Residential Construction Tips

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.

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.
