Prince George’s County is poised to reclaim $18 million in state aid for next year under a Senate budget proposal, but county lawmakers are still pushing for a permanent solution to an issue they say could continue to jeopardize both local and school aid.
The county was slated in Gov. Martin O’Malley’s proposed budget to lose that money in the state’s “disparity grant” program, which helps poorer jurisdictions provide services that are roughly equivalent to those in richer counties.
