Little League, residents raise parking concerns as Trappe considers access at Kelly Drive for Baker Park field
Summary
Trappe Little League president said he met with Talbot County about installing a softball field at Baker Park and opening the end of Kelly Drive for parking; residents raised concerns about driveway-blocking and widening the entrance. The league will return with a draft plan.
Trappe — Nick Newnam, president of the Trappe Little League Association, told the council on July 2 that he met with Talbot County to discuss installing a softball field at Home Run Baker Park and the possibility of opening the end of Kelly Drive to add parking. He said plans have not been finalized and that the association is exploring options.
The town has received complaints from homeowners about vehicles parking along Kelly Drive and blocking driveways. Resident Richard Allison voiced concerns about additional parking and the potential for widening the current entrance; the minutes show Mr. Newnam will bring back a draft plan for council review at a future meeting. The minutes refer separately to 'President Newnam' (the council president) and 'Nick Newnam' (Little League president); the two are recorded distinctly in the meeting text.
