The Commissioners may approve, deny or modify the fee schedule or wait until a later date to deliberate. REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Pursuant to Maryland Annotated Code, §11-201 et. seq. of the Land Use Article, a legislative body of a county may provide a civil penalty for a zoning violation in the form of a fine. In addition, a legislative body may impose a fine not to exceed $500 for each violation that occurs. DISCUSSION: Zoning violations typically fall under one of three categories, junk and/or junk vehicles, animal husbandry violations, and uses that are operating without proper zoning permits. Currently, each of these violations carries a fine of $500 per citation; the maximum fine permitted by law. These amendments seek to temper those fines for first-time/one-time offenders and provide an increasing scale of fines for repeat offenders. FISCAL IMPACT: This is an existing revenue line item in the County budget. Reducing fines for first-time/one-time offenders could reduce the revenues collected.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK When Hagerstown Regional Airport (HGR’s) Terminal building was built in the early 1990s it was designed to serve small (<19 seat) commuter aircraft. Since the arrival of a new commercial service provider Allegiant, passenger volumes have continued to grow, and additional routes are continuing to be added. In recent years annual flights have increased by over 38% and the aircraft being utilized now have up to 190 seats per flight, resulting in a strain on the capacity of the current facilities. Therefore, there is a critical need for this planned expansion to accommodate additional ticket counters, airline offices/storage/support areas, and queuing space to meet the current service demands. Also, as part of this expansion, it is the County’s desire to increase market access and provide space to attract a new service entrant and increase competition. Operational, program elements, and critical components for this project include the following: Operational o Expanded Allegiant operations o Use of larger Design Aircraft (Boeing 737-800/900 - 189 PAX seat capacity). Program Elements o Review of Non-Hub FAA eligibility requirements. o Identification of FAA eligible program spaces o Expansion limited to two (2) structural bays (pre-approved 4,800 SF) o New Common-Use (1-2 Entrant) Ticket Counter positions o Ensure sufficient TSA Security Area o Improved Airline OPS space behind Ticket Counters o Improved Passenger Queue and Circulation areas in the Ticket Lobby o Flex Space for future Airport development o Evaluate ability to enclose the exterior space adjacent to the Baggage Make-up from the elements Critical Components o Signage upgrades o Provide sun/shading control for the East Lobby window wall o Additional Access Control (HID+) and Security Camera o Review of Means of Egress distances B.

PRINCIPAL Email: rmorris@adci-corp.com Bushey Feight Morin Architects, Inc. (BFM) is pleased to submit our Architectural/Engineering fee proposal for the proposed 4,800 sq. ft. addition to the Hagerstown Regional Airport Terminal Building. The expansion will increase the existing 23,910 sq. ft. terminal to 28, 710 sq. ft., adding additional common use ticketing gates and baggage handling areas. The recently added TSA baggage screening equipment room will remain in its current location. With Allegiant Airlines adding Boeing 737's to its fleet, the 190-passenger jet will require additional space for passenger check -in. The additional common use space will provide passengers comfort with additional pre - check -in waiting along with new vending, car rental and possible cafe space. Baggage handling will be increased in size with renovations improving efficiency in luggage movement. Project Understanding BFM provided a design concept in March of 2022 illustrating a modular addition with 24 ft x 28 ft bays.

