Are you bothered by the dust, noise, or idling-truck emissions from nearby houses under construction? Home improvements and new construction projects are a reality when you live in such a desirable neighborhood. Find out the rules and how to report violations. Note that generators, even for temporary power outages, must comply with county noise limits. See the new section, Residential Construction Tips, under “Huntington Terrace”. Thanks to EPA consultant and resident Vera Ashworth for her research in this area.
Community Yard Sale
All residents in Huntington Terrace are invited to participate in a community-wide yard sale on Saturday April 2 from 8am-3pm. (Rain date April 9). HTCA will pay for advertisement of this event and post signs along major streets. Residents are encouraged to host their individual sale of furniture, books, clothes, electronics, lemonade/brownies, etc. on their own property, or work with their immediate neighbors. Let Amy Shiman know if you want to participate (301) 803-7038. Support your community while re-cycling and re-using!
HTCA Spring Meeting
Please join us at the spring community meeting on Thursday, April 7 at 7pm at Bradley Hills Elementary School. We have invited the Department of Environmental Protection to inform us of county financial incentives and technical assistance to install landscaping at residential properties. (Up to $1,200 per home is available!). We will also discuss issues affecting the neighborhood, such as sidewalks on Greentree Rd., the park renovation at BHES, the hospital’s proposed expansion and other matters.
Huntington Terrace Turns 100!
Nothing says Huntington Terrace like Monster Truck. Ok, that may not be true, but it sure got everyone’s attention — especially when it was illuminated at night. Other attractions for the children included a moon bounce, face painting and a trampoline.
The adults enjoyed listening to jazz performed by neighbors, hot dogs and hamburgers provided by (and cooked) the Bethesda Community Store. It was a delightful way to celebrate our wonderful neighborhood’s 100th birthday.
