A public hearing on a large proposed solar installation in Dickerson is tonight at 7pm.

This is a virtual meeting that can be watched here via live stream on YouTube.

The Maryland Public Service Commission’s decision on this issue, expected in the fall, could significantly alter solar energy development in the Ag Reserve and potentially harm the viability of farming. Written comments can be submitted through the Commission’s website. Include reference to Case No. 9726.

You can read SCA’s web post on the project here.

 

Reminder

The Montgomery County Council is considering a zoning change to allow landowners and farmers in the Ag Reserve to host overnight guests in what will essentially be privately-run campgrounds.

A new version of the zoning proposal emerged this month. Read all about it here.

A public hearing on this issue before the Montgomery County Council is scheduled for July 16 at 1:30pm. Anyone can testify or provide pre-recorded or written testimony.

We’d like to hear from you on the overnight farm stays issue. Do you like the idea of tent camping on farms? How about RV camping? Or are you concerned? Please email us at info@sugarloafcitizens.org with your thoughts.
