Carroll County Board of Commissioner President Doug Howard said he's disappointed in the governor's decision to accept PlanMaryland, but not surprised.


In June Gov. Martin O'Malley presented a draft of PlanMaryland at the Maryland Association of Counties (MACO) conference in Ocean City. PlanMaryland is the state's long-range sustainable growth plan.


As previously reported on Patch, Carroll County's commissioners spoke out against PlanMaryland, saying they did not like the idea of handing over local planning issues to the state.

Carroll Citizens Group: 'Carroll County Commissioners Embrace Extreme Political Views'


The following letter was sent to the leadership of other counties in Maryland by a newly formed organization in Carroll County, Citizens United for Carroll County.
