Minimum Wage Reveals Council Rivalries — We mentioned how last week’s vote to approve a minimum wage increase brought to light a good amount of tension between members of the Montgomery County Council. The Washington Post’s Bill Turque provides the play-by-play. [Washington Post]
Boutique Giving Back — Nina McLemore, a recent arrival in Chevy Chase, will donate 15 percent of all sales made until Dec. 15 to the Washington Area Women’s Foundation. On Dec. 7, the women’s clothing store will host a personal styling event with McLemore and a free class from Potomac Pilates. [Nina McLemore]
Fraud Attempts In Chevy Chase — Montgomery County Police last week reported three Town of Chevy Chase residents received “fraud type telephone calls.” In each case, the caller told the resident there were outstanding warrants for them and they had to “send money to take care of the warrants.” The calls were obviously fake. The Town is asking anybody who receives a similar call to report it to Montgomery County Police. [Town of Chevy Chase]
