The Caroline County Board of Commissioners held a legislative session on April 15 and enacted two county bills after public notice and prior readings.

Legislative Bill 2025‑003: The bill revises chapter language governing the membership and removal provisions for the Board of Zoning Appeals and removes locally imposed term limits for BZA members while preserving reappointment by the commissioners. County legal staff said the change aligns the local ordinance with recent state statutory language regarding removal procedures. The commissioners enacted the bill by voice vote after a brief discussion; the bill was made an emergency act in the record.

Legislative Bill 2025‑004: This bill amends the county table of uses to change how wastewater treatment facilities are classified in certain zoning districts. It narrows the definition of facilities that qualify as wastewater treatment facilities and adjusts where accessory and non‑accessory facilities are permitted or subject to special use exception in R (rural), I‑2 (light industrial) and MH (mobile home) districts. The board held a public hearing previously; the third reading was enacted by voice vote and recorded as an emergency bill.

Both enactments were recorded without a roll‑call tally in the meeting transcript; in each case a motion and second were made and commissioners approved the measures by voice vote. County staff indicated no public opposition had been filed for the bills prior to third reading.

Text of both adopted bills will be available in the county legislative record and in the clerk’s office.
