Wheaton group to meet about overcrowding

A group of Wheaton homeowners is having a special meeting this weekend to voice concerns to Montgomery County officials about the growing number of overcrowded houses in their neighborhood and a lack of action from the county.

Kim Persaud, vice president of the Wheaton Regional Park Neighborhood Association, said several small single-family homes were being run like boarding houses for immigrants and housing as many as 14 people, she said.
