This is incredible – please sit down and take a deep breath before reading any further.
The State of Maryland is broke, and has taken all the highway user funds for other uses rather than to fund local road repair and rebuilding, state funding for our schools will be reduced again this year, and O’Malley is making the Counties fund the tax assessment offices. So what do we find Mr. Conway doing – asking for special appropriations (Maryland’s version of "earmarks") totaling $500,000 for a new building for the Salisbury Zoo and funding for the Tri-County Council – both totally unnecessary matters (and that Council is a do-nothing if ever there were).
Please, Mr. Conway, if you can get you hands on a half million bucks in Annapolis don’t waste it on these things. Instead get it for Wicomico County’s general fund so it can be used for essential things like road work and public safety.

You are mistaken about the work of the Tri-County Council. I encourage you to learn more about it. As just a couple examples, they are responsible for ShoreTransit which is getting people to/from work, medical appts, day care, and shopping, and the workforce alliance which does retraining for laid-off workers.
what was wrong with Pork in the Park ? why take it to Annapolis ?
And the voters just gave good ol' Norm 4 more years to spend like the fool he is!
