Parkside Preserve (Reserve at Quiet Waters)

For the past five years, a total of seven (7) CLA volunteer attorneys assisted the Annapolis Neck Peninsula Federation (ANPF) to ensure that the proposed Parkside Preserve development in Annapolis would not move forward in violation of state and local laws. As a result, the City of Annapolis is planning to purchase 4.4 acres of forest next to Quiet Waters Park and permanently protect the land, which will be open to the public. In addition, CLA attorneys and ANPF have highlighted the importance of the Forest Conservation Act for the City, resulting in recent amendments to the Annapolis City ordinance implementing the FCA. Parkside Preserve will now be developed in accordance with state and local laws, and this action has reduced the impact of the development.
