County OKs Emmitsburg growth lines south of town
The Frederick County Commissioners approved a 20 year growth boundary for Emmitsburg extending south to near Mount St Mary's College property. The plan shifts future growth toward college land and potential biotech park sites while outlining housing opportunities for employees of future companies. A traffic light project at MD 180 Holter and Lander roads was approved with shared funding from state and developer, despite a dissenting vote over congestion justification.
