Hagerstown Chamber Opposes Federal School Aid Plan
The Hagerstown Chamber of Commerce voted against federal aid for school construction, arguing it shifts Maryland funds to other states. They claim the proposed $4,381.60 yearly grant for five years would cost Maryland taxpayers about £5,799,909 annually and reduce state facility funding by roughly $1.464 million per year. The group favors using funds locally to improve Maryland classrooms and facilities. In other notes, Lincoln Playground hosted Button Night with prizes for largest and smallest buttons and plans for a magic show by Mr. Hagan next week.
