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 Meeting:  September 11, 2025 @7PM

Find out what’s happening at our local county parks from Ben Porter, Chief of Parks, and Drew Emmer, Chief, Capital Planning and Development. They will talk about upgrades in the works for Miami Beach, plus the much-anticipated planning for the Carroll Island Waterfront Park (formerly the C. P. Crane Power Plant). Share your ideas for both parks with the Baltimore County officials who oversee them. See you there!
