Board of County Commissioners
Court House Annex
Hagerstown, Maryland
Gentlemen:
The Planning Commission is pleased to forward for your use the
1982 Annual Report. This report, submitted pursuant to the provisions
of Article 66B of the Annotated Code, summarizes all the activities in
which the Commission was involved throughout calendar year 1982.
In addition to the continuing effort devoted to reviewing and ap-
proving subdivisions, development plans, and other land use proposals,
the Commission and the Planning Staff concentrated on the implementation
of the Comprehensive Plan adopted by the County Commissioners in February,
1981. The principal elements of the Plan that were assigned high prior-
ity for implementation are the Urban Growth Area Study, Agricultural Land
Use, Mineral Extraction, and Parks Planning. All these elements are
significant; with their eventual implementation, more effective and cost-
efficient government can be assured through cooperative measures between
Washington County and the adjacent municipalities.
Continuing with the trend begun several years ago, the Annual Report
is designed not only as a narrative documentation of the Planning Commis-
sion's activities, but it is also intended to provide important statistical
data for subdivisions, zoning changes, and loss of agricultural land. The
compilation of these data is intended to be of aid not only to the Commission
and the elected officials but to other government agencies and the public as
well.
Sincerely,
c. William E. Wolfor, , J
Chairman

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Throughout 1982, the Planning Commission proceeded with
the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan and the Plan's
policies that were adopted by the Board of County Commissioners
early in 1981. Within this Plan implementation, a schedule
that delineated the various priorities was addressed by both
the Planning staff and special committees established for the
purpose of implementing these policies. Major policies that
were assigned the designation of Priority 'A', and shown on the
accompanying implementation schedule, were such items as the
Urban Growth Area, Planned Unit Developments, the Preservation
of Agricultural Lands, Parks and Open Space, and Mineral Extrac-
tion.
The Comprehensive Plan Implementation Schedule was revised
early in 1983 to be adjusted to present availability of staff
efforts. That revised schedule is shown on Pages 2, 3, and 4
of this report.
The particular items that received the most effort through-
out 1982 are discussed beginning on Page S.

THE URBAN GROWTH AREA STUDY
Following the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan, the Plan-
ning Commission prepared a schedule of priority projects to be
accomplished over a period of several years. High on the list
of these projects was the creation of the Urban Growth Area
Committee as recommended by the Plan:
A Joint Study Committee or Task Force should
be appointed for each growth area to include
County and Municipal representatives. Such
groups should include citizen members, public
agency members, and elected officials. Among
the functions of these groups should be:
i. Identify issues and areas of mutual
concern related to growth management;
ii. Identify areas of conflict and produce
a statement of each point of view;
iii. Evaluate alternative approaches to
resolve areas of conflict;
iv. Report findings and recommendations
to the Board of County Commissioners
and to Municipal elected officials.
The Urban Growth Area was selected for the first study
because of the size of the area and the range of the growth
planning issues involved. Encompassing the City of Hagerstown,
the Towns of Funkstown and Williamsport and contiguous suburban
areas, the Urban Growth Area is inhabited by over half the pop-
ulation of Washington County. It was felt that if County -Municipal
-5-
agreement could be reached on the development of this area, the
results could be transferable to the smaller Town Growth Areas
to be studied at a later date.
The Planning Commission began in the Fall of 1981 by making
individual presentations outlining the purpose of the project to
the Board of County Commissioners and to the elected officials
of each municipality. General concurrence and a willingness to
participate was expressed by all parties. The following members
were designated to participate on the Urban Growth Area Committee
and to represent their respective jurisdictions:
Thomas Dwyer, Committee Chairman
Washington County Planning Commission
Thomas Beyard
Hagerstown Planning Commission
Jack Byers
Washington County Planning Commission
David Spinney
Hagerstown Planning Staff
Clark Spitzer
Funkstown Councilman
Les Stenger
Williamsport Councilman
James Witherspoon
Washington County Planning Staff
From the beginning, the Committee solicited the advice and
opinions of various agencies and interest groups in the County.
Notice of the project and an invitation to participate was mailed
to the following groups:
It
Washington County Department of Housing
and Community Development
Washington County Economic Development
Commission
Washington County Sanitary District
Washington County Fire and Rescue Com-
munications

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
A major recommendation of the Comprehensive Plan is that
"provisions for planned unit residential development should be
expanded in the Zoning Ordinance." The intent of PUD regula-
tions is to permit a greater degree of flexibility and more
creativity in the design and development of residential areas
than is possible under conventional zoning standards. The
purpose is also to promote a more economical and efficient use
of the land while providing for a harmonious variety of housing
choices, a more varied level of community amenities, and the
promotion of adequate open space and scenic attractiveness.
During the course of 1982 the Planning Staff held discus-
sions with local consultants and builders to develop some initial
ideas on what should be included in Planned Unit Development
regulations. The staff also received suggestions from the Urban
Growth Area Committee as part of the joint study which was being
conducted in the Hagerstown metropolitan area. The staff reviewed
PUD regulations which are currently in effect in other communities
and interviewed public officials responsible for administration of
these regulations in Frederick and Howard Counties. Another impor-
tant resource for this work was the Planning Advisory Report No.
291, Planned Unit Development Ordinances, which is one of the most
authoritative sources on this subject.

