Recent flooding sets stage for hearings on $90M Annapolis climate project

No one likes a zoning hearing. That’s a fact. No journalist ever relished one, no lawyer rubbed his hands in glee and no nervous property owner ever, ever wished for endless hours of talk about land-use law. Which leads me to an interesting question. Does Gavin Buckley control the weather? If you wanted to focus the public’s mind on a zoning hearing, it would be the one that starts Thursday. The Annapolis Planning Commission will hold the first of two hearings on the largest public works projects in city history.
