The Fruitland City Council Audit Committee met on Wednesday, September 23, 2009 to discuss the over $260,000 in cuts from the State of Maryland. It was determined that due to the frugalness of our Department Heads in making purchases and being conservative in the budget process, no furloughs with employees will be necessary at this time.

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY
On September 25, 1965 the Kansas City Athletics start ageless wonder Satchel Paige in a game against the Boston Red Sox. The fifty nine year old Paige, a Negro League All-Star legend, proved his greatness once again by giving up only one hit in his three innings of play. Paige was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971.

Maybe the salisbury city and county
council should sit in on the meetings of Fruitland to learn a thing or two.
Don't fool yourself 12:15. Fruitland has it's own share of problems. If you think no one shows up at the Salisbury and County meetings, come to a Fruitland one where they are lucky if three people show up.
