16-year-old shot in
Prince Frederick
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer

A 16-year-old black male was shot Monday afternoon in the area of Sheridan Point
Rd. and Chinquapin Ridge Ct. in Prince
Frederick. The victim was hit twice: one
in the head and another in the torso. After
receiving medical attention at the scene,
the victim was transported to Baltimore
Shock Trauma Center via helicopter and is
listed in critical condition after surgery as
of press time.
Donavon Stephen Harrod, a 21-year-old
black male of Sixes Rd., has been identified as the alleged shooter. According to
a press release from the Calvert County
Sheriffs office, the case started with a
marijuana purchase. Initially Harrod was
informed that the juvenile who was shot
wanted to purchase some marijuana. Harrod left work and drove to the meeting
place on Sheridan Point Rd. Eventually
he encountered three subjects, the juvenile who was shot, one other juvenile and
a third subject Corionte Eric Claggett, an
18-year-old black male.
The police believed that Claggett placed

what later to be determined a pellet gun to


Harrods neck and pulled the trigger. The
three subjects then fled, taking property
from Harrod. Harrod shot one of the fleeing subjects with a .45 caliber gun from the
truck of his vehicle. He later turned himself
in at the Maryland State Police Barracks.
Calvert County Sheriff Mike Evans
said shootings are rare in Calvert County.
Most of the cases involving violence are
drug-related.
Harrod was charged with first-degree
assault and other related charges. The gun
Harrod used was recovered from a residence on Sixes Rd. where Harrod dropped
after initially fleeing the scene.
The second juvenile involved in the case
was a 15-year-old black male. Claggett and
the juvenile were charged with multiple accounts, including armed robbery.
To provide information on this case,
please contact Detective Wells (410-5352800, extension 2595) or Detective Lord
(410-535-2800, extension 2765).

Honors Biology students from Huntingtown High School helped put the finishing
touches on their towns major shoreline
restoration project today, and discussed
how critical this work is for protecting
their town with project managers and town
officials. Project Managers from Environmental Concern, the nonprofit tasked with
managing the restoration work, were on
hand to guide students through planting
of shoreline grasses as well as five Living
Shoreline classroom stations, where they
collected data on ecosystem health.
In addition, these students have been
a part of the work from the beginning,
as a major component of the project has
been educational outreach. Several Living Shoreline classrooms have taken place
throughout the year, with the data students
collect at these classroom stations being
used to determine habitat and water quality improvements by the National Fish and
Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), the main
funder of North Beachs restoration work.
Environmental Concern aided the Town
of North Beach in attainting the $540,000
grant through NFWFs Hurricane Sandy
Restoration Fund.
(Funding for this project is provided by
the Department of the Interior through a
grant from the National Fish and Wildlife
Foundations Hurricane Sandy Coastal Resiliency Competitive Grant Program).
This project has become critical for restoring and protecting the Town of North
Beach. Over the past 20 years, North
Beachs shoreline has eroded over 40 feet,
not only threatening homes and residents
during storms, but lapping at the sides of
Route 261, a critical emergency evacuation route. Environmental Concern and
the Town of North Beach has restored the
shoreline and adjoining saltmarsh, which
will act as a buffer against rising sea levels
and help prevent loss of property, restoring 670 feet of shoreline with over 10,000
plugs of grass, along with three acres of
abutting saltmarsh. Todays event not
only actively engaged these students in
the monitoring of this crucial project, but
helped solidify their interest in restoration
work for the future. By helping plant the
last of the projects grasses and discussing
how the restoration has improved the water quality, habitat, and biodiversity at the
site since their first visit, these future scientists have learned the value of a healthy
habitat firsthand.
When we came here in the fall, all
of the plants over here werent growing
because we had a really big storm, said
9th grader Sydney Nader, whose favorite
subject is biology and plans to study biological engineering in college. Now that
everythings growing and doing well, its
really nice to see. Lots of the
people who are helping with
the project came out, and
definitely all the plants, there
are so many more which is
really good to increase our
living shoreline so we can
keep floods from going over
[over the road] and the erosion, and keeping our water
clean. Its really good to see.
There was a bird with eggs
and everything! Everything
is coming together.

