Trappe approves joint-use agreement draft for Home Run Baker Park with Talbot County

Trappe Town Council · December 3, 2025

Summary

The council approved a revised joint-use agreement for Home Run Baker Park that removes a clause making the Town solely responsible for maintenance; the agreement requires both jurisdictions to keep the park open for public use and further administrative steps on funds handling were discussed.

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

Ryan noted the town will need to create a plan for how funds will be handled and that a separate agreement with Home Run Baker Park may be necessary; she said the County Council still must approve and sign the agreement and hopes to place it on the next county agenda. The council moved to approve the joint-use agreement and recorded a unanimous vote.
