New Market to appeal annexation ruling on 140 acre area
The New Market town council voted 3 2 to appeal a Frederick County Circuit Court decision voiding the town’s 140 acre annexation plan. Mayor Frank Shaw said residents favor the move while developers oppose it, noting the project could triple the town population and cost around $12,000 so far in legal fees. The council also approved a public works agreement with Kettler Brothers to build a water system for Mechanics Addition, enabling the town to eventually take over the lines and gain a town controlled water supply.
