		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS Cecil County Executive Danielle Hornberger (R) submitted her proposed Fiscal 2023 budget to the County Council on 4/1/2022, providing a penny cut on the property tax rate, the minimum state-required aid level for county schools and Cecil College, and a “Blue Ribbon Commission” to look at law enforcement pay scales—but no extra pay beyond their current bare bones union contract. The one indication that Hornberger may have begun listening to upset county residents was her attempt to make up in part for her Fiscal 2022 assault on the county public libraries, which suffered the deepest cuts of any agency in the current budget. That policy forced major cutbacks in public services&#8211; while also making library staff the only county employees to receive no cost of living pay raises this budget year. While other county employees received 1.5 percent COLAs last summer and up to an additional 6 percent in the past few months, library workers would belatedly get a 6 percent COLA effective 7/1/2022—but they would still be behind other county workers who will get another 1.5 percent COLA in July on top of their FY22 pay boosts. The County Council begins its review of the budget on [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Cecil County Council voted late Thursday afternoon to support most of County Executive Tari Moore’s Fiscal 2014 budget proposal, repeatedly rejecting proposals by Councilors Diana Broomell (R-4) and Michael Dunn to (R-3) to slash money for county public schools, public safety and infrastructure projects. The votes showed the intentions of the majority of the Council on a wide range of budget issues but are not yet final or binding. The Council must adopt a county budget in a formal legislative session on Tuesday 5/21/13, and some of the amendments voted down on Thursday could be presented again. But on most points, the intent of the majority was clear and few if any changes are expected. But there was still one major issue left open: how to ease the impact of a proposed huge boost in “major facility fees” for sewage services—the charges assessed to new business customers seeking to hook-up to the county’s sewage treatment plants. The fees are currently set at $10,000 per unit (some businesses require many ‘units’ to meet their needs) but Moore proposed boosting the fee to $16,100.
