Chevy Chase Section Five on Dec. 10 approved traditional holiday cash bonuses for the sanitation and recycling crew and the Section's two police officers and discussed local operations and safety concerns.
An unnamed resident raised concerns about speeding on Leland Street and motorists running the stop sign at Glendale Road and Leland Street. Captain Jason Cokinos said Section officers have been posted at those locations, that officers are issuing tickets and that the Section will notify the County's second district police unit to provide additional assistance.
The Town Manager presented the monthly financial report (details not specified in the transcript) and reported that the Council has interviewed multiple candidates and hopes to announce a new Town Manager soon. The manager also updated residents on work planned for Leland Court, including new curbs, gutters, sidewalks and street maintenance; draft plans were prepared by consulting engineering firm Clark Azar and Associates, reviewed by the Section's arborist and building administrators, and submitted to WSSC for review and approval.
