		<description><![CDATA[News Analysis Cecil County Commissioners adopted a get-tough stance Tuesday against a state-mandated “tiers” land preservation map&#8211;which local farmers fear would strip them of property rights—and said they would defer any action until a summit meeting with other rural counties and consideration of legal action against the state. On the surface it might look like a victory for farmers and property rights activists who jammed a recent public hearing to protest the “Draft 4” tier map that a 3-2 majority of the commissioners approved to put out to hearing. [SEE Cecil Times report HERE: https://ceciltimes.com/2012/09/tiers-tears-and-taunts-cecil-county-commish-blasted-on-tier-maps-broomell-bashes-critics-hodge/ ] But, in fact, this newly found defiant attitude could be just a prelude to an even more restrictive no-growth mandate imposed by the state if no maps are submitted by the county by the end of the year. And that might just be the ultimate goal of some anti-growth activists: no development permitted, but without having their political fingerprints on the maps. The commissioners agreed Tuesday afternoon to defer any action to review, modify or adopt the planning maps until they meet later this month with a coalition of rural counties in Annapolis, and consider possible legal opposition to the legislative mandates.

But we are back with some observations on good things happening in our southern Cecil County neck of the woods.     We stopped in to visit Vic and Mary Priapi, proprietors of Priapi Gardens in Cecilton, on Saturday as they were having their fall harvest event. Lots of fun things, all for free, on Route 213 in Cecilton. We say &#8220;IN&#8221; Cecilton, because a few months ago this treasure of a garden shop and nursery, value-added agriculture, agro-tourism and all around great place was actually outside the town limits of Cecilton.      It took a full blown town election, and a rather unpleasant political campaign, before a majority of Cecilton residents voted to welcome Priapi Gardens to the town so that the Priapi&#8217;s could be assured access to water they would need to expand their nursery business. The annexation issue was a microcosm of what is both wrong and right with any discussion of so-called &#8220;growth&#8221; in this county.    Some folks&#8211; including one current county commissioner and one who aspires to the job&#8211; did a knee-jerk opposition to any [&#8230;]]]></description>
