There have been some rumblings in the past two or three years that moving the Harford County Farm Fair from its home since it was re-established nearly quarter of a century ago might become necessary. Certainly, the farm fair is one the more well-attended events in Harford County, with the Fourth of July festivities in Bel Air being one of the few things that's consistently a bigger draw. The farm fair is a big event and has been since it started, and it has been associated since the beginning with the Harford County Equestrian Center on Tollgate Road in Bel Air. Granted, there had been a county fair of sorts previously, but not on the scale of what's evolved at the equestrian center.

Construction is scheduled to begin next year on $84 million worth of improvements to the interchange of Interstate 95 and Route 24, and Geoffrey Hankins, who drives through the area nearly every workday, says it can't come too soon. "It's quite dangerous," the Pylesville resident said of a stretch of roadway that is considered the most congested and most accident-prone in Harford County. The situation is particularly bad in the evening, he said, when cars waiting to exit onto Route 24 from northbound I-95 are backed up to Route 152 - about two miles.

The Harford County Council delayed last night action for a week on legislation spelling out where residents can dump yard waste, and imposing a $1,000 fine and six months in jail for those who choose to flout the rules. The council held the bill over for amendments suggested by member Robert G. Cassilly to detail fines and hours of operation at recycling centers more clearly. The bill calls for disposing yard trim only at the county's disposal sites on Tollgate Road in Bel Air and at the Scarboro Landfill in Street.
