		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS It was a bit like the first day of school when the new Cecil County Council met this week for its first worksession with two new members and, at least for a few minutes, no teacher in charge of the classroom. There was also a nearby hall monitor, trying to lay down some different groundrules for the new school term. But the students quickly put themselves in charge. Meeting on 12/4/2018 for the first time after the November general election, the Cecil County Council unanimously selected Bob Meffley (R-1) as President of the five-member le gislative body and fended off a bid by the county executive to rein in council members’ roles on outside organizations’ boards. It probably won’t be the last time there’s some friction between the new Council and the executive’s office. Meffley, a two-year veteran of the Council, had declared his intention to seek the panel’s presidency, to replace the retiring Joyce Bowlsbey, early last month. A new member, Bill Coutz (R-2), who won election to Bowlsbey’s seat on the Council, was also interested in the post and cited his leadership experience in business and various non-profit boards.

		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS It was hardly a surprise when the Cecil County Council adopted, by a 3-2 majority vote Tuesday evening, a minimally revised version of County Executive Tari Moore’s proposed Fiscal 2015 budget. The key decisions had all been thrashed out at a worksession last week and another session Tuesday morning. But before the ink had even been applied to the final document, the budget was negative political fodder for some election candidates who’ve never shown up at a budget worksession or presentation to the Council by county department heads, and some who criticize the county public schools while demonstrating they could use some remedial English lessons. Even as the Council was meeting on the budget, one political challenger was sending out negative campaign robocalls and attacks. That prompted an unusually blunt response, in an email to county schools employees obtained by Cecil Times from confidential sources, by County Schools Superintendent D’Ette Devine—noting the voting records of two current Council members who have consistently opposed school program spending and advising about challenger candidates who also oppose education spending. The two Council members who voted against the county budget and who are both candidates for re-election—Councilors Diana Broomell (R-4) and Michael [&#8230;]]]></description>
