Report echoes Inspector General's criticism

Former Planning Board Chairman Royce Hanson's harsh report to the County Council "echoed criticism from County Inspector General Thomas J. Dagley in a Jan. 12 memo to Council President George L. Leventhal, County Executive Douglas M. Duncan and Planning Board Chairman Derick P. Berlage," the Gazette reports.

"In the memo, Dagley detailed his investigation of problems, including possible criminal action, at the Planning Department stemming from the summer’s revelations that hundreds of height, setback and amenities violations were found at the Clarksburg Town Center."