I like coming with my class, its great


to come back and see all the progress that
weve had. Driving past it in a couple years,
youre gonna look overits kind of eye
opening, like I did that. Its really cool.
Nader also recognized the projects importance for protecting her town. This
work is really important. Again, with the
road over there, thats an emergency roadway. So if its blocked off with flooding,
lots of emergencies cant be cared for and
tended to as they should bealso keeping
the water clean, helping to stop erosion and
lots of pollution. I think just by getting the
word out and doing these projects together,
coming together as a community, it really
helps keep everything healthier and safer.
North Beachs Mayor Mark Frazer was
also onsite viewing the projects progress
and discussing its importance. Where we
are standing now is the most challenged
area of North Beach and really is a microcosm of whats going on in coastal communities up and down the eastern seaboard
faced with rising sea levels. Here we had
eroding shoreline and a badly depressed
wetland. One of the main arteries in and
out of town used during emergencies is
threatened by tides, storms and serious
flooding. This affects our residents and our
streets. We are excited as the project appears to be meeting its objectives in arresting shoreline erosion and National Fish and
Wildlife Foundation has made it possible
with their support.
We were thrilled when we were awarded the $540,000 grant from the NFWF organization, said Environmental Concerns
Restoration Vice President Jessica Lister.
We were one out of three in all of Maryland that received the grant, so that was
pretty impressive. We then were hired by
the town to design the project and construct
it, along with this big education effort
which really pulled everything together.
Im so excited this is all coming together, said longtime North Beach resident
and Member of Town Council and Chair
of North Beachs Environmental Committee Jane Hagen. To see the students
coming out to put it all together is great to
see. North Beach was hit really hard during Hurricane Isabel; we lost so much,
many people lost their homes. So weve
seen firsthand how much we need this.
Hagen has been active in town politics for
15 years, and has also seen the difficulty in
keeping the project intact. A lot of people
dont understand how critical this project
is, and dont understand their role in keeping it safe. People come out on the beach
and can disturb the restoration. So weve
got to keep people off the grasses. Thats
the most important thing.

Biology students from Huntingtown High School planted grasses on


the shoreline of North Beach in an effort to stop erosion on June 7.

Calvert Public School Celebrates


Employee Retirement

Education

Just In Time For Fathers Day

By Dandan Zou
Staff writer
On Thursday evening, about 100 people
gathered at the Rod N Reel restaurant of the
Chesapeake Beach Hotel and Spa to celebrate the retirement of 55 Calvert Public
Schools employees.
Among the retirees are elementary
school teachers, secretaries, middle school
services managers, autism specialist,
speech language pathologist, safety advocates, food services workers and so on.
Beverly Buehler is one of the retirees at
Thursdays dinner. At the age of 61, Buehler
retired from being a secretary for 16 years
at the St. Leonard Elementary School. With
the company of her sister and daughter,
Buehler wore a necklace with 10 colorful
birthstones to the dinner. The necklace was
originally a ring from her grandmother
Grace Carr. The ring had 10 birthstones
representing Carrs ten children, including
Buehlers mother.
Now I look forward to not having to get
up every single morning and go to work,
Buehler said. However, she said she would
miss the people she worked with. Through
her job, she met people of all walks of life
in the community.

Sometimes the parents come in, and I


know the parents parents, Buehler said.
Unlike some retirees, Buehler knows
exactly what she will be doing after retirement. She will work with Calvert hospice
as a part-time volunteer. The hospice has
helped five of her family members, and she
would like to give back, Buehler said. She
also looks forward to spending more time
with her grandson King Curley.
The dinner served green beans with almonds, mixed field greens, Caeser salad,
mashed potatoes, seafood newburg with
rice, sliced roasted turkey with gravy and
desserts.

Board of Education Honors


Robotics Winners
At the June 9, 2016 meeting, the Calvert County Public Schools (CCPS) Board
of Education honored the Calvert High
School VEX Robotics team for its many
successes during the 2015-2016 school
year. The team competed in the VEX
World Championship in Louisville, Kentucky for the fourth time after qualifying
by earning a finalist spot at the Maryland
State Championship.
Dr. Daniel Curry, Superintendent, said,
We are proud of the CHS team and the
strong STEM program in CCPS. Their
success demonstrates what can happen
when you work hard, when you have great
instructors and when you are encouraged
to use all you know to solve challenging
problems.
The winning team was coached by Karl
Sturge and Robert Bryner and was comprised of members Sean Kim, Paul Goldsmith, Chad Crisman, Kyle Berbarian and
Gabe Piatt.
In all, twenty-one students from Calvert

Their accolades include being recognized
for the Innovate Award for creating an
innovative feature on a robot, the Amaze
Award for overall quality of a robot and
the Skills Award for robot performance
and programming. The teams also won
the Volunteer of the Year Award, which
honors students and coaches for volunteering their time at the middle school VEX
tournaments.
According to the Robotics Education
and Competition Foundation, during the
competitions teams are tasked with designing and building a robot to play against
other teams in a game-based engineering
challenge. Students use the VEX Robotics
Design System to create innovative robots
built to score the most points possible.
Classroom STEM concepts are put to the
test in competition as students learn lifelong skills in teamwork, leadership, communications, and more.

