Planners mull signs to guide hidden Frederick businesses
Frederick planners weigh allowing directional signs for hidden businesses after the January zoning change banned new billboards. Golden Dome photo processing seeks a sign to draw highway traffic, arguing it would aid customers while limiting size and placement. The planning commission and later the Board of Aldermen will decide on an amendment, with safeguards on sign area and distance. Meanwhile a Wally Byam Caravan Club rally draws visitors to Walkersville Carnival Grounds this weekend.

Metro lengthens Sunday hours and faces funding pressure
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority approved a 456 million dollar budget for the 198 fiscal year to lengthen Metrorail hours on Sundays and fund the first year of subway service into Fairfax County Virginia without raising fares. Officials warned fare increases or service cuts may follow amid federal construction funding cuts and debates over equity of local contributions. A consultant will review the funding formula over the next year. The system will stay open until midnight on Sundays, aiding travelers to Reagan National Airport and Amtrak stations.
