Council halts Rockville Dial-A-Ride plan amid fiscal crisis
The Montgomery County Council postponed the Dial-A-Ride bus project in Rockville due to the county's worst financial situation. The deferral extends to at least June 1976, cutting almost $347,000 from the Fiscal 1976 budget. County Executive Gleason had sought nine months of funding and later February start dates.

Federal officials found Montgomery County schools in compliance with desegregation guidelines and the county will avoid a forced integration plan. County Councilmember Neal Potter urged $1.5 million in further budget cuts to the school system.
