Maryland Roads Commission debate on reform and bills
Debates centered on transforming the three member Maryland State Roads Commission into a department with a single director, named McCain as the first head. McCain noted few states allow governor appointment without General Assembly confirmation. Controversy persisted over commissions’ terms and oversight. A related hearing discussed federal highway funding, expressway projects, and a pending bill about the Northeastern Expressway. Other items included a 4-H club contest and a boy struck by a car near Braddock Heights with injuries treated at Frederick Memorial Hospital.
