I had to go down to the library near Wildwood and get a site plan then submit that with the location marked, plus a form that ARC gives you to fill out. My advice would be to go over to the ARC office in Laural Manner with the site map and they will help you with it. As far as the install goes The Flag Store on 441 did mine but I bought the pole from them. I'm sure you can find a handyman to install it.

As another poster mentioned you need to illuminate it or you should take the flag down every night. I used a Annin Solar Light sold by Amazon for $49. I've had the light installed for 2 years and it works great. It just screws to the top of the pole. Very easy to install.
