D

The
county
executive,
the
appropriate
department
head
or
councilman
marks
will
address
your
inquiries,
concerns
and
ideas.
If
we
cannot
answer
a
question
tonight,
we
will
have
a
coordinator
from
the
office
of
community
engagement.
Follow
up
with
you
now
without
further
Ado.
It
is
my
honor
and
privilege
to
welcome
your
councilman
David
Marks.
E
E
E
Our
number
one
priority
in
Baltimore
county
is
to
protect
our
communities
and
nearly
30
years
ago.
You
know
more
than
30
years
ago,
Eastern
Baltimore
County
was
hailed
for
a
terrorism
in
responding
to
the
1987
train,
derailment
and
Chase
I
know
we
all
look
forward
to
partnering
on
a
long-term
plan
to
address
our
career
and
volunteer
fire
stations.
E
I'd
like
to
thank
our
County
Executive
for
advancing
the
planning
of
a
new
Essex
police
precinct
and
we're
looking
forward
to
building
a
modern,
robust
police
force
for
our
neighborhoods
and
businesses.
E
Finally,
I
want
to
talk
very
briefly
about
development,
although
it's
not
related
to
budget,
but
I
know
some
of
you
are
here
tonight.
The
area
south
of
I-95
is
new
to
the
fifth
district,
as
I
said,
which
means
that
I
am
dealing
with
development
issues
that
I
inherited
and
projects
that
I
sometimes
opposed
right.
Now,
I'm
working
with
Community
leaders
to
review
the
development
plan
at
the
LaFarge
Quarry
and
we're
in
interaction
with
the
county
department
of
planning
on
that
project.
E
G
I
think
everybody
knows
me:
I'm
County,
Executive,
Johnny,
olszewski
and
I,
first
and
foremost
want
to
thank
principal
bunciani
for
hosting
us
tonight.
Please
thank
them.
Our
host
for
having
us
tonight,
mm-hmm
I,
also
want
to
acknowledge
and
thank
two
of
your
other
Representatives
who
have
joined
us
tonight.
We're
joined
by
delegate,
Nick,
Allen
and
delegate
Ryan
naraki,
who
are
in
attendance
as
well
and
before
we
do
a
quick
overview
and
presentation
about
the
budget.
I
just
want
to
thank
councilman
David
Marks.
G
We
have
been,
we
come
from
different
parties,
but
we've
never
let
that
stop
us
from
having
sincere,
robust,
honest
conversations
about
how
we
can
drive
progress
and
I
think
he
he
deserves.
He
deserves.
Yes,.
G
Councilman
marks
there's
a
lot
of
credit.
It's
been.
It's
been
a
real
joy
and
honor
to
serve
alongside
him.
We
haven't
always.
He
hasn't
always
voted
for
everything.
I've
sent
his
way
and
that's
okay.
I
mean
that's
how
government's
supposed
to
work
in
the
few
times
that
we've
disagreed,
we've
never
been
disagreeable
and
he's
even
pushed
me
and
my
Administration
to
think
differently
about
how
we
can
advance
programs
together.
So
I
think
that's
how
government's
supposed
to
work.
G
I
think
that's
what
people
expect
of
me,
as
County
Executive
and
of
council
Marx,
as
your
councilman,
so
I
just
want
to
set
the
framework
that
I
think
these
conversations
are
helpful,
that
we're
also
hearing
directly
from
you.
So
with
that
I
have
a
brief
presentation
we'll
get
through
that,
and
then
we
want
to
open
the
floor
up
because
I
know
there's
a
lot
of
attendance
tonight.
This
is
a
real
Testament
to
all
of
you.
So
thank
you
for
your
presence
and
thank
you
in
advance
for
your
advocacy.
G
So
let's
talk
a
little
bit
about
our
budget.
We've
done
a
lot
together
these
past
four
years
and
whether
it's
opening
up
our
government
and
having
ethics
reforms
or
creating
the
County's
first
ever
Office
of
the
Inspector
General
something
we've
grown
every
year,
creating
the
County's
first
ever
3-1-1
service
having
our
office
of
community
engagement,
you
heard
from
Patrick
earlier
who's.
G
Your
dedicated
Outreach
representative,
Mandy
remmel
is
here
she's
the
director
of
the
of
the
office,
but
we
really
have
tried
to
make
incredible
strides
forward,
so
that
government
is
more
open,
accessible
and
connected
to
all
of
you.
Because
of
how
we've
tried
to
open
up
government
and
change
our
processes
we've
been
able
to
overcome
an
inherited
81
million
dollar
deficit.
G
G
Bcps
gets
over
two
billion
dollars
annually
from
Baltimore
County.
We
also
spent
significant
dollars
on
CCBC
and
our
libraries,
our
next
largest
Investments,
are
in
public
works
and
transportation,
the
roads,
the
sidewalks,
the
streetscaping.
We
have
470
million
dollars
in
public
safety,
and
we
pay
for
that
largely
through
property
values
and
our
income
taxes.
That's
on
the
operating
side.
That's
the
day-to-day
paying
our
people
having
our
contracts.
G
Then
we
also
have
the
capital
side
so,
on
the
capital
side,
about
half
of
all
of
our
money
comes
from
our
Metro
Water
fees
and
about
half
of
that
money
that
comes
in
goes
directly
back
out
into
paying
for
the
water
lines
the
sewer
lines
that
we
really
need.
That's
incredibly
aging
infrastructure
and
we'll
talk
about
water
and
sewer
briefly
later
on
the
rest
of
it
largely
comes
from.
G
What's
called
General
obligation,
bonds,
those
are
the
bonds
that
you
all
voted
for
this
past
November
general
election
borrowing
for
schools,
borrowing
for
Parks
borrowing
for
other
other
Investments.
There
are
other
fees
and
federal
funds
that
come
in
and
then
on
top
of
this
capital
budget,
which
is
over
three
billion
dollars
over
the
next
several
fiscal
years
and
the
operating
budget,
which
is
over
four
billion
dollars.
Just
this
fiscal
year,
we
leverage,
what's
called
pay
as
you
go
or
paygo
funding
to
do,
Capital,
Investments
and
what's
nice
about.
G
That
is
that
it
doesn't
count
against
our
limitations,
which
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
spending,
affordability
that
the
County
Council
sets
for
us
when
we
submit
our
budget.
