Within the Maryland-Washington Metropolitan District, the Com-

park system with recreational facilities, expense of which is paid from
a separate park tax levied within the District. A recreational pro-
gram has been authorized in the parks and other public places, revenue
for which may be obtained from a special recreation tax or county
grants. The Commission is authorized to cooperate and negotiate
with Federal agencies for financial assistance under the terms of the
Capper-Cramton Act of the 71st Congress, and with other agencies
in the park development program.

suburban, rural, and regional planning. Plans and specifications for
the construction of public works improvements and facilities are

and house renumbering, and the Commission has advisory zoning pow-
ers. The zoning ordinances and amendments, however, are enacted by
the respective Board of County Commissioners sitting as a Dis-
trict Council for that portion of the District within each County.
The Commission recommends land use or zoning ordinance build-
ing regulations and similar ordinance subject matters to the respective
District Councils. The Building Inspector's departments of both
counties function under the jurisdiction of this Commission. The

istrative tax levied within the District.
