Dear Community Leaders and Members of Anne Arundel County,

I am happy to report that over 20% of Anne Arundel residents are fully vaccinated. However, it is still important to wear your mask and continue to distance. Please use the button below to access this week's report where you'll find links to relevant information concerning vaccination.

Director, CECS

County Executive Steuart Pittman and Mayor Gavin Buckley announced today a collaborative effort to ensure county residents can access transportation to and from the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium mass vaccination site. 

County Executive Steuart Pittman and Kathleen Koch, Executive Director, Arundel Community Development Services, Inc. (ACDS) lauded the extension of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) federal moratorium on evictions for Failure to Pay Rent through June 30, 2021, and they urge tenants and landlords to use this additional time to take advantage of the County’s Emergency Eviction Program. They asked that landlords refrain from evicting tenants for other reasons, such as failure to renew leases in the meantime.
