Our thoughts and prayers go out to the wonderful Spruce Forest Artisan Village in Grantsville. A severe storm tore through and dropped several trees and caused building damage. Our friend Regina Holliday has started a Go Fund Me to help rebuild if you’re so inclined.
The Garrett County Commissioners released several pieces of news yesterday. A recording of the public meeting is online and more details were released regarding the offer of an Accommodations Tax Deferral for businesses, groups, and individuals who have had to pause vacation rentals due to COVID-19 and the purchase of a building for the Emergency Operations Center.
The Commissioners also are reminding visitors coming to Garrett County, or returning to their home, that all are required to self-quarantine.
