  • adopted a policy allowing administrative removals of resources from the Locational Atlas under certain circumstances

      • Recommended designation on the Master Plan for Historic Preservation
      • Will indicate to the County Council that the PB is considering a future study of all boundary markers along the Frederick-Montgomery-Howard County boundaries, including Parr's Spring, and if the County Council does not designate 15/1 Parr's Spring on the Master Plan, then the County Council should specify whether it wishes to have the Planning Board retain the resource on the Locational Atlas pending the future boundary markers study
