Council agrees to consider letter of support for Backtown Road water/sewer comp‑plan amendment pending Planning Commission ok
Summary
Attorney Lyndsey Ryan relayed a request from Zach Smith on behalf of Brian Hause for a Town letter supporting a Talbot County water and sewer comprehensive plan amendment (Backtown Road to S1/W1); the council approved providing the letter pending the Planning Commission's recommendation.
Attorney Lyndsey Ryan told the council on Sept. 4 that Zach Smith had requested a letter of support for a Talbot County Water and Sewer Comprehensive Plan amendment for property owned by Brian Hause on Backtown Road to change the designation to S1/W1. The minutes say Mr. Hause currently has no concrete plans but is still considering the previously presented 11‑lot industrial subdivision.
After discussion the council approved providing a letter of support conditioned on a recommendation from the Town's Planning Commission. Attorney Ryan also suggested the council consider increasing the town's procurement threshold above $10,000; the council asked her to prepare a proposed ordinance for the October meeting.
The council's action records only that the letter of support is to be provided pending the Planning Commission's recommendation; no county decision or schedule was recorded in the minutes.
