Small Towns of Crisfield and Leonardtown Seek Developers to Keep Their Small Town Feel

By KEN ROSSIGNOL

THE CHESAPEAKE TODAY

 The lure of the Chesapeake Bay is greeted each day with breezes and waves lapping at the shoreline in front of a small subdivision of waterfront homes on Daugherty Creek at the tidewater town of Crisfield in Somerset County on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. A common link to the once-bustling port still important in the seafood industry to the overdeveloped Waldorf area in Charles County on the Western Shore lies with one man once involved with the tidy Hammock Pointe.

That man is Mark Vogel who has been at the center of development and acquiring politicians – the handmaidens of developers – for four decades.

The annual Millard Tawes Crab Festival at Crisfield is held next to Hammock Pointe, renamed by Vogel after he decided to buy the land from a group of Crisfield real estate speculators that he met through the son of the then Maryland Speaker of the House Clayton Mitchell.

 The Speaker and his son were in the real estate brokerage business and while at the Tawes Crab and Clam Bake in 1988, Mitchell was introduced to the owners of Harbor Pointe by Delegate Daniel Long, a Democrat from Somerset County who later became the County’s Circuit Court Judge.

Speaker Mitchell convinced the landowners of the 108 acres of land, already subdivided and connected to sewer and water, to allow him to be their broker.

Speaker Mitchell made a cool $100,000 real estate commission on the $1.7 million deal which wasn’t hidden from view as many fees slipped to Maryland politicians.

Mitchell said it was an honest transaction and told the Baltimore Sun that he didn’t know Mark Vogel from “…Jack Beans at the time. I had a client who wanted to sell a piece of property. That’s my duty, to find a buyer.”

The House of Delegates Ethics Committee chairman said that since there were no state contracts involved with Mitchell’s company and no gain for Mitchell there was not a violation of ethics rules.

The Sun didn’t take issue with the claim of Speaker Mitchell that he didn’t know Vogel, who was a little hard to miss in the world of politics in 1988 as he owned the Rosecroft racetrack in Prince George’s County and Delmarva Downs at Ocean City. As all crucial legislation affecting the financial impact on the tracks goes through the General Assembly, the statement of Speaker Mitchell is right up there with all the famous pronouncements of Maryland politicians such as Spiro Agnew’s ‘nolo contendre.’

The deal for Mitchell might have been perfectly legal, but he didn’t have to go out of his way to sound like Boss Tweed of Tammany Hall or the convicted Prince Georges County Executive Jack Johnson.

At the same time that Crisfield gained a new strategic partner in land development, Vogel set his sights on an 800-acre parcel of land next to Ocean Pines in Worcester County that needed approvals from the state agencies.

 Long told a Baltimore Sun reporter that “We were tickled to death to have a major developer with name recognition come in. It looks like a shot in the arm for Somerset County.”

 Long told the Baltimore Sun that if anyone thinks that the Speaker will use his political power to help Vogel’s racetracks is wrong. “It’s a cheap shot if anyone thinks that will happen.”

 Long is now retired from the circuit court, and that’s a good thing, given his level of sophistication. But he was the cream of the crop for Somerset County and served his County well over the years as a delegate and judge.

As of February of 1990, none of the twenty-six lots in Hammock Point were sold.
In 2022, only fifteen lots were built upon while the rest were advertised for sale by individuals, with the most recent sale of a non-waterfront lot in 2020 for $27,250 while a waterfront lot with a home went for over $400,000.   Maryland land records show that Vogel’s adventure in Crisfield resulted in the local entrepreneurs James Dodson and E. Scott Tawes winding up with the property. They began selling the lots in 1994 for prices around $22,000.

Crisfield received state grants to fund fixing up the exteriors of small businesses, shops, offices, and bars, requiring that half of the grant money be spent on exterior modifications to rid the town of the crusty ghost town appearance gained over decades of rust and dust. The other half of the grant money can be spent on interior improvements.

The Millard Tawes Crab and Clam Bake, held annually to honor the town’s First Citizen who was Governor from 1959 to 1967, continues to rake in money from hordes of politicians and dealmakers like Mark Vogel. The savvy developers show up to rub shoulders with the up-and-coming generation of politicians, find financial grease from lobbyists, learn from the lawyers who want everyone to know how smart they are, and appear to be important to clueless reporters who are glad to get some free beer and crabs courtesy of “press tickets” slipped to them when organizers want some publicity for the big show.

The fancy yachts and sport fishers cruise down the Chesapeake from Annapolis, Solomon’s, and even just a couple hours down the Potomac from Washington. The Crisfield Airport is busy with small planes landing, and the parking lot at Somers Cove Marina fills up with Jags, BMWs, Tesla’s, and all manner of expensive SUVs and Mercedes.

