AGP Executive Report
Last update: 30 minutes agoVeterans’ Housing: Maryland has closed financing for a $23 million expansion of Perry Point Veterans Village. The project will add 77 homes for veterans and families at risk of homelessness, more than doubling the community’s capacity. Energy Costs: The state opened applications for a $200 million clean-energy auction to support new power projects. More supply could ease electricity costs over time, but projects may take up to seven years to come online, so the program won’t lower bills soon. Midterm Elections: Early voting is drawing record interest, surpassing turnout from 2022. Voters will also decide Question 3, a proposed change to Maryland’s congressional map that has become a major campaign fight. Safe Drinking Water: Thurmont approved a nearly $3.5 million contract for PFAS filtration upgrades at its Hunting Creek water facility, with state forgivable loans helping fund the work. Elder Care: Maryland families facing problems at nursing homes can seek help from a local long-term-care ombudsman or the state Office of Health Care Quality.
