Transparency in Development
of Middle School Property
Dear Commissioners,
The League of Women Voters of Calvert County
published a report on county government transparency in October 2014. The report expressed specific
concerns about the process for developing the middle school property in the New Town District.
County government, using tax payer dollars,
funded a charrette to fully understand citizen interests in the development of the Middle School property. County residents participated in good faith.
Therefore, our County government has an obligation to explain to citizens where proposals for the
middle school property reflect and diverge from the
charrette findings and why. It is reasonable to expect the County government to communicate such
information to its citizens effectively and openly. In
fact, public trust in elected and appointed officials

Paul Louis
McClanahan, 80
Paul Louis McClanahan, 80, of Dowell, Md.,
died Dec. 30, 2015 at his
residence.
He was born on July 19,
1935 in Waterbury, Md.,
to the late Alpha Omega
McClanahan and Noda E.
Rinker.
Leaving school after the eighth grade,
he worked a variety of jobs (milk carton factory in Cleveland, Ohio, Chevrolet factory in Ohio) before joining the
U.S. Marine Corps in 1954. Looking to
travel, he volunteered for any and all assignments in order to see the world. Unfortunately, this garnered him a stint in
boot camp in Parris Island, a short stint
in Camp LeJeune, with a final assignment of the Supply Depot in Albany, Ga.
He left the Marines in 1956.
From there, he worked the strip mines
of Pennsylvania, became an apprentice
bricklayer in New Jersey, and then a
family relative helped him to get a job
with PIC Masonry in the Washington,
D.C. area. At PIC, he met Jack Cox and
they started doing side jobs together.
While in Washington, D.C., he met
a telephone operator, Margaret. In a
smooth move, he walked past her, kicked
her chair, and that is how it all started.
They married on Jan. 11, 1958. After a

retiring to Lusby, Maryland in 1991, he

30 years as an engineer and administrator at the Department of Defense,
primarily with Harry Diamond Laboratories in Washington, D. C. and Silver

Tri-County Animal
Shelter Trying Hard
Improvements Underway
By Crista Dockray
Staff Writer
Recommendations
Regarding The Future
Of Animal Sheltering
Services For Calvert County
Option 1. Do nothing. Continue to participate in a tri-county
approach to animal care and control. Make no capital investment
in the Tri-County shelter, and no action to establish a stand-alone
Calvert shelter.
Option 2. Replace the Tri-County Animal Shelter with a modern state-of-the art shelter which is comprehensively designed to
provide the proper resources for animal care and adoption services to the citizens of three Southern Maryland communities.
The time has passed when add-ons and band-aids are sufficient to buy more time. While we recognize that there are fiscal
constraints with any capital project, we feel that the TCAS has
reached a point where we need to move forward in planning for
a new TCAS. There is room on the existing site to build a new
shelter, so no site acquisition would be required.
Option 3. Begin the process to move forward with plans for a
stand-alone Calvert animal shelter, rebranded as Calvert Animal
Care and Adoption Center. Immediately begin a search for an
appropriate site, place a line item in the FY 2017 budget for A&E,
and put construction in the CIP.
The Tri-County concept made sense in 1960 when our populations were smaller and a joint effort resulted in economy of scale.
However, growth has overtaken that concept.
We firmly believe that the time has come for Calvert County
to have its own Calvert Animal Shelter, rebranded as the Calvert
Animal Care and Adoption Center. It should be centrally located
in Calvert County, and convenient to the Animal Control staff.
It should be on a large enough parcel to house the animal care
facility, a barn, and outside animal exercise area at a minimum.
Administration of the Shelter would be the sole purview of Calvert County Government, and under the administrative control of
Calvert County Government.
Information taken from the first annual report to the BOCC by
the Calvert Member of the Tri-County Shelter Advisory Board
provided by Linda Kelley
that this shelter is understaffed, dealing with an antiquated facility, and criticized quite often, but they
are working with what they are given.
Im not really critical of the staff because its a
tough job, its just a tough job, said Kelley.
Kim Stevens, TCAS Shelter Manager, informed
the County Times that the bully breed policy, which
has been in effect for over 25 years, is in place for
two main reasons. The first is that TCAS does not
have the staff to perform home checks. This means
that they cannot go to the home of a person wanting
to adopt a bully breed to make sure that this dog
would not be misused or abused.
Second, they have this policy in place because
some members of the public believe these breeds to
be dangerous.
This does not mean a death sentence for the dogs,
however. Every dog that comes in that is considered
a bully breed by the shelter is evaluated like any
other dog and given a behavior assessment.
The behavior assessment allows the staff members to measure the aggression of the dog and its
adoptability by giving it food then taking it away,
petting it all over, putting it on a leash, introducing
it to another dog, looking at its teeth, and gently tugging it on the ear.
If the dog passes this test, he is considered adoptable and can be placed with a rescue organization.

Saturday, Feb. 6 is the place to get a
haircut. Gattons Barber Shop, a family-owned business, is holding an event
appropriately named Buzz Off Cancer for Nolan. Nolan Scully is the son
of Leonardtowns Fire Chief, Jonathan
Scully who was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma a rare cancer that affects
soft tissue, bone, or connective tissue.
Nolan was diagnosed with this disease
mid-November, and as the chemotherapy became more intense, he began to
lose his hair. The community can show
their support for Nolan and his family by
coming in anytime during the day, even
6 a.m. onwards as long as business is
still coming. Those who might be afraid
to cut off their precious locks can get
any haircut, all proceeds will be donated
to the Scully family regardless if you
get a buzz cut or not. Everyone is free to
stop by to show love and solidarity. For
more information, call Gattons Barber

BLEACHERS
A View From The
Resolution:
No Empty Stadiums
By Ronald N. Guy Jr.
Contributing Writer
Its resolution time, an exercise to
complete with care. As most people
are their own worst critics, an honest personal critique immediately
threatens the New Years inherent
optimism. In his classic Happy
Xmas (War is Over), John Lennon
captured the dilemma when he sang,
So this is Christmas; And what
have you done; Another year older;
And a new one just begun. Precisely. What have we done, beyond
age another year? A personal evaluation includes many tough questions.
Was I kind? Selfless? Patient? Was
I a good citizen and steward of the
planet? Did I dedicate enough time
to family and personal relationships?
Are my finances and career in order?
Am I healthy spiritually (however
you define that term)? Physically?
Am I happy? Satisfied? Content?
Considering that brutal selfexamination, the likely answer to
Lennons question What have you
done? is not enough, a conclusion
that anoints New Years the battle
ground between an inadequate past
and a hopeful future. Before that
dark cloud envelops your tender 2016
sky, consider an alternative: Instead
of an introspective search for a 2015
failure to correct, look to the external world for inspiration and resolutions. Its less personal. Lessdepressingand maybe more productive. Where in the external world?
How about a few lessons from our
local teams? They offered plenty to
ponder.
Washington Nationals
Last spring, the Nats were a chic
pick to win the World Series. Bryce
Harper even infamously asked,
Wheres my ring? before the season. Reality: The Nats finished 8979 and missed the playoffs. Perhaps
a bit more humility, an acknowledgement of the uncertainty of tomorrow,
would be wise.
Baltimore Ravens
Injuries, gut-wrenching losses
it was an awful year for Poes blackbirds. The Ravens had every right
to quit. By all accounts they should
have quit. Waved the white flag.
Tapped out. They never did, competing to the end. Bravo. Adversity
reveals character. Youll encounter
the former in 2016, let it reveal your
mettle too.
