State Money Woes Spell Trouble for Local Counties Circulation 13,000 January 8, 2010 Free Gordy, Hart, Take Helm in Accomack By Linda Cicoira District 7 Representative Laura Belle Gordy will serve as chairwoman of the Accomack County Board of Supervisors in 2010. Her peers unanimously select- ed her at the panel’s organizational meeting Wednes- day night. “Thank you, all my colleagues,” Gordy said. “I prom- ise to do my very best. I feel with your cooperation, we will have a very successful year.” She said “communica- tion” is the key.“I don’t want us to have any secrets and everyone to be equally informed … we are all equal.” Gordy also announced that Rev. Donald Broad of Melfa will return as parliamentarian in 2010. In a 6-3 vote, the supervisors chose District 8’s Donald Hart to serve as vice chairman. Last year’s chairman, Steve Mallette, and Supervisors Ron Wolff and Phil Mc- Caleb were opposed. Supporting his nomination were Su- pervisors Gordy, Grayson Chesser, Jack Gray, Sandy Hart Mears and Wanda Thornton. Hart also voted in favor.

BACKGROUND 1. The Commission has before it for consideration two Applications for Review filed by Birach Broadcasting Corporation (“Birach”), regarding its Station WDMV(AM), Walkersville, Maryland, both of which are opposed by New World Radio, Inc. (“New World”).1 Birach seeks review of staff decisions issued on May 18, 2004 (the “May Decision”),2 and June 15, 2004 (the “June Decision”),3 which denied Birach’s two separate requests for additional time to construct the modified WDMV(AM) facilities.4 For the reasons set forth below, we deny Birach’s Applications for Review. 2. WDMV(AM) is an operating station currently licensed to Walkersville, Maryland. On July 18, 2001, the staff issued a construction permit to the station’s then-permittee, Elijah Broadcasting Corporation (“Elijah”), authorizing relocation of the station’s transmitter to a site near Damascus, Maryland (the “Damascus Site”), from which the station would serve Poolesville, Maryland, instead of Walkersville. The permit, granted over the objection of New World, required completion of construction by July 18, 2004. On August 22, 2001, New World filed a timely Petition for Reconsideration of the permit’s grant. Birach acquired WDMV(AM) and the contested permit by an assignment from Elijah on December 6, 2002.5 On November 26, 2003, the staff affirmed the grant of the WDMV(AM) modified 1 New World is the licensee of Station WUST(AM), Washington, D.C.

    1 9 4 THE UNIVERSITY University of Maryland DEEP ROOTS BROAD IMPACT Charles Benedict Calvert founded the Maryland Agricultural College in 1856 with the goal of creating a school that would offer outstanding practical knowledge to him and his neighbors and be “an institution superior to any other.” One hundred and fifty years later, the University of Maryland has blossomed from its roots as the state’s first agricultural college and one of America’s original land grant institutions into a model of the modern research university. It is the state’s greatest asset for its economic development and its future, and has made its mark in the nation and the world. Calvert would be astounded by the depth and breadth of research activities, innovative educational programs, and the single-minded pursuit of excellence that are part of the University of Maryland today. Maryland is ranked 18th among the nation’s top public research universities by U.S. News & World Report, with 31 academic programs in the Top 10 and 86 in the Top 25.

    AppendixAppendix AA ProfilesProfiles ofof 20092009 ConditionsConditions andand TrendsTrends The Eastern Adams County Joint Comprehensive Plan and Route 194 Corridor Study , 2012 This page intentionally blank for two-sided printing. Eastern Adams County Joint Comprehensive Plan Population Profile Population statistics were derived from the US Census Bureau and used to characterize the Eastern Adams County region resident population by age, race, ethnicity, density, and households. Population projections for 2010, 2020 and 2030 were collected from the Adams County Office of Planning and Development. These demographic conditions provide an indication of current resident needs for land, infrastructure, and services. Population projections enable an estimate of future resident needs for the same. Findings of the Data • The region’s population at the turn of the 21st century was 15,992. Growth surged between 1990 and 2000, when the region added nearly 30% more residents; an average annual increase of 2.9%. This was due in large part to the fact that municipalities in this region had land zoned for development and available sewer capacity that other areas of the county did not have. Every municipality in the region grew with Abbottstown Borough growing the most (67.9%) and New Oxford Borough growing the least (4.89%) between 1990 and 2000. In real numbers, Oxford Township had the largest population increase, adding 1,439 residents, followed by Reading Township which increased by 1,278 residents. During this period, the region grew faster than Adams County and the State (Table 1). • More detailed data at the census block group level shows that the population in Abbottstown Borough, adjacent areas of Hamilton Township, eastern New Oxford Borough and adjacent areas of Oxford Township saw the greatest rates of increase between 1990 and 2000 (60-80%).
