Monocacy River may gain 50-foot buffer if counties back plan
Frederick and Carroll counties consider a plan by the Monoecacy Scenic River Citizens Advisory Board to set a 50 foot buffer along both shoreline sides. A public hearing was unanimously approved by Frederick County to advance the proposal. The plan urges identifying sensitive areas within the buffer and calls for environmentally sensitive land planning, project coordination and stormwater management as growth pressures rise. The final adoption rests with local governments before state review and potential General Assembly approval next January.
