ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Sites in the city of Aberdeen and in Howard County have been added to a Maryland program to help build infrastructure for incoming military jobs. Maryland is preparing for an influx of up to 60,000 jobs by 2015 as part of the military base realignment and closure process, which is also known as BRAC. Under the "BRAC Zones" plan, the state will provide tax credits to encourage development. Aberdeen's zone includes the 800,000-square-foot Class A North Gate Business Park. Howard County's zone includes the 13-acre project called "Savage Towne Centre." The five other areas previously announced are in Baltimore, Odenton in Anne Arundel County, land near Andrews Air Force Base, an area in historic Frederick and an area in the city of Laurel.
