Plan revived to save beaches at Ocean City
Ocean City plans to restore its coastline with state funding covering one third of the cost after the Army Corps of Engineers dropped offshore sand pumping. Col. G K Withers said the state’s commitment arrived in a letter from James B Coulter, secretary of Natural Resources, and local officials had previously refused to cover its share.

Consumers win some, lose some in session
In Annapolis, consumer groups won new controls on fuel rate adjustment and on the home improvement industry, but many bills were killed in committee. Leaders cited lack of lobbying equality, while praise went to Del. Frank Santangela for shepherding the home improvement bill, which expands protections for homeowners and tightens contractor supervision.