A View From The

Bleachers

Hating LeBron James


Four games into The NBA Finals, Player
A has averaged 21.5 points, five rebounds,
4.8 assists and one steal per game. Player B
has averaged 24.8 points, 11 rebounds, 8.3
assists and 2.3 steals. Player A is reigning
MVP Stephen Curry. Player B is LeBron
James. Since Currys Golden State Warriors are up 3-1, hes so likeable and his
daughter is so darn cute, his mediocrity is
getting a pass. With the Cleveland Cavaliers on the brink of elimination, James
is being eviscerated, again. See when
Jamess teams lose, The King gets blamed,
fairness and objectivity be damned.
In her song 32 Flavors, Ani DiFranco
sings, Everyone harbors a secret hatred
for the prettiest girl in the room. James
personifies this lyric, in part: Hes often the
prettiest player on the court, but the hatred
of him is no secret.
James is inarguably one of the greatest
athletes of all time. Hes in the company
of Michael Jordan, Bo Jackson, Jim Brown
and Jim Thorpe. At 68, 250lbs of chiseled granite, James is a tank on the court.
He jumps like Jordan, runs like Bo Jackson, dribbles like a point guard and has the

quickness of an NFL cornerback.


This confluence of athletic gifts anointed
James The Chosen One before he could
legally drink. Twelve years into his NBA
career, it would seem James has done little
to disappoint. His accomplishments include 12 All-Star selections, four league
MVP awards, two Finals MVP awards, 10
appearances on the All-NBA First Team,
five appearances on the NBA All-Defensive Team, seven trips to The Finals and
two NBA championships.
But thats just Jamess basketball resume; his personal resume is comparably
impressive. Despite arriving in the NBA
as a teenager with more expectations than
any basketball player ever, James has navigated the fish bowl remarkably well. He is
a gentleman on the court, respectful of the
media and a willing criticism-absorber for
un-King-like teammates. And unlike so
many professional athletes, Jamess name
isnt associated with late-night club incidents, DUIs, assaults on women, drug use
or gun-related debauchery.
Still, the world loves to hate on LeBron
James; admittedly, he has obliged critics

By Ronald N. Guy Jr.

with legitimate material to fuel the skewering. Jamess game and persona have warts.
Despite generational physical gifts, James
is a reluctant bully (unlike some presidential candidates). When the spotlight is
brightest, James often chooses to defer to
teammates instead of dictating play. For
many players, this would be called unselfishness; for James, its considered a
chronic weakness. James also struggles
in his own head. His talent is obvious to
the viewers eye, but Jamess confidence,
on occasion, inexplicably wavers. Further,
hes failed to submit himself to an established coach (like Jordan, Magic Johnson).
And he rarely does himself any favors on
Twitter. Ultimately, though, there is this
haunting statistic: The Kings a very unregal 2-4 in The Finals. Down 3-1 to the
Warriors, the sharks are circling again.
So he isnt Jordan or Bill Russell. But
we knew this five years ago at least. The
Decision Jamess ill-fated televised announcement of his signing with the Miami
Heat - and disastrous pep rally that followed happened six years ago. Shouldnt
we have gotten our pound of The Kings

flesh and accepted his place in NBA history as one of the best, not the best?
I cant think of another athlete like
James. Hes had missteps, but Ive never
seen an athlete whose accomplishments are
so disrespected and one so disliked for no
meaningful reason. Do his critics consider
him a failure? Do they believe they would
have done better if blessed with his skills?
Both are laughable suggestions and disrespectful of elite competition and the great
teams James has battled.
Heres a worse thought: The tired trolling of James is indicative of a non-specific,
destructive habit. Whether buoyed by social media, a pervasive inferiority complex
or a decline in civility, fault-finders are a
swelling mob. Damn the good in anyone
if an ounce of fault can be found. Through
that lens, the vitriol criticism of James says
a lot more about his critics than it does
about the constantly embattled player.

