The Commissioners recently voted to b e g i n  a relationship with ParkMobile to collect fees for parking. This is amobile app. We have four different zones in town. Y o u r p a r k i n g permit stickers will preclude you from getting a ticket if you park in any of the spots in town that are in the ParkMobile zones. One of the zones included is the boat launch. You may now pay your fees for daily launch by the honor box or by using the ParkMobile app. The fee for launching by the honor box will remain at $10.00 cash or check. The ParkMobile cost is $10.35. Your yearly stickers are still honored as well.

The bulk service collection day is scheduled for the last Wednesday of August 2020. Bulk collections will only be approved for those residents who have called the Town Hall and scheduled a collection appointment. In order to assure your bulk item is collected, call the Town Hall, 410-287-6173, by 9am the day before the scheduled collection day. Bulk trash is intended for residents who need to dispose of a few large items, if you have more than that, you should find other means to take your items to the landfill.  In addition we cannot take construction materials.
