In this episode of Open Agenda, hosts Joe White and Joe Venosa discuss the August 6th County Council meeting, where the council voted 6-1 to override the executive's veto on the motorized events legislation—a law created in response to the unannounced "Safari at the Quarry" MOU. The main segment features an in-depth interview with Wicomico County Council President John Cannon. Cannon provides a detailed breakdown of the 2024-2025 budget, explaining how the council restored the revenue cap (which the executive had busted) and secured funding for Fruitland Primary School. He also clarifies misinformation surrounding the Salisbury fire service agreement and the separate funding for volunteer fire companies. Finally, Cannon explains his vote to put Question A (the Council-Manager referendum) on the ballot, citing a history of unilateral executive actions (like the recycling centers disappearing), missed charter deadlines like the FOP contract, and the need for greater transparency.
