Carroll County Commissioners Hire Legislative Liaison
Westminster, MD, Thursday, January 4,
2018 – The Carroll County Board
of Commissioners (BCC) is pleased to announce Mr. Michael Fowler as the new
Carroll County Legislative Liaison. The position is a full-time, contractual
position from January through April 2018 to cover the 2018 State of Maryland
Legislative Session.
The BCC recognizes the importance of having an
active role in the state legislative process. Mr. Fowler will be the eyes and
ears of the board and will direct the county’s federal and state
intergovernmental relations program. The
liaison serves as the principal contact with state and federal officials and is
Carroll County’s chief spokesperson and advocate for relevant bills and
initiatives. The position will operate primarily from Annapolis and work
closely with the Carroll County Delegation of Senators and Delegates
coordinating information between the state and county. Regular updates will be
presented in person, by phone and email to the BOC and its staff.
Mr.
Fowler retired from Baltimore Gas & Electric (BGE) 2017 after nearly 40
years of service. His most recent experience includes 14 years in the role of
External Affairs Manager, acting as BGE's liaison to county and municipal governments
and communities in Carroll, Frederick, Howard, Prince George's and Montgomery
Counties. In addition, prior BGE roles include construction, operations,
engineering and design, and environmental affairs. Mr. Fowler also previously served
on the boards of directors for several local chambers of commerce, including Carroll
and Howard Counties. He holds a B.S. in Business Management from University of
Maryland University College.
The legislative liaison is critical as State
of Maryland legislation can significantly impact the finances of Carroll County
Government, Carroll County Public Schools and other local organizations. With a
very busy, fast-paced legislative session, this person will be the conduit of
information between the Delegation and the County Commissioners and will
advocate for Carroll County.
Mr. Fowler will begin his position on
Thursday, January 4, 2018.
