Summary
At an Aug. 19 work session the Town Council approved June 17 minutes, recorded plans for a traveling Vietnam War memorial in October 2025, heard timelines for the Blue Ridge pump station and MD‑31 projects, noted a property review meeting for 1000 Green Valley Road, and adjourned at 7:38 p.m.
The New Windsor Town Council approved minutes from its June 17 meeting and reviewed a batch of community and infrastructure updates at a work session on Aug. 19, 2024, according to the council’s minutes.
The agenda recorded that the Vietnam War Traveling Wall Memorial is scheduled for Oct. 9–13, 2025 at the New Windsor Fire Department Carnival Grounds and will be open and staffed 24 hours a day. The minutes describe the display as a three‑fifths scale of the Washington, D.C., wall and about 300 feet long; sponsorship inquiries are directed to Tammy Ray at Babylon Vault.
Council members also received project updates. The minutes state that construction on the Blue Ridge Pump Station upgrade is set to begin on Jan. 10, 2025. The MD‑31 water work is described as “on schedule” with Mid‑Atlantic (contractor as listed in the minutes) and the MD‑31 sidewalk retrofit item notes a follow up with Andrew Radcliffe on Aug. 9, 2024 with no new information reported.
On planning, the minutes show a meeting has been scheduled to discuss DHCH involvement in the Springdale Prep master plan for the property at 1000 Green Valley Road; the minutes record the meeting was scheduled but do not list a date or decision.