So
that
is
one
of
the
things
that
is
legally
required
every
year,
councilman
Marx
and
his
colleagues
who
serve
on
the
spending.
Affordability,
basically
review
the
growth
of
our
County
or
the
expected
growth.
G
Our
County
will
see
and
they
set
the
rate
of
growth
which,
with
which
they
don't
want
to
see
our
operating
budget
exceed
so
things
like
think
about
things
like
salaries,
more
positions,
new
programs,
Etc.
We
take
that
information
so
that
we
give
every
department
and
every
agency
some
targets
so
that
we
can
responsibly
invest
in
things
like
retiree
health
care,
that
we
can
strategically
invest
more
in
our
people,
and
then
we
use
that
as
an
example.
So
the
current
budget
year
that
we're
in
fiscal
year
23
it's
over
a
four
billion
dollar
budget.
G
The
growth
factor
in
this
year's
budget
was
4.7
percent
that
allows
for
a
growth
of
107
million
dollars.
Now
107
million
dollars
seems
like
a
lot
of
money
in
new
spending
when
you
break
it
down
and
peel
that
back
a
little
bit
we
took
in
this
year's
budget,
almost
half
of
that
increase
has
been
put
into
the
salary
of
our
employees,
our
teachers,
our
firefighters,
our
police
officers,
our
general
government
workers,
25
percent
of
that
increase
has
gone
to
things
like
retiree
health
care
and
increased
cost
there
through
opeb
and
other
insurance
requirements.
G
17
goes
through
and
required
increases
in
think
about
things
like
Gas
and
energy
and
other
sort
of
built-in
costs
that
we
experience
as
a
government
that
leaves
13
for
new
programs.
So
again,
even
13
of
100
million
seems
like
a
lot,
but
when
you
start
thinking
about
what
we
heard
at
Town
Halls,
that
goes
really
fast.
So
what
we
invested
this
year,
we
had
a
lot
of
new
English
as
a
second
language
teachers
that
we
heard
loud
and
clear
that
BCPS
was
requesting.
G
We
also
put
in
other
counselors
and
school
support
staff
to
help
with
the
social
emotional
needs
of
our
children.
We
expanded
our
County
Ride
service
to
Saturdays
and
extend
extended
the
hours
we
put
in
a
second
set
of
turnout
gear
for
the
highest
responders
of
our
volunteer
fire
departments.
We
created
a
green
infrastructure
division
within
the
Department
of
Public,
Works
and
transportation,
and
we
created
new
reforestry
divisions
in
our
Department
of
Environmental
Protection
and
sustainability,
but
that
was
it.
G
It
got
spent
pretty
fast,
but
it
was
also
a
direct
reflection
of
what
we
heard
from
you:
So
speaking
of
schools,
half
of
our
budget,
significant
investment.
Every
year,
fiscal
23,
the
current
fiscal
year,
2.3
billion
dollars
of
County
General
funds
going
to
Baltimore
County
Public
Schools.
If
you
account
for
the
loss
and
enrollment
so
based
enrollment-based
maintenance
of
effort,
accounting
for
the
4
000
students
we're
under
since
the
pandemic,
hit,
we
increased
our
spending
by
70
million
dollars
under
what's
called
maintenance
of
effort.
That's
the
level
that
the
state
tells
us.
G
G
In
the
interim,
we
also
heard
loud
and
clear
that
our
Educators
wanted
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
were
being
competitive
and
keeping
up.
We
announced
a
mid-year,
pretty
unprecedented
agreement
where
we
funded
both
through
one-time
and
ongoing
expenses,
to
further
increase
educator
salaries
in
partnership
with
councilman
Marx
and
the
member
of
the
council
members
of
the
council.
We
have
really
moved
from
our
Educators
being
largely
middle
of
the
pack
to
among
some
of
the
highest
paid
teachers
in
the
state.
G
That's
not
to
say
that
we
want
to
stop
Madam
principle,
we're
not
done,
but
we
want
to.
We
want
to
just
set
the
stage
that
we've
we've
really
invested
record
dollars
into
education,
in
addition
to
hiring
over
300
new
positions
again,
even
as
we've
seen
enrollment
decline
by
over
4
000
kids.
Just
to
put
that
in
perspective,
we're
funding
currently
probably
over
three
full
new
high
schools
worth
of
Staff
than
we
would
because
of
the
the
enrollment
reductions
moving
forward
I've
committed
to
the
school
system.
G
We
don't
forget
about
the
capital
side,
so
we're
in
a
really
well
maintained
beautiful
school.
We
want
all
of
our
kids
to
have
that
experience,
so
we
have
developed
in
partnership
with
the
County
Council,
a
long-term
over
three
billion
dollar
Capital
Construction
plan.
It's
called
the
multi-year
Improvement
plan
for
all
schools.
Every
school
will
see
the
benefit
of
this.
G
We
are
opening
a
new
Northeast
Middle
School
over
a
hundred
million
dollar
of
investment
for
the
Northeast,
a
big
big
push
of
the
councilman
maintenance
upgrades
at
Kearney
and
Perry
Hall
Elementary,
as
well
as
Perry
Hall,
Middleton
High
School.
What's
great
about
this
plan
is
over
the
next
13
14
years.
It
also
will
eliminate
the
need
for
trailers.
We
will
actually
have
our
kids
inside
the
building
in
schools
that
have
all
had
critical
infrastructure
upgrades.
G
We
finally
have
bridged
the
gap
on
things
like
air
conditioning,
but
that's
the
Baseline
and
I'm
really
proud
of
our
partnership.
To
make
that
happen,
we
know
that
school
doesn't
stop
at
K-12,
we're
very
proud
of
our
work
in
partnership
with
councilman
marks
and
with
his
support
and
the
council
support.
G
Okay,
Escape
there
you
go
okay,
so,
in
addition
to
schools,
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
we
heard
loud
and
clear
from
our
Our.
Town
Halls
was
the
need
to
invest
more
in
communities,
and
so
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
most
excited
that
has
come
out
of
these
conversations
is
the
return
of
bulk
trash
pickup
in
Baltimore
County
and
in
our
first
year,
bringing
it
back.
