The cease and desist order that shutdown the Southern Maryland VeteransAssociation last month is still in affectafter the organization’s director appealedthe decision of the Maryland Secretaryof State last week.

Daniel Timothy Brashear wanted tohave the cease and desist order lifted,state ofcials said, but the hearing of-cer in the matter, the assistant secretaryof state, did not make a determination.

The hearing took place over two days,March 9 and March 10, state ofcialssaid and the record remained open for 10days following the hearing.

The charity was still barred from ac-cepting or solicitating donations, stateofcials said.

“The cease and desist order is still in

affect,” a state ofcial told The CountyTimes. “There’s no decision that’s beenmade. It’s still an ongoing matter.”

Ofcials said there would likely beseveral more weeks before the hearingofcer made a decision on whether to liftthe cease and desist order.

According to a press release fromMaryland Attorney General Brian Frosh

both Brashear, the charity’s founder, and Norman Randolph McDonald, who upuntil recently was in charge of collec-tions, were named in the cease and desistorder.

Brashear has charged McDonald withembezzling money from the charity.

The shut down of the charity was in re-

sponse to multiple complaints, accordingto state authorities, and an investigationalleged that the organization was not as-sisting the housing needs of veterans aswas claimed in marketing materials.

Brashear said that at the hearing thestate brought out complaints against hisorganization that were anonymous andeven said that state ofcials had pre-sumed his guilt in public statements theyhad made about his organization.

He said he did not believe that he had been treated fairly and that the statewould likely keep the cease and desistorder in place.

“I think they’re going to run it underthe status quo,” Brashear said.

He also claimed that he sent the statethe list of veterans he had housed at their

shelter but the state was not satised because he did send copies of their d is-charge papers to prove their service.

He said he would not release them be-cause he wanted to protect veterans’ pri-vacy, particularly regarding their medi-cal information.

He also said accusations that they hadhoused pedophiles was false, they hadhoused one sex offender, Brashear said,

but that person was a veteran and had been involved with an adult.

Armory Square

and Trafc

Commissioner’s Corner

Governor Larry Hogan, recently an-nounced the State Highway Administration(SHA) project that widens the MD 2/4 roadin Prince Frederick from FoxRun Boulevardto Commerce Lane. That project supports the

plans Calvert County has to enhance eco-nomic development under a project calledArmory Square.

Trafc studies are related to ArmorySquare and included studying Intersectionsfrom MD 2/4 at Fox Run to MD 402 (DaresBeach Road) and along Dares Beach Roadthrough Armory Road to Fairground Road.

The following are excerpts from a TrafcAnalysis Impact Study:

A trafc analysis impact study indicated

that with the completion of the SHA project,there will be three northbound through lanesand a total of 561 vehicles per lane in the f u-ture tr afc conditions. This is a 25% decreasein the amount of trafc per through lane,even with trafc growth and full build-outof Armory Square, which results in greaterthroughput along MD 2/4.

There will be three southbound throughlanes and a total of 696 vehicles per lane inthe future trafc conditions. This is a 19%decrease in the amount of trafc per throughlane, even with trafc growth and full build-out of Armory Square, which results in great-er throughput along MD 2/4.

Southbound trafc on MD 2/4 trying to getonto Dares Beach Road currently only hastwo opportunities. There is a single left turnlane at Steeple Chase and there is a single left

turn lane at Dares Beach Road. Based on the

existing volumes, it appears that many mo-torists currently use Steeple Chase Drive toavoid the MD 2/4 & MD 402 inter section.

The SHA project will result in a doubleleft turn from southbound MD 2/4 at DaresBeach Road. Furthermore, the extension ofFox Run Blvd to Fairground Road providesan additional route for motorists to use toget to Dares Beach Road without having togo through the intersection of MD 2/4 at MD402. Additionally, the new access road andtrafc signal to the south of Steeple ChaseDrive will provide an additional double leftturn lane. This would result in three doubleleft turn lanes on southbound MD 2/4 thatwill connect to Dares Beach Road, as com-

pared to the exis ting two single left turn lanesthat motorists can use to get to Dares BeachRoad.

The results of the Trafc Analysis ImpactStudy indicate that all intersections will op-erate at acceptable conditions in the futuretrafc conditions with the construction ofthe MD 2/4 widening project by the SHA,and with the additional improvements as pro-

posed by Armor y Square.The efforts to actually make Amory Square

a reality continues to be another set of twistsand turns along a bumpy highway; but that isa story for another time.

