Landover Hills workshop sets election calendar, reviews charter amendments and anniversary plans; MNCPPC accepting Flats at Glenridge Station application
Summary
Council discussed the town's 80th anniversary planning, reviewed eight proposed charter amendment resolutions (public hearing set for March 17, 2025), provided May 2025 election dates, and noted that MNCPPC is ready to accept an application for the Flats at Glenridge Station.
At its Jan. 13, 2025 workshop the Landover Hills Town Council discussed community events, election logistics and planning for proposed charter amendments.
Mayor Jeffrey Schomisch said the town will mark its 80th anniversary this fall and that information to join the planning committee will be posted in the town newsletter to recruit volunteers. Mayor Schomisch also reviewed several announcements: that the Prince George's County Municipal Association will hold its February meeting at Landover Hills Town Hall; that a vacancy exists on the District 4 seat of the Board of Education and the board will appoint a successor through December 2028; and that the Maryland–National Capital Park and Planning Commission (MNCPPC) has notified the town it is ready to accept the application for the Flats at Glenridge Station development, though no hearing date has been set.
The council conducted a section-by-section review of updates to eight town charter amendment resolutions and agreed to review and introduce the resolutions at the Jan. 21, 2025 Town Council meeting; the minutes record a public hearing scheduled for the regular session on March 17, 2025. Town Assistant staff were asked to ensure the resolutions are included in the town newsletter.
Other items discussed included the annual Christmas Lights awards (four addresses were identified as winners and each will receive a $25 prize), a note that the town completed its Sustainable Communities Program 2024 renewal application, a plan by town staff to publish local businesses offering snow-removal assistance for residents, and an update that vandals damaged the Veterans Memorial lights (a $6,000 repair invoice has been forwarded to LEGIT Insurance and repairs are expected by spring).
The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
