Parks Funding Remains Tiny Share of Frederick Levy
Frederick County spends just four tenths of one percent of its 22.3 million budget on parks and recreation. The county hosts over 12 000 acres of parkland on Catoctin and Sugarloaf Mountains but has only 70 acres within its own holdings. Nearby Montgomery and Prince George's counties fund open space with higher park tax receipts and bond programs, while debates continue on preserving farmland via scenic easements and tax incentives.
