		<description><![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS Cecil County Executive Tari Moore, a Republican, has told County Council members she will not seek re-election next year, thus clearing the way for a potential floodgate of candidates to succeed her. Moore, the county’s first executive under Charter government, compiled a mixed record of accomplishments, with creation of a new school of technology and balancing the books on the previously troubled landfill funds as among her best achievements. Moore, a former two-year member of the old county Board of Commissioners before her election as the first County Executive under the new Charter form of government that went into operation in 2012, called County Council President Robert Hodge (R-5) Tuesday evening and told him of her decision not to run again, Hodge told Cecil Times. “I guess she lost interest in the job,” Hodge said. He did not press her for details and she did not volunteer her reasons, Hodge noted, but he said she had previously voiced mixed feelings about running again over the past few months and he had tried to encourage her to run again. “I think she had been doing a good job and I asked her to re-consider,” Hodge said.

		<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>
