Developers shouldn't be required to make roadway improvements that were based on a mistake, according to Greenbelt City Council.
Greenbelt Station developers should not be forced to make road improvements based on a traffic evaluation error, according Greenbelt City Council in a 6-1 vote. The matter is up for a vote before Prince George’s County authorities on Thursday afternoon. Council supported changes that would remove the need for Greenbelt Station project developers to make road improvements at Md. 193 at 62nd Street in Greenbelt and to Md. 193 at Rhode Island Avenue in College Park.

BARC, Greenbelt Metro's North Core, and Metro's South Core have all been recommended as locations for a new FBI headquarters—and its thousands of jobs.
Councilmember Rodney Roberts told Greenbelt City Council last Tuesday that Prince George's County was trying to lure the F.B.I. into building its headquarters on the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center (BARC) grounds. Now that the idea is out in the open, what do you think about it? Is it a good idea or is there another Greenbelt or county location that you think would be more fitting? Roberts made it clear to council that he isn't keen on BARC's property being whittled down. But in an interview after the meeting, Roberts said he would love to see the FBI— along with its some 10,000 jobs— take up shop in the South Core of the Greenbelt Metro Station.
