She asked board members to sign the grant paperwork so she could present it to the county commissioners for approval to spend the funds.

“The purpose of the program is to lower impaired driving and underage drinking through implementation of educational programs and resources for alcohol license establishments,” Miss Helderbrand said. She said the board hopes to hold its first training session in November but that timing may slide to December because the grant notice arrived later than expected.

Helderbrand said she will circulate the training PowerPoint to board members and provide hard copies on request. She also said she planned to submit the signed paperwork to the commissioners by the next day so they could place the item on the commissioners’ agenda.","St. Mary's County alcohol board administrator told the board it received a $4,000 grant to fund training aimed at reducing impaired driving and underage drinking and requested board signatures to present the request to county commissioners.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6358855,"Cleanup in Lexington Park yields full trailers of debris, gas leak; enforcement coordinator reports DUI, public-drinking figures",193,1133000,1326000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2210906-a799e752811700354e5bdf1beb1828d2&start=1133&end=1326","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2210906-a799e752811700354e5bdf1beb1828d2/thumbnail_1133000.jpg","/articles/6358855/St-Marys-County/Maryland/Cleanup-in-Lexington-Park-yields-full-trailers-of-debris-gas-leak-enforcement-coordinator-reports-DUI-public-drinking-figures","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6358855-ad123b90182d4ad712794dba038c11fa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771152694&Signature=FgiX2qNvmCGqb5PWUb8j3l9~8ciukgDA19Ux-Se97BmcA6Njbxr5p3d7PTOqzYUnbW~K9ryqugg7rA9p5gVXH~tOYOvY~HgG2Wlpsn8xhWFhdOLXrdN~9zzPeEFdUiSts84clRlYGOhXpCQk4YV0nXNE7kVPT8Fh8LhTONonx8dYClzDHsh4WIvI37Dm8U8Csykf19wYgg4-meh8PN8YtFkk-gGLFqHagiT6G59Dvld~yxBvYTudE-f~wr~JXDAp9zFvqjj16DosUlHfF6VJi~nAEFKlW04-YsdgX4hVji9pEKoqNqJCWxSBJQkqM0rRmB1shV-udBTcMbfHnxyG3Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","County enforcement staff and volunteers carried out a cleanup of vacant properties in Lexington Park on Oct. 10 and removed seven full trailer loads of trash to the county landfill, St. Mary's County alcohol enforcement staff reported to the Alcohol Beverage Board on Oct. 13.

The enforcement coordinator said the cleanup targeted abandoned properties used for public alcohol consumption and drug use, including a site locally referred to as Lourdes Laundromat near Saint Mary's Square on Green Mills Road. The operation supplied court-ordered workers with safety vests, gloves and water and used a sheriff's office SUV and trailer to haul debris.

“We cleaned up as much as we could with the help that we had, but it's a continuing problem with people drinking in public,” the alcohol enforcement coordinator said. He described the effort as intended to reduce litter caused by public drinking and to make enforcement of violations easier because fresh containers can be linked to recent consumption.

The coordinator reported enforcement activity for September and early October: seven citations in September (four adults, three juveniles) for public consumption or related offenses; a total of nine DUI arrests in the period (seven adults, one juvenile and one driver under 21); and 30 compliance checks with no violations observed. At a sobriety checkpoint on Sept. 29 at Horseshoe Road and Buds Creek Road in Clements, 172 vehicles passed through and officers reported zero impaired drivers.

The cleanup included cooperation with the state attorney’s office, which in some cases requested that eligible offenders perform community service in lieu of fines; the coordinator said the state attorney's office approached the judge, Christy Chester, and the judge approved using court-ordered workers for cleanup. The coordinator also reported recovery of a stolen wallet (reported Sept. 28) and that latent prints are pending; an arrest warrant was active for a suspect identified as Kevin Drew Barnes.

The cleanup also uncovered a gas leak near one of the vacant buildings; Bay District (fire/utility response) secured the scene, the coordinator said. Sergeant Young supplied pizza to workers from his own funds and local businesses and passersby also assisted with the cleanup, the coordinator added.

The coordinator asked for more public reporting of public drinking incidents, saying community reports help enforcement identify fresh containers and link violations to specific individuals.","St. Mary's County enforcement teams and volunteers removed multiple trailers of debris from vacant properties in Lexington Park on Oct. 10; the county reported zero impaired drivers at a Sept. 29 sobriety checkpoint and issued citations and DUIs during the month.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6358858,"Stone Store license transfer conditionally approved pending tax clearance",663,92000,755000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2210906-a799e752811700354e5bdf1beb1828d2&start=92&end=755","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2210906-a799e752811700354e5bdf1beb1828d2/thumbnail_92000.jpg","/articles/6358858/St-Marys-County/Maryland/Stone-Store-license-transfer-conditionally-approved-pending-tax-clearance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6358858-5786dda39e5364c7c17d3395246c4ff6/orig.mp4?Expires=1771152694&Signature=B1M7k7UAkHbvk7mpITvwMFV9njq24N0mu-GyOZfIJC3ks9SaDqOG0nCeWKg-bsGVhIX2zhOjkpJhDSjtVVvegLiRI07aSFAar5DltKw97STZoHotAL-MlFMMyFTUCeVQ3df51q6q0UY8fdrWanQ~~iFeHKm06MOMtcSjX7LrEH7ve6iYVc0fciSav18ApJUYBLqhkOSH9lpXKO0d5NikKgeKZreKnFjSdFcqO6WND20JzAfjGlF2WMvwBm0MoceQu~RYchexR0KZ9tEcfqI5bQ7Nc9v8nqmh-roFremZOt33OSmEsEgsS64-6v4aZkA95AEysbCOLk1WKUBgJ5GAuQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The St. Mary's County Alcohol Beverage Board on Oct. 13, 2011 conditionally approved Robert Bradley Breese’s application to transfer a Class D beer, wine and liquor license for Stone Store Inc., 26755 Stones Corner Lane in Mechanicsville.

The transfer was approved with the condition that the county comptroller clear outstanding tax matters (a “tax release”) no later than 30 days. The board recorded the motion, received a second and voted in favor; the motion carried.

Breese, who said he recently purchased the store from Patricia Stone Oxley, told the board he does not plan major changes immediately but intends to remodel gradually, expand hours for commuters and separate on-premise and off-premise spaces in the future. “We wanna make it the little country store that doesn't look like the little country store,” Breese said. He also said the store had received “good reviews of the small changes that we have made” and that “we've painted, cleaned up the outside.”

On training and compliance, Breese said he is scheduled for a TAM class on Tuesday and that at least one current manager is TAM certified. “It is gonna be my requirement that everyone that comes to work there is TAM certified,” Breese said; he said two other employees were scheduled for the class.

Board staff confirmed there were no protests on file and that the approval is conditional on the comptroller's clearance; Breese said he expected that approval “no later than tomorrow.”
