About the BQIA......In 1938, with concern over the increasing year round population and development on the peninsula, the Bowleys Quarters Improvement Association (BQIA) was incorporated by a group of property owners. Its hope was “to promote and assure consented activity in all matters pertaining to the proper development; improvement; and maintenance of that portion of Baltimore County known as Bowleys Quarters and vicinity thereof”. Since 1938, the BQIA has been actively addressing water and sewerage issues, population growth, zoning, development, watershed protection, Martin State Airport noise and traffic, road and drainage maintenance, public services, air and water quality, and any issues that may impact the integrity of the area. All on a volunteer basis. We invite you to join us at one of our monthly meetings and get involved in our community. | Next BQIA General Meeting: THURSDAY, September 10, 2026 @7PM Our October 8th speaker will be Tom Zeller, Master Gardener with the University of Maryland Cooperative Extension Service. He will be addressing the impact of the invasive Spotted Lanternfly on plants, particularly trees and vineyards in central Maryland. How we can help with identification, reporting, and sustainable management will be discussed. Note: A portion of our meeting will be spent determining your wants, needs, and wishes for the 10/15 community input meeting regarding Carroll Island Park. There are still some seats remaining for the Italian Dinner, if interested. See your Dock Line for additional information. |
