This June 9, 2009 County Commissioners resolution adopts the Fiscal Year 2010 budget and tax rates for Queen Anne’s County: a real estate tax rate of 0.77 per $100 of assessed valuation, a Utility Operating Property tax rate of 1.93 per $100, and a supplemental Kent Narrows district tax of 0.06 per $100. The resolution adopts the General Fund, Special Revenue, Enterprise, and Capital Projects budgets; continues a quasi hiring freeze through FY2010 except for public safety positions (Sheriff, Emergency Services, Detention Center, and Animal Services); and requires review of unappropriated capital outlay requests by March 15, 2010. It also authorizes capital projects and studies including a consultant to review health and disability insurance and develop an RFP, a consultant study on implementing a county executive form of government, expansion of Animal Services kennels using the Estate of Eugenia Teodoli with completion targeted for September 2009, and expedited work on the Ferry Point foot bridge and boardwalk at Kent Narrows pending easements. Additional actions require the County Administrator and County Attorney to review State requirements about Chesapeake College relationships, establish a citizens committee to advise on FY2011 budgeting with a focus on outsourcing and transparency, direct the Chief Budget Officer to provide a monthly general fund revenue report, and implement a salary scale adjustment of "1 800" in lieu of a COLA effective with the pay period beginning January 6, 2010. The document is attested by the County Commissioners and signed/attested by Margie A. Houck, Executive Assistant.
