Frederick power woes and fire toll from 20 years ago
Mayor John A. Derr says four large Frederick industrial water consumers closed plants with the city due to fire danger as the Singapore filtration plant was out of commission from a power failure. Firemen arrived too late to save a Reese Poffen farm bank barn causing losses of 18 000 to 20 000 to an agricultural teacher. Last week’s snowstorm caused more damage to Frederick City power lines than any storm since his municipal leadership began, according to City Lineman Max Kehne.
