Frederick board grants five-story Hilton variance in B-3 zone
The Frederick City Board of Zoning Appeals approved a five-story variance for the Hilton hotel at Jefferson Street intersection, limiting height to 60 feet and requiring 150-foot setbacks. The approval means a city planning text amendment for a broader B-3 change will not be pursued. Groundbreaking is planned for early May, with opposition from nearby residents citing visual impact.

Nationwide coal strike looms after talks collapse
A national coal strike appears likely after the United Mine Workers and the Bituminous Coal Operators Association broke off negotiations.

Donnybrook Looms as House Senate Clash Sparks Budget Row
In Annapolis the House passed a $5.6 billion budget for the year starting July 1 after the Budget and Taxation Committee voted to accept a $54.3 million cut from the fiscal 1992 budget. The move signaled a stand against restorations as leaders seek a compromise with Senate and Governor Hughes. The vote was 2 with two absences plus two cross- votes, while Sen.
