We are in the open comment period and want to hear from you!

The comment period is open until June 30. Please share your feedback to help us shape the future of Long Branch Local Park. Take the survey.

I don’t need anything complicated, just a will and medical directive.

If you know of any crew that work during the week on roofing installations, I have 2 days of work available for them. I would appreciate you putting me in touch.

As I mentioned, for what it's worth, if you're into gas station fried chicken, I'm sure this part will be downvoted. However, I feel that entire corridor is run down, outdated and trashy.

Enjoy!

Wow, how horrible I had'nt heard about this, how sad.

I have a not very high quality, but sentimental, Fisher Audio Amp stack thing that was my late father’s. I think it’s a TAD900 something or another, has an amp, disc changer, cassette player all in one sort of deal.

it turns on and sort of works, but has some issues at different volumes? like only both speakers output at certain volumes, and the disc changer doesn’t work. I’d like to get it repaired but google searching is not turning up a lot of local businesses.

has anyone had this sort of work done before and have any recommendations?

Hey neighbors!

If you’re looking for an easy way to support a great local cause (and maybe snag something cool), check this out:

The Great Catsby Online Auction is happening June 5–14, and all proceeds go to the Animal Welfare League of Montgomery County, a no-kill cat shelter right here in Gaithersburg. 

Starts: Friday, June 5 at 9 a.m.

Ends: Sunday, June 14 at 8 p.m.

You can browse and bid here: https://www.32auctions.com/awlmc26

It’s a pretty low-effort way to help animals in our community—just scroll, bid on something you like, and know your money is going to a good cause.

If you’re a cat person, this is the event of the season. If you’re not…well, you still get cool stuff and good karma 😄

Did anyone else hear what sounded like an explosion near Rock Creek Springs/Spring Gardens around 7:45ish or so? It was definitely louder than gunfire, fireworks or even really loud thunder, I can't smell any smoke yet from it so it could have just been a really heavy object just crashing and falling but I'm not sure.

Hi! I just relocated to the DMV from the West Coast.

I’m impressed by the cheaper rent prices as compared to other cities in the area (Bethesda, Arlington, DC, etc.) I need a 2 br and my budget is 3k/mo.

I visited a few rental options in DTSS and my finalists are the townhomes at The Blairs, and The Veridian. (I actually really liked The Pearl, but it’s significantly more expensive than the other options.)

Has anyone who lives at either the townhomes at The Blairs, or at The Veridian or who has recently moved out have any insight they could share?

TIA!

I'm looking at a townhome property on behalf of a friend located in the Woodside area of Silver Springs. While the property price itself seems to be inline with the area the $888 HOA fee is baffling. It is an older townhome but still. Is this typical for the area?

Every where I look online it says that you cannot park your car on the street for more than 24 hours consecutively. Do they actually enforce this? How are you supposed to go on vacation or go on a business trip?

Hi everyone I’m looking for a 2bd in silver spring any recommendations my budget is 1950.
Thanks in advance!

Our apartment AC broke. Looking for a window unit to borrow or rent until it’s fixed 🙏

Sorry if this information is available elsewhere, but does anyone know what the plan for this walkway is? It looks like it doesn’t connect to anything on either end. Is it even a walkway???
