		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES SPECIAL REPORT NEWS ANALYSIS A majority of the Cecil County Council indicated support this week for county purchase of an existing private animal shelter facility, but some members reserved judgment on County Executive Tari Moore’s plan to create a fully government-operated program, with county worker payscales and benefits. But Moore refused to say how much total county operation of the program would cost. Many of her proposals fly in the face of financial facts about operations of animal control services in the state, including her claim that she can create a government-related non-profit charity to get grants and donors to subsidize the employment of government workers with county payscales and benefits. In fact, her proposals run counter to the trend of local governments increasingly moving to contract with private non-profit groups to operate government- owned shelter facilities to save taxpayer money. And Moore is putting most of the power to create and oversee her new untested animal services plan into the hands of one county employee whose experience and portfolio covers transit buses and a senior citizens exercise facility.

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County Commissioners are scheduled on Tuesday to review aid requests from non-profit groups for pieces of a $500,000 pie of local impact aid from the Hollywood Casino in Perryville, including a church seeking a new roof and a youth-oriented group&#8211; founded by a convicted federal felon and con-man&#8211; that has amassed hundreds of thousands of dollars in other local and state grants in the two years of its existence. A small advisory group recently reviewed applications for the local non-profit grants, which for the first time were opened up to organizations and programs from throughout the county. Last year—the first time such grants were offered—the grants were limited to western Cecil County groups only, located near the casino. Unlike last year, when all applicants were assigned points ratings on the basis of local impact criteria, this year’s recommended list does not provide relative rankings. Instead, the County Commissioners were presented on 7/3/12 with a recommended list of grantees in categories such as public safety, “prevention, education, training, youth” and “public service, economic/ community development.” Most of the applicants are well-known local charities and groups with a solid record of community service.
