A large non residential structure at a major entrance to Rockville within the West End neighborhood in which numerous churches, city, county & state facilities already exist is not desirable and, in addition is in conflict with the Master Plan of Rockville. The property due to its ownership history and the architectural style of the house justifies the historic designation. Such action will assure the expansion now and in future of the Jehovah's' Kingdom Hall will remain a "good neighbor" in West End.

Maryland Ave is a main corridor to Rockville.
It is important to maintain the residential
balance. Increased traffic congestion for both pedestrians and vehicles is not in the best interest for Rockville.

I have lived in this area for over thirty years and value its quiet residential character. The proposed building just would be out of place in this environment. Please do not allow this change to affect the quality of my life in an adverse way.

I go into Rockville frequently and that intersection is already a nightmare. Plus the older homes in Rockville provide such a quaintness to the area. Great Falls Rd is mostly residential and it should stay the way it is.

Rockville is an inclusive neighborhood of many communities, many faiths, and many uses. But it is a residential community first and foremost. It is essential that this vital western entrance to the city ("Welcome to our neighborhoods") maintain both the residential feel and its vernacular history.

This is a tipping point development. It would destroy the remaining residential character, and will drive future land use of neighboring properties toward institutional uses as well threatening both the neighborhood feel and history of the area.

The safety concerns are also major. The corner is too small and treacherous to accommodate more yet parking and more congregants. It is not the appropriate site for more institutional growth.

As a resident of this community, the parent of a child attending Julius West, and a homeowner on Great Falls Road itself, I strongly object to this proposal on the grounds that it will degrade the residential character of the community, decrease pedestrian safety in the area of the school where my child attends (churches have weekday activities as well), and add to the traffic woes on Great Falls Road. Great Falls already has far too much traffic for a residential neighborhood, period. The weekend respite for homeowners fronting on this busy road -- slight as that respite is -- would be eliminated if hundreds of cars were added to the traffic flow on a regular basis every weekend. Finally, as the owner of a property with historic roots and who selected this neighborhood for its character, I feel that when the City provides individual exceptions to zoning laws, the collective effect, though unintentional, is exactly that which the zoning laws were inacted to guard against: the denigration of the quality of life in and the value of our community. Please preserve these properties for their intended use and deny this application.

This project is unreasonable. It undermines the Gateway to the West End. The proposed aduitorium alone is over 135 seats which will drive spillover parking into the neighborhoods. There simply is no room at Julius West for spillover parking, which is obvious driving by on any Sunday soccer tournement where parking is over 100% capacity. This proposal is just too burdensome for the small site.

My problem with the project is there is not even close to sufficient parking planned for the capacity of the building. To me this is a basic new building approval item. There has to be a plan in place for parking for the people using the building.

I feel that this proposed plan would tremendously negative affect on the already dangerous driving at that four way intersection. I have seen many close calls as I drive through there many times a day! One couple has recently suffered injury as a result of being hit at the crossing.
On weekends there is tremendous traffic for
soccer and other games. There should be NO
building modifications to exacerbate the the already difficult driving situation on Maryland AVE.

Religious institutions are usually a welcome addition to residential neighborhoods because of the vital role they play in the transformation of our souls and spirits. This expansion, however, will primarily transform my residential neighborhood into an institutional one, as the Kingdom Hall continues to expand from its existing 2 residential building lots to their proposed 4. If this is allowed, this non residential use, by it's sheer size, will dominate and redefine the neighborhood, adversely affecting not only those of us who live here, but all of Rockville, since it will loose one of its primary residential gateways.

I'm sick and tired of all of this uncontrolled development with no accompanying changes in appropriate and necessary infrastructure. Rockville is becoming a CITY that is less and less comfortable in which to live. It's time to slow down this development. where I live was once a relaxed neighborhood. Not any more. I'm totally against this development!
