		<description><![CDATA[“CRIMINAL NUISANCE” PROPERTIES FACE COUNTY CRACKDOWN For years, Cecil County government, law enforcement and neighbors have been trying to clean up run-down properties, especially in trailer parks, that have become home to drug dealing and criminal activity. Now the county government is looking to crack down on absentee landlords with proposed legislation that could impose escalating sanctions to clean up “criminal nuisance” properties. The 16-page resolution proposed at the Council’s 2/21/2017 worksession doesn’t mention the Lakeside trailer park, but in comments by some officials it was clear that the North East-area development is considered a prime candidate for the enforcement proposal. Drugs and criminal activity have long been a problem at the site, where mobile homes and the lots on which they sit are often individually owned by absentee landlords, who then rent out the low-cost dwellings to tenants. Unlike other trailer parks, where the lots are owned by a central management that could enforce rules and evict problem residents, at Lakeside individual owners act as landlords for many, if not most, of the dwellings. Lakeside is also home to multiple people listed on the state sex-offender registry. In the past, the county has sometimes used health and safety code [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Cecil County Council adopted the new Fiscal 2016 budget just a few weeks ago but now that the new budget year began July 1, the panel is considering several budget amendments to boost or shift around spending and the county executive is asking for an expedited approval process that would shorten the time citizens have to review or comment on such budget changes. In addition, the county administration is proposing an accounting change that would shift grant funds into a separate account—rather than being included in the budgets of individual departments that receive the grants—and accumulate an estimated $7 million in grants in the new account. That step, while providing a one-stop insight into the full range of state and federal grants received by the county, could also create the impression of $7 million in lower expenditures in departmental budgets next year, when a new budget will be crafted in the midst of an election year. The County Executive’s slot and two seats on the Council are at stake in the 2016 elections. At the 7/7/15 County Council worksession, members discussed several budget amendments, including some that had been aired at length during the recent budget process, when councilors [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Cecil County Council, including Council President Robert Hodge (R-5), demanded answers Tuesday when told that the US Army Corps of Engineers would soon be presenting a design plan to state environmental officials to deal with the Corps’ polluted dumpsite in Earleville and would meet with county officials after talks with the state. Council Manager James Massey told the Council at a worksession Tuesday morning in Elkton that he had contacted Corps officials about a previous request from the Council to schedule a meeting about the Pearce Creek dredge spoil dumpsite in Earleville. Hodge had previously resisted a call by Councilor Joyce Bowlsbey (R-2) for an immediate meeting and said further talks should be held off for a few months until after the Corps had more time to develop plans to correct pollution at the dumpsite itself and how to provide safe drinking water to local residents&#8211; whose water supplies were contaminated by the dumpsite, according to a US Geological Survey study. But Hodge voiced concerns, and suggested an expedited meeting, after Massey said he was told that the Corps was planning to meet with Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) officials in the next few weeks “to discuss the [&#8230;]]]></description>