We
have
served
almost
70
000
homes
across
Baltimore
County
and
we've
collected
almost
2
000
tons
of
trash
in
this
free
bulk
trash
pickup
service.
G
That's
done
twice
a
year
scheduled
with
you
and
curbside.
If
you
don't
know
when
your
pickups
are,
you
can
go
online
and
type
in
your
address
on
the
website
and
we'll
be
happy
to
make
sure
we
come
and
pick
up
your
stuff.
We
also
heard
loud
and
clear
about
the
need
for
more
code
enforcement.
We
had
a
code
enforcement
Workforce,
we've
hired
eight
new
code
enforcement
officers.
This
is
all
part
of
that
small
little
bit
of
growth
that
we
get
in
the
budget.
G
We
now
are
going
Beyond
just
being
reactive
to
complaints
that
come
in
and
we're
starting
to
work
with
Community
leaders
to
be
proactive
and
do
proactive
sweeps
so
that
we're
talking
to
folks
we
haven't
lost
track,
as
the
councilman
said
of
what
we
expect
to
hear,
and
we
we
know
is
important.
The
bread
and
butter
of
things
like
Road
resurfacing
and
traffic
calming
over
80
million
dollars
this
term
and
we're
going
to
continue
making
those
Investments
as
well,
but
again,
all
all
stuff
that
comes
out
of
that
very
small
pocket.
G
If
you
have
questions
we're
happy
to
answer
tonight,
I
think
the
Department
of
Aging,
along
with
all
of
our
departments,
are
here
for
that
other
Investments
specific
to
District,
Five
significant
Investments
again
I
mentioned
the
water
and
sewer
infrastructure.
Over
300
million
dollars
are
being
deployed
in
District
Five,
currently
including
11
million
dollars
in
the
Perry
Hall
Community
I
know
there
was
a
sewer
question
and
upgrade
I
want
to
actually
thank.
G
G
This
was
a
huge
item
from
last
year's
Town
Hall
I
want
to
thank
all
of
you
for
your
advocacy
for
this,
but
also
this
was
one
of
the
top
priorities
that
councilman
marks
brought
to
us.
We
are
have
two
million
dollars
in
the
budget
for
the
Honeygo
Boulevard
and
Crossroad
roundabout.
That
is
currently
in
the
preliminary
design
phase,
but
the
funding
is
in
place
so
that,
once
the
design
is
finished,
we'll
be
able
to
continue.
G
That's
again,
a
direct
result
of
your
advocacy
and
the
advocacy
of
your
councilman
Public
Safety
has
seen
continued
increases
in
investment.
We've
increased
more
support
staff.
We
put
more
school
resource
officers
in
the
budget
last
year,
just
over
28
million
dollars
of
growth.
These
past
two
years,
we're
very
proud
that,
as
we've
seen
spikes
and
increases
across
the
country,
Baltimore
County
saw
a
36
percent
decline
in
homicides
last
year,
a
hat
tip
to
the
men
and
women
of
the
Baltimore
County
Police
Department.
G
And
on
a
more
personal
note,
we
were
reminded
just
how
hard
it
is
to
do
the
work
that
they
do
when
I,
when
I
visited
one
of
our
officers,
the
night
that
he
was
injured
and
then
subsequently
he
knows
that
many
of
you
are
caring
for
him
and
praying
for
him.
G
But
it's
just
just
a
sad
reminder
of
you
know
they
all
deserve
to
to
go
home
to
their
families
too,
and
to
put
that
badge
on
and
serve
us.
We
just
we
thank
you
and
we
appreciate
what
you're
doing
not
just
every
day
but
to
help
keep
us
safe
in
addition
to
homicides
being
down
significantly
last
year.
We
also
are
proud
that
when
things
happen,
we
clear
crimes.
We
find
people
who
commit
crimes,
we
hold
them
accountable.
We
have
significantly
higher
than
the
national
average.
G
When
it
comes
to
clearance
rates
for
homicides,
we
will
continue
making
investments
in
public
safety,
but
we
also
recognize
that
Public
Safety
needs
to
be
holistic,
so
we
also
have
invested
in
things
like
mental
health.
We
have
a
911
clinician
in
our
call
center
to
help
better
divert
calls
as
they
come
in
we've
expanded.
G
I
think
moving
forward
this
year
to
take
it
to
the
next
step.
Miami
Beach
Park
is
being
renovated.
Enhanced
Oliver,
Beach
and
Seneca
Elementary
they're
multi-court
purpose
courts
are
going
to
be
state-of-the-art
amenities
and
we're
looking
forward
to
freshly
painted
lines.
The
Beloved
sukup
area,
indoor
pickleball
court
had
a
chance
to
play
Pickleball
with
my
friends
at
Jacksonville
senior
center
for
the
first
time
and
I
lost
in
addition
to
our
investments
in
Recreation
and
Parks.
G
We're
also
expanding
our
tree
canopy
in
our
more
urban
communities
that
have
not
had
that
investment
through
our
operation
Retreat
program
we're
bringing
back
glass
recycling
that
was
suspended
back
in
2013.
That
is
now
back
in
place.
We
are
capturing
methane,
leaving
our
landfills,
so
sustainability
has
also
been
on
our
agenda.
G
That's
a
lot
of
where
we've
been
and
where
we
are
moving
forward.
Just
a
couple
of
thoughts
of
what
has
been
sort
of
my
professed
priority
these
next.
This
next
term,
one
is
around
the
issue
of
housing.
G
We
have
legislation
before
the
County
Council
to
do
four
things
and
I
appreciate
the
councilman's
openness
to
have
conversations
I,
don't
I,
don't
expect
the
councilman
to
vote
for
all
four
of
my
bills,
but
I
appreciate
the
ways
in
which
he's
engaged
in
dialogue,
and
there
are
some
things
he
might
support
and
other
things
he
might
not
and
I.
G
Think
again,
as
we
said,
the
top
that's
good,
but
we're
proposing
four
things:
first,
we're
proposing
to
create
a
Housing
Opportunity
fund
so
that
we
can
make
attainable
housing
more
available
for
all
of
our
residents.
So
if
you
are
someone
who
serves
at
a
restaurant
or
if
you're,
a
teacher
who
makes
less
than
sixty
thousand
dollars
as
a
starting
salary,
you
should
be
able
to
afford
a
house
and
we
want
to
have
a
fund,
that's
dedicated,
to
ensuring
that
that's
possible.
