LOCAL PROJECTS TO RECEIVE PROGRAM OPEN SPACE FUNDING

Program Open Space is providing $2 million in funding for various projects around the county. All 25 projects that were submitted will receive funding. Included are $225,000 for enhancements to the Allegany College of Maryland baseball field, $180,000 for improvements for the Allegany High School athletic field, and upgrades to the Lonaconing Little League Park. At last week’s meeting, the Allegany County Commissioners voted unanimously to make the allocations for the 25 projects.
