| The Millington Public Drainage Association was established in 1973 to maintain the Public Tax Drainage Ditch that is approximately 3,433 feet in length. This ditch is located in the north part of the town and runs from the railroad track, under Sassafras Street, flowing into the stream located behind Robvanary Park. This ditch provides drainage for approximately 25% of the total population within Town limits. This Association is regulated by Article 25 of the Maryland Drainage Law. The Association meets on an annual basis to elect managers, review tax income and maintenance liability, review plan activity from the previous year, determine plan activity for the upcoming year, and prepare for approval an Operation and Maintenance Plan for the upcoming year. The public tax ditch is inspected on an annual basis as well as after severe storms. The Association works in conjunction with Kent Soil Conservation, Maryland Department of Agriculture, Department of Natural Resources, and Critical Areas Commission. The managers for the Millington Public Drainage Association for 2010: Patricia Cartagena-Santiago Lewis Teat Elizabeth Jo Downey-Manning As property owners that reside along this ditch, it is your responsibility to avoid any obstruction in any way to the ditch or drain. If obstruction occurs property owner shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and fined not to exceed $500 per offense. Therefore all property owners should avoid the disposal of grass cuttings, old shrubs, cleared soil, miscellaneous trash, etc from the drainage ditch. If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact any of the Public Drainage Association Managers or the Town Office.
