This is a Maryland Department of Planning hosted service.Priority Funding Areas are existing communities and places where local governments want State investment to support future growth. The 1997 Priority Funding Areas Act capitalizes on the influence of State expenditures on economic growth and development. Funding for projects in municipalities - other existing communities - industrial areas - and planned growth areas designated by counties receive priority State funding over other projects.
