Maryland to fund new West Patrick Street bridge over Carroll Creek
The Maryland Department of Transportation will contribute 1.2 million to replace the 1926 steel bridge as part of the Carroll Creek Linear Park project. Construction could start late this year and take two years, with traffic detours and staged street closures on West Patrick and Bentz streets. The city may cover about 100000, RK&K Engineers plan traffic detours, and state highway funding stems from Md 144. Secretary Trainor credited Rep James McClellan for arranging the deal.

Monocacy river plan endorsed by Frederick County leaders
Frederick County Commissioners backed the Monocacy Scenic River Study and Management Plan on Tuesday. The plan moves to the Scenic River Review Board in Annapolis and the General Assembly for approval, with final signoffs needed from Frederick and Carroll counties. It proposes a river corridor overlay of 500 feet on both sides, limits on slope use and 100-year flood plain activities, clustering incentives, density credits for undisturbed land, and protecting tree cover to prevent construction damage.

Balanced budget plan falls short in House vote
The balance budget constitutional amendment neared passage with a 279 to 150 tally but failed by seven votes as lawmakers criticized Congress for not reaching a deficit reduction deal with the White House. President Bush planned more budget talks with congressional leaders as the debt neared $3.1 trillion this year and could exceed $4 trillion before the amendment would take effect in 1995.
