Last minute filers seek tax deadline relief via Form 4868
The IRS sees about 6.25 million relief requests for an automatic extension to August 15, with filers needing to estimate taxes and send a check. About 107 million individual returns are expected, 37 million came in by April 22, and refunds average $825. The new tax law raised errors and altered deductions, reducing several breaks while lowering top rates. Two-earner couples lose a $4,000 deduction, and some pension-related writeoffs were cut or removed.

Helicopter Applicators seek local site as airport plans delay
The firm wants to base chemical spraying at the Sheiss property arguing transport costs and fuel waste. Opponents cite a drawn out dispute with the Board of Appeals which restricted takeoffs and landings, with a six month extension granted and a $100 citation unpaid. County officials fear relocation if they cannot operate locally until Frederick airport expansion is finished. State agriculture officials praise the firm as skilled aerial applicators serving about 20 licensed crop sprayers in Maryland. Local farmers and Farm Bureau leaders stress the service is needed by 50 to 100 Frederick County and Eastern Shore producers.
