Emmitsburg to watch snake keepers and zoning rules
Residents pressed officials at the Monday meeting about cobra snake keeping in Emmitsburg after a man died from a pet cobra bite. Leo Boyle questioned if proper permits existed and whether others kept snakes, while officials debated zoning and animal regulations and the need for any cobra ordinance. In other business, the town approved 1993 spending for well testing equipment, a diesel generator, and water quality analysis for a new well in the community park.

Frederick County Commissioners approve a policy restricting annual interest free loans to non profits and sports boosters to 200000 dollars and 100000 dollars per group with a five year repayment window.

The plan follows a Middletown High School boosters request for up to 100000 dollars to fund stadium lights.
