		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES Special Report Cecil County Animal Services failed to inspect multiple kennel businesses in 2018 and is only now scheduling inspections, according to the county attorney, after CECIL TIMES reported previously that many inspections were not conducted or licenses issued as required by county law. “The County acknowledges it has been late in performing several kennel inspections in 2018,” Jason Allison, the county attorney, wrote in a letter to CECIL TIMES that was sent via email late Friday (2/8/2019) afternoon. He further admitted that four commercial and/or boarding kennel businesses had applied for licenses but the county failed to inspect the facilities or issue licenses as required in 2018. He said that the four premises would be inspected soon, and that the owners would not be fined or extra fees imposed for their 2018 licenses that were not issued previously. Kennel license applications must be submitted in April of each year, and county inspections of the premises are usually conducted in May, with licenses issued upon completion of the inspections. Furthermore, in response to previous questions by CECIL TIMES, Allison acknowledged in a footnote to his letter that Eden Rehab and Rescue—which is currently under investigation for alleged [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[News Analysis Cecil County’s landfill operations have been racking up expenses faster than fees paid by trash dumpers, despite rate increases last year and previous efforts by County Executive Tari Moore to make trash services pay for themselves. In her new budget, Moore proposes more fee boosts to make landfill operations begin to stand on their own fiscal feet. If adopted by the County Council, Moore’s proposals could make the landfill operations close to paying for themselves in the next budget year. And that could be one of the most fiscally-responsible moves Moore has made as county executive. In presenting her new budget recently, Moore said her goal was to make the landfill operations self-sustaining in the next budget year—instead of being a drain on county general funds. The county owns and operates a central landfill and two trash transfer stations at which people can drop off their garbage, which is then transferred by truck to the main landfill. The transfer stations, at Woodlawn and at Stemmer’s Run in Earleville, had their hours and days of operation cut back two years ago as a cost-cutting move. Landfill costs are covered by a so-called “enterprise fund,” meaning that fees paid by [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[News Analysis Cecil County Executive Tari Moore’s proposed budget would boost fees and taxes on many aspects of local residents’ daily lives, from buying a new home to living in a “manufactured” house, to playing a video game or a jukebox. Some of the proposed fee hikes are modest, affect rather obscure services and haven’t been changed in decades. Others, however, are controversial and could have significant impact on individual homeowners, homebuyers and the real estate industry. All told, the proposed new fee schedule would generate over $2.6 million in revenues to the county. And on top of those fee increases, Moore’s budget proposed a more than 2-cent increase in the local property tax rate, from the current 0.9907 to $1.0132 per $100 of assessed value. As a result, property taxes are estimated to yield $95,782,342 in revenues to the county in the new budget—an increase of over $4.1 million, due to the tax boost as well as projected higher property value assessments calculated by the state. As part of the fee and residents’ expense increase segment of her budget, Moore would do away with a 2 percent discount currently offered property owners who pay their tax bills early, by [&#8230;]]]></description>
