Appendix Washington County Planning Commission 2001 Annual Report Board of County Commissioners Gregory I. Snook, President Paul L. Swartz, Vice President Bertrand L. Iseminger John L. Schnebly William J. Wivell Planning Commission Paula Lampton, Chairperson Robert E. Ernst, II, Vice-Chairman Bertrand L. Iseminger, Ex-Officio George Anikis Don Ardinger R. Ben Clopper Timothy Henry Published December 16, 2002 Washington County Planning Commission 80 West Baltimore Street Hagerstown, MD 21740 THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Implementation of policies associated with the Comprehensive Plan continued through FY 2001. Items, which are outlined in greater detail in other sections of this report, are directly related or reflect some aspect of the implementation of the policy and goals of the Comprehensive Plan. During FY 2001 the Planning Commission worked to implement the policies of the existing Comprehensive Plan through adoption of amendments to the Zoning Ordinance and other regulations while work on the update to the Comprehensive Plan continued. Work on the updating of the Comprehensive Plan continued on the last 6 chapters of the revised plan. This included development of maps and charts to depict information and present recommendations proposed in the revised Plan. Work on the update was anticipated to continue throughout the next fiscal year. Since the Comprehensive Plan adoption in 1981, the Planning Commission and the Planning Staff have worked continuously to implement its strategies for growth management in Washington County. The attached work program for FY 2001 is designed to continue that effort.

The Program was established and is regulated by Agricultural Article, Sections 2-501 through 2-515 of the Annotated Code of Maryland. It is administered through a Planning Commission staff member, by the Washington County Agricultural Land Preservation Advisory Board, the County Commissioners, and the Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Foundation (MALPF) of the Maryland Department of Agriculture. The program encourages landowners to voluntarily enter into an Agricultural Land Preservation District in which it is agreed that the land will not be developed for a period of at least five years (to receive County tax credits, the landowner is required to commit his property to agricultural use only, for a period of ten years). In return for the restriction, the landowner receives protection from nuisance complaints and becomes eligible to sell a Development Rights Easement. A landowner may exercise the option of selling a Development Rights Easement to the Agricultural Land Preservation Foundation provided that his offer to sell is recommended by the County’s Advisory Board and the County Commissioners. At the local level, the Agricultural Advisory Board reviews and ranks easement applications, assigning point value to such items as farm size, soil quality and development pressure indicators on its easement checklist. If purchased by the State of Maryland, the easement will remain effective in perpetuity. During FY 2001, total acreage in the program increased to 27,667 acres with a total of 203 agricultural districts. Under the MALPP easement purchase program, contracts were issued during FY 2001 for five (5) additional farms, bringing total easement properties in the program to 46 equaling 8,332 acres. In addition, ongoing Federal, State and private conservation easements around Antietam Battlefield effectively preserve an additional 8,100 acres of agricultural land in perpetuity. The Battlefield figure includes properties from the Rural Legacy Program. Total permanently preserved acreage in the County stands at 16,650 acres, counting the above listed programs, as well as donated easements.

METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION During FY 2001, the Hagerstown/Eastern Panhandle Metropolitan Planning continued to move forward. The organization is composed of representatives from Washington County, Maryland; Berkeley County, West Virginia; Jefferson County, West Virginia; and Franklin County, Pennsylvania. The organization’s home base is in the Washington County Planning Department. Revisions to the adopted Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for the years 2000 – 2002 were approved along with a new UPWP work program that focused on the updating the Long Range Transportation Plan. Development of and RFP to retain a consultant to complete the Long Range Transportation Plan was a priority project. Discussions were also held with representatives of the Maryland and West Virginia Departments of the Environment as well as the Maryland and West Virginia DOT’s on the impact or replacement of the one hour ozone attainment regarding with an 8 hour ozone attainment requirement as proposed by EPA. Work on developing RFPs for the following special studies projects: realignment of Rench Road with MD 65 and Battlecreek Blvd. intersection; alignment for Eastern Blvd. extension to March Pike; and an alignment for a bypass south and east of Funkstown from Alternate 40 to Hebb Road continued during this time period. The MPO’s presence as a transportation planning agency continued to evolve with letters of support requested from various local communities relating to Federal Transportation Funds or local initiatives. FOREST CONSERVATION PROGRAM Washington County continues to implement the local version of Maryland's Forest Conservation law. Through the inventory of existing forest on development sites and the calculation of minimum forest cover, based on existing forest and proposed development, the law is designed to slow the loss of valuable forest land in the State of Maryland. Several options for meeting obligations under the Ordinance are available. The first preferences are to prevent the disturbance of existing forest or to plant new forest on the development site. Planting new forest and placing easements on existing forest are also available. Payment of a fee in lieu of planting or retention is also allowable. In the past fiscal year the Washington County Planning Department processed 257 subdivision and site plan applications covering 3,788.58 acres of land. 196 or 76% of those applications were exempt from the requirements of the Forest Conservation Ordinance (FCO), approximately equal to the previous year’s exemptions. The chart below indicates the number and type of exemptions granted in the past fiscal year. A. < 40,000 SQUARE FOOT PARCEL 9 B. SIMPLIFIED PLAT 43 C. APPLICATION BEFORE EFFECTIVE DATE 4 D.

