Kent Narrows Development Foundation

Mission and Vision

The Kent Narrows Development Foundation was created in May 1990 to facilitate the revitalization of the Kent Narrows, a 955-acre waterfront area, which has been identified as a strategically important asset for the future of Queen Anne’s County. The Foundation’s mission is to provide guidance and oversight for the formulation of a strategy to balance new economic growth, community redevelopment, support for the County’s fishing and seafood industries, and public access to waterfront activities and amenities.  The Foundation is also concerned that environmentally sensitive areas within the Kent Narrows be preserved and contribute to the character of the unique Eastern Shore community.

A list of Board members can be found on the Queen Anne's County website under Government: Board and Commissions.

The Kent Narrows Development Foundation meets the fourth Wednesday of every month, with the exception of July and December.  Meetings are held at the Chesapeake Exploration Center, 2:30 pm. For more information call the Department of Economic Development at (410)604-2100
