		<description><![CDATA[COMMENTARY A majority of the Cecil County Council seems to be worrying about picking up peanuts, as it reviews the proposed Fiscal 2018 budget, while ignoring the elephants in the room: the need to invest in the county’s future and to work harder and smarter to address the local opioid drug epidemic. Some of the Council’s preliminary budget actions reflected the newbie factor of two new Council members with a lot to learn about county government and the budget process while other efforts displayed some grandstanding and gimmickry by a veteran Councilor who should, and does, know better. Some nickel-and-dime decisions, like cutting a paltry $29,100 item that would have added a part-time small business librarian to the county library system, made no sense from an investment standpoint. The lone small business librarian in the county has been publicly credited by numerous start-ups for their success, while state and national library agencies have recognized the county library for its innovative efforts despite not having added any other new staffers since 2009, even as public demand for services has skyrocketed.

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County has adequate high-speed Internet services for businesses in the Route 40 growth corridor and no county expenditures or initiatives are needed, according to a report by the administration of County Executive Tari Moore. But Moore’s report excluded residential customers and businesses located elsewhere in the county and came at the same time that southern Cecil County residents learned their main Internet service provider had gone out of business, abandoning local customers. Wavevision, formerly known as Bay Broadband, suddenly went out of business about two weeks ago without even telling customers of its action. The wireless radio-waves transmission service for years has been the only source of broadband in much of southern Cecil County. A Chestertown company, Delmarva WiFi, is now scrambling to serve local residents. Moore’s administration was responding, in part, to a special task force—created last year at the initiative of County Council President Robert Hodge (R-5)—that drew far different conclusions in its 41-page report and advocated a pro-active role by the county government to expand broadband (high-speed Internet) services as both a business development and quality of life issue.
