Ms. Oland will begin her new assignment on April 18, 2006. For further information, please contact John Pick, City Administrator, at (410) 548-3100.

The big question for YOU is, How's She Working For Ya? Yet Barrie said NO ONE will be fired.

I'll close with, do NOT forget that Barrie Tilghman was ONE step away from increasing the Water and Sewer Rates because of a shortfall in that Department. At the 11th hour they/we found $8,500,000.00 in that account and the Mayor rescinded the increase. NOW the Mayor stalled all the information to Council Members extremely late and was successful in a 14% tax increase while also making sure Council Members could NOT access Department Heads without her permission.

Yeah, I'd say there's a LOT more here than meets the eye and you know what, we need Kenny Beck back! At least he was good enough to dig through these kind of stories in the MSM and expose them for what they are. Greg Latshaw did a fine job with his article but like everyone else before him, he's catching on to what's really going on, meaning he too will be relocated very soon.
