Budget Message: Keep the
Tax Rates the Same
Commissioner Vice President Tom Hejl
By Dick Myers
Editor
The Calvert County
Board of County Com-
missioners (BOCC) has
directed staff to build the
budget for the next fis-
cal year with the income
and property tax rates at
the current level. Even
though the ink is barely
dry for the budget that
went into effect on July 1,
staff of the Department of
Finance and Budget are
now beginning to work on
the budget for Fiscal Year
2020.
County departments
will be receiving pack-
ets for developing their
budget by October 1. The
message contained in
those packets:
• County departments
maintain their budgets
for FY 2020 with strong
justification for any
increase
• All requests for new
positions, initiatives or
programs should be list-
ed in a separate column
in the budget software.
The request for a level
budget comes even though
Director of Budget and
Finance Tim Hayden is
predicting a $12.3 million
increase in revenue. But,
the bulk of that increase
will be coming from the
Dominion Cove Point
Payment in Lieu of Taxes
(PILOT). It is anticipated
to increase by $9.2 million
this coming fiscal year,
bringing the total to $64
million.
According to Hayden,
the Dominion PILOT will
remain above $60 million
through Fiscal Year 2023
and then level off to about
$54 million after 2023.
The Dominion PILOT un-
til 2023 will be based on
a fixed amount, according
to Commissioner Presi-
dent Evan Slaughenhoupt,
Jr. After 2023 it will be
based on the plant’s as-
sessed value.
It is because the Do-
minion PILOT is antici-
pated to drop in a couple
of years that the county
does not want to apply
those extra revenues to
recurring charges, instead
putting it to use to pay
cash for capital projects
or to cover costs of other
post-employment benefits
(OPEB), a fund used to
cover future costs of re-
tiree health benefits.
Slaughenhoupt elicited
unanimous agreement
not to reduce either the
income or property-tax
rates in preparing the bud-
get. Two years ago, the
The Calvert County Times
board raised the property-
tax rate from .892 to .937
and the income-tax rate
from 2.8 percent to 3 per-
cent. That has become an
issue in this year’s com-
missioner election.
Slaughenhoupt, who
is not seeking reelec-
tion, continued to justify
the decision, saying oth-
erwise the board would
have been facing the de-
cision to cut $10 million
somewhere in the budget.
Commissioner Vice Pres-
ident Tom Hejl, who was
defeated in the primary,
said the commissioners
had repeatedly asked tax-
payers where they would
like to cut the budget.
“Not one person came
forward to tell us where
to cut,” he said.
Hejl said he could vote
to put a tax cut in the bud-
get and let it up to the new
board to decide where
to cut. But, he added, “I
could be vindictive, but I
love Calvert County.”
Hayden said if the tax
increase had not been en-
acted, the county would
still have an almost $10
million deficit.
Commissioner Pat Nut-
ter, who also is not seek-
ing re-election said, “It
was one of the hardest
decisions I’ve ever made.”
Local News 3
Hayden said the flow of
income tax revenue has
been difficult to predict
in recent years and the es-
timates have been higher
than what actually came
in. So, this year he is mak-
ing a modest prediction of
just $300,000 more.

Planners Reject School Capacity Changes

By Dick Myers
Editor
The Calvert County Planning Com-
mission has rebuffed a suggestion that
regulations on adequate public facilities
mising efficiency.”
Plummer-Welker said that the schools
have space and the limiting factor is their
desired pupil-teacher ratio. To go over
100 percent classes would just have to be
larger. She also pointed out that students
moving into existing residences have
to be accommodated and that several
schools in the northern part of the county
are already operating at more than 100
percent capacity.
The desire for the change came from
the fact that subdivisions have been halt-
ed in portions of north county, which is
viewed as an economic development
damper.
The current regulations put the maxi-
mum amount of time final subdivision
approval can be delayed at seven years,
under the theory that should give the

ditions to existing schools or building a

improvement plan.
At the BOCC meeting, Commissioner
Pat Nutter had difficulty with the concept
of allowing schools to operate over capac-
ity. But he and the other board members
went along with allowing the planning
commission to look at it and set up a pub-
lic hearing.
At the Sept. 19 planning commission
meeting, member John Toohey had the
same problem that Nutter had: “I can’t see
this one,” he said. “I’d like to leave it at
100 percent, frankly.” Toohey is a retired
schoolteacher.
The rest of the commission members,
with the exception of Maria Buehler, sup-
ported Toohey when he made the motion
to reject taking the change to a public
hearing. His motion did, however, include
changing the time limit from seven years
to six years and also to make some minor
editorial changes in the regulations. They
will go to a public hearing.

