Del. Thomas Hattery D Frederick says he will introduce a statewide version of a bill to curb county commissioners power to condemn land for landfills. At a Frederick County meeting he noted opposition to condemning 230 acres owned by William and Kathleen Schrodel near Reichs Ford Road. The six member Frederick County delegation has not voted, and Hattery will not file without support. George Littrell backs the proposal and the measure would be an emergency bill.
