Montgomery Village readers should watch for clearer details on eligibility and how to apply. 
• Harmful algae bloom in reservoir near Patuxent River may cause health concerns (wusa9.com) — A harmful algae bloom in Triadelphia Reservoir has triggered a month-long water contact health advisory that affects Montgomery County residents, including those in and around Montgomery Village.

Howard Duckett Reservoir is also under advisory.
