Court hearing scheduled in Moses African Cemetery sale dispute


A court hearing has been scheduled in the dispute over the proposed sale of Westwood Tower and the Moses African Cemetery in Bethesda. The Bethesda African Cemetery Coalition has sued the Montgomery County Housing Opportunities Commission, alleging the HOC failed to notify the descendants of those buried in the cemetery before reaching a sale agreement with Bethesda-based Charger Ventures.

Montgomery County Circuit Court Judge Karla Smith will consider whether to grant a preliminary injunction stopping the sale at a hearing Monday, September 27, 2021 at 9:30 AM in Courtroom 4H, at 50 Maryland Avenue in Rockville.

I am surprised at that.