G
We're
looking
to
update
our
townhome
construction
policy
so
that
we
can
make
housing
more
affordable
just
in
terms
of
the
size
of
the
construction
and
we're
hoping
to
allow
more
family
members
to
be
able
to
live
together
in
units
that
are
attached
to
or
near
the
house,
to
expand
expanding
the
definition
of
family
to
allow
that
for
more
family
members
and
to
allow
more
of
our
seniors
to
age
in
place
where
our
second
priority
this
term
is
Workforce.
We're
really
looking
at.
G
How
do
we
break
down
the
barriers
for
anyone
who
wants
to
have
the
opportunity
to
a
high
pla,
high-paying
high
quality
job,
and
one
of
the
best
examples
was
right
out
of
the
shoot.
We
announced
a
partnership
with
University
St
Joseph
Maryland
Medical
system
ums,
where
they
put
in
money.
We
use
some
of
our
recovery
funding
from
the
federal
government
and
we
have
a
pipeline
where
we
are
taking
some
of
our
most
vulnerable
residents
and
creating
a
pipeline
where
they
will
become
nurses
within
two
years.
G
They
have
guaranteed
jobs
with
the
hospital
system,
we'll
take
them
out
of
some
of
the
challenges
they're
facing
and
we're
going
to
provide
all
the
wrap
around
services
to
help
them
address
things
like
child
care
or
Transportation
paying
for
classes,
because
I
think
really.
The
best
thing
you
can
give
a
person
is
a
job.
If
you
give
them
a
job,
they
can
be
self-sufficient
and
really
create
a
future
for
themselves
and
I'm
excited
about
this
partnership
and
we're
hoping
to
replicate
it
last
priority.
G
This
term
is
capital
I'm,
going
to
hear
a
lot
from
you
tonight,
I
think
about
investments
in
our
amazing
Museum,
preserving
public
land,
more
Recreation
space
I,
see
you
guys
in
the
back,
but
that's
that's
the
third
priority,
so
we
really
want
to
keep
making
those
Investments
so
that
we're
investing
in
our
police
officers
and
our
firefighters
to
give
them
the
police
stations
and
the
fire
stations
they
deserve.
G
Our
senior
centers,
our
libraries
and
our
community
institutions,
so
we're
going
to
try
not
to
not
only
finish
the
job
that
we
started
by
investing
in
some
significant
programs
in
the
beginning,
but
also
listening
and
working
with
you
to
have
more
projects
continue
these
next
four
years,
so
I'll
just
wrap
on
sort
of
capital
and
infrastructure,
I'm
very
proud
that
we
had
a
historic
announcement
with
the
governor,
the
mayor
of
Baltimore,
myself,
representatives
and
Our
House
and
Senate
delegations,
where
we
finally
have
a
path
forward
to
look
at
our
water
and
sewer
systems.
G
G
We
don't
still
communicate
with
I
mean
someone
told
the
joke
about
like
technology
that
was
20
years
old
and
said
we
don't
communicate
with
beepers
anymore.
This
is
older
than
that.
So
we're
really
taking
a
holistic
look
about
modernizing
our
billing,
our
governance
structure,
so
that
we
are
modern,
efficient
but
also
making
sure
we're
delivering
quality
services.
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
working
with
our
delegation
to
have
some
recommendations
on
that
last
point.
G
If
you
are
caring
about
what's
the
sort
of
the
future
of
this,
we've
got
Town
Hall
meetings
through
March
I
submit
officially
my
budget
to
the
County
Council
on
April
13th.
So,
in
addition
to
these
meetings,
I'll
have
a
separate
meeting
with
councilman
marks
where
he
will
sort
of
reinforce
his
priorities,
which
will
largely
align
with
yours.
G
Council
will
do
a
review
and
they
have
to
adopt
the
budget
by
the
end
of
May
before
we
open
it
up
turn
things
back
over
to
Patrick
folks
are
passing
out
some
papers
which
you
don't
have
to
hold
on
to
you
can
share
and
in
fact,
I
think.
We've
got
such
a
large
crowd.
We're
going
to
encourage
you
to
share
we're
going
to
do
a
live
poll.
G
This
is
always
a
little
fun
and
dangerous,
but
we
like
to
sort
of
give
everyone
the
chance
to
democratize
just
sort
of
a
sense
of
your
experiences
with
County
government
and
your
thoughts
around
the
budget.
So
if
you
have
a
phone,
I
want
to
just
pull
up
your
picture
function
either
on
the
piece
of
paper.
That's
coming
and
then
punch
the
the
QR
code.
G
Okay,
so
the
first
question
is
a
pretty
simple
one:
I
mentioned
that
one
of
the
first
things
that
we
did.
Oh
sorry,
we
jumped
ahead.
Okay,
first
question:
this
is
our
fifth
year
of
the
Town
Hall
series
and
again
I
love
that
we're
getting
such
great
turnout
five
years
in
I
hope,
that's
a
reflection
that
the
councilman
and
I
are
trying
to
be
responsive.
But
is
this
I'm
just
curious
like
for
how
many
of
you
is
this
your
first
time
coming
out
how
many
your
second,
how
many
your?
G
Third,
if
you've,
got
your
QR
code
punched
up,
you
can
just
tell
us
and
then
we'll
show
your
neighbors.
G
G
I
hope
that
some
of
those
first
timers
become
second
third,
fourth
and
fifth
timers
I.
Guess,
second,
third,
and
fourth-
is
what
we
got
left,
but
we'll
give
it
just
one
more
second,
but
this
is
a
really
great
showing
by
a
lot
of
first
timers
101
votes,
almost
80
percent.
That's
great
I've,
seen
five
percent
of
if
you're
a
fifth
timer
who's
been
here
for
all
of
them.
Some
staff
members,
some
community
members,
that's
amazing!
G
G
My
I
think
this
is
the
last
one
two
one
more
after
this
one.
Okay,
so
my
top
three
budget
priorities
are
and
I'm
going
to
take.
This
slide.
G
Here
we
go:
School
Capital
School
operating
Recreation
facilities,
Green
Space
agricultural
preservation,
Road
resurfacing,
pedestrian
safety,
Public
Safety
Housing
and
Community
Development
Workforce
Development.
