		<description><![CDATA[The Cecil County Commissioners escalated a feud over property rights and their decision-making process Tuesday, with angry exchanges at a morning worksession followed by three commissioners voting in the evening to reject Planning Commission-recommended zoning changes on four properties because they are owned by Commissioner Robert Hodge (R-5). Hodge recused himself from the actions. It was a day of dueling “statements” by commissioners, accusations and challenges, and one Commissioner—Diana Broomell (R-4) &#8212; making assertions against Hodge that she later had to admit were wrong. Three commissioners—James Mullin (R-1) Michael Dunn (R-3) and Broomell—voted to reject zoning revisions on four commercial properties in the Route 40 growth corridor. They did not cite zoning criteria but said they rejected the parcels because they are owned by Hodge. The Planning Commission had recommended approval of the revisions as part of implementation of the new Comprehensive Plan adopted by the county a year ago. That process and comprehensive rezoning that follows occurs only every ten to twelve years. Commissioner Tari Moore (R-2) made motions to approve the Planning Commission’s recommendations on some of the four Hodge parcels but her motion died for lack of a second. Hodge had consulted with the County Ethics commission [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Several Cecil County Commissioners refused to act Wednesday on two rezoning requests by fellow Commissioner Robert Hodge (R-5), who had recused himself from voting on his properties in accordance with an opinion he requested from the county Ethics Commission. Commissioner Diana Broomell (R-4) moved to reject the proposals, while Commissioner Tari Moore (R-2) moved to approve them. Each motion died for lack of a second when Commissioners’ President James Mullin (R-1) and Commissioner Michael Dunn (R-3) refused to vote on either motion. The standoff produced a heated hallway discussion among the four commissioners during a brief recess, according to several sources who were present at the proceeding. Afterwards, the commissioners then put off action on four other Hodge-owned properties that were on the agenda. (Cecil Times was not present in the meeting room but has interviewed multiple sources, reviewed county Planning Commission minutes, and viewed the Ethics Commission letter.) The Commissioners are reviewing numerous requests from property owners all over the county as part of the comprehensive rezoning of the county in tandem with the new comprehensive plan adopted by the county a year ago.
