Quiet Waters Park Expansion Update
Anne Arundel County purchased this Quiet Waters expansion property 5 years ago for approximately $8 million ($6 million in public funds and $2 million from a generous donation of the Earl family). A few years ago, the plans for a private office building in the Quiet Waters Park 19-acre expansion were canceled. As a result, a citizen’s stakeholders’ group was formed by the county.
The 11-member stakeholder group has met twice. At the most recent meeting we were presented with three conceptual plans for the park expansion. We have been tasked with getting feedback on these plans from our respective communities. Your input is needed! These three options are not set in stone.
You can view all the plans in the survey below, along with a summary of major elements of each plan and the full descriptions. Printed copies will be available at the General Meeting on November 14. Survey includes a modified plan based on input by the Friends of Quiet Waters Park, Annapolis Neck Peninsula Federation, and Hillsmere residents.
These comments will be presented to the county at the third and final stakeholder meeting on December 7. The Department of Recreation and Parks will make the final decision based on your comments.
