Carroll Creek project clears planning board despite parking concerns
Gaithersburg developer Marc Silverman faces a Frederick audience as his 11 million six story Carroll Creek building advances with planning commission input. Zoning administrator Catherine Parks says the plan meets standards and is clean. Parking, with an estimated 250 spaces, draws questions from Alderman Donna Kuzemchak and Alan Imhoff, while city engineers note CIP funds exist for a parking deck. Silverman touts tenant demand and potential backing from a national parking firm ready to build with control over operations and rates. The Greater Frederick Development Corp. is conducting a downtown parking study.