Community Partners Provide Medical Rides
Tri -County Council Leads Effort
By Dick Myers
Editor
There has been a persistent gap for peo-
ple in Southern Maryland seeking health
care services. That gap – transportation.
Many people live in rural areas without
any form of transportation other than what
they can provide themselves. When they
can’t drive or can’t afford the wheels they
are often out of luck.
That gap was discussed at a regional
meeting several years ago at the College
of Southern Maryland Prince Frederick
Campus. Out of that meeting came the Tri-
County Council for Southern Maryland
(TCCSMD) involvement and the securing
of grants to get a project off the ground.
According to TCCSMD Executive Direc-
tor, John Hartline, a $25,000 grant was
awarded to then from the Rural Mary-
land Council, followed by an additional
$35,000, to develop a plot project to pro-
vide transportation services.
According to information provided by
Hartline “Transportation availability is
a vital social determinant of health out-
comes in rural communities. The avail-
ability of reliable transportation impacts a
person’s ability to access appropriate and
well-coordinated healthcare, purchase nu-
tritious food, and otherwise care for him
or herself.”
The pilot project started to come togeth-
er when The Arc of Southern Maryland in
Prince Fredrick received an $80,000 grant
from the Maryland Department of Trans-
portation (MDOT). The Arc is using the
grant funds from MDOT and their own
funds as a local match to supply “two vehi-

ment in the program.
Hadden said the council is working with
the planning departments in Calvert and
St. Mary’s to help them identify areas in
their counties most in need of transporta-
tion services. That will especially assist
Calvert County which is now updating its
comprehensive plan which has a transpor-
tation component.
Hartline said TCCSMD is applying to
the Rural Maryland Council for a grant to
supply iPads, two software systems from
Roundup and WellRyde, wireless data
transmission capabilities from Verizon
Wireless and funds to pay a per mile trans-
portation reimbursement for each client.

Duke Honored For Impact on CBL Campus

C. Brian Duke, Facilities Manager at the University
of Maryland Center for Environmental Science’s Chesa-

Staff Award for Effectiveness and Efficiency. This is the
first time that an UMCES staff member has received

“These awards celebrate and recognize the best staff

Duke has had a remarkable impact in his five years as
facilities manager at the Chesapeake Biological Labora-
tory, helping to create a facilities team that operates a
complex and sophisticated campus.
“When guests come to campus they often note how
wonderful our facilities look, believing that we have
spent additional time to prepare for their visit,” said Tom
Miller, Director of the Chesapeake Biological Labora-
tory (CBL). “The truth is that the CBL campus always
operates at a high level to support the research and ad-
ministration of those who work here every day.”
Duke’s biggest contributions have been in the area of
the efficiency and effectiveness of campus operations.
These include leading improvements to buildings on
campus that have yielded substantial savings on opera-

Southern Maryland:
14 The Calvert County Times
The Fall Place to Be
By Dick Myers
Editor
Many people believe that Southern Maryland is at its best in the
fall. Evidence can be found in the milder weather, often with a little
nip in the air, and the abundance of activities, including fairs and
festival, to interest just about everybody.
Fall is a particularly nice time to get out and enjoy the beautiful
surroundings that are ours for the picking all year but are espe-
cially special in the fall. A hike around a park is all the more enjoy-
able without the fear of dehydration, although everyone should
be aware that in spells it can get hot in the fall. That’s what Indian
Summer is all about.
Calvert Couny parks just begging for a hike are: Kings Landing
Park, Calvert Cliffs Stare Park, American Chestnut Land Trust, Battle
Creek Cyprus Swamp Sanctuary, Biscoe Gray Heritage Farm and
Chesapeake Beach Railway Trail. Or a stroll around North Beach
including along the boardwalk is a likewise pleasant diversion.
Parks in St. Mary’s County include Point Lookout State Park, Elms
Beach Park, Greenwell State Park, Leonardtown Wharf Park, Myr-
tle Point Park, Newtowne Neck State Park, Port of Leonardtown
Pak, Historic St. Mary’s City, St. Clements Island State Park, and St.
Mary’s River State Park.
If history is your thing, some of the aforementioned parks also
come with a twist of history, such as St. Mary’s City for colonial his-
tory and Point Lookout State Park for Civil War history. Of course,
history is on display inside Calvert Marine museum, Bayside History
Museum in North Beach and Chesapeake Beach Railway Museum

