Montgomery County Historical Society Celebrates Sesquicentennial of Maryland Emancipation
Activities to be held on Saturday, November 1^st from noon to 4 pm, at Beall-Dawson Park in Rockville

Did you know that emancipation for Maryland slaves occurred on November 1, 1864, about two years after slaves in the District of Columbia and in Confederate states were freed, the latter by the Emancipation Proclamation? And that Maryland was the first of the Southern states to voluntarily free slaves within its boundaries by popular vote?

Join the Montgomery County Historical Society to celebrate the sesquicentennial of this important event, which dramatically affected the history of the West End, and during which two descendants of Rockville slaves will tell their family stories. Warren Crutchfield's great-great-great grandparents were owned by the Beall family, and the family still owns land and a home where they lived 150 years ago. And Sharyn Duffin will describe the lives and fortunes of her ancestors, who lived on Great Falls Road and in the area that became Lincoln Park. 

Engage with 1864 historic personality re-enactors, enjoy performances by Washington Revels Jubilee Voices, listen to descendants of Montgomery County slaves tell family stories, see exhibits of documents and artifacts, and more.   Museum admission is free.  For further information, visit  www.montgomeryhistory.org

Car Break-Ins in the West End

In mid-September, there were reports of a few cars being broken in to in the West End neighborhood. It appears the culprits were targeting loose change and entered cars that were unlocked.  Your best defense to prevent this from happening to you is to remain vigilant, lock your car doors, hide any valuable that may be seen in plain sight, and report anything suspicious to the police immediately.

Patrol shifts have been alerted to the criminal activity and are stepping up their patrols in the community.  If anyone has any information about the car break-ins, they are encouraged to call the Rockville Police Department at 240-314-8900 and ask to speak with an investigator.

About the 'Our Town' Project
Maryland Public Television's "Our Town" is a series of 60-minute programs showcasing Maryland municipalities. The first three installments profiled Chestertown, Hagerstown and Cumberland. The program illustrates what makes the community a special place to live and work through original film footage and commentary from area residents. The program features local landmarks and points of interest, with residents telling what they like about living and working in the community.

Work on the Rockville program will begin in September 2014. The documentary will air on MPT beginning in September 2015. MPT hosts a story conference with community leaders before filming begins. The results of the story conference define the content of the program. MPT provides handheld cameras to residents to gather the footage for the film.

For WECA Neighbors: Changes to Rockville's Recycling and Refuse Services

Dear WECA Neighbors – It is officially summer and we hope you are enjoying the start of the season (and exciting soccer games of the World Cup)! Our Neighbor Resources Coordinator at the City of Rockville has shared some information below on changes coming next month to our recycling and refuses services, which will affect many of us in the West End. If you have further questions, please attend or watch the Mayor and Council meeting tomorrow, Monday, June 23^rd or contact the City of Rockville Department of Public Works.

****

The Department of Public Works will brief the Mayor and Council during their Monday night meeting June 23, at 7 p.m., and provide the mayor and councilmembers with information regarding a new recycling and refuse program that will begin the week of Monday, July 28. Rockville's existing program entails collecting curbside recycling, refuse and yard waste generated by our resident customers; cart delivery and pick up; and the four special collections that are scheduled by appointment: bulk refuse, electronics, scrap metal and household hazardous materials. The City will move from a five-days-per-week, eight-hours-per-day schedule by eliminating Friday collections and moving to a four-days-per-week, 10-hours-per-day schedule. The new schedule and routes realize the following resource savings:

• ·         Greater collection efficiency allows fewer driving routes. Currently, the City has four collection crews for recycling and four more for refuse each day.
• ·         Having fewer routes eliminates the need to replace at least two collection vehicles. These two vehicles currently cost approximately $406,000.
• ·         Reducing collection days to four days each week (Monday through Thursday) also means avoiding the need for overtime pay for staff working on City holidays that periodically occur on Fridays. These days include New Year's Day (on a Friday in 2016), Fourth of July, Veteran's Day (on a Friday in 2016), and Christmas Day (on a Friday in 2015).
• ·         There will also be modest fuel and time savings by avoiding having to drive the collection vehicles between the Gude Maintenance Yard and the collection routes at the beginning and end of the eliminated fifth collection day, and through the reduction of number of trips to the Montgomery County Transfer Station and the recycling drop-off facility.
• ·         Except for sliding weeks (when collections slide to the next weekday due to a City holiday falling on Monday through Thursday), Friday collections will be eliminated. Residents currently scheduled for Friday collections will no longer have to avoid or delay leaving town for a weekend or prevailing upon the kindness of neighbors to ensure their carts are brought to and removed from the curb on Fridays.
• ·         Similarly, the new schedule completely eliminates the need for the collections staff to work and customers to bring carts to and from the curb on "sliding Saturdays."

These budget savings will help to offset other increased costs and help to keep the monthly refuse service fee (currently $31 per month or $372 per residence per year) as low as possible.

A few weeks prior to the start of the new schedule, staff will undertake a direct mailing to those customers who will be changing collection days. Designing new routes to be as efficient as possible required that more residents change their days than just the existing Friday customers.

