		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County Executive Tari Moore has appointed a 30-member task force to draft a long-range “strategic plan” to guide the county’s future, a requirement established by the county’s new Charter form of government. The Strategic Plan Advisory Network (SPAN) will be headed by Dr. Diane Lane, Vice President of Student Services and Institutional Effectiveness at Cecil College. Lane also headed the 41-member citizens task force that drafted the county’s Comprehensive Plan, which dealt with land use and zoning issues, several years ago. Most of the members named to the new SPAN panel represent key areas that will be addressed by the plan, including public schools, public safety, public works, health, jobs and economic development. County government department heads are included, as well as members of various boards and commissions or agencies that deal with such issues. The county Charter specifies that a strategic plan, which must be adopted by the County Council by 5/1/14, should address future issues involving “anticipated shifts in demographic, legal, political, social or physical conditions.” The Charter also calls for a plan to address “at least five strategic issues” that will be top priorities for the county’s future. County Councilor Joyce Bowlsbey (R-2), the &#8216;godmother&#8217; of [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Cecil County Commissioners on Tuesday decided—sort of—to ease some education budget cuts, but to hang tough against the county Sheriff and dismiss pleas from the county library system. A majority also continued a cryptic campaign to cut funds and re-vamp the county’s Economic Development office, but without specifying their ultimate agenda. Amidst lots of mumbling, winks, nods and a few dagger-looks among the Commissioners, the panel made some decisions but there were major caveats that could easily unravel in the next few days. The Commissioners will meet again on Thursday to discuss the budget. Only Cecil College scored a semi-win, with Commissioners agreeing unanimously to restore about $120,000 to the school’s budget so that tuition for students would not be increased. The Commissioners had proposed cutting more than twice that amount from the college, but school leaders struck a compromise by agreeing to meet the county halfway and absorb slightly more than half of the cut. The Cecil County public schools won what could be a temporary victory, with a sort-of majority endorsing restoration of $314,000 for the schools to offset a last-minute mandate shifted to the local schools by the state General Assembly.
