From the desk of It Was a Slow News Day for The Star-Democrat on July 22, 2007:https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/116037772/COMPLAINT off of Perry’s Corner Road in Grasonville, was given subdivision sketch plan approval by the Queen Anne’s County Planning Commission in September 2006, when it was recommended to upgrade the water category from W- 3 to W-2 and sewer from W-3 to W-2. The recommendation was unanimously denied by the county commissioners at a May 8 meeting. Commissioner Gene Ransom III said when the planning commission approved the project, there was no mention in the approval of the 50 or more MPDUs to be built on the site by Enterprise Homes. Though Enterprise Homes was present at the planning commission meeting, the planning commission’s approval specifically mentions “168 residential housing units” by Lacrosse Homes. “Maybe this is a new way developers will scare us into approving projects,” said Ransom, who would not comment further until he had been advised by planning commission attorney Chris Drummond. At the May 8 vote, Ransom said, “I will not be voting to add another large scale residential project to the sewer service area or to upgrade its sewer service designation until the expanded (sewer) plant comes on line. I believe we need to be sure the additional capacity is actually avail- able before committing to new large projects. Therefore, I will vote no to Sayer’s Choice. I also have concerns about the lack of affordable housing in the project, its failure to comply with the Grasonville Community Plan, and general environmental concerns. I would suggest the applicant revise the concept plan and resubmit it once the expanded sewer plant is on line.” The 2002 Grasonville Community Plan and the county’s comprehensive plan place the land at the Sayer’s Choice project in the Grasonville Planned Residential Neighborhood, which designates the area for growth and includes planned upgrades to the local sewer and water. The area also is a state priority funding area, which allocates state funds for the upgrade of infrastructure. Parker admitted the complaint to a federal court is unorthodox and may be the first of its kind in Maryland. Currently, the case is assigned to the U.S. District Court in Baltimore, where it is awaiting a case number. Formal notification has not yet been served to the county but will be next week. Parker said subpoenas will be issued to the commissioners. The county can then file an answer or file motions to dismiss the case. Should the case not be dismissed, it will take more than a year to be decided, Parker said. The Rev. Marie E. Robinson of Bryan United Methodist Church in Grasonville and Terri Sorrell of Caroline County are the only two citizens involved in the complaint. Parker said more are expected to be added to the list. The complaint says both Robinson and Sorrell want to live in Queen Anne’s County but are unable to because of the rising cost of living. Sorrell was raised in Grasonville but is forced to live outside the county lines. The complaint suggests if more affordable housing like that offered by Sayer’s Choice was available, they would be able to move into the county. Drummond’s office did not immediately return phone calls.

The snake is green with black diamond-shaped patterns. Not only do we have to fight crime, we have to fight snakes, joked State’s Attorney Frank Kratovil. He said no one in the office has seen the snake, “but we’ve had concerns about hearing it.” The Queen Anne’s County Department of Animal Services was notified Wednesday afternoon. Christian Wilson, a county animal services officer, said he did an extensive search above the drop down ceiling and didn’t find the snake. He said the reports about hearing the snake were credible. Wilson said staffers heard something moving, and a ceiling tile bowed. “I don’t think they were messing around,” said Wilson. While people might be alarmed at coming across a boa constrictor in Centreville, Marsiglia called her a “sweet little snake.” He thinks his snake might be a goner, and end up getting killed by an animal, run over by a car, or will die for lack of food. “She’s not fast. She’s never been around prey,” said Marsiglia. As a caged snake, she was fed one live rat per week, said Marsiglia. The snake was last fed July 13. Marsiglia said his buddy nicknamed the snake, “Cocaine,” because it’s from Colombia. But a snake doesn’t come to you when you call its name. “I never call her that,” said Marsiglia. “It’s not like a dog.”
