The Mayor and Commissioners of the Town of Elkton have proposed selling 20 acres of some of the most important open space and historic land in the couny seat. They have discussed doing this since March in public meetings, clossed sessions and workshops. On this blog I will try to keep you informed about what’s happening with this proposal.
Purpose
Originally concentrating on saving some Public Open Space Elkton proposed selling to a developer, we expanded the blog's focus once the Mayor and Commissioners abandoned the attempt. During the nearly year-long process, Someone Noticed found that many important subjects at town meetings weren’t being covered by the media and we also established a regular readership. In consideration of all these elements, we are now focusing more broadly on the “411 on the Mayor and Commissioners of the Town of Elkton” and subjects of broad civic interest to the Greater Elkton Community, especially when it isn't covered by other media. (see about section for more details.)Recent Comments
