Maryland Stadium Authority - Sale of Shamrock Farms to Carroll County
HB 1215 allows Carroll County to purchase Shamrock Farms (a specific property at 4926 Woodbine Road, Woodbine, MD) from the Maryland Stadium Authority for $4,480,000 (adjusted for inflation). It requires Carroll County Commissioners to notify the Authority of their intent to buy by July 1, 2029, and permits payment in five annual installments using county funds or donations. The bill amends state laws to prohibit the Stadium Authority from selling the property except under these terms and transfers all rights (including zoning authority) to Carroll County upon sale. This directly affects the Stadium Authority as the seller and Carroll County as the buyer.
