Westfield malls implement restrictions on teen autonomy

For many WCHS students, the Westfield Montgomery Mall has served as a place to shop, eat and spend time with friends. However, on Sept. 28, the Westfield Corporation implemented a new policy limiting teens after 3 PM at Westfield Montgomery and Westfield Wheaton. While the policy aims to increase the safety for shoppers, it has also raised questions about teen independence and its potential impacts on mall businesses. The official mall policy states that minors are barred from entering the mall after 3 PM unless they are with an adult. Supervising adults may also be asked to provide a valid form of identification, and can only accompany 4 minors at a time.

Maryland "is facing an energy crisis," utility Pepco says

"Maryland is facing an energy crisis," electric utility Pepco warned in a message to customers Thursday. "When demand for electricity is high and supply is limited, it puts pressure on the system and can increase costs," the message said, advising that customers "may see changes in your energy bill" as the region enters the winter months. The utility again has attempted to explain that many of the surging costs are not its responsibility, such as the taxes and fees imposed by Montgomery County and Maryland state governments. It specifically mentioned the EmPOWER Maryland fee that the Maryland legislature recently hiked again. Politicians hope that you will think Pepco is charging you these fees, which is part of the impetus for the utility to inform customers to the contrary.
