Chesapeake Beach residents can look forward to a new monument honoring military veterans, as the Town Council discussed a proposal from Eagle Scout candidate Matt Flores during the September 18, 2025, meeting. Flores, who resides in Montgomery County, is seeking a location to build a monument that pays tribute to veterans from all military services. The council is collaborating with American Legion Post 206 to explore potential sites for this significant project.

In addition to the monument discussion, council members addressed community safety concerns regarding electric bikes and scooters. A council member inquired about any local increases in incidents involving these vehicles, referencing a recent tragic story from Virginia. While there was a report of a bicycle crash in the area, officials indicated that there has not been a notable uptick in related incidents locally.

The meeting highlighted the council's commitment to community engagement and safety, with plans for further collaboration on the monument project and ongoing monitoring of transportation safety. As the council continues to work closely with residents and organizations, the community can expect updates on these initiatives in the coming months.