Lear Scores Limited First in Potomac Thriller


Imler Doubles in RUSH Crates By Doug Watson

Budds Creek, MD- In a down to the


wire dog fight, Kyle Lear prevailed to score
his first win of the season in last Friday
nights 20-lap Limited Late Model feature
at Potomac Speedway. Lears win, the 18th
of his Potomac career, made him the third
different winner in the class this season.
Derrick Quade and Kenny Moreland
shared the front row for the start with
Quade surging into the race lead as the
field hammered into turn one. Third starting Kyle Lear tucked in behind Quade on
the first circuit and the battle was on. Lear
hounded Quade for several laps before he
slid past Quade on the 15th lap to become
the new pacesetter. Quade stayed on Lears
bumper for the duration of the event but
would settle for runner-up honors as Lear
took the win aboard his Rocket no.151.
I really wanted to win this one bad.
Lear stated post race. Its my daughters
6th Birthday and she said wed be in victory circle tonight, so Im happy to get the
win for her here tonight. Drier than usual
track conditions made Lear search for the
winning groove. The top got real dirty
tonight, so my only chance was to keep
working the bottom. Said Lear. I knew
Derrick was going to be tough to pass, but

late in the race he left the bottom open and


we were able to get by. Billy Tucker was
strong in third with 12th starting David
Williams and two time class winner Daryl
Hills rounding out the top-five. Heats went
to Williams and Jimmy Jesmer Jr.
John Imler collected his second feature
win of the season in the 25-lap RUSH Crate
Late Model main. The re-draw placed Imler on the pole for the start and he made the
most of his good fortune as he would pace
all 25-circuits wheeling his BRC Lazer
no.63. The win was not easy, as eventual
runner-up Darin Henderson shadowed Imler the whole way, before settling for second at the finish. What a race! Were the
words from a happy Imler as he stood in
Potomacs victory lane. This is the first
time my wife has been able to see me win
in the Crate Car and I was glad she was
here to see it. Imler knew he was in the
cat bird seat at the start of the event. When
we drew the pole for the start, I thought we
might have a chance to win tonight. Imler
stated. We had a good car but Darin was
there the whole way and he made us work
for that one. Logan Roberson took third
with 14th starting David Williams and Jeff
Pilkerton completing the top-five. Heats

went to Matt Tarbox and Imler.


In support class action Mike Latham
rolled to his 4th of the season and career
45th in the 16-lap Street Stock feature, John
Burch tallied his second of the season and
career 51st in the 15-lap Hobby Stock main,
Ed Pope Sr. nailed down his first of the season and career 21st in the 15-lap Strictly
Stock feature with Brian Coe Jr. scoring his
2nd win of 2016 in the nightcap 15-lap UCar contest.

The Legacy of Longtime Republican


Delegate Tony ODonnell
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
Two weeks ago, the news broke: longtime GOP Del. Tony ODonnell will leave
his delegate seat to serve on the Public
Service Commission this summer. Over
the course of 22 years at the legislature,
ODonnell is widely viewed as a strong
political figure that fought for conservative
principles and values.
Upon leaving the legislature, ODonnell
sees his effort and success in helping build
a two-party system at the House part of his
legacy. He said he believes that a system
in which two parties compete against each
other is much healthier than a one-party
monopoly.
The Republican minority in the legislature has continued to grow over the 20
some years Ive been there, ODonnell
said. During his two decades working at
the legislature, ODonnell said he had seen
the number of Republican members in the
House of Delegates doubled from 25 to 50.
ODonnell is also proud of his body
of legislative work. One of them was to
change the process of choosing school
board members from being appointed to
being elected. ODonnell was a member
of both the Calvert and St. Marys County
House Delegation when the two counties
sponsored legislation to change the process
of choosing school board members in the
1990s. The bills passed the General As-

sembly and were signed into law by the


then Governor Parris Glendening.
I was a major proponent of moving
away from a political process of handpicking our school board members to
one whichallowed the citizens the choice
through elections, ODonnell said.I trust
the citizens more than some invisible backroom process.
From 2007 to 2013, ODonnell served
as the minority leader in the House of Delegates. He is widely respected for standing
up for conservative beliefs in the Republican circle.
On Monday night at a Calvert County
Republican meeting, six candidates who
are seeking to replace ODonnell praised
his work at the legislature, often times facing a Democratic majority house.
You always knew where Tony stood
even if it wasnt always the popular thing to
do. But thats character, said Ted LeBlanc,
a local attorney whos seeking to fill the vacancy ODonnell left.

