MCA has learned that The McLean School, which is currently housed in a closed Montgomery County school in Potomac, has been in negotiations with the American College of Cardiology to purchase the College’s property to use as a high school for 300 students. Under the school’s proposal, the existing building would be retained, but most of the trees on the property would be removed for the construction of soccer fields, and reforestation would be done closer to Old Georgetown Road.
At the present time, no traffic plan exists for the school’s desired use of the property, and the school has not committed to attending the November MCA meeting to present its plans more formally. The ACC still intends to proceed to present its residential development plans to the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission but has not rejected the school’s offer. MCA will discuss both of these proposed uses at the November meeting to see if there is a preference for one over the other.

It’s the time of year when things begin to get a bit hectic with plans for the upcoming holiday season. So, please do not forget that we will have an MCA membership meeting in November. It will be a week later (November 28th) than our normal meeting because of the Thanksgiving holiday.

In July, the preliminary draft plans designed by the American College of Cardiology were presented to the Development Review Committee of the Park & Planning Commission. The Committee is comprised of Planning staff members and representatives from other Montgomery County departments. The draft plan was severely criticized in several areas including lack of parking, lack of emergency vehicle access, storm water management, and site forestation.
Most importantly for Maplewood, the Committee recommended that Camberley Avenue be cut through the property to Alta Visa Road or made into a cul-de-sac on the property. The College is revising its plans to take into consideration the concerns of the Committee and hopes to present the revised plans to Park & Planning in October. Cathy Gates, the College’s facilities manager, will present the revisions at September MCA meeting.

Citing the need for a larger and more modern facility, the American College of Cardiology (ACC) has announced they are relocating their headquarters at 9111 Old Georgetown Road to a new location in Washington DC.
The decision to move from the current Heart House campus in Bethesda, Maryland, to downtown Washington was the result of considerable research and analysis involving many members aided by our outstanding staff. The central themes underlying this decision included the need for a larger and better-configured facility to respond to our growth in membership and our increased scope of activity. Most important, this relocation reflects the need for a strong presence in Washington to interact with legislative and regulatory leaders.
When it located there in the 1970s, the ACC was among the first of many associations that moved to Bethesda in the past 30 years. There is no definite word yet on the future disposition of the Heart House campus, or whether the MCA will be permitted to continue holding its general membership meetings there.
