Limiting liquor licenses proposed by Frederick County dealers
Frederick County delegation unanimously backed a bill to cut liquor licenses by about half, shifting the per capita ratio from one per 2,000 to one per 4,000 people across 20 districts. Liquor Store Association President Bob Smith urged approval, arguing existing licenses fail to reflect growth since the 1990 census and that reduced caps curb illegal sales and aid enforcement. The bill passed 8-0 along with six other local measures, with one delegate opposing repeals of a licensing requirement.

Governor unveils first Maryland budget totaling 14.53 billion
Governor Parris Glendening submitted his first budget totaling 14.53 billion, cutting predecessor Schaefer's plan by 234 million and lifting Medicaid abortion restrictions. The proposal boosts 1996 spending by 655 million, raises Frederick County aid above 100 million, and outlines four year priorities including education and safe communities, with reserves for federal cuts and a 1997 shortfall. It calls for eliminating the Direct Assistance and Loan Program to save 48 million.
