Last week Partap Verma testified in a state public hearing about planning board reform with some shocking accusations that the previous chair Casey Anderson improperly held inspector general investigations open.
Yesterday (12/19/2022), the Inspector General responded to those public comments with a letter of clarification of testimony denying Verma’s accusations.
Now we bring to you the next episode in this seemingly never-ending saga.
Below is an exclusive look at a letter sent from Partap Verma to Delegate Julie Palakovich Carr and the Montgomery County State Delegation today (12/20/2022).
In the letter there are two specific quotes that Verma allegedly attributed to former Chair Casey Anderson which quite stick out:
Alleged Incident 1 – September 9, 2021
<Former Chair Casey Anderson> further stated “A close-out memo means the matter is closed. I don’t trust <Commissioner> and we never know when we will be able to use this information in the future and closing out a case this way makes no sense. This is payback for what <Commissioner> did to me.”

Alleged Incident 2 – June 14, 2022
The former Chair then stated, “We don’t want this to close so early because the HR investigation is not done and I don’t trust <Councilmember> down the road because he/she won’t support me to be Park’s Director when this is all over. We need to wait for now.”
