		<description><![CDATA[The long battle royale over boosted tolls at the Hatem Bridge that links Cecil County to the rest of Maryland has taken on a new twist: the state wants to eliminate cash toll payment lanes and force motorists to use electronic EZ Pay transponders—or face a $12 fee, including a $4 penalty over the current $8 cash toll. But Del. David Rudolph (D-35) said Tuesday he plans to introduce legislation in the General Assembly to stop the state proposal in its tracks. Deborah Sharpless, deputy Executive Secretary of the Maryland Transportation Authority, told the Cecil County Council on Tuesday that the state wants to eliminate the toll booths at the Route 40 span that links Cecil and Harford Counties as a cost-saving measure that would also improve traffic flow over the bridge. She justified the proposal by saying that 91 percent of the motorists now using the bridge pay tolls by EZ Pass electronic transponders. In 2011, the MTA proposed elimination of a traditional $10 a year decal for unlimited trips over the bridge and initially insisted upon a mandatory EZ Pass transponder plan that would have forced Cecil County residents to pay $36 a year, plus $1.50 a month [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They ran for the Cecil County Republican Central Committee in 2010 as the “Fiscal Conservative” slate but the latest campaign finance report to the state Board of Elections shows a mysterious myriad of anonymous cash flowing into the GOP account. In contrast, the Cecil County Democratic Central Committee accounts for every penny it has received in the past year from donations and event ticket purchases and specifies expenditures for fundraising events. In the 2010 election, the “Fiscal Conservative” slate organized by the Smipkin political organization tied to Sen. E.J. Pipkin and Del. Michael Smigiel, both R-36, swept to control seven of the nine seats on the local GOP central committee. The treasurer of the GOP central committee is Carrie Taylor, who ran on the Smipkin slate and was installed in a salaried seat on the county liquor board by a Smipkin-linked majority of the Cecil County Commissioners. The chairman of the GOP central committee is Chris Zeauskas, who ran on the same slate and recently was proposed for a seat on the Charter government advisory panel. Party Central Committees are supposed to engage in fundraising and party-building activities, conduct voter registration drives, and in general election season donate to candidates [&#8230;]]]></description>
