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!”.