G
Looks
like
Public
Safety
is
a
pretty
strong,
along
with
recreational
facilities.
School
capital
and
operating
Green
Space
are
all
over
40
percent.
G
G
And
if
you
haven't
so
311
is
a
is
a
One-Stop
shop.
If
you
want
to
call
in
a
complaint
about
a
Code
Enforcement
issue,
if
you
have
a
trash
concern,
if
you
have
a
question
about
your
tax
bill,
do
we
have
someone
who
wants
to
give
the
the
full
run
on
3-1-1
but
yeah,
any
sort
of
like
Community
need
call
3-1-1
and
if
they
can't
directly
answer
your
question,
they'll
make
sure
they
patch
you
into
the
the
appropriate
Department.
G
So
if
you,
if
you
need
it,
and
you
haven't
used
it
for
the
80
of
you
who
haven't,
give
it
a
try
anytime,
you
have
an
issue
next
time.
We
also
have
an
app
bulk
code.
Go
so
while
you're
on
your
smartphones-
and
you
want
to
download
that
app.
You
can
also
register
any
concerns
about
things
like
code
enforcement,
trash
Etc
via
your
app
Vault
code,
go
or
311.
G
very
cool.
Thank
you
all
for
the
time
and
attention
I
know
the
councilman
I
look
forward
to
hearing
from
you.
I'm
gonna
turn
things
over
to
Patrick,
I
think
to
to
Mandy
to
go
over
our
plans
for
the
night
and
then
we'll
turn
things
over
to
you
after
the
council.
E
I
Okay,
good
evening,
everyone
before
we
start
moving
towards
the
mics,
we
just
wanted
to
take
a
minute
and
let
you
know
that
there
are
two
designated
microphones
here
in
the
front
of
the
auditorium.
We
ask
that
when
you
come
up
to
the
microphone,
you
will
have
two
minutes
which
will
be
monitored
by
the
clock
here
to
State
your
budget
related
priority
or
ask
a
budget
related
question
or
share
your
budget
related
idea.
I
We
are
asking
that
you
please.
We
will
give
you
a
reminder
at
the
32nd
Mark
that
you
have
30
seconds
left
and
then
the
buzzer
will
buzz.
You
will
hear
a
little
buzz
and
we
just
asked
you
to
please
conclude
your
testimony
at
that
time.
There
are
a
lot
of
individuals
in
here
tonight.
We're
happy
to
see
all
of
you.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
coming
out.
I
We
would
like
to
say
that
if
you
do
hear
the
same
Community
testimony
or
you
hear
the
same
project
mentioned,
please
feel
free
when
you
come
up
stay.
If
it's
already
been
mentioned
state
your
name
and
you
can
State,
you
know
that
you
support
that
priority
or
if
you
have
something
new
to
share,
you
can
add
that
at
as
well
and
lastly,
there
are
for
the
the
groups
that
are
here
this
evening.
I
We
ask
that
you
have
one
representative
from
your
group:
share
your
budget
related
priority
or
idea,
and
then,
if
there
are
any
documentations
or
if
you
have
papers
or
posters
or
anything
that
you
would
like
the
executive
and
the
councilman
to
have,
we
will
make
sure
that
we
can
collect
that
at
the
end
and
get
them
to
the
administration.
So
with
that
and.
G
Just
if
you
have
something
else
to
add
it's
okay
to
be
with
the
same
organization,
but
I
will
also
ask
for
anyone
who
is
here
representing
an
organization,
that's
not
playing
to
speak
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
stand
so
we
can
actually
get
a
count
of
how
many
individuals
we're
here
supporting
so
again
like
we
don't
want
anyone
to
feel
like
they
can't
speak.
G
But
if
you
have
something
else
to
add
relative
to
the
work
of
your
organization
or
your
request,
we
welcome
that,
but
otherwise
we're
happy
to
and
then
just
last
before
we
start
I
realized.
We
were
joined
by
our
board
member
Julie
hen
who's
also
here
tonight,
so
I
want
to
acknowledge
you
Julie
as
well.
So
thank
you.
I
J
J
J
Okay.
How
do
we
come
to
our
figures?
Boeing's
Museum
of
Flight
in
Seattle?
They
see
over
700
000
people
a
year
in
their
Museum.
We
have
a
bigger
collection,
a
better
story
to
tell
and
a
deeper
history.
You
know
they
say
the
Wright
brothers
and
been
at
the
airplane,
but
we
built
it
at
Middle,
River
and
the
people
at
Middle
River
deserve
this.
It's
our
heritage.
It's
who
we
are
people
should
know
who
we
are.
J
G
Yeah,
especially
if
you're
not
going
to
speak
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
count
of
folks
who
are
here
to
support
the
museum
in
its
ass
tonight,
as
as
Mandy
is
doing
that
I
also
will
just
I
also
will
just
say
in
addition
to
an
incredible
history,
you
you
guys
put
on
a
fantastic
train
garden
as
well.
My
daughter
has
enjoyed
it
several
years
now,
so.
E
K
L
H
K
M
N
What
can
be
done
at
this
point
to
eliminate
the
Pud,
the
Pud
from
the
LaFarge
property
on
Earls
Road,
and
to
put
into
the
county
budget,
using
possibly
federal
state
and
County
funds
to
purchase
to
for
the
purchase
of
the
leverage
property
and
the
CP
crane
property
to
enhance
marshy
Point
Nature
Center?
Thank
you.
M
And
I'd
like
to
say
that
marshy
Point,
Nature
Center,
was
purchased
by
the
county,
probably
about
30
years
ago,
from
our
former
County
Executive
Don
Hutchins
and
my
wife
was
part
of
the
gunpowder
nature
planning
board
and
they
took
him
on
a
cruise
around
the
shoreline
and
through
that
they
were
able
to
convince
him
to
think
forward
and
purchase
5
500
Acres
on
the
gunpowder
or
soft
Pier
Creek's
Dundee
saw
Peter
creeks,
and
now
we
have
that
beautiful
nature
center
down
there,
which
is
the
jewel
of
nature
centers.
