Voters cast their ballots at the Eastport Community Center.

States attorney and sheriff

The retirement of former Anne Arundel States Attorney Frank Weathersbee left the door open for a number of lo-cal lawyers who want to be the countys top prosecutor.

A panel of judges appointed Anne Colt Leitess over former Weathersbee deputy Thomas

Fleckenstein, whom Weathers-bee endorsed. Anne Arundel voters will also elect a sheriff in 2014. The position is cur-rently held by Ron Bateman, a Democrat who is seeking re-election.

Annapolis mayor and city council

A few candidates want to unseat Democratic incumbent Mayor Josh Cohen, who will seek a second term in office this fall.

Republicans Robert Alan

OShea Jr. of Murray Hill and Mike Pantelides of German-town are running against Co-hen, as is downtown resident Democrat Bevin Buchheister.

City voters will also elect eight aldermen to the Annapo-lis City Council this fall. All but one of the incumbents is a Democrat. There are contested races in at least three of the eight wards.

Whomever voters select will have plenty of contentious is-sues to tackle, including plans for the controversial Crystal Spring housing complex off

PUBLIC LIFE | ELECTION


By ALLISON [email protected] political landscape in

Anne Arundel County could change significantly over the next year.

Maryland voters and espe-cially those in Anne Arundel will have plenty of choices at the ballot box in 2013 and 2014. All of the Annapolis City Coun-cil seats are up for grabs this year, as well as the mayors seat.

In 2014, county voters will choose the next county execu-tive, County Council, states at-torney and sheriff. The primary election is June 24, with the general election on Nov. 4.

Maryland voters will choose a new governor in 2014. Gov. Martin OMalley, a Democrat, is term-limited. As he leaves office with an eye on the White House, several gubernatorial hopefuls have already emerged as contenders.

Heres a look at those races.

GovernorAbout a half-dozen elected

officials, including Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, are running or considering a run for the states highest office.

Brown chose Howard County Executive Ken Ulman as his running mate. A former Prince Georges County delegate, Brown has endorsements from 70 local officials, more than half of them from Prince Georges.

Del. Heather Mizeur, a Demo-crat from Montgomery County, is also in the race. On the Re-publican side, Harford County Executive David Craig and Del. Ron George, R-Arnold, have de-clared their candidacy.

Other Democrats said to be considering bids include Mary-land Attorney General Doug Gansler and U.S. Rep. C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger of Balti-more County.

Anne Arundel county executive

Three candidates announced by summer 2013 their inten-tions to unseat Republican Lau-ra Neuman.

Neuman, who was appointed in February 2013 to fill John R. Leopolds term after he re-

signed, will seek to earn a full term in 2014.

Republicans Del. Steve Schuh of Gibson Island and County Councilman John Grasso of Glen Burnie have launched campaigns for the executive spot. Democrat Joanna Conti, who ran against Leopold in 2010 unsuccessfully, has also announced her candidacy.

The successful candidate will oversee a county government with about 4,000 employees

and an operating budget thats about $1.3 billion.

County CouncilVoters will choose their

county councilman for the next four years in 2014. The council is made up of seven representa-tives, each with his or her own geographic district.

Councilman Jamie Benoit, a Crownsville Democrat repre-senting District 4, is the only

sitting councilman who is term-limited. Councilmen can only serve two consecutive terms on the council.

A challenger has already sur-faced in District 7, hoping to unseat Republican Jerry Walk-er of Gambrills. Republican Mi-chelle Corkadel, who also ran for the seat in 2010, will com-pete for Walkers seat.

Severn Democrat Pete Smith has said he will run for the District 1 seat. Smith was

appointed to the council in 2012 after the council removed his predecessor, Daryl Jones. Republicans hold a four-person majority on the council now.

recession, said library spokes-woman Laurie Hayes. Funding cuts led the system to elimi-nate weekday morning hours for every day except Wednes-day.

Thanks to new funding in fiscal 2014, Hayes said, you can check out a book from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in any branch.

As the economy has im-proved and the leadership of the county has changed, were pretty happy with where were sitting right now, she said.

