SHADY GROVE TRANSFER STATION COMMUNITY MEETING
Mark your calendars as Councilmember Luedtke is hosting a free and public community meeting September 2 from 7 pm-8:30 pm at the MCDOT Highway Services Depot at 17000 Crabbs Branch Way.
The Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection will present and receive questions about impacts on the communities near the Shady Grove Transfer Station if the County were to move forward with switching from incineration to long-haul landfilling for the trash it collects.
UPCOMING KING FARM ALLEY ASPHALT PAVING PROJECT
Please note that an alley asphalt paving project is planned for the months of September and October 2026. Please prepare to provide management with an alternate contact if you will be out of town during this period.
The first phase of the paving project will begin in September and end in October. Because King Farm is densely populated with narrow streets and limited parking, there will be temporary inconveniences: restricted access to alleys, streets, parking spaces, and parking lots and street parking overcrowding. Park your vehicle in your garage if you do not need to access your vehicle during the 24-hour closure periods for maintenance. This helps reduce overcrowding street parking and allows residents, guests, and contractors who must park on the street better access.

Thank you for your cooperation.
ANNUAL PROPERTY LOT INSPECTIONS
2026 COMMUNITY INSPECTIONS ARE UNDERWAY
