County finance and project staff told commissioners the procurement drew broad interest through the eMaryland Marketplace; after an initial pool of more than 100 interested parties the process produced nine responsive proposals that were winnowed to one recommended firm based on technical rating and cost. The contracting officer recommended Kimball Architecture, which had the highest technical rating and a fee within the project budget.

\"That firm had had the highest technical rating, the lowest cost, and the cost was within the amount budgeted for A and E Services,\" said the county finance officer during the presentation.

The board approved a budget amendment to realign state and county revenue sources for Phase 2 and reestablished the Phase 2 project in FY2010. The contracting officer was authorized to proceed with contract award to Kimball Architecture for A&E services totaling $1,520,890 (phase 1: $1,220,890; phase 2: $300,000) after obtaining approval from the Maryland Department of General Services.

Design rationale: Sheriff Cameron and jail project staff urged an integrated design approach for phases 1 and 2 to ensure systems, security features and shared spaces work together, and to position the county more competitively for state construction funding. Project managers said phase 2 includes key functions — kitchen, booking/inmate processing, medical ward/infirmary, work‑release and administrative space — and that coordinated design reduces the risk of incompatible specifications or duplicated work.

Minority participation: The selected proposal included about 12.2% MBE/WBE participation; the state goal was cited at 25% as a target.

Vote and next steps: Commissioner Raley moved approval; the motion was seconded and carried. The county will submit the recommendation to the State of Maryland Department of General Services for review and then proceed to execute the contract and corresponding financial documents if the state approves the selection. County staff indicated construction phase services were included in the firm’s fee and that phase 1 construction is expected to begin in FY2011.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","11/10/2009 Commissioners of St. Mary's County","oneSentenceSummary","Saint Mary's County commissioners approved Kimball Architecture for design services for phases 1 and 2 of a planned adult detention center and authorized a budget realignment and the contracting officer to proceed pending state approval.","taxTitle","St. Mary's County, Maryland","taxId",51086,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6373586,"County approves purchase of 'Roses 2' property on Great Mills Road to extend FDR Boulevard, with one commissioner opposed and one abstention",1143,3269000,4412000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2145774-99630a72ed1ce32df0957cdb16f504b8&start=3269&end=4412","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2145774-99630a72ed1ce32df0957cdb16f504b8/thumbnail_3269000.jpg","/articles/6373586/St-Marys-County/Maryland/County-approves-purchase-of-Roses-2-property-on-Great-Mills-Road-to-extend-FDR-Boulevard-with-one-commissioner-opposed-and-one-abstention","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6373586-db9660c272c8908a0ab9a03f0f38b8e1/orig.mp4?Expires=1776763450&Signature=KYJaHQ1klqO14Chqx3vuUSqxoP9H2PcCTZYwx8~1bpzx2ykPhYVvblJv6N90Neu4qv1IZur6xAwxyTFqFSsM-kM~GzAshGiyGe~gpaq1lFW4eQFtTLb~BzAg8eSnWZlKYfkNqgBOBIPSDKrX2QWH7nj1Z4-QYmymL6HQv1p8FW~258xgbItq2Jc1huFfdSIDu3-Okz7tJyskKjXHZrNNZclUW1HuqXi2YqyKVaO-aKDF9RPEFb8zBNseq2jvxMPXEXuf4xWEyRFlceY71lCtFPkG78Kde2nXehEIz-M5db1AbP7gMQ866puhYNIYBT3655zx9Z8Thr1bCmCOBKrVKg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Saint Mary's County commissioners approved the acquisition of a parcel on Great Mills Road known locally as \"Roses 2\" (21708 Great Mills Road) for $450,000 at their Nov. 10, 2009 meeting, authorizing the county to take settlement steps and to demolish the existing structure after closing.

The property purchase is intended to secure right‑of‑way for a long‑planned extension of FDR Boulevard through Lexington Park and to provide an additional access route for the nearby fire station, rescue squad, library and elementary school. Liz Pasarelli, the county's real property manager, told commissioners the county has pursued the parcel since the early 2000s and said an appraisal connected to a State Highway Administration streetscape project valued the property at roughly $502,472. \"It is important to acquire this property, not only for FDR Boulevard, but to provide, an additional access to the fire department,\" Pasarelli said.

Discussion and vote: Commissioners debated timing and fiscal prudence but several said the parcel's location and long history of being set aside for a roadway made the purchase appropriate. Commissioner Railey moved approval, seconded by Commissioner Mattingly. The motion passed with the board reporting \"Ayes 3, Nay 1, Abstain 1.\" The county directed the Department of Public Works and Transportation to proceed with demolition of the existing building as soon as practicable after settlement.

