The Wicomico County agenda includes a public hearing on Resolution O 4-2025, a measure to authorize a letter of support for state-level performance auditing of the Wicomico County Liquor Control Board. On the public-affairs program Open Agenda, panelists said the liquor board has repeatedly been unable or unwilling to provide basic financial details, including salary information and profit-and-loss figures, which has prompted calls for an independent review by the Office of Legislative Audits.
Speakers on the program framed a state performance audit as a means to obtain information not currently available through county channels. The broadcast also noted that the county uses an outside contractor (referred to on air as PKS) for some data services and that commentators considered that contractor competent but said additional data fields (for example, profit-and-loss and salary breakdowns) would be helpful for transparency.
The item is identified on the county agenda as a public hearing; the program did not report a final vote on Resolution O 4-2025. The next formal step will depend on council action during or after the public hearing.
