History
The origins of the town date to 18 April 1910 when a “Plat of Chevy Chase View” was recorded. Real estate developer Claude Livingstone designed the community the previous year and then conveyed it to Harry E. Smith and John L. Whitmore. Livingstone’s design, except for a few minor street changes, has remained largely the same since. In 1924, a special tax district was formed.
On August 3, 1993, the Montgomery County Council unanimously voted to allow residents to vote on whether to incorporate as a town. Residents voted in favor of incorporation in a referendum held on September 21, 1993. The Montgomery County Council certified the results of the referendum, effective October 28, 1993.
