In a surprising move on Wednesday afternoon, the Director of the Frederick Community Action Agency Mike Spurrier was escorted from his office by heavy security.

Dr. Robert Mannis, who is the Chairman of the Board  of the Community Action Agency, was not happy with the removal process.

Frederick City’s Human Resources Director, Karen Paulson, Frederick City’s Manager of Risk, Joe Lindstrom, and Capt. Dwight Sommers with Frederick Police ushered Spurrier out of the building.

On October 16th city officials decided to let Spurrier go and gave him 28-days to wrap up his affairs at the agency. The Mayor and Board of Alderman will now choose the next director.

Spurrier had been Director of the Community Action Agency since 1988.

The Spotted Lanternfly causes serious damage in trees including oozing sap, wilting, leaf curling, and tree dieback. In addition to tree damage, when spotted lanternflies feed, they excrete a sugary substance, called honeydew, that encourages the growth of black sooty mold. This mold is harmless to people, however it causes damage to plants. In counties infested and quarantined for Spotted Lanternfly, residents report hundreds of these bad bugs that affect their quality of life and ability to enjoy the outdoors during the spring and summer months. Spotted Lanternflies will cover trees, swarm in the air, and their honeydew can coat decks and play equipment.

In addition to damaging trees and affecting quality of life, the Spotted Lanternfly is a huge threat to Pennsylvania agriculture industry. They threaten billions of economic impact and hundreds of thousands of jobs for those in the grapes, apple, hops, and hardwood industries.