The Planning staff began in the Fall of 1982 to prepare
the initial draft of a Zoning Ordinance text amendment that
will allow for Planned Unit Development proposals in Washington
County. Important features of the initial draft include:
1. Use of the "floating zone" method of
approval;
2. Convening of a public hearing on each
PUD proposal by the Planning Commission;
3. A time limit to initial construction as
an anti -speculative device;
4. Location of PUD's within the Urban Growth
Area or Town Growth Areas within zoning
districts that permit residential uses.
Present plans are to refine the draft amendment in early
1983. The Planning Staff and Planning Commission members will
be visiting existing Planned Unit Developments that have been
constructed according to regulations in other communities in
Maryland. The Commission will also be soliciting comments from
the public prior to recommending the draft amendment to the Board
of County Commissioners some time during the Summer of 1983.

AGRICULTURAL LANDS STUDY
Data collection and research of agricultural lands was
conducted during the year as part of implementing the Compre-
hensive Plan objective which states that prime agricultural
land should be identified and preserved. Statistical informa-
tion about active farms was compiled to determine the nature
of agricultural activity in the County. A base map that
delineates the location of this farmland has been constructed
by the Planning Staff.
In the coming year, the collected data will be evaluated
by a task force that has been appointed by the Planning Commis-
sion. This information, in conjunction with a productive soils
map, will indicate the location of prime and productive agricul-
tural lands. Other data, such as location and magnitude of
subdivision activity, location of public utilities, and proposed
road improvements, will show the relationship of prime agricul-
tural land to that which will be lost in the near future to
residential and urban growth. Assessment of this data will aid
the task force in their main function of which is defining, identi-
fying, and delineating areas of the County containing prime
agricultural lands to be preserved. Staff assistance will be
provided to the task force during completion of this task.

PARK PLANNING ACTIVITIES
In 1982 the Comprehensive Open Space, Parks and Recreation
Plan was approved and adopted by the County Commissioners, and
its implementation was begun.
Much of the park planning activity during the year was
focused on the Clear Spring and South County Park sites. The
program analysis and site analysis for each park was completed
in early 1982 and included input and advice from local officials
as well as citizen survey results. The information gathered
during this phase of the planning process was used to prepare
the concept plan for each park. The plans received Parks Board
concurrence, and detailed design work is scheduled to commence in
1983 with each of the two parks being completed in some phase in
the 1983 season. Further development of the South County Park
site is expected to take place over a period of several years
with each of the various phases being done incrementally.
Other park planning activity during the year was assisting
in the preparation 'of a draft Planned Unit Residential Develop-
ment (PURD) Ordinance. This required researching open space
and environmental design requirements, home owners association
provisions, and PURD Ordinances in other counties.
As of the writing of this report a detailed parks design
schedule is being put together for addressing the many facets
of park planning activities throughout 1983. Some of these
-12-
activities will include additional work on the Clear Spring
concept plan, landscaping of the Clear Spring Park, continuing
work on the South County Park, devising a master plan for the
Mt. Aetna Furnace site, and preparing a maintenance impact
statement for existing County parks.

MINERAL EXTRACTION
This element of the Comprehensive Plan was worked on
throughout 1982 and in the first quarter of 1983 is nearing
completion. Following its presentation to the County Plan-
ning Commission, the study on mineral extraction will result
in a proposed amendment to the County Zoning Ordinanceto be
forwarded to the County Commissioners for adoption.
The principal items of concern addressed throughout this
study have been:
(1) The protection of IM Districts from
incompatible neighboring land uses;
(2) Assuring that mineral extraction only
occurs within IM Districts. In this
respect the "floating zone" technique
for permitting surface mining in the
County is being explored;
(3) The impact on road networks that will
be used for hauling from the quarry
sites;
(4) The consideration of surface mining
activities relative to Urban Growth
Area boundaries, neighboring agricul-
tural lands, and nearby residential
communities.
Included in the Mineral Extraction Study will be an analy-
sis of future potential uses in the impact of oil and gas
exploration throughout the County, should that come to pass.

