Proposed Rosenstock annexation faces county opposition
Frederick County officials indicated the 672 acre Rosenstock farm annexation into Frederick city likely lacks county blessing. The county planning commission will review the request next week and several commissioners signaled potential legal action to block or limit development. If annexation proceeds without rezoning, state law may bar development for five years, with potential residential use conflicting with county plans. The issue highlights downtown concerns, suburban sprawl costs, and a possible island of county land within city limits.
