County Officials Vote to Pay Birds Rousting Bill in Graceham
County Commissioners Donald L. Lewis and John A. Derr voted to pay the $2,200 bill for rousting out Graceham birds, despite half the cost covered by the State Health Department. Lawrence A. Dorsey abstained citing potential conflict of interest, noting he owned a Woodsboro butcher shop, while Edgar Emrich, a meat inspector and Pine Grove resident, was involved. The abstention impressed Lewis as odd since Emrich was not owed the bill. The Catoctin and Frederick Soil Conservation Districts released a new map detailing proposed and approved subdivisions in the county. Frederick Mayor Ronald N. Young joined March of Dimes officials after signing up for the May 5 Walkathon.
