		<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.

		<description><![CDATA[Regardless of the outcome of November’s election, Cecil County will be making history when citizens elect the county’s first County Executive, who will join the ranks of the few jurisdictions in the state, including Anne Arundel County and Baltimore city, that have been led by women. Pam Howard, the Democratic candidate, or Tari Moore, the Republican candidate, will preside over the shift from a commissioner form of government to charter government, which will place the county executive in charge of day-to-day government operations as well as providing political leadership to a five-member County Council. Moore and Howard provided glimpses of their leadership and management styles during a candidates’ forum last Thursday night hosted by the Cecil County Patriots, the local ‘tea party’ group. Howard, who served for 12 years as the county’s independently elected Treasurer before losing by a sliver of votes in the 2010 election, said she was “able to eliminate the fluff and make tough decisions,” and knew the ins and outs of the county’s budget and departmental operations based on her Treasurer post and over 20 years experience in local government.
