Talbot Councilwoman Expresses Concerns About FY 2013 Budget

EASTON, MD – Talbot County councilwoman Laura Everngam Price explained her concerns abut the county’s upcoming budget while speaking to the Mid-Shore League of Republican Women Wednesday night.  Price stated that last year the county was forced to dip into its reserve in order to balance the budget.  With declining revenues from property taxes, continuing to dip into the county’s reserve was simply not an ongoing option.  Price said that all departments, including the Talbot County Board of Education could not be held harmless in cutting costs in the FY 2013 budget.
