The Transportation and Environment (TE) committee voted 2-1 on June 21, 2025 to remove the Midcounty Highway Extended (M-83) project from the 2025 Technical Update to the Master Plan of Highways and Transitways, consistent with the Planning Board's recommendation. Councilmember Balcombe cast the dissenting vote, citing concerns about impacts to Clarksburg and Upcounty communities. The plan moves to the full County Council for consideration.