President _________________________________________________ Accepted Client (name, title, signature, date, PO#) November 11, 2024 Mr. Ron Morris, PE, CM, Senior Engineering Manager Airport Design Consultants, Inc. (ADCI) 1800 JFK Blvd., Suite 444, Philadelphia, PA 19103 RE: Proposal for Geotechnical Exploration HGR- Terminal East Expansion Hagerstown, Maryland Triad Proposal No. 03-24-1114 Dear Mr. Morris: Triad Engineering, Inc. (Triad) is pleased to submit this proposal for a geotechnical exploration of the above referenced site. We received the project RFP dated November 6, 2024 from you. This proposal outlines our understanding of the project, describes our planned scope of services and contains an estimate of the fee for our services. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The site for the planned project is at the Hagerstown Regional Airport. The project consists of a new building to expand the east side of the existing terminal building at the airport. Based on the Survey and Boring Exhibit provided in the RFP, we anticipate the new building will have a footprint of approximately 50 feet by100 feet. We understand the building will be a 1-story steel framed structure. The anticipated foundation loading is a maximum service column load of 55 kips and wall load of 2kip/ft. Grading plans have not been prepared. Based on the existing site topography and the finished floor elevation of the existing terminal building, we anticipate cuts and fills on the order of 5 feet or less will be required to achieve final grades within the majority of the building footprint. SCOPE OF SERVICES As requested, we propose to drill six (6) borings within the proposed building footprint. Upon completion of the field work, we will conduct appropriate soil testing in our laboratory and prepare a detailed geotechnical report. Our planned scope of services is more fully discussed below. HGR Terminal East Expansion November 11, 2024 RE: Triad Proposal No. 03-24-1114 Page 2 Field Exploration We propose to accomplish the test borings with a track- or ATV-mounted rotary auger drill rig and perform Standard Penetration Testing and sampling at 2.5-foot sample intervals to a depth of ten (10) feet and at 5-foot intervals thereafter. The borings will be extended to a maximum depth of 15 feet each or refusal, whichever occurs first. The boreholes will be checked for groundwater upon completion and then backfilled with auger cuttings. Borings within pavement areas will be patched with asphalt cold patch. Please note that some settling of this backfill may occur over time. Any excess spoils will be spread flat in green areas or hauled off site. Our proposal does not include return site visits for maintenance of the borehole locations after our on-site work is complete. A geotechnical engineer from our office will be present during the drilling work to supervise the field exploration program and log all of the borings. We understand that the project surveyor will establish boring locations and determine ground surface elevations prior to our mobilization on site. Underground Utilities Unmarked underground utilities pose a grave threat to workers performing subsurface drilling and excavation. Because of this, Triad will contact the appropriate public utility location service (e.g., Miss Utility, One-Call, etc.) to mark underground utilities prior to our subsurface exploration. However, it must be noted that public utility location services will not mark private underground lines or public underground utilities beyond a meter. Therefore, it is your responsibility to disclose the presence and provide the accurate location of all underground utilities not marked by the public utility location service. Triad will not be responsible for any damages that may result from striking underground utilities during the course of the subsurface exploration. We understand that the project surveyor, will be providing a private utility locator to mark underground utilities in the vicinity of our boring locations. Laboratory Testing Laboratory testing will be conducted on representative samples to supplement field classifications, assess potential volume change characteristics and establish foundation design parameters. The following types and numbers of tests are planned: TYPE OF TEST PLANNED NUMBER Moisture Content 10 Classification (Sieve Analysis and Atterberg Limits) 2 HGR Terminal East Expansion November 11, 2024 RE: Triad Proposal No. 03-24-1114 Page 3 Evaluation and Detailed Report Upon completion of the field exploration and laboratory testing, we will prepare a detailed geotechnical report which will include the following: 1) A detailed discussion of the site geology and subsurface conditions encountered. 2) Detailed boring logs with a Boring Location Plan. 3) Results of laboratory soil testing. 4) Foundation recommendations with specific references to bearing capacity, settlement potential and seismicity data. 5) Recommended modulus of subgrade reaction for design of slabs-on-grade. 6) Recommendations for site preparation and controlled fill construction. 7) Foundation construction procedures. Our services for this project are strictly limited to those described herein. If necessary, additional services which may be required will be addressed by a change order to this contract. ESTIMATED FEE AND SCHEDULE The fee for our services will be based on the unit prices listed herein and the actual quantities of work performed. Based on these unit rates and the scope of work outlined in this proposal, we estimate a total fee of $8,270.25. An itemized fee estimate is attached to this proposal. Triad will submit invoices for payment on a monthly basis, or upon project completion, whichever occurs first. Our invoices will be based on the actual amount of work completed in the previous period. Any subcontractor costs will be invoiced immediately upon receipt. Payment is due no more than 30 days following receipt of our invoice unless the provisions of our contract set forth an alternate schedule for payment. The quoted unit rates are firm. The quantities of work are estimated based on our past experience and judgment, and therefore, the actual fee for the project may be more or less than estimated. We recommend a “not to exceed fee” of $9,000. This includes a contingency to cover unforeseen conditions that may arise during field work and require that additional work be performed while personnel and/or equipment are immediately available. This contingency is designed to protect your interests. If it is necessary to demobilize and later remobilize personnel and equipment, both cost and schedule could be impacted significantly. If we recognize that the Scope of Work required to complete the project will increase significantly (beyond the contingency discussed above), Triad will provide you with a Change Order to authorize additional fees. HGR Terminal East Expansion November 11, 2024 RE: Triad Proposal No. 03-24-1114 Page 4 The field exploration fees include mobilization and transportation of drill rig and crew to and from the site and the listed totals of soil drilling and sampling. Fees for stand-by time (at the Client’s request) or additional soil and rock drilling footage have not been included. The charges for these items will be additional, if required. Charges associated with post-report meetings, plan reviews and extensive consultation have not been included and will be invoiced on a time and materials basis at the prevailing Schedule of Fees rates. Our workload at the time of authorization will have some influence on the starting date for the investigation. We are normally able to initiate field work within five to ten working days after written authorization is received. We anticipate that the field exploration will require approximately 1 day, and laboratory testing will require about 2 weeks. Our report can be submitted within 1 to 2 weeks after completion of the field and laboratory work. It is emphasized that this schedule is an estimate and it is based on normal work loads and appropriate weather conditions. AUTHORIZATION This proposal and the attached Professional Services Agreement (PSA) represent the entire understanding between you and Triad with respect to the subject project. If our scope of services and related fees are acceptable, please complete the attached PSA and return it to us. Our receipt of the signed PSA will constitute formal notice to proceed. This proposal will remain open for a period of sixty (60) days from this date. We appreciate the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to working with you on this project.

