One item on Monday’s Salisbury City Council agenda is Resolution No. 1673 - “authorizing mayor to sign a joint letter with Wicomico County requesting that Comcast provide support to PAC14 for the acquisition of capital facilities and equipment”. Sounds pretty innocuous, doesn’t it? It probably would be EXCEPT:
- the proposal is riddled with excessive spending,
- there would be a de facto tax on the cable subscribers of Salisbury and Wicomico County,
- there is a disturbing veil of secrecy, AND …
- the Salisbury city government (and possibly the Wicomico County government) are trying to sweep this proposal through before all of the facts are known,
Do you want a higher cable bill? Are you concerned with who will be controlling PAC-14 - your only source of unfiltered coverage of Salisbury and Wicomico government?
If so, read on....Read Part II here ...

KUDOS FOR ANOTHER GOOD POST!
I betcha that Barrie wants to control PAC 14--right????????
Here’s what bothers me, Wicomico County receives hundreds of thousands of dollars from Comcast. I am a resident in Wicomico County and the cable does not come near my house so that I could have high speed internet. Can’t get DSL either. I pay the same taxes to Wicomico County as those who have access to the cable system.
Shouldn’t my taxes be lower since I don’t benefit from the Comcast / Wicomico deal?
That dark cloud over PAC 14 is their choice of partners...Barrie Tilghman, Louise Smith and John Pick. They've already raped and destroyed a city. Keep their hands out of this.
Anon at 9:08 - BINGO
They are also revising the Board to include Barrie Tilghman and othe political types, Rumor is that she will get a job there when her tenure as mayor ends next year.
She should get a jail cell at MCI-W for the willful destruction of the city. Get a job, yeah that's a good one. That woman wouldn't know a hard days work if it jumped up and slapped her in her flabby ass.