MINING 1 TOTAL SUBDIVISION AND SITE PLAN REVIEW EXEMPTIONS: 196 61 plans remain that must comply with the Ordinance in some other manner. Payment of the fee in lieu of planting is chosen most often. Of the 61 plans that were not exempt, 16 used the fee in lieu of planting choice, the same number as in the previous fiscal year. The approved payments will generate $91,911.60 for the Forest Conservation Fund and are equivalent to 21.10 acres of required reforestation. $103,367.38 in actual payments were collected during the fiscal year. The collected fees are equivalent to 23.72 acres of forest that were not required to be planted on development sites. Instead, these funds are used in a program developed and administered cooperatively with the Soil Conservation District to expend fee in lieu of funds to create new forest or permanently protect existing forest on private properties. Use of the fund is restricted by Maryland law to these efforts. The actual planting of 28 acres of new forest occurred during this fiscal year although it was included in the tally of new area permanently protected by easement in the previous year’s total. It was Phase II of last year’s project. Payment to the property owner for the easement occurred in the previous year while payment to the contractor for the actual planting occurred during this fiscal year and amounted to an additional $64,106.66 in expenditures from the Forest Conservation Fund. The cumulative total spent now stands at $694,250.71. This year’s activities saw an additional 62 acres of new forest planted and 51 acres of forested stream buffer permanently protected by easements at a total cost of $233,475.49. The amount of new forest or permanently protected existing forest as reported last year is 297.60 acres. Since adoption of the Forest Conservation Ordinance in February 1993, the fee in lieu of option has generated over $818,000.00 for the Forest Conservation Fund. A portion of the Forest Conservation Fund is earmarked for reforestation of the West Woods at Antietam National Battlefield, an arrangement that was approved by the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners in November 1994. A disbursement of $2,500 was made this fiscal year. 14 plans required no fees or planting because there was sufficient forest on the development site or another one under developer control to allow some clearing with no mitigation or no clearing was proposed or necessary. An additional 26 plans met forest conservation obligations in a previous phase of the development or plan review. New planting, a final method of compliance was used five times in the past fiscal year and produced 29.3 acres of new forest planted in environmentally sensitive or priority areas. All methods of compliance generate a plan review fee. There is no fee when a plan is exempt. The Planning Department collected $ 5,400.75 in Forest Conservation Plan review fees during the past fiscal year. An additional seven exemptions from the Forest Conservation Ordinance were granted for timber harvest activities which are not considered development activities. WATER AND SEWERAGE PLAN During FY 2001, The Planning Department completed review of two pending Water and Sewerage Plan amendments from FY 2000 and reviewed one new amendment. WS-00-01 was submitted in FY 2000 by Homer Bivens, a landowner and developer. The map amendment application was to expand the Martin’s Crossroads Restricted Use water service area with a priority designation of W-5, Planned Service. The purpose of the amendment was to allow for the provision of public water service to approximately 55 acres of property owned by the applicant and proposed for residential development. The property is located along the west side of Maryland Route 63, north of Cearfoss. A public hearing was held on June 12, 2000. The application was fund to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the County with the condition that the permitted density for any development would be limited to the same density allowed in areas where public water is not available. The amendment was approved and adopted by the County Commissioners on August 22, 2000. WS-00-02 was submitted in FY 2000 by Ron and Viki Vitkun, owners of Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Campground. The purpose of the map amendment was to establish a new Restricted Use Sewer Service Area with a priority designation of S-5 in order to provide public sewer service for the existing campground and proposed expansion. The property consists of approximately 90 acres and is located south of Maryland Route 68, west of Maryland Route 632. The amendment to the plan would facilitate the construction of a new sewer line from the campground to an existing force main in the vicinity of the Redman'’ Club. Sewage would be treated at the Conococheague Waste Water Treatment Plant. A public hearing was held on June 12, 2000. The amendment was found to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the County based on the policies and conditions of the Restricted Use Service area designation. The amendment was approved and adopted by the County Commissioner’s on August 22, 2000. WS-00-03 was an Administrative Text Amendment submitted by The Maryland Environmental Service on behalf of Farhney-Keedy Memorial Home and Village. The purpose of the amendment was to update the information in the plan regarding the design capacity and type of treatment provided for the small, private community sewerage system associated with the retirement community located off of Maryland Route 66 near Mapleville. The need for the amendment was a result of the construction of a new wastewater treatment plant to serve the community as part of an upgrade and expansion project. Pursuant to the policies of Appendix B of the water and Sewerage Plan, a public hearing is not required for an administrative amendment since it