A large fence separates the jewels of the auto industry from the nearby low-income housing project that provides the offspring of generations of seafood workers from the heyday of King Oyster a free or cheap place to live. Many of those residents find pick-up work for the big Festival for a couple of days while the entry to the event is for the ticket holders.

Their predecessors lived in company town housing to serve the massive seafood packing houses that sent trainloads of oysters, fish, and crabs off to the market. Oysters were so plentiful that the Pennsylvania Railroad built a track from Crisfield to the mainline that reached Cape Charles, which connected with the train barges from Norfolk and then roared up the Delmarva Peninsula to Wilmington on to New York.

Drug-fueled crime and seafood continue to be the most important economic activities in Crisfield.

The current concern of the Hogan Administration over the ability to have foreign workers get entry visas to work in seafood processing plants reveals the lack of interest in working among the local population who have spent generations on the public dole. The town is excited about a new mural being painted on a building depicting the scenes of packinghouse workers in this company crab town.

Under the Festival’s large tents, political futures are planned, crabs are cracked, and beer flows. This gathering is the political elite, the money guys, and government power brokers. Missing are the citizens of Maryland that pay the taxes, staff educational institutions and government agencies, own small businesses, work in retail stores and factories and operate the many farms all over Maryland. 

THE NEED FOR CAMPAIGN DONATIONS

Power is an exclusive club and run by strict rules to keep it that way. One of the essential rules is that of the need for campaign financing. 

Candidates decide to throw their hats in the ring and immediately began to target groups and individuals to whom they will cater their views and promises to exact the funds needed to buy billboards, send mailers, buy ads on online news and entertainment outlets, and purchase TV time.   To a much lesser degree than ever, they also plan ads in print media and radio stations.

The lawmakers carve out special rules in the strict regulations they enact for roadside signs to allow for brightly colored campaign signs to litter nearly every street corner in the state.

This effort is all to instruct the public on how to cast their ballots, as without the advertising, they would never have an inkling of which candidate is best.

Who pays for all this?

One guy who steps up to the plate with his checkbook is Mark Vogel.

BACK TO THE PRESENT, and a little of the past IN CHARLES COUNTY

What takes place when the cultural and demographic shifts take place in counties and cities? The practice of practical political corruption spreads past ethnic political clubs and closed circles of Poles, Irish, Asian, Italians, and Anglo politicos to the next on the totem pole – the blacks. Everybody gets a turn in the barrel.

Charles County’s good old boy crew put their own people into the power spots for the past fifty years. They appointed all those who decided the rules of the zoning and sewer and approved the massive St. Charles community along with dozens of smaller ones. The farmers and the successful businessmen, along with a couple of women once in a while, such as Eleanor Carrico and Sally Jameson. The establishment of both parties won the commissioners and legislative races and kept Charles County involved in state deals, funding, and decisions on roads and making sure no new ones got built and the infernal Metro never ventured into the County. To a large extent, they were successful. The good old boys decided where the developments would go and large amounts of money changed hands, some of it even legally and reported as campaign contributions.

To be sure that an occasional nosy state cop and investigators from the Attorney General’s Office stayed in Annapolis and Baltimore, the old boy network also controlled the Governor and who was in charge of the State Police. Crime was important, while bribes were just a way of doing business in Maryland.

It was okay to have commissions for such endeavors as racetracks. Horses were good, gambling was fun, everyone needs to get a cut. Maryland’s racetracks and their connection to politics, crime, and corruption were the things that headlines were made of for decades.

Now, in 2022, on Rt. 301, Waldorf no longer has a ten-mile stretch of flashing neon signs advertising slot machine parlors, gambling casinos, and wide-open nightlife with clubs and brothels next to dozens of motels.

Also, on Rt. 301 more such operations existed including one with a very favorite gambler, Bennie Swann, running a significant private lending business out of his Moonlight Inn, that can even today strike fear into the hearts of the complicit. One of the big slot machine operators, Phil Gray, stretched his long arm down to Lexington Park where the Patuxent River Naval Air Station had a mini–Las Vegas bloom outside the main gate. Another two dozen casinos and slots parlors spread out over the boomtown and out to every little village bar and store.

The goody-two-shoes of liberal Montgomery County and others in the General Assembly, such as the late Senator J. Frank Raley Jr., of St. Mary’s County, finally got their way and outlawed slot machines in 1966 and left the Southern Maryland region with a sagging economy. This was due mainly to the fact that most lawmakers are a bunch of hypocritical boobs who never consider consequences to their ideas of the moment and lousy plan of the day. 

The more self-promoting of the bunch began to form various groups with three-word names and held meetings, sought state grants for hiring consultants, and held banquets followed by cigars and poker games. The results of their meetings were press releases issued to the small newspapers and maybe a reporter showed up to take their photos.

