The Montgomery County Council’s ECON Committee will meet March 23 at 9:30 am to review Bill 7-26, which would clarify that agricultural permitting exemptions include farm business operations and product processing. The bill aims to reduce regulatory burdens but would still require permits for buildings where the public consumes food or beverages.
The members of the ECON Committee include Chair and Council President Natali Fani-González, Council Vice President Marilyn Balcombe and Councilmembers Evan Glass and Laurie-Anne Sayles.
