  • Merriweather Post Pavilion
    Citizen Advisory Panel on Merriweather Post Pavilion Final Report Introduction On August 12, 2004, County Executive Jim Robey signed Executive Order No. 2004-03 (attached as Appendix 1), which appointed 16 leaders of the business and arts communities in Howard County to serve on the Merriweather Citizens Advisory Panel (the Panel). He asked the Panel to advise him on whether Howard County (the County) should purchase Merriweather Post Pavilion from The Rouse Company (now General Growth Properties (GGP)), which had announced that Merriweather was for sale provided that the purchaser agrees to meet certain provisions. He asked the Panel to answer five questions: 1. Is there a public service purpose for Howard County to purchase Merriweather Post Pavilion? 2. If there is a public service purpose for the County to purchase Merriweather, what should be the primary purpose of the facility (e.g., a concert venue, an all-purpose arts facility, etc.), what other activities should be permitted and what organizations should have access? 3. Does Merriweather need to be renovated, and if so what type and scope of renovation would be necessary for it to most successfully and effectively achieve the determined primary purpose? 4. What type of management and control structure should be put into place for the operation of this facility? 5. What level of public oversight should exist? In addition, the County solicited proposals for consultant services for a “Feasibility study associated with the possible purchase and renovation of Merriweather Post Pavilion.” The County received five proposals it deemed to be acceptable. Following interviews with the firms that submitted those proposals, the County hired the team of Ziger/Snead LLP Architects, Webb Management Services, Inc.

  • Village Center Master Plan Fall 2011 Master Plan Committee Members Paul A
    Long Reach Community Association 8775 Cloudleap Court Columbia MD 21045 410/730-8113 410/730-5882 FAX [email protected] Village Center Master Plan Fall 2011 Master Plan Committee Members Paul A. Bernard Edward T. Coleman Henry F. Dagenais James P. Howard II Long Reach Board of Directors Karen S. Hitcho, Chair Josh Friedman, Vice Chair Nina Basu William A. Taylor Matthew Watchinski This report is meant to be used as a guide. Our master plan covers only our vision. It is premature to put in details of a design plan when there is no redevelopment in the near future. We would want a design that is current with the industry standards and meets the needs of the community at the time when we are actually working with a redevelopment of the village center. The Purpose Of This Report The Howard County Council amended its developmental regulations and passed Council Bill 29-2009 which allows each village to develop a Village Center Community Plan. In addition, CB 29-2009 allows the owner of any portion of a village center in the New Town zoning district to petition to amend certain approved development plans for the owners’ properties and establishes public notice, information, and justification requirements for such petition. It also establishes standards to be used by the Zoning Board in evaluating and considering these petitions. This regulation defines a village center as a mixed-use development in the New Town district that is designed to be a “community focal point and gathering place for the surrounding village neighborhoods.” This plan is intended to provide guidance from the Village of Long Reach to the County and developers on the vision and planning concepts that are desired by the Long Reach Community Association as the village area changes over time.
