State Roundup, April 30, 2013

Lawmakers could revise stormwater fee requirements, which go into effect July 1; state Medicaid program may owe feds $10.9 million in improper claims; Lt. Gov. Brown hopes to raise state’s minority- and women-owned business contracts to 29%; Del. George considers entering race for governor; other candidates file and get endorsed; U.S. Sen. Cardin touts Maryland manufacturing; and Montgomery County and Baltimore City come out with speed camera ticket numbers.

Retiring Howard delegates endorse successor as part of big turnover
