Town Meeting (January 11, 2007)

The SSARPC’s Town Meeting on January 11th was held at Sherwood High School.  There were over 100 people in attendance.  The agenda covered the current status of development on the Southeast Corner of New Hampshire Avenue and Route 108 (Ashton Meeting Place - AMP), the Northeast Corner, and the site immediately to the west of the Southwest Corner.

SSARPC was pleased to have Fred Nichols and Phil Perrine representing the AMP and Northeast Corner developers, and Joe Pearson representing Chevy Chase Bank, in attendance.  They answered specific questions from the audience (covered below).
