QAC rejects proposed gas station setback changes after public pushback

CENTREVILLE — The Queen Anne’s County Commissioners approved several text amendments, including increasing Suburban Commercial District density and adding new accessory dwelling unit provisions, while rejecting a 75-foot variance for gas stations Nov. 10. Following extensive debate and public comment, commissioners voted 3-2 to reject a citizen-sponsored text amendment proposing to alter county code to allow the Board of Appeals to grant a variance permitting the distance between a gas station entrance or exit and an intersection to be no less than 75 feet. Public comment urged against the amendment, raising concerns for traffic safety. While the proposed ordinance changes would apply countywide, the amendment was initially introduced on behalf of a property owner proposing a gas station at Maryland Route 405 and U.S. Route 301 along Price Road, a site public commenters noted to the commissioners as notoriously dangerous and the location of numerous crashes. Attorney Brendan Mullaney, speaking on behalf of the applicant, argued that the amendment would allow applicants to seek a variance through the Board of Appeals in extraordinary circumstances rather than explicitly reducing the 100-foot setback. The amendment would maintain all existing variance criteria and would not guarantee project approval, he said. Regarding safety concerns

Democrats sweep Kent commissioner seats: With final count, Shoge, Carroll and Bench defeat all three Republican incumbents

CHESTERTOWN — Democrats Sam Shoge, John Carroll and Thad Bench won all three Kent County commissioner seats, defeating Republican incumbents John Price, Albert Nickerson and Ron Fithian. Shoge received 4,352 votes, followed by Carroll with 4,039 and Bench with 4,003. Price received 3,883 votes, Nickerson had 3,840 and Fithian had 3,717. Bench finished 120 votes ahead of Price for the third seat. The outcome reversed the election night standings, when the three incumbents held the top spots before mail-in and provisional ballots were added. Commissioner-elect Carroll thanked supporters, volunteers and donors. “It was a full sweep. We swept all three seats of the county commissioners here in Kent County, and I'm just so excited and so humbled by this,” Carroll said. “I am so thankful, and I can't wait to get started, get to work, and make big things happen. I am here to work for you, Kent County.” Shoge also said he was “thrilled” by the outcome. In a statement Friday, Price congratulated the winners and thanked his fellow commissioners, county employees, family and supporters. “I have truly enjoyed serving as a Commissioner and I am very proud of our accomplishments over the last four years,” Price said.

FAA ground stop affecting national and local travel

EASTON — A nationwide ground stop has had a limited impact on Easton Airport so far, but charter flights bringing visitors to this weekend’s Waterfowl Festival could be delayed or unable to make the trip, airport Manager Micah Risher said Friday. Risher said information communicated to the airport indicated that flights operating under instrument flight rules, including airline and charter operations, were grounded. Flights operating under visual flight rules were still able to operate, he said. Those flights at Easton typically involve smaller aircraft flying at lower altitudes over shorter distances, Risher said. He said the problem appeared to involve communications between air traffic control centers handling higher-altitude flights. When asked about the nature of the disruption or what had caused it, Risher said he couldn’t speculate. According to reporting by the Associated Press, the Federal Aviation Administration grounded flights nationwide Friday afternoon because of communications problems at regional air traffic control centers. The FAA notice said the ground stop was imposed “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety.” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the communications issue affected the 22 regional air traffic control centers that guide aircraft between airports. FAA technicians were investigating. It was the first
