The Town Manager reported that a scheduled meeting for late May regarding the Interim Capital Crescent Trail had been moved to a later date. She will report back once a new meeting date has been set.

The Manager noted planning is under way for the July 4th event. The Section has contracted with Rocklands Barbeque this year for food. A notice will be sent out to residents in the next few weeks.

There was a discussion regarding traffic on East West Highway and Connecticut Avenue.

The Manager will also work in conjunction with Section Building Administrator, Joe Toomey, to develop an infrastructure report that the Council can use to develop a strategic plan for long-term road, sidewalk, curb, and gutter work.

The Manager also plans to start work on a document retention plan for Section 5 that will create an approved document archiving process with the State of Maryland.
