		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES Special Report Danielle Hornberger, wife of state Del. Kevin Hornberger, has raised more than $50,000 for her campaign for Cecil County Executive in the June Republican primary, relying heavily on her husband’s political contacts and campaign funds. And in her most recently reported donations, half of the money came from Port Deposit landowners who her husband backed in a land dispute with the state. The donations this year to Mrs. Hornberger by Gabrielle (Gaby) Buck, of Mount. Ararat Farm in Port Deposit, included a $5,500 donation on 2/10/2020, a $500 donation on 2/25/2020 and a $500 donation on 1/25/2020, according to the state elections database. That total&#8211; $6,500—exceeds the state’s legal $6,000 limit for donations by an individual to a single candidate’s campaign in a two-year election cycle. In addition, her Mount Ararat Farm business, as well as a family member, donated even more to Mrs. Hornberger. Frank Buck, of Port Deposit, donated the maximum $6,000 on 2/6/2020. Her Mt Ararat Farms LLC donated $2,000 on 2/4/2020 and $1,000 on 2/11/2020. In total, Buck personal and business donations to Mrs. Hornberger amounted to $15,500. That figure is more than half of all contributions and event ticket purchases [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES Special Report (With legal footnotes) Cecil County Council member Jackie Gregory (R-5) has continued to collect a salary from county public schools in the current budget year, despite questions of county Charter and ethics rules barring Council members from paid employment with other county agencies. And she has also claimed reimbursement for tickets she bought to local civic dinners and banquets, despite county law prohibiting sending such bills to taxpayers, according to a CECIL TIMES investigation. In addition, the County Council has ignored its own rules for obtaining legal opinions from its outside legal counsel, including expenses incurred to review Gregory’s school employment status as well as private legal consultations between Gregory and the Council’s lawyer and private consultations with Councilor Bill Coutz (R-2), according to a review of invoices for legal services by John Downs, the Council’s lawyer, and Downs’ response to a Cecil Times public records request under state law. The county also paid an invoice for Coutz for a ticket to an Elkton dinner event. Furthermore, the issues have been the subject of recent closed-door meetings of the full Council, at which Council President Bob Meffley (R-2) said he “laid down the law” to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[News Analysis If you were going to write a Cecil County version of the saccharine popular romantic novel, “The Bridges of Madison County,” it would be more like a rather tedious historical novel, full of the same places and the same characters, doing and saying the same things over and over but at least one character thinking the ending might somehow change. Just when you thought you had finally heard the last of the decades-old saga of the long defunct Mill Lane bridge in Earleville, Cecil County Commissioner Diana Broomell (R-4) declared Tuesday that she wants to consider its resurrection from the collapsed concrete. (No matter that previous commissioners and state and federal officials nixed a costly bridge rebuild years ago and Broomell herself voted a few weeks ago to proceed with steps to remove the last bridge debris and remove Mill Lane from the county’s bridge list forever.) And just when you thought the commissioners, including Broomell, had finally made a decision a few weeks ago to replace the fallen Old Elk Neck bridge but not do anything for now about safety issues on approach roads, suddenly Broomell wants to re-visit the issue.
