ZONE CHANGES ASKED IN PRINCE GEORGES County Commissioners to Hear Two Applications at Date to Be Determined. By a Stafl Correspondent of The Star. UPPER MARLBORO, Md., April 4— Two requests for zoning changes in Prince Georges County have been re- ceived by the county commissioners and will be given public hearing at a date to be determined later. One of them, a request of Robert S. McCready, for reclassification of & strip. of land on Ardwick road near Ardwick Station, from residential to commercial has been disapproved by the Maryland- National « Capital Park and Planning ‘Commission. In explaining this action, Irvin Ow-! #ngs, chairman, declared that the ap- | plicant_desires to zone a long strip of | more than 600 feet for commercial purposes in a sparsely settled section Wwere there seems to be little if any de- mand for business locations. However, Chairman Owings adds, if McCready 'actually wishes to construct one or two business properties, the park commission would favorably recommend at this time the rezoning of the amount of land involved. An application of Max Hoffman for reclassification of lot 27, block 27, ¢Brentwood, from residenial to commer- cial, was approved by the commission.
