The below Bylaw change regarding teleconference/vidoe conference board meetings was approved during the annual meeting:

Section 2.1 will be added to Article VII Meetings of the CBCA By-laws to authorize 

teleconference board meetings: 

Article VII Meetings 

Section 2.1 The Board of Directors is authorized to hold board meetings by teleconference, 

videoconference, or other electronic means of communication, provided that all participating 

board directors attending the meeting can hear one another simultaneously and participate fully 

in the meeting. 

If any board member or member of the association wishes to attend a board meeting in person, 

they must notify the Board of Directors either by email or telephonically, at least 1 week prior to 

the scheduled meeting time. 

Teleconference board meetings may be conducted only if no association member has provided 

timely notification, as described in Section 2, expressing their wish to attend the meeting in 

person. If such notification is received, the meeting shall be held in person at a designated 

location, with the option for individual board of directors to attend remotely if they cannot attend 

in-person. 

The meeting notice provided to all board members shall indicate whether the meeting will be held 

by teleconference or in person and shall include instructions for accessing the meeting 

electronically if applicable. 

The minutes of the meeting shall reflect the mode of attendance of each board member (in 

person or by teleconference). 

Thank you again for those who took time to attend the annual meeting and to all the members who voted by proxy ballots. Congratulations again to the members who were elected/re-elected to the board, I look forward to serving on the board with you, during this coming year.

Chesapeake Bay Critical Area and Critical Area Buffer

The Chesapeake Bay Critical Area Protection Act, passed in 1984, was significant and far-reaching, and marked the first time that the State and local governments jointly addressed the impacts of land development on habitat and aquatic resources. Calvert County adopted the local Critical Area Program in December 1988 to implement the requirements of the Maryland State Critical Area Act.

The law identified the "Critical Area" as all land within 1,000 feet of the mean high water line of tidal waters or the landward edge of tidal wetlands, and all waters of and lands under the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. For Calvert County, that includes the Patuxent River.  A statewide Critical Area Commission (CAC) was created to oversee the development and implementation of local land use programs.

Critical Area Maps delineating the Critical Area have been formally approved as part of Calvert County’s Critical Area Program and are available online and in the office of Planning & Zoning.  Zoning regulations governing the Critical Area in Calvert County can be found in Article 8 of the Calvert County Zoning Ordinance.
