GAH Wellness Clinic applicant Emily Miller, who identified herself as a family nurse practitioner, described the clinic’s aim \"to open up a primary care within Hampstead in that clinic\" and said the clinic will offer services intended to keep patients in the community. The commission reviewed submitted sign images and window designs and found them compliant with town code; a motion to approve the sign application passed on voice vote.

At 1020 South Main Street, applicant Dawn Ray said she and her husband plan to replace siding installed in 1982. \"What we're trying to do is replace, siding that my father-in-law put on the building in 1982,\" Ray said. The commission reviewed color and trim samples and approved the zoning certificate for the exterior renovations by voice vote.

No conditions or permit modifications were recorded in the meeting minutes; both approvals were routine and the commission welcomed the clinic to Hampstead.

\"You have a handout here. Basically, that was put together by Brenda Denny with the county,\" a town staff member said while introducing the water‑resources material and asking commissioners to review it before a detailed presentation next month by county staff. \"Brenna Bridal, who is the expert on this, will be here next month to answer all questions,\" the staff member added.

A county planner then briefed the commission on recent procedural steps. The Carroll County Planning and Zoning Commission voted on June 17 to forward the spring amendment to the Board of County Commissioners; the board will receive an introduction on July 3 that, if advanced, will schedule a public hearing on the amendment. The planner said that, after local approval, amendments go to the Maryland Department of the Environment for final review where applicable.

The county planner described three advisory work groups — economic development, agriculture and housing — formed to provide facts and policy ideas to the county planning commission as it updates the master plan. The planner said the economic‑development work group has been examining where the county could add commercial and industrial land and that a joint meeting of work groups has already identified shared topics for later policy discussion.

Commissioners asked about membership and timeline. The planner said membership includes municipal representatives, county staff liaisons, higher‑education partners, developers, attorneys and citizens chosen either through targeted outreach or a public call for applications. The planner said the work groups are scheduled to meet a total of seven times (including a joint session) with several meetings remaining.

Staff asked commissioners to read the Water Resources Element draft and bring questions to the next meeting when county staff will present more detail.

The change matters, staff said, because the facility no longer meets current stormwater and dam-safety rules; a breach could put nearby homes and people at risk. \"If that would or would somehow breach or it would break, nearby homes and people could be at risk,\" a staff member identified in the meeting as the zoning administrator said.

The commission was told Carroll County’s resource-management staff have led the project for several years and are now close to final approval. The county plans to move the pond’s footprint back from its current location near the corner of Northwoods Trail and Boxwood, create walled containment areas, remove and relocate fish in September and later restock, and plant native vegetation and wildflowers around the new wet area. \"They're taking the fish out live in probably September and transfer them to a new home,\" the zoning administrator said.

Staff emphasized doing nothing was not an option because of potential fines and legal obligations. The commission was also told the drainage area that currently flows into the pond covers roughly 41 acres — including parts of Main Street, Northwoods Trail, Boxwood and the shopping center near the railroad tracks — so the facility handles a large volume of runoff.

Commissioners and residents asked how the state classifies dams and whether there is a “no hazard” category; staff replied that classifications generally range from low hazard to significant hazard and that other Roberts Field structures are categorized as dams despite appearing dry.

Carroll County has secured a grant of about $1,000,000 toward the project, the zoning administrator said, and county staff will host a town hall meeting to present the detailed plan on Tuesday, July 22, at 6:30 p.m. \"Janet and Claire from Carroll County [bureau] will be here, and they're the ones who have, you know, worked this project the whole way so they can answer any questions that you have,\" the zoning administrator said.

The commission did not take any formal vote on the pond at the June 25 meeting. Town staff asked residents to review the informational flyer in the meeting packet and attend the July 22 town hall to hear the county presentation and raise questions about access, fish relocation and final design.

The town and county will continue working toward the county’s final approval; staff said they expect that step soon but did not commit to a specific date.
