EASTON, MARYLAND — Talbot County Planning Commission’s posted agenda for Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2026, sets a 9 a.m. meeting with a discussion briefing on extending the St. Michaels Nature Trail.

Item 5a names Phase II work to build a Trail Hub with parking, a future pavilion, and an extension of the St. Michaels Nature Trail for approximately 1.25 miles within the State Highway Administration right-of-way. A Nature Trail Master Plan Map is listed with that item.

The commission also strongly encourages written public comments by Friday, Oct. 2, 2026, to PublicComment [at] talbotcountymd.gov or by mail to the Department of Planning and Zoning, 215 Bay Street, Suite 2, Easton. Comments need a full name and address for the meeting record. Virtual viewing runs through the county’s Granicus streaming page linked from talbotcountymd.gov.

The same Oct. 7 agenda carries Comprehensive Water and Sewer Plan Resolutions 396, 397, and 398 under new business — separate from the Nature Trail discussion. A CompPlan work session on chapters of the 2016 plan update is also listed, with a pointer to engage.talbotcountymd.gov/compplan.
