To see public funds being wasted, once again, by the Salisbury City Council watch their latest meeting when it’s rebroadcast on PAC-14. The agenda includes a resolution to fund a so called "Hospitality Entrepreneurial Institute," to be conducted under the auspices of UMES this fall.
It will consist of a program (apparently a seminar of sorts) to be held at the Ramada Inn, which may be a Holiday Inn by then, to train both UMES students and others about starting and operating a "hospitality venture" – one of the more important concerns and unmet needs of Salisbury residents to be sure, if not the main reason why we have local government.
Apparently this has been prepackaged by the Tilghman administration – in other words it’s already a done deal so that any member of the City Council who opposed it would be criticized for being against UMES, business, etc. The program is already scheduled for October, and the USDA has agreed to provide "technical assistance funds" to the City to pay part of the cost of its funding. How this benefits farmers is defies rational comprehension.
Because it’s being promoted as a "pilot study to determine the feasibility of a "Hospitality Entrepreneurial Institute" in downtown Salisbury, we can look forward to requests for the City to fund future events by this "Institute," which also bears the imprimatur of "Urban Salisbury."
This is yet another example of why it is crucial that we:
1. Dump Barrie Tilghman or any clone such as Bubba Comegys in next year’s election.
2. Elect John McCain in November.

Barrie is so lucky to have Lore Chambers to help waste the taxpayers' money -- NOT
Urban Salisbury is a major cause of that "loud, sucking noise" for City funds.
A tip of the hat to Ross Perot for that great quote.
Just another way for Salisbury to throw more money away.

How about Barrie as the "Miss Hospitality" of the Institute!
But on second thought, Lore Chambers has a much better wardrode and shoes for that job.
Joe, re urban salisbury, if Salisbury is so nice why does their director drive a car with Canadian plates?

If he/she lives in Maryland, that may be a violation of the motor vehicle law -- not sure if it is a misdemeanor or not.
hahaha i want to hear gary try to even pronounce entrepreneurial
lore doesn't need anymore shoes, will somebody get her a bag to go over that head though?
Sounds like more community organizing to me...NOT a job, fyi
I was against McCain before I was for him.
What happened to the vote about giving the "head" of this organization his health care...paid for by you know who?????
