Wicomico Revenue Cap Study

GSC has put together a committee to study the Wicomico County Revenue Cap. GSC is working jointly with BEACON, Salisbury University’s Business Economic and Community Outreach Network, and its Director, Dr. Memo Diriker, on the study. GSC believes that the Revenue Cap, which became the law of the land in Wicomico County in 2000, as the result of a voter led referendum, is something that should be examined. Many Wicomico County residents are unaware of the existence of the Revenue Cap, and many others may be unaware of what the Revenue Cap actually is, and how it affects our County. The study will look to educate the citizens of Wicomico County on the Revenue Cap, as part of a comprehensive review. The findings of the study will be reported to the full GSC membership, and also to County leaders and stakeholders. Fall 2017 is the anticipated time frame for the completion of the study.
