Maryland law and the Historic District Commission's Rules of Procedure regarding ex parte (extra-record) communications require all discussion, review, and consideration of certain matters take place only during the Commission's consideration of the item at a scheduled meeting. Telephone calls and meetings with Commission members in advance of the meeting are not permitted. Written communication will be directed to appropriate staff members for response and included in briefing materials for all members of the Commission.

To assure a timely hearing for the full agenda, at the discretion of the Chair, speakers are asked to limit their testimony to the following: 5 minutes for the Applicant; 3 minutes for individuals, and 5 minutes for representatives of groups.

The qualifications of the members of the Historic District Commission and staff are available for inspection at City Hall during normal business hours.

When a Consent Agenda is used, it is considered preliminary and does not preclude any person the right to request that a public hearing be held and/or to present testimony concerning any application on the evening of the advertised HDC meeting.

Commission meetings are televised live on the Rockville Channel [TRC 11], starting at 7:30 p.m. The meetings are then re-televised during the month on Sundays (8:30 am), Mondays (12 midnight), Wednesdays (1 pm), 3rd and 4th Thursdays (8 pm), and Thursdays (12 midnight).
