Comptroller Peter Franchot's (D-Takoma Park) attempt to move a Board of Public Works meeting, which is scheduled for the same day as the annual J. Millard Tawes Crab and Clam Bake has officially failed. But the attempt leaves open the possibility of holding future BPW meetings in locations other than Annapolis.
On June 26, Franchot sent a letter to Gov. Martin O'Malley (D-Baltimore) and state Treasurer Nancy Kopp (D-Bethesda), requesting that the BPW meeting be rescheduled, seeing as it interfered with the Tawes Crab and Clam Bake.
