Maryland Stadium Authority - Sale of Shamrock Farms to Carroll County
SB 565 prohibits the Maryland Stadium Authority from selling Shamrock Farms (a specific property at 4926 Woodbine Road, Woodbine, MD 21797) except under defined conditions. It authorizes Carroll County Commissioners to purchase the property for $4,480,000 (adjusted for inflation) by July 1, 2029, with payment allowed in five annual installments using county funds or donations. The bill requires Carroll County to notify the Authority of its purchase intent by July 1, 2029, and transfers all rights and zoning authority over the property to Carroll County upon sale. This directly affects the Maryland Stadium Authority and Carroll County, setting specific terms for the property transfer.