Some Commissioners MayOppose Calvert ShoresBy Crista DockrayStaff Writer

Calvert Shores, the proposed municipalityof the Chesapeake Ranch Estates, may facesome opposition from the Calvert CountyBoard of County Commissioners.

Opposition from the Board of County Com-missioners could cause Calvert Shores not togo to referendum, meaning the residents ofChesapeake Ranch Estates would not be ableto vote on the matter come November 2016.

The issue with the proposed municipalityseems to lie with its boundaries.

The boundaries of Calvert Shores will in-clude the entire community of the ChesapeakeRanch Estates extending to Solomons IslandRoad and Cove Point Road. With these bound-aries, the Lusby Town Center and the PatuxentBusiness Park are included.

According to County Commissioner Mike

Hart, to be a part of the municipality will meanan increase in taxes for businesses and possi- bly the residents.

Hart is against this. Hart owns a business inthe Lusby Town Center.

“I will oppose it [Calvert Shores] if it in-cludes the businesses and if it increases themoney the Chesapeake Ranch Estates resi-dents would have to pay,” he said.

County Commissioner Pat Nutter told theCalvert County Times that he is “not crazyabout that at all,” in regards to Patuxent Busi-ness Park’s placement within Calvert Shoresand that he has heard a general opposition tothe municipality from business owners.

The owner of Ledo Pizza in Lusby, JeffBagaruf, said he opposes Calvert Shores.

“I think that Maryland in general does notmake it easy for small businesses,” he said.

“Every year it seems like a new tax comes upand this will be another one…I’m defnitelynot for it.”

Bagaruf says he does not feel it is his re-sponsibility to pay for the problems that Ches-apeake Ranch Estates is facing.

According to John Norris, the county’s at-torney, the only people that are allowed to votein the possible upcoming ballot are residentsthat live within the boundaries that are alsoregistered voters. This means that if a businessowner has a business within the boundaries

but lives outside of them, he or she cannot voteon the matter and will be subjected to the lawsof the municipality. This would include Baga-ruf who lives in Huntingtown.

“My frst reaction is that it seems a little un-fair,” said Bagaruf.

Cathy Zumbrun, one of the key residents

behind the Calvert Shores movement, assuredthe Calvert County Times that she has reachedout to the businesses but has received hardlyany response.

Zumbrun said they had invited businessesto attend the Feb. 3 public meeting but no

businesses attended, they had done petitionswithin the commercial district and receivedfew signatures from businesses, and they havewelcomed the businesses to submit writtencomments, but received none.

“We are assuming their silence is consent,”said Zumbrun.

Zumbrun said that the main reason theywanted to change to a municipality wassimple.

“Money is the primary reason,” she toldThe Calvert County Times. “We started as asummer community and now we’re a suburb

of [Patuxent River Naval Air Station] and sub-

urbs want amenities.”Those amenities include much-improved

infrastructure that the community has long

sought but not always paid for consistently.Zumbrun said Chesapeake Ranch Estates

has long had a problem collecting all of theroad and maintenance and operations fees; be-ing a municipality with the power to tax couldactually result in a reduction in those fees, shesaid.

But that depends on an internal community ballot coming this summer where residentswill have a chance to vote to agree to handover responsibility from the home owners as-sociation to the municipality.

Zumbrun said the tax increases on proper-ties could amount to an extra $60 a year or fvecents per every $100 of assessed value.

That could mean the elimination of $400 inhomeowners’ fees, she said.

Moreover, she said, for decades communityresidents had been paying out taxes for local

roads but not getting it back because of the pri-vate nature of the neighborhood but by becom-ing a municipality that would change.

“We want taxes they’re already paying tostart coming back to us,” Zumbrun said.

Commissioner President Evan Slaughen-houpt said he wants the residents to have achance to decide for themselves.

“I have always been in the mindset that lo-cals have the greater say in the matter, I don’tlike the idea of an outside force dictating thewill on others,” Slaughenhoupt said.

However, Slaughenhoupt said that he will be looking closely at the report to make sureall possible issues and outcomes have beenthought through.

“I really, really hope that everyone downthere who is supportive of incorporating thearea into a town has their eyes open to all the

implications,” said Slaughenhoupt. “I person-ally think that the individuals that live there,life will get more expensive for them,” headded.

County Commissioners now have 45 daysas of Tuesday, when The Calvert Shores Mu-nicipality Organizing Committee turned intheir report, to respond with questions andconcerns. After the Calvert Shores com-mittee turns in their fnancial impact reportwithin 90 days, the County Commissionerswill vote whether or not to send the proposalto referendum.

According to the Norris, this will happenaround the end of the summer.
