(a) Acceptance of donation. In addition to its authority to purchase easements under this subtitle, the County or the County's designee may accept the donation of an easement or other interest in property for agricultural land or woodland preservation purposes.
(b) When prohibited. The County may not accept the grant of a gift of residual interest in a property on which the County has accepted an easement or of a life estate or of any interest that would result in the merger of the easement with the gift and thereby extinguish the easement held by the County.
