A Message from the CCA Board of Directors
Dear Neighbors –
The Crofton Civic Association Board of Directors is pleased to announce the selection of James Harvey to serve as Comptroller here at Town Hall.
After reviewing 18 applications submitted over several months and interviewing three, we believe Jim to be the best fit.
Jim has served as a district director on the CCA Board the past two years and many of you may know him through his work as publisher of Living in the Triangle magazine (more recently called STROLL – Crofton Triangle). As a result of his decision to close the magazine, Jim will be able to serve the citizens of Crofton full-time as Comptroller. He will officially start the new job July 20th.
Town Hall still has an opening for a part-time (20 hours per week) Maintenance Technician. It could be a great job for a recent retiree or someone looking for an easy commute! See our website for job details – www.croftoncommunity.org.

CCA Covenants
County Executive Signs “Front Yard” Purchase Bill
County Executive Steuart Pittman came to Crofton June 16th to sign Bill 51-21, the legislation that authorizes the Crofton Civic Association’s purchase of the 7-acre parcel at Crofton’s main entrance on Rt. 3. In attendance for the event were all nine members of the CCA’s Board of Directors, other elected officials including State Senator Ed Reilly, Delegate Heather Bagnall, County Councilman Andrew Pruski, Town Hall staff, and a gathering of interested residents who had been supportive of the effort.
CCA Board President Martin Simon said in his remarks, “The legislation about to be signed here represents a major step forward in answering the 33-year-old question – ‘What will become of Crofton’s Front yard?’. Since 1988, when this 7-acre parcel was converted to C-3 zoning, our residents have been waiting…and waiting…to see what would become of this land.
For thirty plus years, that decision has been in the hands of others, but now, we as a community will be able to make that decision, together!”.

This notice is to inform the residents of the Crofton Special Community Benefit District of mosquito control services that are being provided by the Maryland Department of Agriculture, in cooperation with the Anne Arundel County Government, for 2022.
The Crofton community will only ever be fogged on Tuesday nights during the 2022 season. Fogging can occur anytime between 7:00 PM and 2:30 AM. The fogging program will begin soon. The community will be notified once the date has been verified. The anticipated last day of mosquito fogging treatments is October 4.
Between April and October a County-wide surveillance and control of larval mosquitoes will be conducted. Surveillance and control of adult mosquitoes will be conducted beginning soon and will continue until October 4. For further information you may contact State Mosquito Control at

or at 410-841-5870.
Spraying for adult mosquitoes will be done only if an MDA employee determines it is necessary. The frequency of ULV spray treatments will be based on the level of mosquito infestation and the resources available. As noted above, the spraying night for Crofton will be Tuesday. Spraying will be done between 7:00 PM and 2:30 AM. Spraying will not be conducted if it is raining, the winds exceed 12 MPH or the temperature exceeds 89 degrees.