Bidle, Jr., Prof. LS Survey Practice Leader Attachments: Exhibit “EX-1” Professional Services Agreement Land- 4,800 airline vehicle landsic Open Session Item SUBJECT: Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Program (MALPP) 60/40 Match for FY 2026 PRESENTATION DATE: 12/10/2024 PRESENTATION BY: Chris Boggs, Rural Preservation Administrator, Planning and Zoning RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve a $1,300,000.00 commitment from the County Real Estate Transfer Tax Reserve to the 60/40 match component of the MALPP easement program for FY 2024 Cycle. REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Each year the Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Foundation (MALPF) asks counties if they want to obligate funds to the 60/40 match portion of the Land Preservation Easement Program. Land Preservation staff is recommending that Washington County designate $1,300,000.00 as its 40% local match in order to receive the full 60% State match of $2,000,000.00. The commitment requested today will result in total funding of about $5,000,000 for easement purchases in FY 26 (including approximately $1,500,000 of general allotment funds that all counties receive). These Transfer Taxes collected each year are restricted for use in preservation programs and are not General Fund dollars. DISCUSSION: For clarity’s sake, State funding contributions to the Ag Preservation Program result from the following distributions. The entire MALPP fund is divided in half. One half is divided equally among all Maryland counties which will result in an FY 2026 “General Allotment” of approximately $1,500,000 for each County. The remaining half is divided among only those Counties that make local commitments to the 60/40 matching program and is used for the State’s 60% contribution. FISCAL IMPACT: This 60/40 match commitment and General Allotment money results in funds for land preservation easement purchases on approximately five (5) farms. There are no General Funds involved. The full $1,300,000.00 comes from the Real Estate Transfer Tax Reserve. CONCURRENCES: The Agricultural Land Preservation Advisory Board has endorsed the use of the above funding source for the 60/40 match; Kelcee Mace, CFO ALTERNATIVES: Commit funding from a different County account; commit different amount of funding; commit no funding ATTACHMENTS: N/A AUDIO/VISUAL NEEDS: N/A Board of County Commissioners of Washington County, Maryland Agenda Report Form Open Session Item SUBJECT: Establishment of Adna Fulton Forest Mitigation Bank PRESENTATION DATE: December 10, 2024 PRESENTATION BY: Travis Allen, Senior Planner, Department of Planning and Zoning RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve Adna Fulton forest mitigation bank and recordation of the Deed of Conservation Easement. REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Application has been made to establish a new forest mitigation bank on Alt-40 near Roxbury Rd. Forest mitigation banks are established to provide off-site mitigation for development projects that must offset regulated forest clearing under the County’s Forest Conservation Ordinance (FCO). The site would retain a significant block of existing forest alongside Antietam Creek. A Forest Mitigation Bank Easement, an access easement and a Declaration of Maintenance and Inspection Covenants will be recorded. DISCUSSION: Forest mitigation banks may be established on either newly planted forest or on existing forest. The applicant proposes to establish the latter type at the site, totaling 65.47 acres of existing forest across three properties owned by the applicant. To utilize acreage contained within the forest bank, a prospective future development project must first demonstrate that they cannot reasonably accomplish other, more preferred techniques listed in Article 10 of the FCO such as onsite planting or forest retention. If demonstrated, credits can then be purchased from the owner of the forest bank to meet forest mitigation requirements for the proposed project. The purchase of mitigation credits is a private transaction between the developer and the forest bank owner. This item was presented to the Washington County Planning Commission at their regular meeting on November 4, 2024. The members unanimously recommended for the bank’s approval at the meeting.