does not represent changes in policy or future plans. The amendment was reviewed, found to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for the County and approved by the Washington County Planning commission on January 8, 2001. Work on the State mandated update of the Water and Sewerage Plan remained suspended in FY 2001 pending the completion and adoption of a new Comprehensive Plan for Washington County. PARK AND ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING Park and Environmental Planning during FY 2001, as in previous years, included a variety of projects and activities. A WRA Permit application was prepared for several ADA accessible fishing platforms installed by the Parks Department, adjacent to Antietam Creek in Devil’s Backbone County Park. An inventory, map, and report of recreation facilities located at the old Fort Ritchie Army base in Cascade was produced. It is to assist in determining what areas and/or buildings the County may consider accepting as ownership of the site is in the process of being transferred from the Federal Government to the Pen Mar Development Corporation. Forest Conservation Ordinance related activities were a significant aspect of work tasks for FY 2001. Plans for five new subdivisions as well as the new Forty West Landfill were reviewed and comments prepared for planners to insure protection measures shown were adequate. Several forest conservation tree plantings were inspected and approved, and a Forest Stand Delineation was completed for the Veterans Park in Smithsburg. The FSD map as well as a concept plan for the Park, showing a location for the proposed town library was prepared using desktop GIS and presented to the Smithsburg Parks Board. Revision and updating of sections for the new County Comprehensive Plan was completed. Chapters discussing Environmental Resource Management and Community Park Facilities were edited and updated in preparation for printing and public presentations in the summer of 2001. HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMISSION The Washington County Historic District Commission continues to pursue its responsibilities and concerns regarding historic preservation through a variety of permits, applications and assignments from individuals and agencies. The Commission and the County can influence and encourage preservation through several different levels of review, incentives and education. Property tax credits are available for restoration, preservation or improvements to structures located in the County’s Historic Preservation or Antietam Overlay zoning designations. Proposals must be designed according to adopted standards and approved by the Commission. Two new tax credit applications were submitted and approved during the fiscal year resulting in over $5,318.00 worth of property tax credits for the property owners. Following a policy adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in 1989, the Historic District Commission reviewed three proposed demolition applications this year, a 25% reduction in the number from the previous year. Two were for residential structures, one of which the Commission opposed and the other judged to have been modified to the point of losing its character defining features. The third was for a group of agricultural buildings on County property that is proposed to become part of the Black Rock Golf Course. The Commission completed four design review applications for sites located in the Historic Preservation and Antietam Overlay zones. Three were applications for swimming pools and were approved. The remaining application required significant review and generated much public interest. The property owner proposed to rehabilitate an important 18th century farmhouse located on private property within the boundary of the Antietam National Battlefield. The building is proposed to be used as a small museum and bookstore, which generated opposition. The design of the rehabilitation of the structure was approved by the Historic District Commission because it was consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and was designed to retain the historic appearance and materials wherever possible. The HDC also approved the site plan because it provided a design for the reuse that complimented the structure. Among the many responsibilities accompanying the Commission’s Certified Local Government (CLG) status is participation in the National Register of Historic Places nomination process. Five additional applications were evaluated and recommended for listing. Two more districts were recommended for approval. The Williamsport Historic District contains 418 contributing resources and the Keedysville District includes 205 resources. Individual property listings were recommended for approval for sites known as Tipahato, Nicodemus Mill and Hills, Dales and the Vineyard. Washington County now has more than 80 National Register sites. The Historic District Commission’s application for CLG funding of Phase III of the Rural Community survey was approved which will provide funds from the State of Maryland to match the County contribution to the project to continue to survey and identify contributing historic structures in the County’s rural communities. The Commission’s participation in the development review process has and will continue to increase with adoption of new review policies by the County Commissioners. The Commission now formally participates in review of development projects where historic inventory sites are located on the proposed development site. