The Commissioners may take action to approve or deny the ordinance amendments or wait until a later date to deliberate. REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Application is being made to repeal the existing ordinance entitled “An Ordinance to Provide Property Tax Credits for Improvements to Specified Historic Structures in Washington County Maryland” and to reenact, with amendments, The Washington County Historic Properties Tax Credit Ordinance. DISCUSSION: The Board of County Commissioners of Washington County, Maryland adopted an ordinance entitled “An Ordinance to Provide Property Tax Credits for Improvements to Specified Historic Structures in Washington County, Maryland” on May 5, 1990. The purpose of the 1990 Ordinance was to encourage preservation and protection of historic structures by granting a County Property Tax Credit on the improvements made to structures in the “HP” Historic Preservation District and the “AO” Antietam Overlay District as defined in the Washington County Zoning Ordinance. Since 1990 there have been several updates to both State and Local laws and ordinances which provide opportunities to expand this program and increase its participation and viability. The overall purpose of the Ordinance remains unchanged. These amendments seek to modernize and align the Ordinance with the changes made at the State and Local level since 1990 by increasing the percentage of tax credit to the maximum allowed by State law, clarify and expand eligible geographies, clearly define qualifying municipalities, expand qualifying rehabilitation expenses, and simplify the application process by accepting equivalent documentation. FISCAL IMPACT: Since its inception in 1990, tax credits in the amount of $103,000 have been processed. While these updates do intend to increase the percentage of credit from the existing 10% to 25% and the areas’/properties that would qualify, the impact is not anticipated to be more than the existing sum the program has awarded to date.

REPORT-IN-BRIEF: As part of the annual ARC funding program, Tri-County Council for Western Maryland, the local administrator of these federal funds, requests the County review and prioritize projects submitted for grant funding consideration. A review committee consisting of directors from the offices of Planning & Zoning, Business & Economic Development, Engineering, and Grant Management has reviewed the projects and assigned a preliminary ranking. The Board of County Commissioners has the final authority to review and rank the proposals at its sole discretion prior to submission to Tri-County Council.

ATTACHMENTS: N/A AUDIO/VISUAL NEEDS: N/A Board of County Commissioners of Washington County, Maryland Agenda Report Form Open Session Item SUBJECT: Wright Rural Legacy Program (RLP) Easement PRESENTATION DATE: April 23, 2024 PRESENTATION BY: Chris Boggs, Rural Preservation Administrator, Dept. of Planning & Zoning RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve the Samuel P. & Dana Moylan Wright RLP Easement project, in the amount of $184,459.60 for 49.542 easement acres, paid for 100% by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, and to adopt an ordinance approving the easement purchase and to authorize the execution of the necessary documentation to finalize the easement purchase. REPORT-IN-BRIEF: The Wright property is located at 15544 Dellinger Rd., Williamsport, and the easement will serve to permanently preserve a valuable agricultural, scenic and environmental property in the County. The parcel is mostly agricultural and woodland areas. It lies in a part of Washington County that was heavily trafficked during the Civil War and the Battle of Antietam and is adjacent to the Whilden House which is on the Maryland Inventory of Historic Places and is also owned by the Wright’s. The parcel adds on to a block of over 100 acres of contiguous preserved farmland near Antietam Battlefield and Williamsport. Eleven (11) development rights will be extinguished with this easement. DISCUSSION: Since 1998, Washington County has been awarded more than $31 million to purchase Rural Legacy easements on more than 8,700 acres near Antietam Battlefield in the Rural Legacy Area. RLP is a sister program to the Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Program (MALPP) and includes the protection of environmental and historic features in addition to agricultural parameters. RLP uses an easement valuation system (points) to establish easement value rather than appraisals used by MALPP. For FY 2024, Washington County was awarded RLP grants totaling $3,127,000. The Wright RLP Easement will use part of those funds. Easement applicants were previously ranked based on four main categories: the number of development rights available, the quality of the land/land management (agricultural component), natural resources (environmental), and the historic value. FISCAL IMPACT: RLP funds are 100% State dollars, mainly from DNR Open Space funds. In addition to the easement funds, we receive up to 3% of the easement value for administrative costs, a mandatory 1.5% for compliance/monitoring costs, and funds to cover all of our legal/settlement costs. CONCURRENCES: Both the State RLP Board and the State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) staff have approved and support our program. ALTERNATIVES: If Washington County rejects State funds for RLP, the funds will be allocated to other counties in Maryland.
