Fishing Creek Woes Drive Maryland Officials In Lewistown
Investigators from the Maryland Department of the Environment and Department of Natural Resources probe the death of an estimated 16,500 fish in a 14 mile stretch downstream of Fish Hatchery Road. Frederick County Health Department studies seek septic failures as residents oppose a planned sewage plant tied to an 81 home Sandower Builders development. A private plan by Tyler Quynn seeks to discharge 5000 gallons daily into Fishing Creek tributary, with a public meeting set for July 19 in the Lewistown Fire Hall.

Planners mull campus ATM with safety concerns
After an hour of debate the Frederick City Planning Commission postponed a decision on an amendment to allow an automatic teller machine on FCC grounds. The plan, a $75,000 outside ATM, sparked questions on safety and screening, with options for indoors use or campus-wide access discussed, while a zoning caveat and potential spreads to other sites were noted. Separately the commission approved a Seventh-day Adventist Church site plan on Md. 180, including highway work and lanes, drawing local objection over a planned crossing lane near Jefferson Pike.