M
As
far
as
the
east
side
of
the
county,
it's
the
only
Nature
Center
in
Baltimore
County,
that's
on
the
water,
and
we
would
like
certainly
to
see
that
enhanced
by
purchasing
the
forage
property.
I
was
appalled
at
the
fact
that
our
former
County
council
person,
against
the
wishes
of
20
Community
organizations,
put
that
PUD
on
the
forge
property.
M
So
hopefully
that
can
be
changed
and
may
be
purchased
by
the
county,
with
possibly
state
and
federal
funding,
and
also
the
CP
crane
property
and
by
the
way
someone
mentioned
about
the
seniors,
I
think
I'm,
probably
the
oldest
one.
Here,
95
and
13
days,
where
to
go.
E
Regarding
the
LaFarge
plan
unit
development
I
voted
against
extending
public
water
to
Earls
Road
in
August.
I
voted
against
the
plan
unit
development
in
October.
E
A
majority
of
the
County
Council
disagreed
with
me
both
times
as
a
councilman.
I
now
have
consequences
of
those
votes.
There
will
be
a
community
input
meeting
a
week
from
tonight
at
the
gunpowder
VFW
at
seven
o'clock,
where
you
can
come
and
offer
your
opinion.
I
have
formed
a
task
force
of
community
and
Business
Leaders
from
the
area.
That's
looking
at
options
for
that
site.
E
E
I
would
love
to
have
CP
crane
as
a
park
and
I've
also
taken
steps
to
slow
down
any
development
there
as
well,
but
there's
limited
resources
and
we're
going
to
need
help
from
the
federal
and
the
state
governments
as
well
to
purchase
all
this
property
and
also
lafarge's
private
property.
So
they
have
to
be
willing
to
sell
to
us.
The
thing
I
do
not
want
to
see
at
LaFarge
is
2
000
apartments
at
some
point
in
the
future,
so
we
have
to.
We
have
to
be
very
clear,
very
deliberative
and
think
through
the
process.
E
G
Thank
you
Ray,
and
we
we
expect
to
see
you
again.
We
look
forward
to
seeing
you
again
next
year
as
as
well,
if
I
could
just
sort
of
chime
in
and
just
add
to
what
the
councilman
said
in
addition
to
the
council
continuing
to
look
at
the
underlying
zoning.
That's
permitted
under
the
Pud
I
know
that
the
department
of
planning
is
currently
reviewing
some
of
the
submissions
that
that
came
in
the
wake
of
on
the
LaFarge
property.
In
Wake
of
the
passage
that
the
councilman
mentioned,
he
voted
against.
G
I,
don't
know
if
director
Lafferty
or
someone
is
here
in
the
initial
responses
from
you
can
stand
up.
Steve
I'll
give
you
a
microphone
I'll,
let
Steve
speak
through
it,
but
but
the
department,
as
part
of
the
development
review
process,
in
addition,
has
expressed
I
think
some
of
the
concerns
that
the
community
has
has
mentioned,
which
would
be
part
of.
Ultimately,
if,
if
the
putt
isn't
changed
be
part
of
an
administrative
law,
judges
review
would
have
to
consider
some
of
the
input
from
the
planning
department.
I,
hope.
That's
right,
Steve!
O
Mr
County
Executive
I,
never
correct
you
just
to
build
on
what
you
said,
though,
good
afternoon
good
evening:
everybody
I'm
a
terrific
crowd.
O
Obviously
the
LaFarge
property
presents
a
lot
of
challenges,
as
well
as
a
lot
of
opportunities.
They
have
submitted
a
community,
the
first
step
going
to
a
concept
plan.
We
had
extensive
comments
on
that.
We're
hoping
that
they'll
be
responsive
and
understand
the
significance
of
this
site,
but
they're
in
their
very
early
stages,
because
it
is
a
PUD.
O
It
does
not
have
the
same
restrictions
on
the
zoning
or
the
uses
that
can
happen
on
that
property,
but
as
we
work
with
them
and
work
through
what
the
real
challenges
are,
because
it
is
a
site,
that's
being
reclaimed,
they
have
to
have
a
Reclamation
plan
from
the
state,
for
instance,
but
we
also
know
that
Ebenezer's
constricted
Earls
is
constricted
so
lot
of
limitations
even
for
the
uses
they
propose,
but
we're
going
to
continue
to
hold
fast
to
make
sure
the
community's
concerns
are
taken
to
account
as
we
keep
moving
forward.
Thanks.
G
Steve
and
then
I'll
just
on
the
second
piece
of
that-
and
this
is
I-
know,
there's
a
lot
of
folks
who
are
here
as
well
for
CP
crane.
As
the
councilman
mentioned
I
mean
both
of
these
Parcels
are
privately
owned.
I
am
more
than
open
to
working
with
the
community
and
the
councilman
to
identifying
local
resources
to
apply
towards
the
preservation
of
part
or
all,
depending
on
what
we're
able
to
work
out.
G
It
sounds
like
there's
candidly,
a
more
openness
to
potentially
doing
something
that
the
CP
crane
site
in
terms
of
a
a
sale
to
the
government.
So
we
will
certainly
pursue
that
and
have
conversations
around
that,
but
but
clearly
we're
happy
to
provide
some
of
the
resources.
I
would
just
Echo
the
councilman's
sediments,
particularly
if
you're
talking
about
both
sites.
It's
a
significant
amount
of
money.
So
we
are
also
talking
to
our
state
and
federal
Partners
to
see
what
Solutions
might
be
out
there.
Working
with
all
of
you.
L
And
I'm
asking
for
health
clinics.
P
P
P
P
L
P
P
L
Q
Q
We
continue
to
appreciate
the
support
you
expressed
for
the
idea
of
the
park
in
your
public
comments.
That
day
we
are
now
ready
to
move
forward
and
on
further
collaboration,
including
the
challenges
of
funding,
The,
Truth
and
Reconciliation
part.
The
Coalition,
along
with
participating,
Civic
and
Faith
organizations
and
Community
associations,
has
the
capacity
to
contribute
to
fundraising
educational
efforts
to
participate
in
the
design
process
and
to
involve
hundreds
of
County
residents
in
the
work
to
create,
maintain
and
sustain
the
proposed
Truth
and
Reconciliation
part.
