AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER Volume 32, Number 30 GREENBELT, MARYLAND Thursday, June 12,.1969

,Council Cuts Taxes 5c The germ of the idea for decora­ting the Crescent Rd. underpaSses came from James K. Giese, City Manager of Greenbelt, who had heard of 6 similar project; but the enthusiasm, the energy, the research to carry It out came from Mrs. Sandra Bracken, lQ-U South­way, a parent-volunteer who has been teaching art one day a week.· to classes at Center SchooL "When I saw Mr. Giese's letter posted on the bulletin board, offering the op­portunity, I could hardly believe my eyes!" Mrs. Bracken said.

•985,300 Budget Adopted by AI Skolnik

Public Hearing A five-cent drop in the city tax rate was voted by city council

on Monday, June 9, as it adopted a $985,300 municipal budget for the coming fiscal year 1969-70. City Manager James K. Giese had proposed continuation of the present property tax rate of $0.85 per $100 of assessed valuation.

by Virginia Beauchamp

A low-key and generally amiable attitude expressed by a handful of citizens constituted the public re­sponse to the city manager'~· pro­posed budget for the next fiscal year. Speaking out at a special public hearing on the budget on ' Wednesday, June 4, .ordinary citi­zens were easily outnumbered by the council itself, municipal offi­cers and department heads. The

The new budget -is 20.9 percent higher than the fiscal year 1969 budget appropriation of $815,100, but this is somewhat deceiving. A $40,000 item for the Greenbelt Shopping Ce11ter Mall renovation was shifted. from. the 19"69

delay in contracting for the pro­ject. At the same time, the rev­enues to pay for the project were also shifted, so that the net ef­fect on the budget was a 'wash­out. Excluding the center mall project, the new budget is $9·15,-300 or 16 percent above the pre­ceding year's budget, and $12.000 below the original budget recom­mended by Giese.

The new reduced tax rate of $0.80 was accomplished despite the fact that the 19i0 budget reflects for the fi·rst time the cost of the $950,000 bond issue for capital im­provements voted by the elector­ate last November. Interest costs for the general obligation bonds will mount to $36,000 during fiscal 1969 (nine. months). "----.

Surplus Funds Used

Helping to keep the tax rate down was the availability of $96,-800 in surplus funds from previous years' operations, including $20,000 In unexpended revenues for the center maU improvement. <The other $20,000 for the center mall improv(\lllent will be obtained through special assessment bonds levied against property owners In the center.)

·pigments. "We wanted intense, bright colors," Mrs. Bracken said, "not the ready-mixed pale pastels." Each participating group of chil­tlren decided what colors they would need, and Mrs. Bracken, to­gether \vith her. helper, Mrs. Shar­on Gilbert, 16-M Ridge, mixed the paint and poured It Into orange juice containers; which were then placed In coke cartons and trans­planted by wagon to the scene. The city's role In the pl"'ject was to supply the paint and td clean the walls beforehand for the juve­nile artists.

Prior PlannJnr In each case the painting pro­

ject was carefully Integrated Into the academic program of the par­ticipating class. About two weeks were spent prior to the painting session in learning about the his­tory of murals - even as far back as historic cave paintings-and In planning the project.

Another factor contributing to the reduced tax rate was a last­minute upward revision In the county's 1969-70 estimate of the Greenbelt assessable tax base from an average of $43.11 million to $44.11 mlll!on.

~4 Budgetary . Flat() This year, once again, there have been public complaints about

the city's budgetary Pf'Ocess. The gist of the·complaint is that the public is not aware of the attitude of the city council. individually or collectively, toward the budget prepared by the city manager tintil the night that the budget· is finally adopted. The Neu·s Re­

.1'ieu· has taken note of similar phenomena in other years. The council and city manager have been quite correct and

· proper in their handling of the budget. The manager prepares a budget that has every item fully and openly e~plained. The doc­ument is printed in readable form, given wide distributidn, and dVailable to one and all. In a series of meetings open to the public, thP individual items are re'viewed with the department heads. Then an .official public hearing. widelv advertised. is held at which 1ime the entire - - from all are wel-

. the budget is meeting in which each individual account is voted on.

The flaw is this. Except for scattered exchanges be-tween councilmen and witnesses, the public has no inkling of how the council feels about the budget and consequently cannot react. It i> able to express itself on the city manager's budget but not on what the council is going to do to the budget. This year only a -:vague hint by Ma'yor Smith in the last minutes of the Wednesday •(June 4) hearing alerted those present that council was contem­·plating a tax cut. But at no time prior to the night of the budget ·adoption (June 9) was there any public vote-taking by council, ·even un a preliminary basis.

Furthermore, it would appear from the unanimous voting on ·the individual items Monday night that all decisions had been . agreed upon privately beforehand. As one citizen in the audience remarked. the public is entitled to know what council was think­'ing when it made its decisions and compromises.

Probably the best defense for the city's procedures lies in the fact that it is difficult to make piecemeal decisions ·on individual Items .uptil one can seirthe entire budgetary picture- what are

· ·the relative needs of other departments and what would be the t2ffect on the city tax rate.

