“Thanks, Commissioner Gordon. That's good stuff. I appreciate it. I have one more thing. You just brought it to mind. Maybe while we're doing the recordation taxes, I had some questions about the impact fees and how they're – I don't know if you've looked at these lately, but how they're decided, how they're – who they're – I noticed accidentally that they're being charged for these retirement homes in villages. They have the highest – they have the highest impact fee and they have no impact on schools. And I didn't think you could do that. So anyway, I'd just like to understand that while…”

“I just have a question about open space money in general. So the towns get their own open space money, and then we get open space money. How does that work?”

“OK. You're most welcome. I just had a question about staffing. So how do you determine staffing? I just noticed they're different. So is it by how many people they serve, how many programs? How is that determined?”

“Well, I just was looking. It seemed like there's 11. You said there were 11. One, two, three, four. So they all have a part-time and a full-time.”

“So why is the only one that doesn't have a part time is Freedom. That's the biggest.”

“Well, that's why I was wondering. I guess we've sort of been waiting for the allocation, the report about numbers of people in the programs. Is that going to come?”

“Oh, that's this. OK. So I didn't know if it was based on that, because there are a lot of different. You have different volumes of people to take care of. That's why I didn't know if you based it on volume or you based it just on everybody gets the same thing, no matter what the volume. OK.”

“There's a question on this slide. Yeah. So the first one says all citizens in Carroll County who meet the . How do we do it? Some of these councils have people from other counties playing. How do you prioritize the Carroll County citizens versus somebody from the other counties? He runs on the border. I mean, I know Mount Airy has some overflow, and I know we have some.”
Board of County Commissioners · Sep 3, 2026

“Do we have a problem that some folks can't get in? I just thought I remember at one of your events somebody was having a challenge. Because Mount Airy is part in Carroll and part in Frederick County. And we want to make sure that. The Carroll County citizens all have a chance to have an opportunity.”

“Unless they want to share some fields in Frederick County. We have the opposite problem. We don't have enough fields, so our kids are going to Howard County. And I guess they've got plenty to welcome us, because I don't know that people are getting turned away.”
Board of County Commissioners · Sep 3, 2026

“So their citizens come in and use our fields, and we don't charge them extra, but we have to pay to use their fields? It seems like if we're going to open registration to their folks, it's usually higher registration to cover what we have to get their fields for.”
Board of County Commissioners · Sep 3, 2026
- Play at 1:28:34
“I'm just suggesting that if you If we're going to welcome those folks in, they shouldn't charge us for the fields. Anyway, that's up to them, but we're going to make sure.”

“We don't charge for our gym space. That's what I'm saying. We don't charge. I understand what you're saying.”

“I don't know about the rec councils, but I do know in Howard County they have a resident discount, they call it, for the adult. I know we have a lot of people that play pickleball that come from Howard County and Baltimore County. But in Howard County, you look up their places. First of all, they're more expensive. But they call it a discount, which is charging people out of county more. They have a discount for in county.”

“No, you understand what I'm saying. I just think you've got to make sure that we've got limited space. And if they're going to charge us for it, you want to make sure that we're getting some equity. Equity back. It shouldn't be for the student necessarily, but maybe it would incentivize the county We don't have to charge them. We're in some ways accounting to not have to charge us for the fields.”

“Can I ask you a question about some of these? Yes. So on these schools, they're obviously all different. I know there's some that have. Childcare. They do daycare. Correct. And they use their gym, so they can't get in.”

“So how do you balance that out? Let's say basketball season. How do you know if there's really availability for the programs for the council? Because if the school has daycare, and let's say the daycare lasts until 6.30 instead of 6, or I don't know the timing, but you haven't done this for so long. I don't have long practice. Let's say practice is an hour. So how does that work?”
