		<description><![CDATA[News Analysis If you were going to write a Cecil County version of the saccharine popular romantic novel, “The Bridges of Madison County,” it would be more like a rather tedious historical novel, full of the same places and the same characters, doing and saying the same things over and over but at least one character thinking the ending might somehow change. Just when you thought you had finally heard the last of the decades-old saga of the long defunct Mill Lane bridge in Earleville, Cecil County Commissioner Diana Broomell (R-4) declared Tuesday that she wants to consider its resurrection from the collapsed concrete. (No matter that previous commissioners and state and federal officials nixed a costly bridge rebuild years ago and Broomell herself voted a few weeks ago to proceed with steps to remove the last bridge debris and remove Mill Lane from the county’s bridge list forever.) And just when you thought the commissioners, including Broomell, had finally made a decision a few weeks ago to replace the fallen Old Elk Neck bridge but not do anything for now about safety issues on approach roads, suddenly Broomell wants to re-visit the issue. That’s despite the fact that it [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Decades after storms destroyed the aging Mill Lane bridge in Earleville, the Cecil County Commissioners are considering a $250,000 stream “remediation” project that would remove debris of the collapsed bridge and improve water quality as part of a compromise with state environmental officials over unrelated pollution near the central landfill. But some longtime Earleville advocates of replacing the old bridge and restoring a dam and popular fishing hole on an offshoot of Scotchman’s Creek will be disappointed that their long-held dream would be permanently dashed. Removal of the remaining bridge debris would delete Mill Lane from the county’s roster of bridges and forever end local residents’ hopes for a new bridge. The fate of Mill Lane has been a hot-button issue among some Earleville residents for many years, with letter-writing campaigns and pubic meetings on the subject. The bridge was deemed unsafe even before Hurricane Floyd decimated it in 1999. Last year, the Eastern Shore Land Conservancy with support from Commissioner James Mullin (R-1) came up with a costly proposal to use local taxpayer funds to buy 25 acres of adjacent land and create a parking lot and boat launch area next to the stream—but not replace the bridge—while also [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An environmental group has asked the Cecil County Commissioners to assume ownership of a 72 acre pond and land on Mill Lane in Earleville as part of a long-stalled environmental project. But a Cecil Times review found the county could be on the hook for as yet unknown costs and a state grant that was said to be in the offing to buy the property is not on the state’s radar screen. Rob Etgen, director of the Eastern Shore Land Conservancy, on Tuesday outlined a plan to restore an offshoot of Scotchman’s Creek that was damaged when a dam and roadway collapsed after Hurricane Floyd in 1999. The project involves multiple state and federal agencies and a federal plan adopted in 2008 estimates the costs of the project&#8211; to allow fish to migrate more freely through a 1,000-foot passageway&#8211; at $543,710. But that doesn’t cover the costs of acquiring about 25 acres of privately owned land adjacent to and below the pond area around Mill Lane, land which has changed hands –for prices as high as $850,000&#8211; multiple times in the past four years and is now owned by a Delaware investment group, according to state property records. Without some [&#8230;]]]></description>