The solutions were divided highways, orderly zoning laws, more public sewer systems, and encouraging commercial construction to expand the tax base and lower the burden on the homeowner. Someone threw in better schools and a junior college. The privilege of selecting the people to populate the planning boards to make the decisions over who profits from favorable zoning designations was that of the old boy network politicians. Those were the people that Mark Vogel was interested in acquiring to serve his empire.

 The first bloviating about retaining rural heritage started creeping into the vocabulary even though hardly anyone wanted to do so. The whole point of their efforts was to carve up farms into lots, extend sewer lines to them and let the farmers, engineers, developers, and realtors make their money before the builders jumped in, wallet first and provide lots of moola to the politicians and it was their just reward for having to go to all those meetings. Then the hick county of Charles would have new shopping centers, apartment complexes, a mall, big-box extravaganza, sprawling subdivisions, even a minor league baseball team, and stadium.

MARK VOGEL’S ACQUISITIONS TRANSCEND POLITICAL PARTY, RACE, AND ETHNICITY

Mark Vogel is a developer who has been extraordinary in his chosen profession. He makes legal donations under the scope of the law which is dutifully reported on the campaign finance filings of his chosen candidates who can help his business the most.

One of those newly ascended black Democrats who have busted through the glass ceiling of Charles County politics and became the first black to be elected county commissioner president is an attorney, Rueben Collins. Collins has also attracted the attention of Mark Vogel, who has added Collins to his list of politicians to contribute to their campaigns in exchange for warm fuzzy feelings. 

Another glass ceiling breaker in Charles County is Senator Arthur Ellis who whipped the six-term incumbent and pillar of the good old boy network in Charles County, Senator Mac Middleton in the 2018 election. Now Ellis is on the Christmas Club of Mark Vogel.

Neither of these politicians was smart enough to venture into the background of Mark Vogel and his relationships to banks, cocaine, donations to very crooked politicians, and racetracks. Maybe, they did and just said, all heck, all that stuff is in the past. If they concluded that outcome, they are right, it was in the past. But Vogel may be the only one of their contributions that got a plea deal from the Commonwealths’ Attorney of Fairfax County, Virginia, that was likely never given to low-level black drug dealers. It’s a fairly safe bet that Vogel is the only one of their contributors that had his helicopter seized by the feds who said he was flying cocaine to parties he hosted in Atlantic City for bigwigs.

It is also true, that Vogel has been a legitimate businessman and developer of scores of projects, most of which were successful while some were not due to the ups and downs of recessions and the national economy.

 He has a right to donate money to politicians, they just don’t have to accept those donations. 

Vogel’s money spends the same as that of funds raised by small business owners, accountants, liquor store operators, forklift drivers, teachers, or ironworkers. However, none of them likely had a helicopter they owned seized by the feds in a drug investigation. When the politicians take his money, they show they want to be bought. Vogel is making an Acquisition. They have been acquired.

MARK VOGEL SETS HIS SIGHTS ON TUDOR HALL IN LEONARDTOWN

Vogel is a guy who can stand on a pier at the foot of the hill overlooking Breton Bay at the site of a once-prosperous steamship landing and fuel oil depot and a large restaurant and notorious redneck bar and envision a $60 million development. 

The town fathers of Leonardtown were excited, the one town mother, Council Member Becky Profit, was smarter than the rest of them and said no Town of Leonardtown tax dollars will be diverted to Vogel’s grand scheme called Tudor Hall Village.

In December of 1999, with new developers in place, the State of Maryland approved $5.5 million in funding to a special corporation set up by the Town of Leonardtown, called Leonardtown Recreation Inc. which is still listed in good standing with Maryland. The Board of Public Works approved a $1 million loan and a $2 million grant from the Maryland Industrial and Commercial Redevelopment Fund to the Maryland Economic Development Corp., which will lend the money to Leonardtown Recreation Inc. for development costs associated with the golf course and conference center.

Governor Glendening announced that the Board of Public Works also approved $2.5 million in Department of Natural Resources Program Open Space funds for the project.

In announcing the funding, Gov. Glendening cited the need to expand the state’s tourism industry.

“The Tudor Hall project will be an economic boon for St. Mary’s County, by creating jobs, attracting tourists, and building a world-class resort and conference center to serve the worldwide links that are brought together by the Patuxent River Naval Air Station and the region’s growing economy,” the Governor said in a statement.

The money made available through the Economic Development Corp., together with funding from the Town of Leonardtown, will be used for development costs that include land improvements, construction, furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Title to the public land portion of the project will be held by the Town of Leonardtown and Leonardtown Recreation Inc., which will own and manage the improvements.

A Pig’s Ear Became a Silk Purse

Whatever happened to the money from the State of Maryland? 

