, Democrats proved their dominance in the biggest races, holding the governor’s mansion in a landslide, losing just a handful of seats in the state House of Delegates, and actually gaining ground in the state Senate. Any doubts about how deep blue Maryland is—particularly within the state’s heavily populated central corridor—were surely dissipated. Yet the next few years will be pivotal for both parties. Age and term limits are taking their toll on veteran officeholders, opening up op- portunities for ambitious Republicans and Democrats alike to make their mark. The blood sport of redistricting will play out as well.

  • Basin Bridge Board of Inquiry Representation by Nina Arron, Submitter 103484
    Basin Bridge Board of Inquiry Representation by Nina Arron, submitter 103484 1. I am an urban planner and former Wellington resident. I now live in New Rochelle, New York. 2. I view the proposed flyover as an outdated 20th Century solution to something that I do not believe is even a problem. We are in a time of transition to more sustainable modes of transport and improved walkability, cycling and public transport options over designing solely for the private car. 3. This transition is driven by the desire for a more sustainable transport system, but it is also driven by evidence from many countries that there is a mismatch between transport agencies’ modelling, which assumes that the use of cars will continue to grow on a “business as usual” basis, and a reality that is rapidly undermining that assumption. 4. I have provided an Appendix of supplementary material. This consists of an article which I wrote for Wellington online news site Scoop entitled “Transportation in the 21st Century: The Modelling/Reality Gap”, published on 11 November 2013. Together with this article, I have included the text of three references linked to in the article, showing recent examples from the US, Canada and Australia of transport projects that have failed to meet or even come close to their stated goals because transport modellers projected continued traffic growth which failed to eventuate. 5. This phenomenon can also be observed in New Zealand, as the final article I have supplied, “Kiwi Teens Turn Off Driving”, shows. To quote from the article: A worldwide trend known as "driving ambivalence" has hit young people in New Zealand.

  • Remarks by Montgomery County Council President Steve Silverman at Committee for Montgomery Annual Breakfast December 5, 2001
    Remarks by Montgomery County Council President Steve Silverman at Committee for Montgomery Annual Breakfast December 5, 2001 Good morning. I want to thank the Committee for Montgomery for inviting me to talk with all of you this morning. Last year’s General Assembly session was a great success for Montgomery County. Much of the credit goes to our delegates, led by Kumar Barve; our senators, led by Ida Ruben; and our county executive Doug Duncan. Their hard work and team work paid off. But many of you in this room were also important partners in our county’s success. There are too many examples to mention, but having said that, I’m going to mention some anyway. There’s Gene Counihan, who is helping to build a new Olney Theatre and helping to better our business community through the Chamber of Commerce. There is Sally Sternbach who must have been incredibly far sighted to leave AT&T before the telecom meltdown and transferred her energies to her community in Silver Spring and to education as president of the Blair High School PTSA. There is Fernando Cruz-Villalba who has pressed tirelessly for better health care and other needs of the Hispanic community. They and other members of Committee for Montgomery are leaders in so many different areas of this county. And yet you all take time out of your busy professional and community lives to come together on Montgomery County’s behalf to make sure our voice is heard in Annapolis. You’re an incredible resource for this county and this is my one time to be able to thank you publicly! Now more than ever, we will need your voice in Annapolis.

  • "Federation Corner" Column the Montgomery Sentinel - April 10, 2014
    "Federation Corner" column The Montgomery Sentinel - April 10, 2014 Season of campaign promises upon us again by Jim Humphrey Chair, MCCF Planning & Land Use Committee June 24, Primary Election Day, is approximately ten weeks away. And the chorus of promises resonating from the campaign trail is beginning to rise in volume, with incumbents and wannabes fighting for attention from Montgomery County voters. So this might be a good time for county residents to recall a key issue that faced us four years ago, and one which we still face today--the impact of new construction on worsening traffic congestion. Polls conducted by the Washington Post and the Baltimore Sun earlier in 2009 had showed growth and traffic congestion to be leading concerns across the state, but particularly in Montgomery County. County Executive incumbent Isiah Leggett said he would push to reinstate "policy area review," which used formulas to determine whether communities were too overwhelmed by traffic to accommodate new development. The developer friendly majority of a previous County Council, the self-labeled End Gridlock slate, had eliminated the process in 2003, with backing from former County Executive Doug Duncan. In November 2007 the members of the last Council instated a new policy area transportation test. However, Leggett objected to it saying it "provides results that do not accurately reflect actual transportation capacity, is difficult to understand and thus is not transparent to County residents," a sentiment echoed by many civic activists. It took the County Executive until March of 2010--two and a half years--to transmit to the Council his recommendation for an improved process.

A team led by Fluor Corporation, in a public-private partnership with the State of Maryland, will build seventeen new rail stations and four stops at existing Metrorail stations. The new transit corridor stretches sixteen miles from New Carrollton in Prince George’s County to Bethesda in Montgomery County, with the new stations split evenly between the two counties. In 2014, the Federal Transit Administration recommended $900 million in federal grants for the project. Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties are expected to contribute about $330 million, and the state estimates that it will spend $3.3 billion over 36 years on the Purple Line (Office of Governor Larry Hogan 2016).