Jerry Clark first met ODonnell when


ODonnell knocked on his door to campaign for his bid for the delegate seat in
1994.
Sometimes Tony had very difficult situations when both the governor and the legislature were democratic. Tony was banging his head up against the hoover dam
trying to get through, Clark said, who also
put his hat in the ring for the delegate seat.
But he never gave up. He doesnt know the
word quit.
Former Democrat Delegate John Wood
worked with ODonnell for years before
Wood retired in 2015. As Wood remembered, ODonnell would sometimes get up
and start to argue when the delegates on the
floor got into a debate about certain issues.
I used to kid him: Tony, I can see your
neck is getting redder and redder. Dont
have a heart attack on us right here,
Wood said. As time went on, Wood said
ODonnell still believes in his principles,
but his attitude has softened over the years.
I had no problems getting along with
him. But there are other people that didnt
because he was strong-willed in what he
believed in, Wood said. But he kind of
got a little more easier to work with if you
want to say for some people.
ODonnell first got a taste of politics
when he campaigned for a colleague from
the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant who
ran for congress. The bid was unsuccessful,
but ODonnell started to get involved with
the local Republican Party as a volunteer.
In 1994, ODonnell ran and was elected a
member of House of Delegates.
Before becoming a politician, he worked
for the U.S. Navy for eight and a half years.

CONVERT

YOUR

When ODonnell was a senior in high


school in 1979, the Three Mile Island accident occurred at his hometown Middletown, Pa. At that time, he was contemplating joining the military and studying nuclear energy. The Three Mile Island accident
served as another influence on him to learn
more about nuclear power.
After graduating from high school,
ODonnell enlisted in the Navy, learned
about nuclear power and spent three and a
half years working as an instructor at the
Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory for the
Navy Nuclear Propulsion Training Program in New York. After leaving the Navy,
He was offered a job at the Calvert Cliffs
Nuclear Power Plant.
To the best of his knowledge, ODonnell
believed he represented Calvert County
longer than any other delegate in the state
of Maryland.
Im really honored to be their representative for so long. But now its time for me
to transition to another form of public service, ODonnell said. I hope I had done
the job well. I believe I did. I tried to do it
with much integrity and devotion.
ODonnell was appointed by Governor
Larry Hogan to be one of the five members on the Public Service Commission.
The Public Service Commission regulates
public utilities in the state, including electricity, phone and water. At the age of 55,
ODonnell will start his five-year term at
the commission on August 1.
Whoever gets his job, ODonnell has one
advice for him or her: Never forget, first
and foremost, the citizens and their wellbeing are more important that any other
considerations.

HOW DOES
A TANKLESS SPACE SAVING CALCULATION
WORK?
The obvious difference
between a tank and a
tankless is its size.
Not only will you gain
significant space, but
youll also get endless
hot water with a tankless.
Noritz tankless water
heaters last longer than
traditional tank water
heaters and are backed up
with a 12-year warranty.

STEP 5

The Noritz tankless water heater


provides an endless stream of
hot water. When the tap is
turned off, the unit shuts off.

With a tankless, you wont


be using hot water that is
stored in a tank that can
accumulate scale and rust
over time. Noritz units
allow you to set the
temperature you want.

A traditional tank-type water heater takes up to 13 ft2 of


space. If 1 ft2 is worth $200, thats $2,600 (13 ft2 x $200)
worth of space you could be saving at Noritz.

In 2010 I was contacted by Dr. Kathleen
(Graham) Lomax whose aunt wanted to
join the Society of the Ark and Dove. The
family believed they were descended from
Governor Thomas Greene (died 1650).
The connection was from Kathleens great
grandmother, Eliza Lida Yates (1877-1962),
daughter of Thomas Franklin Yates and
his wife, Sarah Priscilla (nee) Yates of St.
Marys County.
In order to join the DAR, SAR, Society of the Ark and Dove and other similar
organizations, the applicant must prove
their ancestry, generation by generation. It
wouldnt be long before I had to tell Kathleen she was not a descendant of Governor Greene. She did, however, qualify for
membership in the Society of the Ark and
Dove via Nicholas Harvey.
Recently in The Weekly Genealogist,
an on-line publication of the New England
Historic Genealogical Society, Kathleen
wrote: I discovered an error that eradicated an entire line. My grandfather was
the family genealogist until his death in
1990. He worked with an English genealogist for many years and extended one line
back many generations in England. My
uncle loved telling people about our ancestor Governor Thomas Greene, the second
colonial governor of Maryland, who was
removed from office for being a Catholic
and Royalist. My uncles punchline was
that our family fell out of prominence 400
years ago!
My aunt took her entire family to see
the family castle in England, and my
parents have a huge framed picture of the

