TRAPPE, MARYLAND — Trappe's Planning Commission will look at three new house plans from Maronda Homes and at food trucks when it meets Tuesday, Oct. 20, at 6 p.m.

Both items are listed under new business on the commission's posted agenda. The agenda gives no detail on either one: no drawings, lot numbers or locations for the house plans, and no proposal text for food trucks.

Under commission and staff items, the agenda lists comprehensive plan discussions as needed and the town's 12-month moratorium on data centers, Resolution 2-2026, which it says the Town Council adopted on Aug. 5, 2026.

The council's Aug. 5 agenda described the resolution as a moratorium on applications, site plans, permits, construction, operation, processing and approval of data centers in the town for 12 months. Its stated purpose was to let the town consider and put in place restrictions on where and under what circumstances data centers may locate in Trappe. The planning agenda does not say what the commission will discuss about it.

The commission will also take up the minutes of its Sept. 15 meeting. Public comment is on the agenda, and each speaker gets up to three minutes after being recognized and stating a name for the record.

The posted agenda does not list a meeting place.
