Can we stop with the attacks? Perhaps county leadership could look to examples of positve growth from local governments that actually are successful.
Has anyone considered mingling with the government of Middletown, DE? Anyone that has lived here for more than 10 years can attest to the explosive economic improvement from what was a blip on the map, to what now can be termed explosive growth.
They must be doing something right. Go sit in on some of their meetings to see how they did it. Everyone here needs to get over themselves and get on the ball. We in Cecil County have suffered long enough.
Building homes and growing businesses is what builds a tax base that works. Raising taxes will stifle everything, without demonstrable improvement in the way things run around here. This crap is getting really old. Stop complaining, and do your jobs. There are examples that Cecil County could emulate to some degree of success.
What are they doing in Middletown, that we in Cecil County could do as well?
Most of us in lower Cecil County actually go to Middletown to do business now, because nothing like it exists anywhere near our area. But hey, keeping us labeled as tier 4 does so much for our future. Wouldn’t it be great if we were all geese, instead? We sure seem to be treated like mushrooms, county wide, given all the manure we have to tolerate from obviously inept leadership.
