Local residents embraced the concept of Turf Valley Town Square and testified in favor of Council Bill 58 -- a bill to increase the square footage for the center's anchor grocery store, planned to be a Harris Teeter. Without the change, the planned grocery store was limited to 1/3 the size of the typical Howard County food store.
The bill was passed unanimously by the County Council and Planning Board, yet a handful of opponents with unclear agendas are working to bring this neighborhood store square footage change to countywide referendum.