WECA: Two Items of Interest

Dear WECA Neighbors – We wanted to inform you of two particular items that will be of interest, and happening very soon (this weekend, and starting next week)!

Peerless Rockville: Open House at Frieda’s Cottage and Annual Meeting for 40^th Anniversary

Our friends at Peerless Rockville are hosting an open house at Frieda’s Cottage (19 Thomas Street, Rockville, MD 20850), on the grounds of Chestnut Lodge, on Saturday, June 14^th from 11am to 1pm, in association with their annual meeting. Peerless Rockville restored this 1936 home and office to Frieda Fromm-Reichmann during her years at the Chestnut Lodge sanitarium. The cottage will be open for tours between 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. and rumor has it that Frieda will stop by to visit and meet with guests. They will also be serving up light refreshments, musical entertainment and cake in celebration of Peerless’ 40^th Anniversary.

For more information, visit www.peerlessrockville.org

Sewer Work and Associated Road Closures along Harrison Street

There is upcoming sewer work scheduled to take place along Harrison and Upton Streets. This work will involve installing sanitary sewer and man holes to allow a new home at 212 Harrison St. to connect to the City's sanitary sewer. Daytime road closures will be needed due to the nature of the work. Work is to start tentatively on Monday June 16, and could take 3 to 5 weeks, depending on weather and the paving schedule. This work is not a City of Rockville project, but rather permitted work done by private contractors. Those affected the most will be residents on Harrison Street, from Forest to N. Van Buren, and from Harrison Street, along Upton to Beall Avenue.

Enjoy your start to the summer in Rockville!

It will still be held at the Rockville Presbyterian Church and begin at 7pm. An agenda will be sent a couple days in advance.

For those neighbors interested in the City’s Bikeway Master Plan, below is information on an upcoming Planning Commission Meeting, from a recent City of Rockville press release:

The City's Planning Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing on the draft update of the Rockville Bikeway Master Plan on Wednesday, April 9 at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 111 Maryland Ave.

The hearing will be preceded by a public open house. City staff will be on hand to answer questions about the plan from 5-7 p.m. in the Blue Crab Room at City Hall.

The plan guides planning of the City's bicycle facility network. It was last updated in 2004, laying the groundwork for an expansion over the past decade to more than 34 miles dedicated to bicycles. The 2014 Bikeway Master Plan update offers the opportunity to shape the way people get around Rockville for years to come.

The Planning Commission heard a presentation of the draft plan on March 12. Video of the presentation is available at http://rockvillemd.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=2&clip_id=3098 .

City staff has also presented the draft plan and collected testimony during meetings with neighborhood associations. Staff remains available to visit neighborhood associations and other groups to discuss the plan. Please call Transportation Planner/Bicycle and Pedestrian Coordinator Kevin Belanger at 240-314-8509 to schedule a staff visit.

The 2004 Bikeway Master Plan, Draft 2014 Bikeway Master Plan and Draft Bikeway Recommendations Map can be viewed at www.rockvillemd.gov/bikewaymasterplan .

Those wishing to testify during the Planning Commission hearing may sign up by calling 240-314-8200  by 4 p.m. on Wednesday. Priority will be given to speakers who sign up in advance.

WECA Request and Of-Interest Items

Request for Donations to WECA

As you probably know, your West End Citizens Association (WECA) is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization.  We do incur costs, including the publishing of a twice-yearly newsletter which is distributed to 1,500 households, a voluntary and modest donation to the Rockville Presbyterian Church who graciously provides our meeting space, as well as some other small, administrative costs to keep the organization operating smoothly. Some these costs are off-set by advertising revenue from our newsletter, however, we are not always able to fill the cost/revenue gap. Therefore, we are reaching out to you as our neighbors, and requesting you consider making a small donation to WECA. This is completely voluntary, and we promise to continue vigilantly watching out for our entire neighborhood’s best interests no matter what.

If you would like to donate, please make a check out to “WECA” (cash is also accepted) and send it to our WECA Treasurer, Dennis Cain, at 502 Carr Avenue, Rockville, MD 20850. No tax deduction can be claimed since we are not a registered 501 (c)(3) organization. Thanks for your support.

Demolition of 255 N. Washington (the pink bank building)

Some will clap and some will cry – either way, the landscape around Town Square will be changing this week. Demolition on the pink bank building (at 255 N. Washington Street) will start on Monday, January 27^th. There is not a scheduled time as the work will proceed throughout the day. The activity that has been going on for the last few weeks is asbestos removal in the office spaces and building utility terminations.

 Sanitary Sewer Repairs in Rockville and West End

The Rockville Department of Public Works has contracted to make repairs to sanitary sewers around Rockville and our neighborhood Feb. 3 through March 28. Locations include Great Falls Road and East Jefferson Street in the West End, among others around the City. Temporary lane closures and parking restrictions may be necessary. If you will be affected and asked to refrain from using water during specific hours while the work is being performed, the contractor will place a notice on your front door two business days in advance. Repairs of each segment are expected to take one day to complete (weather permitting) and not all segments of each street will be rehabilitated during this project. For more information, contact Jim Woods, Rockville Project Manager at (240) 314-8521  or  jwoods@rockvillemd.gov
