B P Sears: Baltimore Co Salary advisory board violated Open Meetings Act

Portion of discussion on raises should have been public, senior official said By Bryan P. Sears bsears@patuxent.com Posted 11/20/09

A salary advisory board violated the state Open Meetings Act, a senior county official said today.

The Baltimore County Personnel and Salary Advisory Board met Nov. 18 to recommend pay increases for the county executive and members of the County Council but did not open to the public an earlier unannounced meeting during which the particulars of their recommendations were discussed.

County Administrative Officer Fred Homan acknowledged in a brief phone call made to a reporter late Friday afternoon that the board violated the act by not opening the unannounced meeting.

“We do believe that, in fact, they did (violate the law) and we’re going to institute some training,” Homan said.

The county Office of Law began a review of the lawfulness of not making public the unannounced meeting after Patuxent Publishing Co., publisher of this Web site, raised questions with a county attorney.

Balto. Co. police spokesperson Bill Toohey to be replaced

In an article, County police spokesman to be replaced by uniformed officer -
Bill Toohey, in job for 13 years, 'surprised' at the news,”
in www.explorebaltimorecounty.com by Luke Broadwater and Bryan Sears, it has been revealed that the longtime Baltimore County police spokesperson, Bill Toohey, the Walter Cronkite of PIOs, has been released – the week before Thanksgiving - by Baltimore County Police Chief Jim Johnson.
Click here for a larger image: http://twitpic.com/q2vtl

Candidly Chief Johnson missed a great opportunity; why not release the popular and well-known spokesperson on say, Thanksgiving Day, or better yet, why not Christmas Eve?

Nothing like starting the holiday season by peeing in the punch bowl.

Of course, there is never a good time to make a bad decision, so the week before Thanksgiving will have to do.

Messrs. Broadwater and Sears report, “… was ‘surprised’ by the announcement, according to several sources with knowledge of the decision…

“‘He’s retiring,’ Johnson said of Toohey, 64, a longtime radio reporter. ‘I’m reacting to his decision to retire…”

Yeah right. My advanced age allows me, for one, to know when someone is peeing on my leg and telling me it is raining. Great start for Mr. Toohey’s replacement, “Lt. Robert McCullough … who has headed the media division of the police department since 1996.”

Sometimes ya have to just shake your head and wonder what folks are thinking – or not; as the case may be.

The article quotes Chief Johnson to say, “Bill Toohey did an excellent job for the agency.”

“But sources said Toohey is looking for a job,” notes reporters Broadwater and Sears.

Mr. Toohey has always had the look and tonality that exuded depth and integrity. Although, I never covered Mr. Toohey, as a reporter, I always trusted that he was leveling with me, and as a news-consumer, he always presented as a straight shooter.

Meanwhile, Mr. Toohey, always a stand-up kind of guy, released a statement, according to writers Broadwater and Sears: “There comes a time for people to move on and new people to move in[.] That is what’s happening here. I have great respect for the men and women in this agency. If I can help with the transition, I certainly will.”
