BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

Summary of Action Taken

Tuesday, July 20, 2004

Met with Senator Bernie Fowler on initiatives for preservation of the Patuxent River. 

Approved the request of the Drum Point Property Owners Association for a third special tax district in the amount of $192.00 per lot per year; removed the build-out control portion; reduced contingency funds; and granted a credit to Southern Calvert Land Trust for lots it owns in Drum Point.

Reappointed Cynthia Thorne-Carter to the Calvert County Family Network Board of Directors and appoint Louis Oertly to fill a vacancy.

Reappointed Alice Galligan, Joe Hawxhurst, Lynn Kuhn, Kathy Longini and Aimee Whitman to the Employee Recognition Committee.

Reappointed William V. Goodwin to the Social Services Advisory Board.  Directed that remaining vacancies be re-advertised.

Denied the request from the Circle C Oyster Ranching Association that County staff assist the company in obtaining grants for research and development due to the company being a for-profit privately-owned business.

Approved directing staff to proceed in scheduling a public hearing to consider an amendment to the excise tax law regarding adoption of standards for replacement of a dwelling.  Also approved the recommendation of staff that the standards to be used are the same for “habitable” in the County’s Minimum Livability Code.

Approved Certification of Development Options – Francis J. and Monica E. Brazell.

Approved the use of the special projects contract to complete the grading in connection with the Cove Point Swimming Pool project.
