City moves to expand drug free zones and curb drug dealing
Local officials push to designate Frederick Head Start offices 520 N. Market St. and adjacent areas as a drug free zone extending 1000 feet to cover John Hanson and part of Taney public housing. A state law allowing projects to join zones could aid the effort, with an anti loitering measure also on the agenda. Officials say harsher penalties will deter dealers in Frederick.