THE AGRICULTURAL LAND
PRESERVATION PROGRAM
Washington County's effort to preserve valuable farmland
via the Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Program began
in April of 1978. The five -member Advisory Board appointed by
the Board of County Commissioners continued the effort in 1982.
The program is provided for by Agricultural Article, Section
2-501 through 2-515 of the Annotated Code of Maryland and is
administered through a Planning Commission staff member by the
Agricultural Land Preservation Advisory Board, the County Com-
missioners, and the Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation
Foundation of the Maryland Department of Agriculture.
The program encourages landowners to voluntarily enter in-
to 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. Once established in a district, 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 Agricultural
Land Preservation Advisory Board and the County Commissioners.
If purchased, the easement will remain effective in perpe-
tuity unless, after a period of twenty-five years, the State
Foundation approves an owner's request to be released from the
-15-
easement's restrictions on development. The owner must then
repurchase the development rights at their current market value.
The decision to purchase a development rights easement is
based on competitive rankings made at the State level using a
formula that compares the easement value as determined by the State
appraisers with the landowner's asking price.
The two easement applications that were purchased with
FY'82 funds are nearing completion of the settlement process.
Information on these two applications is listed below:
E.D. Name Acreage Farm Type
6 Lloyd B. Ford, et al 178.59 Dairy $ Crop
23 Robert E. $ Phyllis 241.96 Dairy $ Crop
J. Carr
The total acreage of productive farmland in Agricultural
Preservation Districts rose from 2240.34 acres in 1981 to
2874.64 acres in 1982. District applications received for
review by the Agricultural Advisory Board are listed below:

In addition to approving the above listed districts, the
Advisory Board received for review four applications to sell
development rights easements. The State Foundation's decision
on whether to purchase easements in Washington County with FY'83
funds will not be made until later in 1983.
For the first time since the program's inception in Wash-
ington County, the County Commissioners voted to commit funds
collected at the County level from the Agricultural Transfer Tax
for easement purchases. The County retains one-third of the total
transfer tax collected, specifically for this purpose, but must
formally assign the funds on a yearly basis to the easement pur-
chase program. The State Foundation will match the County's
contribution on a 60% State/40% County basis to further increase
the available funds. The total amount of transfer tax that the
Commissioners committed to easement purchases was $22,451.82.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM
The Capital Improvements Program remained a major activity
for the Planning Department Staff in the early months of 1982.
Following presentation to the Board of County Commissioners, the
Board adopted the program in June with an approved budget for
FY 1983 of $5.5 million. Of this total budget, approximately
$2 million came from the General Fund, $600,000 from Revenue
Sharing, and $163,000 from the Highway Fund. Federal Aid con-
sisted of $1.5 million and State Aid amounted to nearly $330,000.

GEOHYDROLOGIC STUDY
The Geohydrologic Study neared completion in 1982. This
$169,600 study, which has been funded by both the State of
Maryland with funds through the Environmental Protection Agency
and Washington County's government, has resulted in a proposed
Ordinance that will set forth specific procedures and standards
for administering, installing, and maintaining on -lot sewage
disposal systems throughout the County. The proposed Ordinance
was presented by the County Coordinating Committee and the con-
sultant, R. E. Wright and Associates, to the Board of County
Commissioners.
The Ordinance is primarily structured into two phases with
the first being the general administration of the regulations
plus the specific location and technical requirements for on -site
disposal systems. The second section of the Ordinance addresses
the various types of on -site systems deemed to be alternative and
innovative that may be suitable for use on marginal lands where
the conventional trench systems are not appropriate. The Maryland
State Health Department has not yet rendered its approval of this
Ordinance and the conflicting points are being addressed as of
the writing of this report. It is expected that by approximately
the mid -point of 1983 the conflicts within this proposed Ordinance
will have been resolved and that a viable document can be adopted
-20-
by the County Commissioners and accepted by the State that will
serve in years to come as a set of standards for the installation
and operation of on -site sewage disposal systems in the County.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Solid Waste Management Plan that was presented to the
County Commissioners in February of 1982 was adopted by the
Board in May of 1982 and forwarded to the State Department of
Health and Mental Hygiene as required by law. Subsequent to
the adoption, the Board of County Commissioners has reviewed
the seven principal recommendations that were in the Plan,and
early in 1983 the Board agreed to the implementation of each
one of these seven recommendations and assigned priorities to
those recommendations. It is expected that the implementation
of these various efforts will continue throughout 1983 and on
into 1984.

1982 SUBDIVISION ACTIVITY
The 1982 subdivision activity in the County reflected
the dismal state of the home construction industry. The
number of new residential lots dropped 57 percent from the
total in 1981.
Part of the reason for the decrease in new residential
subdivision lots may be attributed to a current surplus of
available lots. A survey was made of all subdivisions approved
from 1971 through 1982 containing five or more lots; the finding
was that there are 963 undeveloped lots in those subdivisions.
Comparative figures for 1980, 1981, and 1982 are shown on
the following page, including a listing of those approved as
simplified plats.
A listing of all approved 1982 subdivisions for development
by Planning Sector is provided on Pages 27a and 27b.
