Election Day voting moved from Ritchie Coliseum to City Hall

Another knock-on effect of that long Purple Line delay.

This is for Nov. 5 only. It does not affect early voting (which ends Oct 31).

If you check your polling location it should be updated https://voterservices.elections.maryland.gov/PollingPlaceSearch

Northwest Chinese wins College Park’s Business of the Year award

Northwest Chinese, a local restaurant specializing in authentic Chinese cuisine, was named College Park’s 2024 Business of the Year at Tuesday’s city council meeting.

Serving dishes from the Shanxi province in China, Northwest Chinese is well-known for its handmade noodle dishes and unique flavors, city documents stated.

The restaurant, located on Route 1, was recognized for its community involvement, commitment to sustainability and “notoriety in the local food scene,” according to a city news release.

Northwest Chinese opened in 2015 after owner Hua Wang moved to the city and saw a lack of traditional Chinese food in the area, Xue Ling, the restaurant’s brand manager, told The Diamondback.

Anyone missing a cat in North College Park?

A cat has taken up residence under my neighbor's shed. Skittish, but I got it to come out today. Very vocal, seemed hungry. Tried to get it some food. Rubbed up against the fence and let me pet it but it wouldn't come over and I couldn't reach to put down the food and it wouldn't come over to my side of the fence.... Gray, really pretty. Thought I would ask before I try to call someone.

Discounted Dental Cleanings at local college

Hi y'all, I am a dental hygiene student at Fortis in Landover, MD. As part of the program we need to see patients in our clinic for cleanings in order to graduate.

This is a great opportunity for individuals that may or may not have insurance. It may also be a great opportunity to received treatment at an extremely discounted rate. This is a teaching school and with thorough assessment and evaluation possibly some of the best and most educational treatment you could receive.

The $40 fee includes: Oral cancer screening, Risk assessments, Comprehensive exam, X-rays Dental, hygiene cleaning, Sealants (on eligible teeth) and Fluoride treatment.

We also see children (no younger than 6 years old) and veterans for $20

PLEASE NOTE

This is a learning institution so appointment times are 3-4 hours each and depending on treatment, may take 1-4 visits to complete. The fee will cover all visits as long as appointments are kept and treatment is completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I'd be happy to help! Thank you :)

Stop Sign Runners in College Park (lots of video footage)

Some of these stop signs have an over 90% violation rate! The most egregious is Rhode Island Ave & Lakeland Rd near Paintbranch Elementary and the trolly trail. Edgewood and 52nd Ave (probably from school pickup traffic) has 756 violations per day! Some of these clips are wild.

What time does the parking lot at the College Park metro fill up? What about the lot at Greenbelt?

If I get to either of those lots by 8:30, you think I’ll be able to find a spot?

Zoning questions

I want to build a front porch/patio on my house. I've sourced zoning that says I have to remain 25' from the "right of way." I assume that means the sidewalk. However I can walk around my block and see dozens of houses with such construction much closer to the road that what my 25' would give me (some of these "porches" are even fully enclosed and essentially building extensions). How? What am I missing?
