Public hearings reveal small crowds for PE rate case in Frederick
Frederick residents voiced dissatisfaction with Potomac Edison’s near 346 million dollar 85 percent rate increase at PSC hearings. Attendees were under 20 in Frederick while larger crowds earlier in Hagerstown and Cumberland contrasted with local frustration over rising bills and perceived inaction by officials. Potomac Edison argues for higher base and fuel charges, with debate ongoing into June.

Walkersville taps deal fuels developer standoff
In Walkersville a dispute over water taps for expansion spanned months as engineers must finalize plans before costs are set. Developers pressed for fixed prices but the commission favored a staged fee plus inflation safeguards. About 600 to 800 taps were planned with a workshop planned ahead of an April 28 signing date. The case could set a town precedent for future projects.