A day trying to fund your way out of a corn maze is a perfect way
to commune with autumn (see a complete listing if local corn maz-
es elsewhere in this special section)
Local farmer’s markets have the requisite pumpkins and mums, in
addition to a surprising variety of fall fruits and vegetables. And of
course, crabs and oysters are at their peak, available directly from
the watermen or at your favorite local restaurant. And speaking of
food, don’t forget the Harvest Taste of Solomons on Oct. 13.
The many fairs and festivals in the fall can leave residens with the
need for a daytimer or phone calendar in front of them for sched-
uling. The first full weekend in October is really full, with Patux-
ent River Appreciation Days, Blessing of the Fleet and Sotterley’s
Riverside Winefest all that weekend (see separate stories on each
festival in this section).
Southern Maryland is looking outward towards the Bay and the
rivers, and its maritime history and watermen’s culture are both
treasured. That heritage is on display at Patuxent River Apprecia-
tion Days Oct. 6-7, the Blessing of the Fleet Oct 6 this year, and the
St. Mary’s County Oyster Festival Oct. 20-21 at the St. Mary’s Coun-
ty Fairgrounds.
Halloween looms as October winds down. The three towns in
Calvert and St. Mary’s are an exciting and safe place for kids of all
ages to celebrate Halloween. Here are their events:
• North Beach Boo Bash on October 27, 2018,  3-5 p.m. The North

BY: JEFF TOMCSIK
Orthodontic braces and clear align-
ers such as Invisalign® are not just
for straightening teeth and mak-
ing your smile look better. In fact,
a highly trained and skilled dentist
will use orthodontic treatment to
improve the function of the teeth
which will result in a healthier, lon-
ger-lasting smile. While good look-
ing teeth are attractive, the purpose
of your teeth is to chew food. When
teeth are misaligned, they can slow-
ly damage opposing teeth during the
chewing process. When they are in
proper alignment, teeth break down
the food they are chewing without
damaging each other.
To help illustrate the point, think
of a well working pair of scissors.
When in good alignment the two
blades come together and meet at a
very precise point that makes them
excellent at cutting paper. On the
other hand, imagine one of the
scissor blades had a slight bend or
a ding in the metal. This imperfec-
tion would surely affect the scissor’s
ability to cut as well as when it was in
perfect alignment. If the one blade
is bent away from the other, there
will be a gap between the points of
contact that cause the cutting action.
The result would likely be a failure
to cut effectively or efficiently. If the
bend in the one blade is toward the
other, it would cause the blades to
scrape each other, making cutting
difficult. More importantly to note,
the blades scraping each other slow-
ly destroy the cutting surface of both
blades.
These same principles can be ap-
plied to your teeth. In any area of
the mouth where your opposing
teeth do not meet when you per-
form a chewing motion (meaning
there is a space between the top
and opposing-bottom tooth in any
area of your mouth when your jaw
is closed), like the scissor in the first
scenario, it is rendered ineffective in
the chewing process. On the other
hand, if there are any teeth that are
colliding with their opposing teeth,
they are likely causing trauma to
each other and slowly wearing down
the enamel surface and eventually
the tooth structure. This will like-
ly lead to greater risk of decay and
eventually risk the tooth’s overall vi-
tality.
Many people who have ongoing
problems with decay or pain de-
spite their efforts to keep their teeth
clean, might be suffering from mal-
occlusion issues that are causing the
ongoing dental problems. The good
news is that orthodontics may be a
solution to these problems, and a
straighter, more beautiful smile is a
bonus to the treatment, not the rea-
son for the treatment.
If you’re like most adults, the
thought of braces is unnerving.
Years in metal brackets and sharp
wires is no-one’s idea of a good time.
If these thoughts are keeping you
away from approaching your dentist
about a straighter, more beautiful,
better functioning, healthier smile,
consider a clear aligner option such
as Invisalign®. Invisalign® is a
clear, removeable retainer that may
achieve the same results as tradition-
al braces in less time.
The fact that aligners are remove-
able means you can take them out
whenever you eat. This makes eat-
ing more comfortable and cleaner
as you will not have to worry about
food particles being stuck in your
braces. They also allow you to eas-
ily clean your teeth, where braces
with wires make flossing and thor-
ough brushing more difficult. The
material used by Invisalign® is by
far superior to all other aligners on
the market. Not only is it the most
invisible, it is also the fastest work-
ing material, meaning you will reach
your desired outcome in a fraction
of the time to other safe orthodontic
options.
Finally, with Invisalign® technolo-
gy, your dentist can take a scan of
your mouth and show you virtually
what your results will look like, from
the improved esthetics of your smile
profile to the benefits of improving
any occlusion issues that may be
causing damage to your teeth.
The next time you go to your den-
tist, ask them if they are Invisalign®
certified. Ask them if they can pro-
vide a virtual, digital smile make-
over with the use of an iTero® scan-
ner so that you can see your likely
outcome. Also ask them if you have
any occlusion issues during chewing
and if orthodontics is right for you.
One of the biggest barriers to get-
ting orthodontic treatment dentists
hear the most is that it costs too
much. Before you allow money to
get between you and a healthy, beau-
tiful smile, think about the amount
of money you spent on your last car.
That car will likely not be in your
life ten years from now. The cost of
braces or Invisalign® is a fraction of
the cost of that car, and the results
will last you a lifetime!

