MES Could Fund Linganore Lake Dam Repairs
The Maryland Environmental Service agreed to meet with the Lake Linganore Association to discuss financing options for Lake Merle Dam repairs. Association leaders hope MES could provide initial relief from an $800,000 bill and avoid a future residents’ special assessment, with a loan repaid through a financing plan and a one time MES service fee. MES would issue bonds under certain conditions, a possible milestone after Calvert County’s dam repair financing experience.
