Municipal Program Open Space Projects Approved
Westminster, MD, According to a Carroll County press release
on Thursday, August 1, 2019:
Today, during Open Session, the Carroll County Board of
Commissioners (BOC) approved the recommendations of the local chapter of the
Maryland Municipal League (MML) to provide funding for four (4) FY2020 municipal
Program Open Space (POS) projects.
Each year, the county allocates 25% of Program Open Space
funds to municipalities, four of the eight municipalities each year, rotating
yearly. The local chapter of the MML recommends spending for projects, the
Department of Recreation and Parks reviews the projects and determines its
support before presenting the projects to the BOC for approval.
This year, the four projects approved are: a new park in New
Windsor; playground improvements at Taneytown High School Park; parking lot
enhancements at the Union Bridge Community Center; and phase I construction of
Wakefield Valley Park in Westminster. Each project will receive $81,128 in POS
funds.
Commissioner Ed Rothstein, District 5, noted, “This
highlights another great partnership between the county and its
municipalities.”
Now approved, these municipal projects will be included in
Carroll County’s FY2020 Project Open Space Annual Program with other county POS
park projects.
Open session is available for viewing on the county meeting
portal and the county YouTube channel. In addition, all meetings will be
replayed on Comcast Channel 24.
