| Hagerstown, MD-The city of Hagerstown corrected a municipal spelling error Thursday, 20 years after committing it. A sign directing drivers to "Municpal Stadium" was replaced with one displaying the proper spelling, said Erik Kline, city traffic control supervisor. The sign was erected in the mid- to late 1980s, but the error went uncorrected until The (Hagerstown) Herald-Mail brought it to City Hall's attention this week, prompted by a reader's complaint. Kline said the longtime tolerance for the misspelled sign shouldn't reflect poorly on the western Maryland city of 38,000. "I think it was a mistake that was made. I don't know that it necessarily makes us look bad," Kline said.
Goosey's Gabbings...
I understand next on the city's docket is to fix that pesky outdoor plumbing issue. Someone mentioned this thing called a toilet that supposedly works better, so the Mayor is looking into it with the utmost care and concern.
Officials are deciding on whether to correct a sign that mysteriously appeared on the complainant's house which states "FACK YOU"
