[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers have the upper hand here & will get what they’re asking for. They are not replaceable.[/quote] In Montgomery county, they pretty much always do get what they are asking for. Whether or not the full budget is enacted- the teachers pay scales were already approved yesterday. The county is not going to not pay them. One of the more frustrating parts to me is Elrich's budget grows the entire county government by like 7%, including thousands of new positions despite many current positions still being vacant. And because its "for the schools", Elrich and Madeleno are goign to loophole this in to get it past a unanimous council vote. When the entire county government is growing significantly in this budget. Even worse- even if the full 10% property tax increase is enacted- there is still a structural shortage for NEXT YEAR. It's a huge tax hike, that covers exactly 11 months of new spending. [/quote]
