Nash defends annexation vote on Schley Farm plan
Alderman Nash rejected critics who called her 1997 annexation vote flawed over Schley Farm, a 124 acre tract to add housing and M-1 zoned business. She said APFO is one tool, planning commission can weigh land use and parks and schools, and the phased plan 1999 to 2003 reflects mixed development with school considerations to be addressed later.

Frederick County and City Move to Bond 4 Million for Jobs Pathway
Frederick County and city officials agreed to bond fund four million dollars to accelerate the boulevard project. With only three of five aldermen present, votes raised questions about Mr Grimes’s fate on the board. The plan could render the 1988 annexation agreement moot, pending written amendments. The workshop also directed studies on business signs policy, an NMCM lease amendment, water shutoff ramifications for six Mountaindale households, and potential use of 1448 open-space acres near Maryland and Sager avenues.