G
Thank
you,
I
think
you
guys
are
all
connected
with
cevitra
peoples
in
the
executive
office
and
also,
if
savitra,
if
I'm
sure
there'll,
be
some
questions
too
so
Bob
Smith,
the
director
of
reckon
Parks,
if
you
could
just
waved
everybody
he's,
probably
going
to
be
very
popular
tonight
too,
so
we'll
make
sure
if
you're
not
connected
with
Bob
as
well.
Thank
you
very
much.
R
R
R
L
L
S
G
G
So
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
talk
about
that
at
all
and
then
I
also
on
the
schools
front,
we
added
the
40
or
so
English
as
a
second
language
teachers
in
last
year's
budget,
largely
because
of
what
we
heard
from
many
of
you
and
other
education,
Advocates
I,
don't
know
if
Dr
Mary,
Boswell
McComas
is
here
from
BCPS.
She
had
been
attending
other.
If
you
wanted
to
talk
a
little
bit
doc
about
sort
of
the
thought
in
terms
of
moving
those
supports
back
into
the
community.
T
U
Evening,
County
Executive
hilshewski
councilman
Marx
everyone
here,
my
name
is
Juliana
Valencia
Banks
I
serve
as
Baltimore
County's.
First
immigration
Affairs
Outreach
coordinator.
It
is
my
extreme
privilege
to
serve
as
a
bridge
between
all
of
our
immigrant
communities,
County
Government
and
the
different
organizations
that
serve
them.
U
C
Good
evening,
when
I
started,
my
name
is
Anna
Weisberg
I'm,
a
reading
teacher
at
Deep
Creek
Middle
in
Essex
I
I,
was
hired
as
a
reading
resource
teacher
and
said.
I
am
filling
the
hole
left
by
a
novice
grade,
6
reading
teacher,
who
left
three
weeks
into
the
school
year
for
a
non-teaching
job
once
when
I
was
able
to
do
my
job
as
a
resource
teacher
at
a
high
Needs
school
I
was
doing
small
groups
in
a
first
grade
classroom
a
boy
walked
over
to
me
and
asked
quietly.
C
C
I
left
Devin,
knowing
he
was
going
to
be
successful
as
a
student,
and
we
his
community
would
reap
the
benefit
of
his
evolving
awesomeness
right
now.
I
do
not
have
the
capacity
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
Devins,
the
kids,
who
need
that
little
something
extra
to
find
their
strength
and
meet
their
potential.
C
We
know
that
Baltimore
County's
population
has
Diversified
over
the
past
10
years,
yet
BCPS
has
spent
less
per
student
annually
once
inflation
is
taken
into
account.
Our
County
needs
you
to
develop
just
an
equitable
budget
that
truly
reflects
our
educational
values
and
meets
the
counties.
Evolving
needs
a
budget
that
would
allow
us
to
recruit
and
retain
the
staff
we
need
for
every
Devin
so
that
they
and
we
Baltimore
County
can
Thrive.
Thank
you.
V
Hello,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
we
heard
a
little
bit
on
puds
already
and
I'm,
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
property
at
the
North
Point
government
center,
and
this
sign
was
made
by
Kevin
Hatfield
and
actually
talked
about
in
a
PUD
meeting
with
the
developer.
Lynn
Weinberg
and
Lynn
Weinberg
was
asked
if
he
would
sell
the
residents
of
Baltimore
County
a
piece
of
his
property
for.
V
20.25
million
dollars-
and
his
answer
was
no
sir,
so
this
this
process
has
only
went
halfway
through
that
I
know
we're
not
getting
the
transparency
on
this
that
we
need
so
they're
about
halfway
done
on
this,
that
that
I'm,
aware
of
because
the
police
station
is
open.
But
then
we
still
have
another
five
million
dollars
on
roads
and
easements.
We
have
another
million
dollars
on
a
turf
field
that
is
up
in
the
air.
Things
go
back
and
forth
and
the
it's
been
renegotiated
and
has
gotten
worse.
To
be
quite
honest
with
you.
V
V
They
gave
it
to
me.
So
I
can
wind
up
making
a
presentation
about
this.
So
it's
been
a
bad
deal
since
the
very
beginning.
I,
don't
have
any
more
time
it
seems,
but
but
but
the
real
the
real
deal
is
that
at
the
very
end
of
this
whole
thing
is
that
if
this
property
sold
and
we
need
a
new
school,
we
need
more
property
I'm,
putting
things
together
and
looking
at
the
cost
of
new
schools
and
things
of
that
nature.
When
and
putting
the
property
on
top
of
it.
V
I
would
not
be
surprised
of
this
deal
that
they
were
saying
was
going
to
be
2.1
million
dollars
that
they
bought
renegotiated
and
actually
the
developer
may
be
paying
about
a
half
a
million
dollars
and
it
could
cost
the
taxpayers
somewhere
in
the
neighborhood
my
estimation
of
with
a
for
a
new
school
new
property,
250
million
dollars.
So
I
would
like
anybody
to
raise
their
hand
that
thinks
this
is
a
good
deal.
V
S
Good
evening
I'm
Lloyd
Allen
special
educator
in
mathematics
and
tabco
board
of
directors,
member
speaking
on
behalf
of
Cindy
Sexton
temco
president.
In
elementary
school
librarian,
you
have
heard
Cindy
speak,
so
you
know
her
priority
is
retaining
and
recruiting
Educators
to
BCPS
tabco
believes
that
a
properly
staffed
school
will
help
improve
learning
outcomes
and
help
address
disciplined
concerns.
We
can't
appropriately
and
effectively
meet
the
needs
of
our
students
when
we
don't
have
the
staff
it's
impossible.
While
BCPS
has
made
strides
in
increasing
salaries,
we
still
rank
ninth
in
the
states
in
career
earnings.
S
What
we
need
as
a
step
in
the
right
direction,
is
the
salary
scale
compression
that
we
won
with
BCPS
last
school
year.
That
is
our
budget
priority,
an
historic
restructuring
of
our
salary
scale,
so
Baltimore
County
can
compete
with
the
other
school
systems
in
Maryland,
so
our
students
can
have
the
best
opportunities
for
successes.
A
healthy
school
system
means
a
healthy
County
people
move
to
locations
because
they
want
their
children
in
the
schools
there,
property
values
rise,
money
is
brought
into
the
county
and
the
rising
tide
raises
All
Ships
our
students.
