Rockville to Hold Open House about Historic Preservation and Heritage Area
The City of Rockville Community Planning and Development Services staff invite you to an Open House on Thursday, June 21, 2012 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the main lobby of City Hall at 111 Maryland Avenue in Rockville, MD.
The Open House will be the public kick-off event for two separate but related City planning & historic preservation projects:
      1) the Historic Preservation Element of the Comprehensive Master Plan, and
      2) the Heritage Area Amendment to join the Montgomery County Heritage Area.
The Open House will be the first of several opportunities for the public to provide input on both projects. City staff will be on hand to describe the planning process, answer questions, and hear your ideas.  Visit our Web site at  http://www.rockvillemd.gov/historic/index.html  for more information about historic preservation in Rockville or call 240-314-8230.
