The Village of Chevy Chase Section 5

Living in Bethesda

Established in 1922, Section 5 of the Village of Chevy Chase became an incorporated municipality on June 25, 1982. Section 5 is a small, quiet community of 227 houses and one restaurant. It is a town known for its tree-lined streets, porches, and friendly neighborhood atmosphere.

The section is administered by an elected five-member Town Council, members of which are elected for two (2) year terms of office. Elections take place in the spring at our annual meeting. There is one paid part-time employee, the Town Manager, who acts as a liaison between the Council and residents.
