One of my favorite parts of summer is going to the Farmers' Market on Friday nights at North Beach, MD. There's food, drinks, music, classic cars, beautiful views, and we always run into friends. Definitely need to check it out if you haven't been there already. They're open until October 6 from 6-9pm.<br />

My office, EXIT 1 Stop Realty is doing a drive to collect school supplies for students in need in our county. I collected donations from the Apple Greene Subdivision in Dunkirk and was so proud of how many items I collected. It was great to also have my children help me in the collection process and see the good they can do too. I've been fortunate enough to have residents of the county all me to help them buy and sell their homes and I was happy to give back. If you'd like to drop off donations our office is collecting supplies until August 31: You can drop them off Monday-Friday 9am-5pm to 10130 Southern Md Blvd. Dunkirk, MD<br />

Currently, it wouldn't be allowed under the present zoning but could obtain a special exemption. The DACCA Board is looking for feedback from the community. Make sure if you live in Dunkirk and have an opinion about, that you reach out to DACCA and voice your opinion. In addition, there will be a public hearing at the The Calvert County Board of Appeals on Thursday January 5th.

First, law enforcement from the Calvert County sheriff's office came in to do some active shooter training. The training was informative and gave good advice about what to do in various scenarios.<br />
Following the law enforcement presentation, County Commissioner Evan Slaughenhoupt, spoke about a variety of issues of concern. His first talking point was in regards to the historic Flag Barn that is located along Route 4 in Owings. The land that the barn currently sits on is in the process of being developed for commercial use, so the barn needs to go. As the barn is an important landmark in the county, local artist Terry Quinn, has offered to raise money to have the barn moved to property that has been donated to the county so the barn can have a new home along Route 4. If you would like to help in this endeavor to save a Calvert landmark you may go to <a href="http://www.rt4barn.com/" target="_blank">http://www.rt4barn.com/</a><br />
Next on the agenda was an update to the Ward Road park that is in development. The park will be located on 200 acres and will include trails, a dog park, and a variety of ball fields. The project will be completed in phases and the first phase will include roads, bathroom facilities, and the trails. The Commissioner said this portion of the project would be finished in a few years.<br />
Then there was an explanation of the communications towers that would be built in the county. The Commissioner explained that these towers are a matter of public safety and need to be installed to assist law enforcement making calls. He explained that there are currently areas of the county that when the police need backup assistance they simply don't have radio contact because of a lack of communications towers, which is unacceptable. The additional benefit of these towers is they will be county owned and will generate income for the county.<br />
Finally, he discussed the tax increase to county residents. He explained that the county has been struggling to make ends meet since the Great Recession occurred in 2008. At the time of the recession the county had a surplus of funds to draw from previous years but these funds are dwindling. In addition to the still sluggish economy, the state has taken away nearly 10 million dollars in funding during those years and the county has to make up for the cuts to the budget. The last time taxes were raised was in 1992 and in order to continue to provide the services our citizens need the taxes had to be raised.Katie McVickerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01884438248319329910noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115284677661822615.post-62008602260256929312016-10-11T08:35:00.003-07:002016-10-11T08:35:55.066-07:00Down Payment Assistance ProgramsNow is a great time to buy a home. Interest rates are low and depending on your debt-to-income ratio, your credit score, and other earning and buying criteria, you can get 3-4.5% down payment help. When you are looking to buy a home it's so important to explore your options to find the loan that best fits you. <br />

Too bad it's been raining for days and continues to rain. Maybe the sun will come out though and give people a chance to go out and enjoy all the fun. The fair is a great little slice of the culture of Calvert. Check out the link to the fair to learn about times, prices, and the history of fair. <br />

The community members were told that the anchor store has been set to be a Harris Teeter. The surrounding 20, or so, stores are still unannounced. The community expressed continued concern about how the development will impact traffic, noise, and visibility from homes. Currently, the community will not be connected to the shops by a roadway, but that decision is not in the hands of the developer since the property that would be used as a connector road is not part of the development. Construction is set to begin spring of 2017. What are your thoughts on the Shoppes?Katie McVickerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01884438248319329910noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115284677661822615.post-16901640350367885942016-09-29T04:00:00.003-07:002016-09-29T04:00:33.778-07:00WelcomeHi, My name is Katie McVicker and I am a real estate agent for EXIT 1 Stop Realty in Dunkirk, MD.
