5 acres at 2948 Faithful Road in Hamer from Light Industrial (ID1) to General Commercial (GC) to allow auto recycling with outdoor storage of salvage vehicles. The properties are owned by Matlock’s Used Cars & Parts, indicating a planned or expanded salvage and recycling operation at the site. While the agenda does not spell out county-funded work, such a zoning change often precedes site development, compliance measures, and potential infrastructure needs like access improvements or environmental controls.Vendors in site engineering, environmental services, stormwater, and traffic/access design may find opportunities working with either the county or the private owner as the project moves into permitting and development.

This is primarily a land use and private development signal; any county contracts would be associated infrastructure or permitting-related services.

Public Updates

The Carroll County Monocacy River Board will review the DNR Scenic and Wild Rivers Project, including the Otterdale Mill Road Solar item, at its August 20, 2026 meeting. The agenda shows this is a review item, not a decision or award. It is still useful as a signal of active oversight on a specific project that may generate follow-on permitting, design, or compliance work. The source gives no vendor selection or dollar value.

At its August 20, 2026 hearing the Gulfport Zoning Board reviewed a request from Randy Lampley at 12310 Cold Springs Rd for 2,441 square feet of accessory structures where 2,000 is allowed.
