• 'Pure chaos': Baltimore County moves to crack down on commercial house parties (foxbaltimore.com) — Catonsville residents may soon see stricter rules on large commercial pool parties after a summer of noisy, crowded events that neighbors say brought trash, trespassing, and safety concerns to their streets. Baltimore County's proposed legislation would ban for‑profit, publicly advertised house parties at residential properties, with fines up to $5,000 and enforcement by county police, while still allowing traditional private gatherings and permitted nonprofit events.
