Mayor (unnamed) opened the work session and announced a temporary reordering of the agenda because the Planning & Zoning administrator (Sarah) would arrive later; he explained items will start with the disabled police/EMS tax proposal then circle back to land‑use items once Sarah arrives.
Chesapeake Beach town council work session covered reordering the agenda, a motion to add a plaque to the rail-trail, a proposal to exempt 100% disabled police/EMS from property tax, the Southern Maryland Art Convention pitch, proposed 'slow bike' code changes for boardwalks, a NewGen water/sewer rate study discussion, referral of land‑use items to Planning & Zoning (ADUs, short‑term rentals, home‑based businesses), a proposed backyard‑hens conditional use, fence permit/appeal issues, parking/ADU parking requirements, and a contested open‑space (FIDs) covenant involving Richfield Station developer activity.
