Debates over a middle school relocation and ongoing subdivision construction marked a year of planning and conflict.

Damascus Growth Paused by Moratorium Yet School Modernizes
Damascus saw slow residential growth in 1993 due to road capacity limits while the high school began a 6.2 million modernization project including a new lunch room gym and auditorium. Main Street received paving and lights as planners eye a new fitness center and a five theater complex. A Magruder Branch Trail project and a wetlands restoration venture were completed, and civic groups planned patriotic downtown decorations. A feasibility study on a maintenance tax district progresses amid talks of lifting the moratorium when Woodfield Road connects to Route 27. A new middle school is planned on Md 355 with potential conversion to a high school as population grows.
