Board of County Commissioners — 2026-02-24

The Queen Anne’s County Board of County Commissioners met February 24, 2026. They held two brief closed sessions: one (5:00–5:06 p.m.) to discuss Boards and Commissions and one (5:06–5:25 p.m.) to discuss land acquisition; attendees included the County Administrator, County Attorney, and Executive Assistant. The Board unanimously recommended William Walmsley, Richard Fratzke, and Tonya Wright to fill a vacancy on the Property Tax Assessment Appeals Board (term expiring June 30, 2031), approved the amended agenda and prior minutes, and opened a public hearing on Comprehensive Water and Sewerage Plan Amendment 11-26 (the Town of Centreville’s request to allow spray irrigation of treated effluent on leased agricultural land and certain public green spaces rather than requiring fee-simple ownership). The published agenda also listed multiple citizen-sponsored zoning ordinances, Parks & Recreation and finance presentations, Department of Public Works items (including a Grange Hall Road easement and Southern Kent Island Sanitary Project Phase 4 MDE loan resolution), several support letters and grant items for signature, and a budget amendment for Moderately Priced Housing.
