		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County should know the locations of feral (wild) cat colonies harbored by local cat “rescue” groups as a matter of public and animal health concerns, the chair of an animal oversight panel has suggested. But a cat activist member of the oversight panel&#8211; who is aligned with the Buddy for Life group that holds a 3-year animal control contract with the county&#8211; attacked the chairwoman in legally questionable terms that prompted a call for “regular business” from the county attorney. At the Animal Care and Control Oversight Commission (ACCOC)’s quarterly meeting held 4/22/14, a member of the oversight panel, Ricky Lewis II—operator of the “Cat Crusaders” group that deals with feral cat colonies and other stray cats—attacked the panel’s chairwoman, Lyn Yelton, and began to claim inside information about the operations of the county’s Ethics Commission. Complaints to the commission are confidential under county law and even those filing complaints are not allowed to discuss the matter publicly. However, sources have told Cecil Times that Mindy Carletti, a veterinarian who is listed on state records as the business agent for the Buddy for Life group, filed a complaint against Yelton because she owns a dog boarding kennel. No public [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES SPECIAL REPORT A Delaware animal rescue group that took over animal control for Cecil County in January realized a nearly $25,000 profit in the first three months of its contract with the local government, which cost taxpayers $190,000, according to documents submitted to the county. And some of the group’s past expenses—such as renting vans—will disappear going forward since the county recently purchased two pickup trucks—at a cost of $65,270&#8211; that are being leased to the group for just $2 a year. The cost of the vans is paid by the county in addition to the $60,000 a month contract for animal control services. Overall, the three-year contract and government expenses for animal control services will cost taxpayers over $2.2 million. The rescue group, A Buddy for Life, Inc., submitted reports showing financials, animal population, and responses to citizen complaints for January, February and March, after the close of the business day on Wednesday, 4/10/13. Under the new animal control ordinance adopted last year, the Buddies were required to submit the documents “at least seven days prior to the quarterly meeting” of a new Animal Control oversight commission that will hold its first meeting at 7:15 pm [&#8230;]]]></description>