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT The Division of Community Development provides direct assistance to individuals, organizations and municipalities in providing housing opportunities for low and moderate-income families, and assists in the economic development of the county where federal and state funds are utilized. These programs and activities provide a general framework for combating neighborhood and community deterioration through sound redevelopment efforts. Housing Repair Loan Programs These loan programs have been effective tools for providing essential home repairs and stabilizing the housing stock in neighborhoods and small communities. Rehabilitation expands the community’s tax base, extends the economic value of the housing stock and stimulates additional construction activities. 1) Housing Preservation Grant This program of the Rural Development Administration provides assistance to low and very low-income homeowners in the County. Funds are mostly reserved for use by the County’s elderly population who have a fixed income and no affordability to support conventional loan terms. Loans are available to help with property repairs, which are primarily heath and safety related issues. 2) Maryland Housing Rehabilitation Program The Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development, offers this program for the rehabilitation of homes and rental properties that serve income eligible occupants. Health, safety, structural and code violations receive first priority. 3) Revolving Loan Fund Utilizing the repayments from previous loans, we can continue to assist eligible households with rehabilitation efforts. This program is more flexible in the use of its funds and can be used for residential, business, and public renovations. 4) Emergency Grant Repair Program Washington County has an emergency repair grant program available to qualified homeowners. An “emergency repair” is a life-threatening situation, which prohibits someone from living in a safe, decent or sanitary conditions. 5) Emergency Home Repair Assistance Program for the Elderly & Disabled Washington County homeowners who require emergency repair work or accessibility modifications are encouraged to apply. Low and moderate income elderly and physically disabled homeowners who require emergency repairs or replacement of mechanical, electrical, plumbing and structural systems which show signs of deterioration as well as modifications to the residences for the physically handicapped are eligible. 6) Mobile Home Repair Loan Program Homeowners who require major repairs or replacement of mechanical, electrical, plumbing and structural systems, which show signs of deterioration as well as code deficiencies, are eligible to apply. Low interest rate loans and in some cases, deferred loans may be available to assist with repairs that pose physical danger, code violations or to make homes more weather and energy efficient. In some cases homeowners may be awarded a grant for eligible repairs up to $ 2,000. Elderly Rental Housing Development The department promotes the production of affordable rental housing for the elderly and non-elderly disabled which may be unavailable through the private sector due to income limitations. Our developments provide coordinated supportive services to allow the elderly population to maintain their independence and avoid costly alternatives. The department is proactive in project oversight throughout the development process. Community Development Block Grant Program This federal program provides grants and loans to counties and municipalities for the development or expansion of economic opportunities, public facilities and various housing activities. Local government can apply directly or undertake in joint projects on behalf of a larger application. The department can provide assistance with application preparation, project development, financial packaging and project management. Technical Assistance The department is available to assist public, private, not for profit groups and individuals that may be interested in gaining access or better understanding of the state and federal programs. Assistance is available to examine the feasibility of projects, funding avenues and regulatory requirements. DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY During the fiscal year, the Planning Commission reviewed development plans in both concept and final form. The Commission reviewed and approved 98 residential, commercial, industrial or institutional subdivision plats involving 394 lots representing 494 dwelling units on 1,026.4 acres. In addition, the Planning Commission approved 67 site plans and held 16 preliminary consultations. Some of the conceptual forms have not resulted in a firm design while others have proceeded through final approval. There were several subdivision or development plats of significance (final approval of twenty or more lots or dwelling units) approved during FY 2001. They include: Hamptons of Brightwood, Potomac Manor Section H, Valley Ridge Estates and Rosewood Village. Site plans representing significant private investment within the County were approved for: St. James School, Maryland Paper, Burger King at the Valley Mall, Martin Marietta, Crosspoint Shopping Center, JLH Enterprises, Phase III of the Robinwood Medical Campus, Valley World Motel, D.M. Bowman (warehouse), and the Cross Creek Commercial Area. Site Plans reflecting significant public investment were approved for the Humane Society of Washington County, Inc., Clear Spring Library, Washington County Agricultural Center, Forty West Landfill Administration Building, and the Washington County Sheriff’s Patrol Facility. REZONING CASES AND ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS Between July 1, 2000 and July 30, 2001, the Planning Commission acted on applications. Joint hearings with the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners were held regularly on a quarterly cycle or special hearings were held as necessary to provide for efficiency in the hearing process. The Commission rendered recommendations on map amendments and text amendments to the Zoning Ordinance and two map and one text amendment to the Water and Sewer Plan.
