EASTON, MARYLAND — Two Talbot County properties, one on Ferry Bridge Road in Easton and one on Leeward Lane in Tilghman, moved into the county's top sewer-priority class on Oct. 13. A third request, covering 21 parcels on Goose Neck Road in Royal Oak, did not get a vote.
The County Council approved Resolution No. 396, for 27414 Ferry Bridge Road in Easton, and Resolution No. 397, for 5586 Leeward Lane in Tilghman, by 5-0 votes, according to the county's meeting highlights. Each resolution moves the property from unprogrammed to S-1, the immediate priority sewer status in the Talbot County Comprehensive Water and Sewer Plan. That plan sets priorities for public water and sewer service across the county.
On Resolution No. 398, the Goose Neck Road request, the county said amendments are pending and the council did not take a vote during the meeting. The county's summary does not say what the amendments would change.
The council's next step is on its Oct. 27 agenda, which lists Resolution No. 398 under "Introduction of Amendment." The agenda does not include the amendment text.
All three resolutions were reviewed by the Planning Commission and the Public Works Advisory Board, the county said. Council President Chuck Callahan was absent Oct. 13 but had submitted absentee ballots for two legislative items, and every action passed either 4-0 among the members present or 5-0 where absentee ballots were submitted.
The council also approved four board appointments: Benny Mangor to the Police Accountability Board; Rabbi Jordan Goldson to the Social Services Board of Directors; Katie Levitan to the Upper Shore Workforce Investment Board of Directors; and the reappointment of Michael Sullivan as the Town of Trappe's representative on the Local Emergency Planning Committee, pending a successful background check.
The county's video archive lists the Oct. 13 meeting recording at 1 hour, 33 minutes.
The council's next regular legislative meeting is Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 5 p.m. in the Bradley Meeting Room, South Wing, Talbot County Courthouse, 11 North Washington Street, Easton. Two lots have their sewer status; the 21 on Goose Neck Road wait on the amendment.
