Comments on: Cecil County Budget: Moore Boosts Exec Spending, Cuts County Council $ for Advisers; Employee Health Costs Explode https://ceciltimes.com/2015/04/cecil-county-budget-moore-boosts-her-exec-spending-cuts-county-council-for-independent-advisers-employee-heath-costs-explode/ News and Views for Cecil County and the Eastern Shore of Maryland Fri, 25 Nov 2022 14:21:21 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.38 By: Ron Lobos https://ceciltimes.com/2015/04/cecil-county-budget-moore-boosts-her-exec-spending-cuts-county-council-for-independent-advisers-employee-heath-costs-explode/#comment-31923 Sun, 03 May 2015 13:58:03 +0000 https://ceciltimes.com/?p=4383#comment-31923 I can’t believe so little has changed since Cecil County took on Charter Government. If health care expenses have risen so much in the past year, maybe it is time to do what we do in the private sector and tell the employees they will have to pay a larger portion out of their own salary to cover it. Why should I have to pay for my own increase in health insurance and theirs?

Also, maybe it is time to tighten our belt on all government employees. Currently, a Cecil County employee gets 20 days vacation, 12 holidays off, 12 days sick leave and 5 personal days off, all with pay. And now the County executive expects me to pick up their increase in health care expenses. I think not.

I am asking the County Executive and all 5 Council members to honor their written promise to the citizens of Cecil County and pass a budget that doesn’t increase our taxes. “Remember, A Promise is a Promise”. We are about to find out how honorable all of these elected officials really are.

WAY TOO MUCH PLUS A COUPLE HUNDRED BUCKS. council needs to send this budget back to Tari Moore with a bunch of red Xs on it. She then needs to give it back to Winston Robinson and tell him “You’re Fired!”.

He is a big city liberal democrat tax and spender that I am sure is behind this budget. I feel sorry for Al Wein who has to read this garbage into the record. RISE UP PEOPLE,BE HEARD!

Increase taxes, increased spending; it’s got to stop. Tari Moore is out of control and needs to be stopped in her tracks. County Council members have the authority to cut her budget and hopefully they will do their job and cut considerably.

We do not need any more of the taxpayers money ending up in the pocket of the County. A couple hundred bucks to her may be pocket change but it sure is a lot of money to those of us on fixed incomes.
