No direct county cost, but the deferral has delayed private development decisions and legal challenges are possible.

Retirement Homes and Villages Deferral Code Changes (Freedom Area)

Consultant costs under the Michael Baker International contract; specific figures not stated.

Park Field Restoration and Youth Sports Field Shortage

$5 million already set aside in the FY 2027 budget for field restoration, plus $92,539 for fall self-help projects.

Agricultural preservation program's final stretch

The Fisher easement costs $1,031,941 but is paid entirely with state grant funds; the county's annual MALPF budget is $1.33 million.

Cluster Subdivision Rules

None directly — but the rules affect the density and value of future subdivisions countywide.

Mobile home park expansion — Westminster

The park was listed for sale at $1 million this summer; neighbors fear a bigger park could pressure well costs and property values nearby.

Commercial kennel conditional use at 6270 Davis Road, Woodbine

An opposition appraiser testified a comparable adjacent sale showed roughly a 10% value loss backing to a kennel; a neighbors' petition drew nearly 500 signatures.

Expanding the supermajority requirement to additional taxes

Could make it harder to raise additional tax types if adopted.

Floodplain Management Code Amendments

Five property owners newly mapped in may face mandatory flood insurance if they hold federally backed mortgages; the county's Community Rating System discount of 25% softens premiums.

Freedom commercial core plan amendment and possible overlay zone

Consultant costs already budgeted; Krebs signaled she would vote against any change order requiring more money.

Davis Road safety, width, and school bus access

Testimony suggested emergency response times could degrade and road maintenance costs could rise under heavy commercial traffic.

Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Text Amendments Under HB 1466

Property owners may bear septic expansion costs; a 10,000-square-foot discharge area requirement is under statewide review.

Master plan update restart

No direct county spending decided, but future zoning changes could shape housing costs for years.

Alcohol sales to minors enforcement

Each establishment pays a $300 fine; businesses avoid the stigma of public violation signs.

Freedom Designated Growth Area development deferrals

No direct cost, but delayed approvals affect development timelines in the Freedom area.

State regulations driving up housing costs

Lot preparation costs of $55,000–$100,000+ before a foundation make entry-level housing nearly impossible without incentives or code changes.

Contractor's equipment storage yard, Sykesville

Supports a local small business employing six to eight people.

Liquor board rule book overhaul

Requires LLC members to have real financial skin in the game ($5,000-plus or percentage stakes).

Bridge Repair Services

$175,629.88 from the FY27 adopted budget.
