Arts school proposal met with resistance
Middletown residents oppose the Lucy School proposal by Victoria Brown and Christopher Zachariadis to convert a 6 acre farm at 9117 Frostown Road into an arts oriented preschool and teacher training site. They fear disruption, traffic, and impact on Middletown Creek while Brown cites nature based learning and preservation of the farm. The Frederick County Board of Appeals will hear testimony on December 18 at Winchester Hall.
