As someone who attended the Tawes Clam Bake yesterday in Crisfield, I'd like to thank the hard working taxpayers of Salisbury. I paid a visit to the Salisbury tent and received several bottles of that great "City Living" bottled water. While you were working to pay those growing tax bills and newly increased water and sewer rates I am sure that you were comforted by the fact that non-City taxpayers were kept from dehydration and having to walk all the way up front to obtain a nice cold bottle of water.
But wait! I thought that these types of expenses were struck from both last year's and the current budgets? Did Salisbury Mayor Barrie Tilghman do something illegal? Not in this case.
As we have noted previously, the decision of Barrie's RUBBER STAMP to adopt what they claim is a "program" budget only limits Tilghman to very broad constraints of where to spend your tax dollars.
Remember to thank Louise Smith the next time you see her. And if she still maintains that this type of foolishness was stricken from the budget, remind her that telling fibs will get her kicked out of her Sunday school class.

Well, G.A., the Daily Times can't have Campbell or Cohen worrying about "minutiae" like the taxpayers' money, now can they?
That water is some of that nice clear affluent runoff from the WWTP. Cheer's!
didn't at one time rick pollitt drink a glass of water from fruitland's WWTP? like to see the mare match that
I don't have a problem at an event like this having the city represented. But it should be promoting Salisbury and include a coming together of council members and the Mayor for the good of the City. Not for a political promotion of one person.
The mayor and Bubba were rather lonely in the city tent, it appeared. Someone should have told her there was no possible way to market the 10th most dangerous city in the USA, no matter how you spin it.
