County panel limits funds for Frederick schools in 1999
Frederick County commissioners, in a closed session Tuesday, told the Frederick County Board of Education not to expect any operating funds beyond the maintenance of effort for fiscal year 1999. The school board sought 14 million dollars in supplemental funds, part of a 223.4 million dollar budget request. Only Commissioner David Gray supported additional funding, citing employee compensation and management concerns. Rhoderick abstained due to a conflict, and Reeder prioritized technology and capital needs.
