[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I increasingly feel that county-level governance is at odds with local preferences in Bethesda, or at least my pocket of it. The Westbard project is a good example. I'm sure it's not super realistic, but what would it take for Bethesda to secede from the county and exist as an independent municipality? Any thoughts on the pros and cons? [/quote] It would be like the City of Falls Church. Eventually, the tax base would not be able to cover costs, and you would have to do objects like Westbard. Falls Church has rolled out the red carpet for developers to beef up,its tax base. [/quote]
