Subdivision Regulations Under Attack in County Plan Battle
The Upper Montgomery County Planning Commission will meet to revise its controversial subdivision rules affecting northern county land. The panel may soften a definition restricting subdividing for agricultural land and consider allowing land transfers to straighten boundaries. Current rules require commission approval for selling parcels under five acres with narrow road frontages and widths, with deeds needing approval.

Plan delays and costs threaten small landowners in Montgomery
The proposal from public agencies requires notarized ownership affidavits and a 350 filing fee, then notices, newspaper ads, and a public hearing. A final plan triggers deposits or bonds for streets sidewalks and trees, a process opponents say would bar small parcels and price out builders, pushing Montgomery toward costly estates. In a separate Burma case, Dr Gordon S Seagrave, the Burma Surgeon, is cleared of treason charges for aiding rebel hill tribesmen in 1949. The court found no criminal intent, despite acknowledging errors in his donations of instruments and medicines.