The goal is to mimic natural infiltration patterns across the site in order to maintain natural hydrology. a.Methods to pursue include the use of sheet flow to buffers, vegetated channels to convey road runoff (i.e. roadside swales), disconnection of roof and non-roof runoff, methods of bioretention such as rain gardens. b.Reduce impervious cover as outlined in the MDE stormwater management manual section 5.1.3.1, which is available online at their website: (http://mde.maryland.gov/programs/water/StormwaterManagementProgram/Documents/www.mde.state.md.us/assets/document/Design%20Manual %20Chapter%205%2003%2024%202009.pdf). In addition to these methods, options to pursue include the use of shared parking/driveways and pervious materials wherever possible. c.Locate impervious surfaces as far as possible from permanent and intermittent streams and their floodplains. 2.In order to minimize rick of sedimentation in the aquatic and wetland habitats and to minimize changes to the hydrology of these habitats: a.Minimize clearing and retain forest - The limits of disturbance should be the minimum needed to build homes, allow access and provide fire protection. Conduct clearing and construction in phases in order to avoid having large areas cleared at one time. Pursue clustered development in order to allow retention of large blocks of contiguous upland forest along streams and wetlands. b.Stabilize soil - Stabilization should occur immediately (within 24 hours). Special effort should be made to retain fine particle silt, sand and clay sediments including the incorporation of redundant/additional control measures in the sediment and erosion control plan to ensure maximum filtration of any sediment-laden runoff (e.g., accelerated stabilization, two rows of silt fencing, super silt fence instead of silt fence, etc.). c.Inspect frequently - All measures should be inspected daily to ensure that they are functional from the very initial stages through final construction, and any problems should be corrected immediately. d.Provide a minimum 100 ft undisturbed forested upland buffer to permanent and intermittent streams and nontidal wetlands. e.Avoid disturbing steep slopes (15% slope or greater) and areas of highly erodible soils. 3.Where instream work is unavoidable, provide adequate passage for fish, reptiles and amphibians. Further consultation with the Natural Heritage Program should be sought in order to minimize impacts from instream work in or upstream from rare species' aquatic and wetland habitats. Maryland State Endangered Species Notice Maryland Department of Natural Resources Natural Heritage Program indicates the potential for the existence of the habitat of a Maryland designated threatened or endangered species. Current and future owners are advised to contact the Natural Heritage Program for additional information on program guidelines or further determination of the existence of the habitat. No additional land use restrictions are imposed by Washington County. 1.The Forest Stand Delineation for the properties shown hereon was approved by the Washington County on July 10, 2019 (extended on January 27, 2022), FS-19-016 and January 1, 2022, FS-22-002. 2.The purpose of this Preliminary/Final Forest Easement Plat is to provide a bank of forest easement to have available for future use. 3.The bearings and distances are based on Maryland Grid NAD83.

This submission is a part of an application to establish an approved forest mitigation bank with the Washington County Board of County Commissioners which, when approved, will allow credits for forest mitigation within the county for approved development as follows: The forest bank owner of this easement shall comply with department procedures for: 1.Forest Banking: In accordance with regulations promulgated under the Maryland State Forest Conservation Act of 1991, and accordance with the Forest Conservation Ordinance of Washington County, the forest bank owner is hereby approved to participate in the forest banking program. 2.Grant of Forest Conservation Easement: The forest bank owner hereby agrees to subject a portion of the property described in Exhibit A totaling (65.47) acres, more or less (the "Easement Area"), to the terms and conditions of the Forest Conservation Easement ("The Easement"), executed and recorded in conjunction with this agreement in the land records of Washington County. 3.Record Keeping: Upon recordation of The Easement, the Department will establish a record to track the total acreage set aside pursuant to The Easement and each debit for forest conservation. The Forest Bank owner shall keep a record of each credit, contact information for the credit recipient and the available balance after each credit transaction. Procedure: Upon reaching an agreement with parties needing forest mitigation credits to utilize a portion of the Easement Area, the forest bank owner shall notify the Department by written instrument provided by the Department and known as a "Forest Bank Credit Transfer Record".