Context and planning: County staff said the right‑of‑way and the center line of the planned extension would run through the existing building, making partial acquisition impractical. The parcel is included in the county's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and staff said acquisition funds are available in the programmed budget. Commissioners noted the purchase price is below the recent appraisal and several speakers emphasized the project's role in relieving congestion and supporting planned development in Lexington Park.

Public process: The acquisition followed a sequence of offers and estate settlement steps: an offer sent Aug. 31, 2009, acceptance on Sept. 21, and fully executed contract returned around Oct. 15. The county advertised notice in the Enterprise on Oct. 21 that the purchase would be considered at the Nov. 10 meeting; the acquisition was carried out pursuant to Article 24, Section 4‑210(e) of the Annotated Code of Maryland, as cited in staff materials.

What happens next: Settlement documents will be executed by the commissioner president, county staff said, and demolition and site work will follow. County officials said the acquisition is meant to preserve long‑planned roadway connectivity and to avoid a future scenario in which a private purchaser would develop the site in a way that would block the corridor.

Evidence: Real property manager Liz Pasarelli presented the acquisition history and appraisal figures; the purchase motion was by Commissioner Railey, seconded by Commissioner Mattingly; the vote was recorded by the clerk during the Nov. 10 meeting.","Saint Mary's County authorized purchase of 21708 Great Mills Road (the 'Roses 2' / Turner property) for $450,000 to allow extension of FDR Boulevard, provide emergency access and support Lexington Park redevelopment.

The Navy formally approved the study in September 2009 after a multi‑year effort that began in 2007 and incorporated flight‑operation and aircraft‑mix changes, including data related to the F‑35 and increased unmanned aircraft activity. \"The purpose this morning is to explain the new revised ACUS study, that the Navy has approved in September of this year,\" said Captain Andy Maasico, who led the Navy presentation.

Why it matters: county and Navy officials said the revised noise and safety data will guide local planning, zoning and construction decisions near the base. The study reports that day‑night average sound level (DNL) contours have changed since a 1979 study and that the most extreme noise contours (75 dB DNL and above) remain within base property. Captain Maasico explained the DNL metric and that it adds a 10‑decibel penalty for operations between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., and noted that \"all of the contours 75 dB or greater are within the physical confines of the installation.\"

The ACUS study used the Navy's NoiseMap 7.2 model to project 5‑year noise impacts, producing DNL contours at 5‑decibel increments. The presentation compared 1979 and 2009 contours and showed increases in the 60–65 dB and 65–70 dB ranges in parts of Lexington Park and over Solomons Island in neighboring Calvert County. \"You will note... we do see increases in all of the noise zones,\" Maasico said, adding the changes were driven by shifts in aircraft types and operations.

The Navy also described accident potential zones (APZs). The presentation noted APZs are based on historical accident statistics and are concentrated along runway centerlines. \"APZs do not reflect the probability of an accident,\" Maasico said, and the county was told there was no expansion of APZs off base compared with the 1979 map; minor increases were internal to Navy property or extended over water.

County planning staff and commissioners asked how the study would be used locally. Derek Berlage of the county's Land Use and Growth Management office said the noise contour data could be used to consider a noise‑attenuation zone that would not change permitted land uses but could require construction techniques to reduce indoor noise. \"That data unfortunately came out too late for the planning commission to consider it, but it still may be brought to your table,\" Berlage said.

Commissioners and presenters emphasized the ongoing partnership. Commissioner President Russell praised Navy cooperation, and county officials said the study would be useful for the county's comprehensive plan and zoning work. The Navy noted its outreach and recent efforts on noise abatement procedures, such as briefing aircrews on flight tracks and weekend operation limits. The Navy also said it maintains a noise complaint hotline and averages roughly 80–90 complaints a year nationwide for the installation; the Navy indicated it investigates complaints and correlates them with flight‑track data.

Next steps: planners said they will consider whether to adopt a local noise‑attenuation policy and will use the study in comprehensive planning and the rezoning process. County and Navy officials said they will continue semiannual meetings to address encroachment, land use and related issues.

Evidence: presentation material and remarks from Capt. Andy Maasico, Leroy Mattingly (ACUS manager), Rick Owen (Naval Facilities), and county planning staff were given to the commissioners during the Nov. 10 meeting and are on file with the county.","Naval Air Station Patuxent River presented a revised Air Installation Compatible Use Zones (ACUS) study approved by the Navy in September 2009.