family coats of arms. My aunt wanted to
join the Society of the Ark and the Dove,
and I offered to put together the necessary
documentation. I hired a wonderful genealogist and after a week she called and
asked if I wanted to preserve my family
history as it was, or move ahead and see
where the facts led. I opted for the latter
and she told me that my grandfather had
been misled by a will from the 1600s that
mentioned a daughter who was actually
a step-daughter.
Poof went our descendancy from Governor Greene, his family castle, and all his
familys coats of arms. As it turned out,
we did have an ancestor on the Ark and
the Dove voyage, but he wasnt particularly
distinguished. I joined the group, but my
aunt lost interest and never applied. And,
to this day, my uncle still ribs me about destroying the family tree.
Im sure youve heard the expression I
feel your pain. I didnt then but a couple of
years later I found a major flaw in my own
genealogy. I always thought I descended
from Joseph Morgan (1805-1865) and his
first wife Catherine Lee (1815-1846). That
notion was dispelled by an 1867 record that
named Joseph Morgans children--William
Morgan, Samuel Morgan, George W. Morgan and Mary Jane Van Wert. Not named
was my ancestor, John Daniel Thomas
Morgan (1828-1910). Goodbye to the Lee,
Carpenter, Maddox and a host of other
families Id thought were mine. That hurt!
Thanks to Dave Cummins for bringing
Kathleens posting to my attention.

ATMOSPHERES
Prince Frederick Shopping Center (Rt. 4
and 231, Prince Frederick) - Wednesday to
Sunday: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Five Artists share their visions in clay.


Featuring works by Ray Bogle, Denise
Breitburg, Marie Estabrook, Randy Estabrook, and Adam Sampson. June 8 to July
3, 2016. Reception: June 11, 5 to 8 p.m. This
show is shaping up to be a great show with
many non-traditional clay forms, vessels
and firing techniques. The artists are excited about their work and are eager to share
their visions with the public. Ray Bogle has
been working with clay for over 25 years.
His creations range from dramatic showspecific works to fun personal designs. His
contributions to the craft have included
teaching classes for children as well as
adults, developing a variety of forms and
glazes, and perfecting techniques in the
ancient skill of Raku. Denise Breitburg is
a marine biologist at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center with a deep
passion for the beauty and the complexity
of the natural world. She says, Everything
about pottery is magical from the hypnotic spin of the potters wheel, to the transformation of a shapeless lump to a graceful
shape, to the mystery of colors appearing
in the heat of the kiln. Marie and Randy
Estabrook are a married couple sharing the
same passion for clay. This is our creative
outlet- Randy and I make beautiful ceramic
art that reflects the designs and patterns
of the natural world, said Marie. Adam
Sampson is a our newest member and we
cant wait to see what he produces for this
show! Come join us for the opening reception where you can meet the artists, see
their work and enjoy appetizers and beverages. For more information, go to www.

COMMISSIONERS
CORNER

Real Issues

The ink is not even dry yet on the FY17


budget, and Im sure others, like me are
thinking about the FY18 build. The Service
Base Budget approach we used for the first
time this past year was valid and helpful.
Time unfortunately did not permit us to
use it to its full potential, but perhaps during the FY18 build we can advance from
lessons learned.
I dont mean to pick upon any previous
board, but the first year of this new approach would have been much better had
we started this a few years ago when there
was a considerable surplus of funding. I
simply did not have sufficient number of
votes then to build the budget other than
the way weve always done it.
This new approach showed how lean the
government truly is and unfortunately, due
to this first time without surplus of funding,
it positioned us to either make severe cuts
or increase tax rates. I would not blame the
tool; it was simply the mechanism providing greater insight for us and the public.
Ideally there would be 2 interfaces built
for that tool. Doubtful that would happen
as there is no money placed in the FY17
budget for these. One interface would give
a more friendly ability to access and use the
data instead of a spreadsheet (pretty easy to
do). The other would be more complex as it
would have to interface to the existing tools
used by Finance and Budget.
One of the benefits of the Service Based
Budget would assist viewing the overall
county structure. This year, we might be
able to do some analysis to determine if any
restructuring of the county government
will improve efficiency and perhaps assist
finding some savings. There may be a few
items we can have that dialogue of which

time did not permit during this past build.