HospitalsThe countys two hospi-

tals are still economic pillars in Anne Arundel. Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie posted an operat-ing revenue of $383.7 million in fiscal 2012, while Anne Arundel Medical Center took in $578.6 million in total operating rev-enue that year.

However, lower reimburse-ment rates and federal spend-ing cuts have led Anne Arun-dels hospitals to trim their budgets. BWMC has deferred capital spending and put con-struction projects on hold, said Hospital Spokesman Kevin Cservek.

library system operating bud-get was also increased from $19 million to $20.5 million.

The countys library system saw a 17 percent hit to its bud-gets during the depths of the

recession, said library spokes-woman Laurie Hayes. Funding cuts led the system to elimi-nate weekday morning hours for every day except Wednes-day.

Thanks to new funding in fiscal 2014, Hayes said, you can check out a book from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in any branch.

As the economy has im-proved and the leadership of the county has changed, were pretty happy with where were sitting right now, she said.

HospitalsThe countys two hospi-

tals are still economic pillars in Anne Arundel. Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie posted an operat-ing revenue of $383.7 million in fiscal 2012, while Anne Arundel Medical Center took in $578.6 million in total operating rev-enue that year.

However, lower reimburse-ment rates and federal spend-ing cuts have led Anne Arun-dels hospitals to trim their budgets. BWMC has deferred capital spending and put con-struction projects on hold, said Hospital Spokesman Kevin Cservek.

AAMC plans to cut expenses by $28 million during fiscal 2014. The 4,000-employee hos-pital hopes to reduce total costs by 6 percent through the moves, said Chad Dillard, an AAMC spokesman.

glee about the funding added back to the coun-tys library budget in 2013. The County Coun-cil approved close to $750,000 in fiscal 2014 to expand Sunday hours for the 15 branches of the Anne Arundel County Public Library. The

Pop the champagne and order a steak: the economy is back.

Well, not all the way back. The Dow Jones Industrial average may be at least 7,000 points higher than five years ago. But Anne Arundel County unemployment is still hovering at post-recession levels of 6 percent and sequestration cut funding for public housing and other county programs.

The countys public institutions took a hit in the recession. Courthouses and libraries cut hours for staff and programs. Even hospitals have been forced to tighten their belts due to the economy.

Anne Arundel Countys public institutions, in general, say they have recovered from the

depths of the recession. A full return to econom-ic health, however, will still take some time.

Heres how the economy has affected some of the countys public institutions:

CourthouseA struggling economy made grant funding dif-

ficult for Anne Arundel County Circuit Court, said court administrator Douglas M. Hofstedt. The court received money from the Family Ser-vices Division from the state Administrative Office of the Court to run certain county pro-grams.

The money helped fund a self-help center for legal advice in family law cases in the county, Hofstedt said. It also financed a foreclosure

By TIM [email protected] Naval Academy in An-

napolis was founded in 1845 in an old Army post, Fort Severn. It has grown to fill a 338-acre campus nicknamed

the Yard.The school is two blocks

from the downtown city mar-ket in one direction, and the same distance from the State House in the other. Here are nine things to know about the

Naval Academy: Have your identification

when visiting. Its required to get through security.

The Naval Academy Muse-um contains artifacts and doc-uments, including a renowned collection of model ships.

John Paul Jones, one of the countrys first naval he-roes, is buried in a vault be-neath the Naval Academy Cha-pel sanctuary.

The Naval Academy Class of 2013 graduated 1,047 men and women.

Minorities made up 31 percent of the Class of 2013, making it the most diverse graduating class in academy history.

Women were first admitted to the academy in 1976, and to-

day make up about 21 percent of the student population.

Naval Academy students cannot be married.

Midshipmen can withdraw after the first two years with-out penalty. About 85 percent of midshipmen complete the four-year program.

The brigades lunchtime formation in the spring and fall is a popular attraction. It occurs, weather permitting, at about 12:05 p.m. weekdays in Tecumseh Court in front of Bancroft Hall.
