The Mount Airy Board of Appeals is set to hold a public hearing on Thursday, July 23, 2026, at 7 p.m. The meeting will take place at the Mount Airy Town Hall, located at 110 S. Main St. This session will allow residents to voice their opinions on a specific case that has significant implications for local zoning regulations.

The primary agenda item is CASE NO. MA-BOA-2026-02, which seeks a Special Exception for a Home Occupation, specifically a licensed home daycare, on the property at 1412 Summer Sweet Lane. This property falls within the R2 District, and the outcome of this hearing could set a precedent for similar home-based businesses in the area.

All citizens are encouraged to attend and participate in the discussion. Community engagement is vital in shaping local policies, and this hearing presents an opportunity for residents to influence decisions that affect their neighborhood. For further inquiries, residents can reach out to John Breeding at jbreeding@mountairymd.gov.
