Furthermore, documents suggest she may come back later for even more taxpayer money to buy a second animal facility. In addition, the Council and Moore have settled on two citizen appointees to a Moore-administration controlled Animal Control Oversight Board. Neither man has any previous experience in Cecil County animal control matters. And new fiscal reports show that A Buddy for Life, Inc., currently providing animal services under a county contract, suddenly spent $7,800 in “maintenance funds” in the last three months [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES SPECIAL REPORT Cecil County Executive Tari Moore has signed options to buy two animal kennels—one a small private facility in a residential area in North East and also the much larger Cecil County SPCA shelter in Chesapeake City—at $400,000 each, but has not decided which site, or both, to buy at taxpayer expense. Also, Moore has now cut in half an earlier request for an extra $24,000 to boost an unbid, six-month contract with the current Buddy for Life animal control contractor to care for animals—after CECIL TIMES exposed a hidden loophole in her contract extension that would have put even more money in the group’s pocket despite a Council budget cut. Moore held a secret, closed door session with the County Council on Tuesday, 1/12/16 at which she outlined two shelter purchase options her administration has signed. Earlier in the day, at a public worksession of the County Council, several members criticized the administration’s unilateral six-month extension of a previous three-year contract with A Buddy for Life, Inc. for animal control and animal sheltering operations at the rented Rainwood Kennels in Elkton—and Moore’s plan to boost payments to the Buddies by $24,000 over the county budget [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County faced a midnight deadline for the expiration of its animal control contract with the Cecil County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Inc. (CCSPCA), with animal services response turned over to the county’s 911 call center as of early Friday morning. County officials hustled to assemble an interim program in the final hours before the turnover, including a plan to require law enforcement officers to take time out from their regular duties to evaluate “emergency” animal problems. The county had hired an unlicensed commercial kennel, Canine Care, in North East to house stray animals but after inquiries by Cecil Times on Tuesday, county officials sprung into action and summoned the owner, William Simmons, to Elkton on Wednesday afternoon to obtain the necessary license. After Cecil Times inquiries showed no one from the county’s interim animal control committee had bothered to inspect the facility or verify its available kennels, Richard Brooks, the county’s Emergency Services director, was dispatched to view the facility on Shady Beach Rd. County Administrator Al Wein said on Thursday that Canine Care was now licensed and Brooks’ visit determined there were a total of 30 kennel spaces available on the site.
