About the Board

WUDAC - New Members Orientation Handbook

The Wheaton Urban District Advisory Committee (WUDAC) consists of 11 members appointed by the County Executive and confirmed by the County Council to provide advice on all matters affecting the Wheaton Urban District area (downtown). Members represent businesses, the Chamber of Commerce, residents, and the Mid-County Citizens Advisory Board (MCCAB).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Wheaton Urban District is funded by special taxes to support the work of the Committee. It provides special services to the Central Business District to ensure that downtown Wheaton is maintained in a clean, safe and attractive manner to promote a vibrant social and business environment and long-term economic viability and vitality. These services include security, streetscape maintenance, tree maintenance, sidewalk repairs, marketing, and events.

Clean and Safe Team

Take a walk through downtown Wheaton and you will see a variety of "special touches" provided by our dedicated team of Urban District staff. The Clean and Safe teams (recognizable by their red shirts) provide landscaping, maintenance and concierge services to the businesses and patrons in the Urban District. Their goal is to make Wheaton a better place to live, visit, and do business by improving the appearance of the downtown and fostering a safe and inviting environment.

Clean and Safe Team Members are present in the downtown area Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m., Saturday 1:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., and Sunday 10:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.  The Safe team works hand-in-hand with Montgomery County Police to monitor the area and provide assistance within the Urban District.  To contact a safe team member for an escort during operational hours, call: 240-777-8120.  Administrative responsibility for the budget and operations of the Urban District are under the direction of Luisa Montero, Director, Mid-County Regional Services Office.  For more information about WUDAC, please contact 240-777-8101.