On the other hand, this approach tends to minimize the poss-Jbilitv of considering the worth of individual items on their own

·merit. Too often, the city council appproach is to predetermine a satisfactory tax rate. and then back into the tax rate by tailoring expenditures. with only secondary consideration to the need Dr de­

·mand for the items. Fortunately. the city in the last few years has been in the en­

viable position of being able to reduce taxes while providing in­•..::reased services. With the best of all possible worlds, the above­•destTibed "flaw'' in the budgetary process has faded into insigni­ficance. But at some time in the future, the twin goals of reduced

(alter excluding the center mall project). Other major items con­tributing to the cut were dele­tfon of $1,40Q for a tape recorder ~ for the police department and $1,000 for a new paint ~sprny machine, substitution of a part­time for a full-time elerk at the new Municipal Service Building, and reductions In e.'ltimated am­ounts needed for snow and Ice removal, street cleaning, and val­ley gutter replacement.

These decreases were offset ~ aome extent by small increues In the amounts -allowed for confer­ences, for Boys' Club uniforms and Aquatic Booster Club, for city cemetery matntenance, and for po­llee liability Insurance.

The question of additionaJ funds for park maintenance was resolv­ed by shifting $4,000 from stzeet parkway maintenance and oliler acoounts, but without authorizing additional public works staff. In response to a question regarding recommendations of Parks and Recreation Advillory Board, Smith saJd that the recreation budget W'Oilld permit of ad­ditional

Rezoning Approved For SHL Tract'

At its regular monthly meeting on June 4, the Prince Georges Plan­ning Board. a aubBidiary of ~ Maryland National Oapital Park and Planning Oommlsslon, &!!­proved a request by the developera of Springhill lake to rezone a 30.5-acre tmet of !aDd north of the Beltway from Its ·present apart­ment category of R-18. Zoning of C-0 WIIB ·approved tor 8 &eetfon of 22.8 acres for construction of commercial o1llce buildings. A 7.7 acre tract was approved for C-2 zoning, for a motel and conven­tion center to be placed adjacent to the Beltway.

Approval for the latter zoning change carried the sU~on that Its development must be '~ed to tbose uses related to a motel-· convention center cqmplex, the spe­ci:llc uses to be approved as part of an overall development plan to be a.pproved by the Prince Georges Planning Board." A further condi­tion of the approval was that a necessary access road be dedicated to tbe city.

In taking thi6 action tlle Board did · not Umit tbe developel'tl to the exact apeclllcaUOIIB of the de­velopment plan presented with the peUUon, J'eCOII\bdn1r that certain changes ml(lht be required when actual construction on the proper­ty began. But according to dle terms of the approval, the Board retains the rlgbt to grant or deny approval of any modHlcatlons later proposed.

the level of maintenance,_ except recently, along the lake -shore, stressing that some of his neigh­bors ·on OHvewood and Maplewood Cts. even cut grass along the pub­lic right of way and picked up lit­ter along the shoreline becatllll! conditions got so bad there - a form of action that Ed Thornhill later endorsed. lfhomhlll protes­ted that parks maintenance efforts seem not · to have been spread throughout the city but concen­trated in the ''more sophisticated end of town." He advocted volun~ teer efforts by citizens to keep the park areas clean and stressed the need to hold fhe line on ser­v!c~s In order to reduce Jhe bu<l• get.

Thornhill also questioned the need for a new driveway to con­nect the front and rear parking lots on the west side of the Fire­house ($2,600) and the allocation of $2,400 budgetetd for member­'ships for municipal officers in such assoclatiohs as the Maryland Muni­cipal League and the Council of Governments.

In response Mayor Edgar Smith stressed that this was "money well spent." Smith pointed out th'at by sharing ideas with leaders from other communities the council was able to. improve the quality of ser­vice to the city. Councilman Pils­ki also noted that such member­ships oftt'n had a dollars-and-

,. cents value far in excess of their cost, since through these associa­tions council members learned of federal and state grants available to Greenbelt. such as matching fund -grants for parkland acquisi­tion.

Endorsing such fringe benefits for counci the annual meetings of the Maryla Municipal L<>aguc at Ocean City, arold Kramer, Manager of Sprin ill Lake, prais­ed the hard-\ orking council, whom :he accused of "violating the minimum wage law" in respect to

hours they put In on the city's business as against tho salaries they draw. On that note of good­humored commendation the meet­ing adjourned.

In approving an interim measure authorizing the city mana­ger to permit use· of the municipal swimming pool to individual juvenile "hardship cases," council postponed until their next regu­lar meeting, Monday, July 14, making a policy decision on use of the pool by selected members of the central city poor. Only slight­ly earlier they had authorized use of the pQOl at a 50c daily admis­sion rate for Greenbelt senior citizens age 62 or over. Their other major piece of business was approval of a revised contract for oper­ation of a boating-bicycle concession at the Jake.
