The Queen's County Commissioners held a public meeting on September 8, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key procurement actions included the approval of the final property transfer of the former Board of Education administration building back to the county, and the execution of an estoppel certificate related to a solar power purchase agreement with Next Amp in Cecil County. The commissioners also approved a special benefit assessment levy for Southern Kent Island Phase 3 properties and granted sewer and water allocation to DNF Development LLC for an 82-unit residential development, with a required deposit of $1,328,400. Additionally, a cooperative agreement was approved with the town of Barlay for rental housing inspections, and a motion was passed to establish a golf cart usage committee to review requests for golf cart use on county roads, including Prospect Bay. Economic development incentives were discussed, including a $1,750 training grant for the Mill of Kingtown and a referral of a $12 million development review fee waiver request from KRM Development Corporation to the Economic Development Commission. The meeting also featured presentations on detention center updates and library programs, but no direct procurement decisions were made in those areas.
