HEBRON TAXPAYERS SPENDING BIG BUCKS ON ATTORNEYS BUT CAN'T PREVAIL IN COURT? WHAT'S GOING ON?

Several months ago Maryland Dept. of Environment fined Hebron $7600 in penalties for alleged violations at its Waste Water Treatment Plant and a hearing was held on this with Hebron's attorney on board. The decision came down against Hebron and Hebron didn't like it, so the Town appealed it to the Circuit Court for Wicomico County.

Well, guess, what, the Circuit Court just ruled agreeing with the first Judge's decision and Hebron did not win. Wanna bet that Hebron will appeal this too?

Questions that Hebron taxpayers should be asking:

Questions--What is Hebron's track record when it has its day in court (including Waller Landing)?

Bigger Question--How much have Hebron taxpayers spent on attorneys' fees vs. cost of the MDE penalties?
