Frederick approves annexation of four square miles
Frederick mayor and aldermen last night approved annexing about 3.79 square miles extending from the city limits to the Monocacy River. The plan, set to take effect January 1, faces possible referendum if strong opposition arises in next election. Residents object to city taxes, but city officials promise to keep farm land tax exemptions while land remains agricultural. Others seek city services in exchange for annexation, while Aerojet-General asks for water and sewer to reach the plant near the airport. Mayor Magaha notes plans to extend utilities to the area after annexation and discusses potential tax policies for areas with limited services.
