		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County Public Schools officials took a first step Wednesday to re-launch their efforts to win county approval of a new vocational-technical high school on their dream site—the vacant Basell science labs and buildings in Elkton— with an appeal to business leaders and a new, cost-sharing proposal that will be presented to the County Commissioners. The revised concept would knock off $1.5 million from general county government costs, by tapping separate “fund balances” maintained as a cushion for unforeseen expenses by the separate School Board. In addition, the deal could be re-structured so that the 91-acres of land would be treated as a donation by the current owners, so that the full local costs of the building acquisition and renovations could be financed by a county bond issue. (Bond proceeds may only be used for building purchase and construction projects, not land purchases.) That would mean no out-of-pocket, up front costs out of the county government’s own more than $18.5 million currently unallocated “fund balances.” Resistance to tapping some of those reserve funds was cited by some commissioners as a reason to oppose the project. The usual “Three Amigos” majority faction of the commissioners—Diana Broomell (R-4), James Mullin (R-1) and [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County public schools cracked the cost-cutting whip and saved $1.6 million on several school construction and renovation projects already approved and financed by county bonds. So now the schools want to apply a portion of those cost savings to two projects put on hold by the County Commissioners in the recently approved county budget. Appearing before the Commissioners at a Tuesday worksession, Dr. D’Ette Devine, the schools superintendent, and Tom Kappra, the chief financial officer for the schools, explained that close supervision of construction and renovation projects at the Calvert, Leeds and Thomson Estates schools saved nearly $1.65 million from the projected costs of the construction and renovation projects. “It’s very rare that we have construction that comes in under budget,” commented Commissioner Tari Moore (R-2). “I think it’s only fair that those savings be rolled over” to other county schools projects, she added. The schools would like to apply $900,000 of the savings to begin planning for reconstruction of the aging Perryville elementary school, a long delayed project that the Commissioners pulled out of the capital improvement budget for Fiscal 2013 they recently adopted. The proposed allocation is half what the schools had asked for in Fiscal 2013 [&#8230;]]]></description>
