Montgomery County going broke?

Once one of the richest counties in the state, Montgomery County is now flirting with disaster. They owe millions. How did this happen? If you ask The Scoop the answer might be that they never should have spent $150 million, and then another $60 million on open space before they finally pulled the plug on the program. There's also the giant money pit otherwise known as One Montgomery Plaza. November is just around the corner and while everyone is looking at the top of the food chain for changes, people should also be looking at the other elected positions, where large employee payrolls thrive.
