County Council to Host Town Hall Meeting in Clarksburg

The Montgomery County Council will meet with residents at a Town Hall Meeting in Clarksburg on Feb. 26 at 8 p.m. at Rocky Hill Middle School. A pre-meeting reception will begin at 7:30 p.m. 

Council President Craig Rice, Vice President George Leventhal, and councilmembers Phil Andrews, Roger Berliner, Cherri Branson, Marc Elrich, Nancy Floreen, Nancy Navarro and Hans Riemer are expected to attend.

“We are constantly seeking new and better ways to find out what most concerns County residents,” said Council President Rice. “We are always looking at how new technology can help residents contact us on the things that are important to them. However, there remain few better ways for elected officials to interact with residents than meeting with them directly at forums such as Town Hall Meetings. With so much going on in Clarksburg, we are all looking forward to this meeting.”

The meeting is open to the public and residents will be encouraged to ask questions.

Among the issues that are expected to be discussed are the continued development of Clarksburg, efforts to protect the Ten Mile Creek area, schools, transportation needs, public safety, and the upcoming process to formulate the County’s Fiscal Year 2015 operating budget.
