Beach chiefs drop town credit cards pay as you go
Old Orchard Beach officials voted to end use of town credit cards by officials. Police Chief Richard Lumb and Fire Chief used multiple cards for gasoline and calls. Bills would require town manager or treasurer approval with receipts, eliminating 30 to 90 day delays. Councilor Murphy says move increases expenditure control and protects against misuse.

Gartley backs direct election for secretary of state and AG
AUGUSTA Maine (UPI) Secretary of State and Attorney General should be chosen by voters in a general election, not by the legislature. Gartley proposes gubernatorial candidates select a running mate who would become secretary of state, creating a clear executive line of succession and easing gubernatorial duties. He also seeks to merge state treasurer into Finance and extend auditor terms while keeping legislative appointment for seven years, all via a constitutional amendment to be voted next November.
