County Plans for New Budget Review
Frederick County Commissioners moved toward a fiscal 1995 spending plan three months into the year. Budget Officer Mark Sneadner proposed an earlier schedule with more budget hearings to speed the process, while Commissioner Sue Ann Yingling criticized it as not going far enough from the hurried 1994 cycle. The plan includes separate capital and operating budget hearings and a separate meeting to review capital items.
