Board approves consent agenda including grants for public safety, parks and planning

The Calvert County Board of County Commissioners adopted its consent agenda on June 3, approving eight items that the county described as routine.

Items approved under consent included grant applications, mutual-aid agreements, tax-credit approvals and contract actions. The board moved and seconded the consent agenda and approved it by voice vote; the transcript records no roll-call tally.

The consent items listed on the meeting record were: - Item 1: Department of Public Safety fiscal year 2025 American Trauma Society "Stop the Bleed" grant application. - Item 2: Department of Parks and Recreation FY2025 Program Open Space application for Cove Point Park playground (moved to new business at the meeting). - Item 3: Calvert County Sheriff's Office state FY2025 Edward J. Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program. - Item 4: Department of Public Safety Metropolitan Fire Chiefs Council of Maryland mutual-aid agreement for firefighting, rescue, EMS and special operations. - Item 5: Department of Public Works tree debris disposal from an extreme weather event. - Item 6: Department of Planning and Zoning historic preservation tax credits 2025-02 and 2025-04, Hampton Historic District. - Item 7: Department of Parks and Recreation Calvert County Youth Opportunity Recreation Fund FY2025 application revision. - Item 8: Department of Finance and Budget contractor agreement and budget amendment for financial services.

A board member moved to amend the agenda earlier in the meeting to move one consent item (Item 2) to new business; the board approved that amendment by voice vote before adopting the remainder of the consent items. No member of the public registered comments on these consent items during the meeting record presented in the transcript.

Adoption of the consent agenda bundles routine administrative approvals; departments will proceed with required follow-up actions and contract executions as applicable.