As we do every year, we will evaluate
the need for tax increases, decreases, or if
they should remain the same. Each year,
we evaluate the proper tax rates (deciding
to increase, decrease, or remain the same).
However, lets properly focus upon real issues that form these evaluations.
The real issues causing the increased
revenue need was lost during the discussions related to our FY17 budget. Mandates
by the OMalley administration that caused
us to seek needed increased tax rates such
as when your gasoline tax money (known
as Highway User Revenue HUR) was
confiscated by the state ($5 million/year)
directly hurting our local road service; and
then the state forced upon the counties the
yearly payment of $5 million/year of teacher pensions.
Ill push the Maryland Association of
Counties (MACO) to keep restoration of
HUR to the counties a high priority. Perhaps local interest groups concerned about
tax revenue would spearhead lobbying
the Maryland State Legislature to reverse
those mandates. Would it not be wise to assist County Commissioners with the real
issues that affect taxes? After all, as I
mentioned before, a budget describes services, their costs, and their relative priorities; not simply dollar amounts of revenue
and expenses.
Citizens are encouraged to participate
with budget building, or have faith their
County Commissioners will provide the
best possible representation that balances
the need to ensure county services while
taking the least amount of money.

By Evan Slaughenhoupt
Commissioner President

A Letter to the Editor:


Sadly, ourcounty commissioners are not
doing the job their positions stipulate. They
are not acting in the best interest ofCalvert
Countys citizens, who elected them in office. Many of their decisions and behaviors
draw the suspicion that they act onlyas
agents for the government itself, or that
of financiers on Wall Street, who is trying to take advantage ofCalvert Countys
citizens. What makes it worse, is that these
commissioners seem to dishonor the very
citizens, the actual producers of wealth,
who work, provide, sacrifice,and toiltheir
lives for their families andfund the government through their taxes, butseem onlyto
honor, protect and reward thecounty
government.
They have failed us with a complete
lack of leadership by providing only one
proposed budget with property tax and
income tax increases. They have failed us
by not fighting for us, the people, by bringing new, or old,ideas to the table to reduce
spending. Such as arguing to reduce the
health care subsidy we pay for county employees, which stands currently at 80% of
the heath care premium. To also argue to
reduce the level of pension contributions
and have the employee bear more of their
retirementburden, as do those in the private sector.
To put this into focus, as an example,
lets say a county employee has a family of
four andthe health care plancost is $1000
per month. The county pays $800 for that
employee, the employee pays only $200
while a majority in the private sector would
have to budget and pay maybe $600, or up

tothe entire $1000. Yet there has been no


discussion to reduce the current subsidy
level.
There are also the non-county agency
expenditures. As the name implies these
are not government agencies, rather, private organizations. It is proposed, this
fiscal year, to give away over $1.1 million
to organizations outside of government,
such as $352,850 to Annmarie Garden.
Solomons Annual Events get $9630. Saint
Marys College receives $7000 from us.
And the ARC of Southern Maryland gets
$332,222, just to name a few of thetwentynine private organizations listed. Yet, no
mention of greatly reducing or eliminating
these expenditures, laudable as they may
said tobe.
Regardless of politicalfault, the private
sector working people in this countryhave
seen their wages decrease and living expenses increase, benefits reduced or terminated,or their jobs completely eliminated.
Many of these people, in order to survive,must seek out a second, sometimes a
thirdjob in order to make ends meet.Calvert County is not immune from these
harsh economic realities. Yet our county
commissioners seem not to care or are
oblivious. Government must grow, seems
the rallying cry.
Next fiscal year, the property taxes from
Dominion Cove Point LNGwill start to
be realized. Calvert County is expecting
about $25 million in new additional yearlytaxes, revenue. So with this fiscal years
property taxand income tax increases instituted, next fiscal year, with all things

being the same, Calvert County will have


excess revenue of over $25 million. There
is absolutely no logic to have passed a tax
increase this fiscal year when there will be
more than enough additionaltax revenue
coming in next fiscalyear. In fact, a discussion of reducing the constant yield tax rate
next fiscalyear could actually be a real possibility because of all that new tax revenue
from Dominion Cove Point LNG.
If the job of County Commissioner to
too hard for these individuals currently in

office, then maybe they should resign their


post. It has recently been written that for
22 years, Delegate Tony ODonnell has
been a greatCitizen Legislator. And
true it is. He has accomplished many great
things fighting for the citizens in his district and representedthem with honor and
vigor. But where are Calvert Countys citizen commissioners? Where are the individuals that will fight for Calvert Countys
citizens? Not in Prince Frederick.

