234 A.2d 140

MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF GREENBELT, ET AL. v. BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, ET AL.

Court of Appeals of Maryland.

Decided October 18, 1967.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph A. DePaul, with whom were Ronald A. Willoner and Albert Ginsberg on the brief, for Mayor and City Council of Greenbelt, et al., part of appellants; William J. Avrutis, with whom were Donald B.W. Messenger and James F. Vance on the brief, for First National Realty Corporation, another appellant.

James J. Lombardi, with whom were Lionell M. Lockhart, Harry L. Durity, Joseph S. Casula and Martin Hertz on the brief, for Board of County Commissioners, part of appellees; Carlyle J. Lancaster, with whom were Welsh & Lombardi on the brief, for Milton E. Selig, other appellee.

The cause was argued before HAMMOND, C.J., and HORNEY, OPPENHEIMER and McWILLIAMS, JJ., and CLAPP, J., Associate Judge of the Sixth Judicial Circuit, specially assigned.


McWILLIAMS, J., delivered the opinion of the Court.

Appellants contend, among other things, that this case is controlled by Woodlawn Area Citizens' Association v. Board of County Commissioners, 241 Md. 187, 216 A.2d 149 (1966). Our conclusion that Woodlawn is not controlling makes our consideration of the other questions presented unnecessary. We shall state only the relevant facts.
