Chestnut Lodge Meeting Announcement

Streetscape Partners, LLC will be working in conjunction with the owner of the Chestnut Lodge property (Chestnut Lodge Properties, Inc.) to build out a portion of the remaining new single family lots that were approved pursuant to Exploratory Application PRU2005-00022 and Detailed Application PRU2006-0022A. Streetscape Partners LLC has submitted to the City of Rockville additional architectural elevations for the new single family detached homes proposed to be constructed on the Chestnut Lodge property for review and approval. Please note that no changes to the approved Detailed Site Plan in terms of lot configuration, lot size, layout, project amenities, landscaping and/or other requirements are being proposed.

A special community meeting will be held (hosted by the West End Citizen's Association) to provide you an opportunity to become fully aware of the development intentions and to give you an opportunity to comment on the proposed elevations. The community meeting will be held on Thursday, May 13th at 7:00PM in the Mayor and Council Chambers at City Hall, located at 100 Maryland Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 20850. At this meeting the representatives of Streetscape Partners will make every effort to illustrate how the property will be developed and to answer any questions.

In addition, two (2) public meetings will be held by the City on this matter the first by the Historic District Commission on Thursday, May 20th at 7:30pm, and the second by the Planning Commission on Wednesday, June 23rd at 7:00pm.