Wright
Buddy Raley, 84,
of Owings passed
away June 9, 2016
at Anne Arundel
Medical Center surrounded by family.
He was born May
6, 1932 in Washington, D.C. to James
and Louise (Wright)
Raley. Buddy was
raised in D.C. where
he played basketball and baseball at Palisades Park and where he eventually met
Elizabeth Betty Harris. Buddy and Betty married in 1951 and they lived in D.C.
and had two daughters, Caron and Sharon.
They would later move to Greenbelt and
have two more daughters, LouAnne and
Colleen. Buddy raised his family in Greenbelt where he coached his girls basketball
and softball teams for many years. He and
his family moved to Calvert County where

he would continue to coach his daughters


co-ed softball teams. Following his retirement as a sheet metal worker, Buddy and
Betty were snowbirds in Sarasota, FL for
20 years. In his leisure time Buddy enjoyed
shooting pool and sports, especially baseball and basketball. He also enjoyed spending time with his family and never missed
his children or grandchildrens games after
he stopped coaching. Buddy was preceded in death by his wife Elizabeth Jane
Betty Raley who passed away in March.
He is survived by daughters Caron E. Sisson of North Beach, Sharon R. Sherbert
and husband Julius of Owings, LouAnne

Boehm and Marissa and Miranda Yost.

Oliver Ray Pillard


Oliver Ray Pillard AKA Ray, ORP, Dad,
Grandpa, GPa, Peepaw, brother, uncle, Big
Papa and friend was born and raised in Lincoln, Nebraska on July 28, 1939. He was
the son of Ray Ernest and Ethel Eula (Carpenter) Pillard. He had one sister, who preceded him in death, Betty Mae and brotherin-law, John Sutorka, and two nieces and
two nephews. After graduating from high
school, he joined the Navy and served two
years. When asked his choice of place of
duty he asked for west coast shore duty and
was assigned east coast land duty. Many
are grateful of that drastic contrast because
that is where he met Mary Ann Hughes
and their legacy began! He was welcomed
into the Hughes family right from the start
adding sisters and brothers Bobby, Carol,
Bev and Dave, and Fran and Eddie and
again many nieces and nephews. From that
beginning there were five children born
over the span of 20 years, Sandy, Debbie,
Donna, Timmy, and Theresa. Over the next
twenty or so years the family grew even
more with the addition of sons, Venton,

and Brad and daughter in law, Shanna. He


never considered them in laws but sons and
daughter in love. And then the grand children started coming and coming and they
kept on coming, with three great grandchildren holding up the rear, Christina,
Katheryn, Joshua (Sammi), Joseph, Jesse,
Elizabeth, Rebekah, Justin, Kelly (Nick),
Matthew, (Kellcey), Tyler Keith, Robbie,
Landon, Christopher, Tyler Bradley, Dylan,
Emma and the greats, Aiden, Paxton and
Finn. Sadly after 49 wonderful years of
marriage, MaryAnn preceded him in death
in 2009.In the beginning of his working
career he held down a full time job, as well
as two part time jobs, one of which was
selling knives door to door and he was still
the proud owner of the one and only set he
sold! While raising his young family he began working holding several positions such
as in the Navy Photo Center, Federal Office Supply, Safeway meat cutter, a Cartographic Technician, and took classes at the
community college. Eventually he ended
up an Intelligence Research Specialist with
top secret clearance. We have no idea what
he did because he would have had to kill us
if he told us! After 34 years of working he
retired all so he could go back as a contractor so he could continue to pay for college.
A few years after that, he really retired. He
began enjoying fishing, golf and some trips
to Atlantic City and most of all spending
time with the grandkids at sports events,
grandparents day at school, and the many

other activities they were involved with.


He spent many hours watching kids in the
pool, horsing around, playing catch and just
loving their infectious energy around him.
He snuck many tickles in there too. Excitement hardly describes the purchase of his
2010 black Camaro and his love for driving it, not to mention how much he loved to
hear the many compliments about his car
and how great he looked in it everywhere
he went!The last few years he added another activity that was all just for him, playing Texas Holdem at a few local places.
There he met a wonderful group of people
that he and his family were so grateful for
and happy to know he made such great
friends.Ultimately, on June 6, 2016 he
went all-in and lost his hand to a heart attack.One of the resounding foundations of
our family stems from the example of Ray!
His hard work, loyalty, commitment, faithfulness, forgiveness, sensitivity, generosity
to a fault, endurance, and love were among
the many things we all have experienced at
one time or another and more often at the
same time and love so deeply about him.
We are beyond blessed to have been a part
of his life and only hope we can carry on
his wonderful example.
