Residents urge end to city county tug of war over w s woes
About 75 Butterfly Lane residents packed Hillcrest Elementary Monday night urging the Frederick County Commissioners to share more of the cost to fix water and sewer problems sparked by a road widening project. They blamed city county state officials for delays and questioned jurisdiction as lines are city owned but homes lie in the county. Residents noted wells contaminated with human waste, costs of 15000 to 20000 dollars per home, and feared tax hikes if annexed.
