Opinion

*23 PER CURIAM.

We granted certiorari on our own initiative in these three cases and consolidated them for argument to consider the validity of a Carroll County ordinance that imposed a one-year moratorium on the processing of residential development plans. By the time we were able to hear the case, however, the moratorium had expired and was not renewed. The issue we took the cases to decide is therefore moot, and there is no indication that it is likely to recur in any kind of similar factual setting, as the basis for the moratorium has, itself, been dealt with by subsequent county legislation. We shall therefore dismiss these appeals.
