Rising Sun setting up a business facade grant program

RISING SUN — Though it is still in its draft stages, the mayor and commissioners got a look at a program that could provide funding for businesses in town limits looking to improve their properties and the appearance of Rising Sun. The Commercial Façade Improvement Grant Program has a $50,000 allotment of money from the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development to start, but Calvin Bonenberger, town administrator, said the longterm goal is for this to become a self-funding program in which businesses can improve their properties with a combination of grants and low-interest loans from a revolving fund supported by the business community. “But we’re looking to change the name of the program, which gives people the impression all you’re doing is improving the outside of the building,” Bonenberger said. He suggested calling it The Rising Sun Business Revitalization and Improvement Grant Program. In the text of the draft, the goal is “to encourage private investment in the improvement, rehabilitation, accessibility, functionality and safety of commercial properties located within the town’s Sustainable Communities Area.” That means it has to be within the corporate limits of Rising Sun. And it’s not just for paint and exterior improvements. “We want

Class 2A/1A North Round 2 No. 5 Rising Sun at No. 1 Elkton: Friday, 7 p.m. Last Meeting: Elkton 59, Rising Sun 10; Sept. 25, 2026 Outlook: Two familiar region opponents square off in a second round matchup Friday night, as Elkton hosts Rising Sun with a trip to the state tournament on the line. Friday’s meeting will mark the fourth time in the last six seasons that the two schools have met in the postseason. Elkton won the pair’s last postseason matchup 40-13 in Nov. 2024. The two schools also met in Week 4 of this season, when Elkton used a 39-point second half to score a 59-10 victory. Elkton enters this week fully rested, as the Golden Elks had a bye for the first round of the region playoffs by virtue of having the No. 1 seed in Class 2A/1A North. The last time Elkton took the field, it capped off its second consecutive undefeated regular season with a 36-0 win over C. Milton Wright. Elkton will begin its postseason run led by quarterback Ziel Cleveland, who leads the Golden Elks in both passing and rushing yards. Cleveland has thrown for 1,924 yards through the air and 402

Exelon seeks customer relief through FERC Complaint

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Exelon Corporation has filed a complaint with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in an effort to change the way the cost of energy is determined for its customers, which include Delmarva Power. This amounts to a challenge to what is being considered by the company as an outdated method used to determine energy costs. Electricity for Cecil County comes from the PJM Grid. Currently the cost per kilowatt hour is decided by forecasting what the cost will be in three years. What Maryland can do now, according to the Exelon complaint, is change the contract to current trends, not future. Exelon contends this would bring meaningful savings to customers. PJM is a regional power supplier for Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland. In Maryland there are 275 operational generation plants, which includes residential solar. Another 265 are in the planning stage along with nine expansions. “Customers are facing a real affordability challenge, and we are stepping up through The Exelon Promise to advocate practical solutions to keep their bills as low as possible,” said Colette Honorable, Exelon executive vice president, chief legal officer, compliance and corporate secretary. “PJM’s recognition that its markets need to evolve is an important

High school graduations will remain at the Bob Carpenter Center

ELKTON — Cecil County Public Schools will once again hold its graduation ceremonies at the Bob Carpenter Center in Newark, Del. Two members of the Cecil County School Board voted against it Wednesday evening, but were outvoted with a 3-2 nod in favor of spending $58,590 to rent the Bob Carpenter Center for the 2027 graduations. Joe Ferdinando and Brian Hampton — this was Hampton’s final meeting — voted against the expense, with Hampton noting that coming budget cuts from the state means CCPS might need those funds elsewhere, including a shortage of teacher assistants in kindergarten classes. (Sheila Tome defeated Hampton for the District 4 seat. Hawley decided not to seek re-election. Grant Handley won her seat. Joe Ferdinando and challenger Dominick Mannella are separated by less than 2 percentage points. That race will be determined by a final tally with all ballots counted sometime Friday according to Gary Holmes, chief of the Cecil County Board of Elections) Superintendent Jeffrey Lawson said the individual schools budget about $7,000 on average for the ceremony regardless, so having it off site only adds about $20,000 to the CCPS budget. “Already on the budget doesn’t mean it should be spent,” Ferdinando said.