A Healthy, Happy Smile

is in your future.

BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETH
A scene from last year’s fair.
By Dick Myers
Editor
Most people who walk through the gates of the
132nd Calvert County Fair will not realize the mas-
sive volunteer effort it takes to put it on. That effort
not only encompasses the week of the fair but goes
on year-round. The core of that effort includes the
19-member Fair Board of Directors and their 19 associ-
ate directors. It is decidedly a labor of love.
Dotty Greene has been on the board for 30 years
and is now in charge of one of the fair’s busiest days,
Friday’s Youth Day. Green was raised on a farm in
a family for whom the fair was an important annual
event. She was a 4-H’er. “The fair and the farm life was
our way of life,” she explained.
When she graduated from Calvert County Junior-Se-
nior High School, “I knew when I went to college that
I was going to the University of Maryland and major

Dotty quit teaching to become a full-time
mother, but she later went back to grad-

She would later return to teaching Home
Economics at the new Northern High
School. She said there were a lot of im-
perfections in the school including a poor
heating system. But there was a stove in
her classroom, so it became one of the
more popular classes.
Greene taught at Northern until she
retired in 1997. Before she retired she was
asked to serve on the fair board because
of her experience. It harkened back to her
youthful experience with the fair. As a
child she would go through the fair book
“and try to have as many entries as I could
because that was the way we earned mon-
ey to buy Christmas presents.” She raised
chickens, was in the fashion show, did
canning and preserving, all the things that
represented life on a farm in Calvert Coun-
ty in those days.
“It was a very, very active life,’ Greene
said about growing up on a farm and being

During the intermission for the judges to confer,
Greene was asked that same question. She said for a
while she lived in Germany with her family. She said
when she came back through the airport and hit the
county line, “I was home. I always had the feeling it
was my home. I was brought up that way. I was a 4-H
person. I know people throughout the county.
“There’s the life of the county – the land, the beauty,
the people” she said. If she comes to the fair on open-
ing Wednesday night, she said she will see people in
clusters standing around and talking “It’s like a com-
mon ground for the whole county!”
She added, “I think people here care about other
people and they want to be with them.”

grass is growing in nicely,” said Chesapeake Hills
Golf Course Manager Michael Maher. “Although it
hasn’t reached its full potential yet, we are able to open the front nine for play. We
think our customers will be very impressed with the improvements.”

bachelor’s degree in agriculture and a commission as a
second lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps.
Upon graduation, he went on active duty with the Ma-
rines. While attending The Basic School at Quantico,
Virginia, 2nd Lt. Spence met and married Carol Todd
