Procurement staff, working with the Bureau of Engineering, recommended awarding the paving contract (Paving 1) to M.T. Laney Company, Inc. The work covers approximately 12 miles across 23 county roadways; staff said the amount is within the FY26 adopted budget. The board moved and seconded the award and approved it by voice vote.

The board also approved a feasibility study contract for Circuit Courtroom No. 6 renovation with Crabtree Rorbaugh & Associates for $73,600; staff said the study will deliver three design concepts with estimates and a 16'week schedule. Commissioners asked about the schedule and staff confirmed the 16'week timeframe.

A utility installation upgrade for the new State's Attorney building was approved ($40,135) and, separately, the board approved a contract for a new waterline at the Public Safety Training Center ($410,456.66). Staff explained that designers for phase 2 of the training center identified the undersized 6'inch main and 4'inch meter; the county contracted the work separately to avoid delaying the phase 2 design.

The board also renewed its yearly contract/membership with the Northeast Maryland Waste Disposal Authority for $189,140.47; staff noted the county has been a member since the early 1990s. Finally, the board adopted resolutions updating authorized banking signers and depository authorities to reflect personnel changes.

All procurement approvals were reported as within the FY26 approved budget and were approved by voice vote with no recorded roll'call shown in the transcript.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of County Commissioners Open Session July 17, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Carroll County commissioners on Thursday approved multiple procurement actions, including a $4,151,560.60 contract to M.T.

County development staff recounted the property's history and said earlier off'conveyances and an unintended administrative error resulted in prior lots being processed as minors. Staff described a typical fee difference between a minor subdivision and a major subdivision and said the applicant's current requested lot would be subject to the higher major'subdivision review fee. Staff reported they had already reduced several fee components where possible; the owner asked the board to further lower the fee to the minor rate ($3,636.90), which the owner said applied to the prior lot.

Board discussion focused on whether granting the reduction would shift review costs to taxpayers and would set an undesirable precedent. County counsel explained that, if the board made an exception, it would need to articulate why it granted relief in this case but not in others. After more discussion, a commissioner moved that the review fees not be reduced for the Dublin Manor subdivision; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote.

County staff emphasized that the distinction between children's lots (a provision of agricultural preservation easements) and subdivision review remains: children's lots are an agricultural preservation allowance but still must be processed through the county's subdivision review system and be counted toward the minor/major threshold when multiple lots are created. Staff said any change to treat all children's lots as minors would require a code change or a clear policy exception going forward.

The board did not adopt a broader code change during the meeting. The owner said he would pursue other avenues, including discussion with the agricultural preservation advisory board which had recommended considering relief.","After an extended hearing, the board denied a request by the owner of the Dublin Manor property to further reduce county review fees for proposed children's lots. Staff explained a prior processing error and said the county had already reduced calculated fees; commissioners cited precedent and taxpayer burden in opposing further reductions.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6745640,"Carroll County adopts 2025 Radiological Ingestion Exposure Pathway Plan",106,2595000,2701000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5423064-0757a6b52da13c01fdeae062ea132403&start=2595&end=2701","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5423064-0757a6b52da13c01fdeae062ea132403/thumbnail_2595000.jpg","/articles/6745640/Carroll-County/Maryland/Carroll-County-adopts-2025-Radiological-Ingestion-Exposure-Pathway-Plan","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6745640-86654132879e1774331a034f3446edb5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771185777&Signature=MQX8yenQW65a3~S1Dy4d7SPYt1Dkokh-njKST~VjdCOCNfxvoE2liS0zFOBFEn82RkBya6L981uBnDi2hX4dDqc54Kn1h2RcGSDQ8U~UidWczIPJZbmZ2Te~8EhCru5P3ttCSateArO2U9ot534Mn-uXtSrOajj6vOGwr~6ZfK~PwvoHSRFAPrh9Na18EvOBgHdev9gCnIfHhyWRWrJ6aDJk10eHLqACYSVTTZ80xxOBy~sCANiUmbcVXUMQMqiyWNAZmNma1dSLn2dIIQsPxHgHO1sBYDLl2k5TOwk55kE4Nd1OtIdgb2B86PVx1MWZS0UhPPWzu1H9VAbmmg5ozw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Carroll County Board of Commissioners voted Thursday to endorse and promulgate the county'wide 2025 Radiological Ingestion Exposure Pathway Plan, a FEMA-required document that lays out roles and procedures for agencies responding to a radiological emergency.

The plan is required because parts of Carroll County lie within a 50'mile ingestion radius of the Peach Bottom Atomic power station in York County, Pennsylvania, county staff said. Assistant Manager Jacob Hill told commissioners the plan \"establishes procedures, guidance, roles, and responsibilities\" for response agencies and provides awareness and guidance to responding organizations.

County staff said the plan aligns local response with state and federal partners and consolidates coordination among county agencies. The board heard a short slideshow and then voted to endorse the plan; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

No members of the public spoke in opposition during the presentation. Commissioners did not substantially amend the document during the meeting; staff said the plan meets federal requirements to maintain community emergency preparedness related to a radiological incident.

The endorsement triggers the county'level steps to publish and distribute the plan to partner agencies and to continue coordinated exercises and outreach required under federal guidance.","The Board of Commissioners voted to endorse and promulgate the 2025 Radiological Ingestion Exposure Pathway Plan, a FEMA-required plan because portions of Carroll County fall within the Peach Bottom Atomic station'related ingestion zone.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6745623,"Carroll County honors Tammy Haines for 30 years of workforce development service",195,2134000,2329000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5423064-0757a6b52da13c01fdeae062ea132403&start=2134&end=2329","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5423064-0757a6b52da13c01fdeae062ea132403/thumbnail_2134000.jpg","/articles/6745623/Carroll-County/Maryland/Carroll-County-honors-Tammy-Haines-for-30-years-of-workforce-development-service","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6745623-4274dd3db78be9a55d8d65f379b7f123/orig.mp4?Expires=1771185777&Signature=R7yNpklvRiGWBoP0c8ctv~0f~~z54ULFlZD28NL6YHEcWWgl-asiOFDIMiZXSSzUiyFENsxYNC45WGIjSNLhl-hXKdQa70X8VFLxf~MIMUL4t67QPI6zXsDBvKHdx7PfjsMPiQQ1HVvv850Tk6~3I08Rti5c-9oQQ0RtWT5C4Kz0RwTVuwS2oH2pMQXk4dN4Oc0MqsfZJdisYIU~rxwNkM55XOXoOCP7QhD2nUcCS3Plihh836I~WBMa3PeXFkXGuzWzXdfyt1cCWmxPhiMfa1wCBIeMX17-Sl~fKuXMfTa1y6PaJlzBohoDINUpDL0DRgqGwXjm25t2UI5T9yQDrg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Commissioners presented a certificate of recognition Thursday to Tammy Haines for more than 30 years of service to Carroll County in workforce and employment services.