Former Mayor J. Harry “Chip” Norris who guided Leonardtown for many years explained that the town ended up with the waterfront property along Breton Bay from the wharf up to MacIntosh Run along with other parcels of the Tudor Hall Village. While some of the parcel is indeed swampy and provide important grasses for sea life and waterfowl, there are areas of the parcel that are zoned for development as well.

 Norris pointed out that the town ended up with over 140 acres of land and is in a good position to accept a development plan that melds with the ideas of the town.

 Norris was the driving force behind acquiring the old State Highway garage and adding a canoe and kayak launch on MacIntosh Run with parking. The launch ramp enables water enthusiasts to travel down the stream several miles to Breton Bay where they can reach parking areas at the wharf for retrieval. Norris says he is really happy to see how busy the Winery is at the old garage with crowds using the picnic area and patronizing the local vineyards which retail their local wines in the building.

A strategic plan for 2010 the Town of Leonardtown agreed upon included the advantage of linking Fenwick Street through the Tudor Hall Village and then out to meet Rt. 5.

The Mark Vogel Tudor Hall plan for a golf course, hotel, and lots of mixed-use commercial and 600 units of residential development still floats around in the 2019 master plan of Leonardtown, with fancy words like walkspace, streetscape, placemaking, wayfinding, and other terms that float around a long and likely very costly strategic plan. It is a nice plan and Vogel would certainly appreciate the potential should be able to find the money.

Politicians doing what they do best…

The deal Vogel cooked up before and served up as a stew to find state economic development and tourism money added for flavor ended up fleecing a bunch of folks who put up $150 grand each and lost it all as the project morphed into a new developer and eventually into a bankruptcy court. 

Still, the very earnest town leaders of 2022 have this vision, a plan, a wonderful set of small ideas to enhance Leonardtown but miss the mark in two important ways.

First, the plan fails to recognize that the only way to tie the town center together with the gorgeous town waterfront park is either to bring in earthmovers for about a year to excavate the steep hill from Breton Bay to the town on top of the hill.

What visitor to Leonardtown wouldn’t want to take a trip out to St. Clements Island on this fine vessel?

Or they could ask the town of Colonial Beach where they bought their trolley bus and get a couple of them to circulate around and take folks all over the town, down the hill, and back up the hill, which would also make use of parking areas other than down at the water.

 Maybe the Leonardtown Council could set up a focus group to imagine a route for a couple of trolly buses.

THE “BRAND” HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE WATERFRONT AT LEONARDTOWN WHARF

While ‘branding’ is ballyhooed around by the nice folks trying to make their town better, more attractive to city folks to move to capture that small-town lifestyle, they simply miss the point that the way the first people arrived in boats. Leonardtown needs to have a vendor operate tour boats for visits out to the state park at St. Clements Island and be able to cruise and lunch, just like the successful operations that leave Crisfield on a daily basis and go to Smith Island. 

A Leonardtown-based cruise could take folks down the Potomac and back and then visitors could board trolleys to take them up the hill to the town square which is surrounded by dining spots. The town has been seeing huge crowds arrive to watch boat races and tour historic Oyster Buyboats. A regular cruise vessel operating out of the Port of Leonardtown would give the town a much better brand than a beach day with cornhole contests on the Town Square.

Vogel stood on Leonardtown Wharf in 1996 and saw what was possible. 

Now the plan of the Leonardtown folks is UpToDate with fancy gimmicks but misses the two key components which would attract land-locked visitors from ‘up the road’ for a great river trip instead of coming down for an ‘event’ on the town square which includes playing cornhole and listening to a nice little band. 

It’s simple.

Request proposals from contractors for a boat cruise service from the wharf and get a state grant to get a trolley bus. The 2010 Leonardtown Strategic Plan called for such a trolley system to connect the town parts and pieces and the wharf, but, hells bells, Rome wasn’t built in a day.

A system of trolleybuses could link the waterfront area to the available parking, the Town Square, the shopping centers, and even to the Leonardtown Library which for some unfathomable reason that was concocted in a public hearing held on Christmas Eve years ago, in 2008, out on a farm at the edge of town. Just another one of the Fishy Deals with the landowner and a servant politician.

The 2019 Strategic Plan also envisions an area for entertainment. The James Adams Floating Theatre provided the entertainment for decades, traveling from one port to another on the Chesapeake. With the ability of the Town of Leonardtown to draw on a variety of grants for tourism, arts, and education, it should be possible to acquire a barge and build a new floating theatre or build one on the shore at the Wharf and wait for a hurricane to learn if it will float.

BACK TO THE BELTWAY IN PG FOR MARK VOGEL

Mark Vogel has now linked up with another venture firm to build a project of 200-unit townhouses on a site near the Beltway and the new Suitland Parkway interchange. The deal with Sora Ventures envisions other projects and soon there will be fresh acquisitions of other politicians to grease the skids of government approval processes.
