Summary

The council approved an updated joint-use agreement for Home Run Baker Park that removes a town-maintenance clause; the agreement must still be approved by the Talbot County Council before related funds can be released.

Town Attorney Lyndsey Ryan reviewed the updated draft joint-use agreement for Home Run Baker Park between the Town of Trappe and Talbot County. Ryan said the County removed the clause that would have required the Town to handle all maintenance and operation; the draft requires both the Town and County to ensure the park is open for public use without discrimination.

Attorney Ryan noted the joint-use agreement still needs approval and signature from the Talbot County Council and that the agreement is a requirement to receive related funds. Commissioner Walter Chase moved to approve the joint-use agreement; President Newnam seconded and the council approved it unanimously.
