Mayor accuses county of blocking city annexation plan
Frederick Mayor Ronald N. Young said informants report county commissioners are drawing a line against cooperation and that they rejected the city’s request for a Rosenstock Estate annexation and opposed a city backed airport improving project. Commissioner president Mary G. Williams denied the charges, saying the county dealt with the city openly. The panel unanimously rejected annexation, opposed the Rosenstock Estate move, and postponed tax-differential discussions until January 1981, conveying its decisions in letters during a joint City Hall session.
