The December 7 Greenbelt City Council worksession was scheduled to consider the Detailed Site Plan (DSP) for Phase III of the South Core of Greenbelt Station and a new concept plan. However, issues relating to the DSP were satisfactorily resolved, leaving the council to concentrate on the concept plan. The mood was at times rather tense at the city council’s November 16 worksession with representatives of the Woodlawn Development Group when it first reviewed the DSP. As reported in the November 26 issue of this paper, planning department staff had prepared a 23-page memorandum detailing a variety of concerns, as well as a differNew Concept for Phase III of South Core Presented for Council Review by Kathleen Gallagher ence of opinion between city and county staff regarding the criteria by which the plan should be evaluated. City staff had recommended to council that the DSP not be approved. In this case the city’s approval is required, not simply advisory, since that condition was negotiated as part of the city’s Development Agreement with the developers.
