When Montgomery County bought a 1.3 acre property in the community of Hillmead, its goal was to demolish the existing house and create a community park. Now community activists are mobilizing against a new proposal to renovate the structure and provide housing for a homeless family. We look at the two proposals, and how one local community is dealing with the competing priorities of greenspace and affordable housing.
