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

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 This amounts to a challenge to what is being considered by the company as an outdated method used to determine energy costs.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
