Walkersville Couple Win Garage Conversion Appeal
A Walkersville couple, Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Gearhart, won approval from the Board of Zoning Appeals to convert a near street edge four car garage into a single family dwelling.

Residents press for Adamstown land use decision
Attorney Hubert Morrison told the News-Post residents in the Adamstown area demand a Board of County Commissioners ruling on the County Land Use Plan for Adamstown District. He said they may seek a court order to compel action, arguing a new hearing before the Planning Commission would be unnecessary after last Thursday’s four hour session. Morrison cited a 1964 Zoning Commission document defining Agricultural districts to conserve fertile soil and keep farming areas in agricultural use.
