County to register complaint on zoning bill in Annapolis
Frederick County commissioners plan to tell State Senators on Friday why they oppose a bill requiring referenda for zoning changes. Commissioner President David Gray will testify in Annapolis before the Education Health and Environmental Affairs Committee, arguing the process lacked a public hearing. The panel is expected to advance the bill with support from Meoney and Ferguson, making official opposition unlikely.
