*RP Council Approves Development Zone, Go Green Initiative*

*RPBA to Hold Special Meeting Wednesday For Town to Unveil Fees-Waived
Programs*



*Riverdale Park, MD (May 8, 2018)*– It was a bright and sunny night Monday
when the Town Council voted unanimously to approve two measures aimed at
encouraging businesses and town property owners – including homeowners – to
install solar panels by reducing all Town fees, along with another
ordinance that establishes a redevelopment zone initiative incentive
program.



The two programs were originally introduced at the April 2 Town Legislative
meeting and are considered the core components of Riverdale Park’s new
economic development program touted as the *Come Grow With Us! *campaign.



Development Services Director *Kevin Simpson*will be the featured
speaker *Wednesday,
May 9 *at the monthly meeting of the Riverdale Park Business Association
where he will discuss the details of the two new measures. Simpson will
also provide an update on the $30,000 grant programs launched earlier this
year by the Town that are aimed at small businesses and are designed to
spark growth in under-developed portions of the Town. The Wednesday
meeting, which begins at 5:30 pm at Town Hall, is open to the public this
month because the solar ordinance waives fees to anyone in the community
seeking solar panel installation. *RPBA encourages your participation and
involvement in this important session aimed at sparking economic growth in
Riverdale Park.  *



*The basics: *



*Riverdale Park Business Association *Monthly Meeting, *Wednesday, May 9,
5:30 at Town Hall.*

They start at 5:30 pm and are held at Town Hall unless otherwise
specified.  *
