Congratulations Casey Anderson
I am very happy to congratulate Casey Anderson, a Citizens League Board member, on being sworn in as the newest member of the Montgomery County Planning Board. This is somewhat bittersweet, as we also must bid Casey farewell as a member of our Board, but Casey is now in a better position to implement the positive change the League tries to promote throughout the County.
I met Casey during my work on the White Flint Sector Plan a number of years ago. I immediately saw Casey as the type of committed, smart advocate we need in this County for progressive, sustainable land use policy. Not afraid to voice his opinion, Casey became invaluable to the ‘White Flint Movement’ and quickly became known as our go-to guy on cyclist issues. Beyond that though he had a great ability to reach out to many sides, and worked with people on all sides of the issue. This is a rare talent.
Many land use issues are currently swirling around the County. Although White Flint has now entered the implementation phase, we are still wrestling with the CR Zone, a rewrite of our zoning code, sector plans along the Purple Line, and creation of great places within the County that will attract the next generation of professionals. Casey will be a great asset to not only the Planning Board in these areas, but all citizens of this County.
