We have been informed that the opportunity to buy-down lake front property adjacent to property you own is still in effect. Following is the information we received:
"A request by the Department of Natural Resources to re-authorize Secretaries of DGS, DNR, or their designees to execute deeds and associated documents for the sale of
Deep Creek Lake buy-down parcels. The buy-down program offers owners of property adjoining Deep Creek Lake the right to purchase State land adjacent to their property. The property will be sold for $0.39/sq. ft. plus expenses for title, survey and the State's $250 administrative fee. The sale of the parcels will be subject to a conservation easement that retains the character of Deep Creek Lake (Item 8-RP of the Department of General Services' Agenda);"
If you wish to take advantage of this opportunity you may contact the StateDepartment of General Services (DGS). The contact there is Tanja Rucci at 410-767-4303, tanja.rucci@maryland.gov.
