Leggett to Deliver 'State of the County' in Silver Spring

The County Executive is expected to reflect on the county's accomplishments, challenges and opportunities in the speech Wednesday night.

Whether or not you gleaned a clear sense of where the nation is headed from President Barack Obama's State of the Union last week, County Executive Isiah Leggett is offering a chance to get up to speed on the road ahead for Montgomery County at his State of the County address this evening. 

All are invited to the Silver Spring Civic Building at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 20 for Leggett's speech, which will "reflect on the county's accomplishments and on challenges and opportunities ahead in the coming year and beyond," according to a statement from the executive's office.           

If you won't be in Silver Spring tonight, the address will be broadcast live to County Cable Montgomery, channel 6 for Comcast and RCN customers and channel 30 for Verizon customers. A live video stream will be fed to www.montgomerycountymd.gov/ccm. In previous years, the text of the address has been made available online.
