County Executive Craig to Introduce Legislation for Rain Tax Repeal

Harford County Executive David R. Craig announced today that he will
be introducing legislation in the County Council for a full repeal of
the county’s "Rain Tax."  The law, formally known as the “Stormwater
Management - Watershed Protection and Restoration Program,” stems from
the Obama Administration’s EPA mandate to reduce run off into the
Chesapeake Bay.  Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley signed the state
measure into law in 2012 with an estimated fiscal impact projected to
be a staggering $14.8 billion.
