White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan

White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan The Master Plan seeks to leverage White Oak’s assets so the area may evolve into a community that offers more opportunities to live, work and play.

The White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan seeks to leverage White Oak’s assets and establish the foundation upon which the area may evolve into a community that offers more opportunities to live, work and play. One of this area’s strongest points is the consolidated headquarters of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at the White Oak Federal Research Center (FRC). FDA brings thousands of employ

ees and visitors to its state-of-the art campus, serving as a draw to corporations that offer high-quality employment in fields such as health care, pharmaceuticals, life sciences and advanced technology. The Plan also envisions White Oak’s commercial centers evolving from conventional, auto-dependent suburban shopping retail centers, business parks and light industrial areas into vibrant, mixed-use, transit-served nodes. Redevelopment must enhance the entire area’s quality of life, appearance, walkability, and sense of place. This Plan provides a blueprint to connect White Oak’s centers to each other and the broader region through a transit system that includes Bus Rapid Transit as an integral component.

Bravo to Rockville Councilmember Adam Van Grack for sharing this helpful information for our Federal Workers.

The federal government shutdown has far reaching, devastating effects on our community. I am deeply saddened and concerned about all of our community members who are being adversely affected by the federal government shutdown and who are losing their federal government jobs. While I do not have a vote regarding whether the shutdown continues or jobs are reinstated, I wanted to provide a number of helpful resources which I have collected this morning to help. Feel free to pass this information along to others.
