Does this mean we might get something back or did they shoot this down.

(CECIL TIMES responds: Pam, you can file an amended Maryland tax return, going back up to three years, to claim a refund on the Cecil County portion of the “piggyback” income tax. You still have to pay the state income tax, which already gave you a credit for taxes paid to Delaware. You can contact the Maryland Comptroller’s office for information about how to go about filing an amended return.)

Drug Czar (that lives in Delaware) and the salary that accompanies it. I mean he’s doing such a bang up job for our local entities– there is really no need for that position, especially when he is the treasurer of a Non-Profit. Hmmm??

At a previous meeting with the Council, Brooks had indicated the total costs would be $20 to $25 million, but on Tuesday the representatives claimed a total cost of about $11 million. ??? So many people need to be fired.