S
W
So
that's
true
good
evening
my
name
is
Gus.
Stamilis
I
am
here
on
behalf
of
white
Council,
and
the
reason
I'm
here
is
to
respectfully
ask
that
cowington
Ridge
Park
be
turfed.
There
are
three
very
important
reasons
to
Turf
this
park.
The
first
is
White
Marsh
rec
council
lost
a
lot
lost
several
Fields
due
to
the
new
Middle
School
being
ham
Park.
The
second
is
this
park
is
an
amazing
Park,
there's
already
lights
there,
it's,
but
it's
kind
of
like
in
a
fishbowl,
and
it
is
always
wet
and
muddy.
W
There's
been
several
efforts
to
correct
the
drainage
and
it
has
just
not
been
able
to
be
corrected,
and
the
the
third
very
important
reason
is
is
that
this
would
benefit
our
community
tremendously.
White
Marsh
rec
council
is
one
of
the
largest
Rec
councils
in
in
Baltimore
County.
There
are
literally
thousands
of
kids
that
are
a
part
of
this
that
would
benefit
from
this.
This
park
already
has
lights
there.
It
would
be
used
five
nights
a
week,
three
nights
from
six
to
nine
at
the
very
least,
and
then
on
weekends.
W
It's
within
the
White
Marsh
rec
council.
It's
literally
a
five
minute
drive
from
just
about
everybody
in
the
whole
White
Marsh,
rec,
council,
it's
so
centrally
located
Perry,
Hall,
White
Marsh
is
a
program
run
by
volunteers
like
myself,
it's
it's
my
honor
to
if
everybody
could
stand
up
that
are
here
with
me.
W
I
coach,
my
daughter's
teams,
my
one
daughter,
is
nine
years
old,
my
other's
14
years
old,
and
it's
it's
it's
my
pleasure
to
to
do
this
because
we
give
back
to
the
kids
and
they
learn
all
the
the
life
lessons
that
come
along
with
playing
sports
and
we
do
it
in
a
positive
way.
We
give
back
to
the
community
I
want
to
highlight
that
Senator
Jennings
has
supported
this
program
and
has
requested
a
2
150
000
bond
in
state
funding.
W
H
E
A
W
Z
G
Before
we
excuse
our
young
people,
who
probably
have
earlier
bedtimes
than
most
of
the
rest
of
us,
if
any
do
any
of
you
want
to
talk
about
your
ex
like
I,
just
want
to
make
sure
if
any
of
our
young
folks
want
to
I.
Think
it's
great.
G
Let's
give
another
round
of
applause
for
our
young
people,
for
showing
up
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
if
any
of
you
have.
If
you
any
of
you,
want
to
take
30
seconds
and
talk
about
the
teams
or
we're
playing,
if
not
that's,
okay,
but
thank
you
guys
for
coming
and
to
all
the
coaches
as
the
parent
of
a
feisty
seven-year-old
ice,
skater,
basketball,
player
soccer
player.
G
Thank
you
for
the
time
that
you
put
into
our
kids
I,
make
it
to
her
games,
but
unfortunately,
I
only
get
to
like
fill
in
coaching
every
once
in
a
while.
So
I
don't,
but,
but
really
it's
awesome
that
you
guys
do
that.
So
thank
you
for
your
presence
and
for
all
you
do.
G
And
I
I
think
I
introduced,
delegate
and
Rocky
earlier,
but
he
has
officially
arrived,
so
folks
will
need
to
catch
him
tonight
as
well.
So
thanks
delegate.
AA
Good
evening

That
is

Hello:
everyone,
my
name,
is
Peter
Forrest
and
I'm
here
to
request
Baltimore
County
to
set
aside
funding
for
disc
golf
in
Baltimore
County
disc
golf
is
one
of
the
fastest
growing
sports
in
America
right
now.
Baltimore
County
has
one
course,
I
repeat
one
course
in
the
County
of
Baltimore,
County
and
and
the
kicker
is
it's
42
years
old
too.
So
it
was
the
second
oldest
core
course
in
the
state
of
Maryland.
X
It
was
built
in
or
installed
I
guess
you
would
say
in
1981.,
so
I
think
that's
long
overdue
for
us
to
get
a
second
or
third
course
built
or
installed.
In
Maryland
disc
golf
courses
are
relatively
inexpensive.
The
cost
is
around
a
thousand
dollars
per
hole.
That's
including
like
a
basket
and
a
t-pad
to
throw
off
of
so
you're
talking
about,
like
eighteen
to
twenty
thousand
dollars
for
an
18
hole.
Golf
course
so
relatively
cheap
compared
to
other
sports
disc
golf
is
also
a
very
small
footprint.
X
Unlike
soccer
and
baseball
fields
where
you
have
to
level
and
grade
and
install
everything,
disc
golf
can
be
tailored
and
and
designed
according
to
the
the
layout
of
the
of
whatever
field
or
wooded
area
that
you're
using
disc
golf
builds
local
communities.
X
It
encourages
outdoor
activity
that
we
saw
a
huge
spike
in
the
covid.
You
know
pandemic
lockdown,
where
people
were
going
outside
and
seeking
outside
activities.
It
encourages
families
to
connect
and
be
able
to
play
together.
It
creates
a
local
scene
for
for
players
to
connect
with
one
another
and
create
neighborhood
clubs
and
groups.
X
X
We
are
specifically
looking
for
the
properties
at
Dave's,
Cove
and
also
at
Mount,
Vista,
Park
I
think
those
would
be
great
disc
golf
courses
to
install.
So.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.
G
You
I'm
gonna
turn
I'm
gonna
I
am
going
to
give
director
Smith
an
opportunities.
I
I
think
we
actually
put
some
money
in
the
budget
last
year
to
start
work
at
Dave's
Cove
and
if
it's
as,
if
it's
as
affordable,
as
you
say,
we
should
be
able
to
get
it
done
with
what
was
already
budgeted
and
I
know
we're.
Also.
We
are
also
looking
at
Mount
Vista,
but
director
Smith.
AB
Yes,
sir,
you
are
correct.
We
have
250
000
allocated
in
the
budget
for
design
for
days
Cove,
and
we
are
scheduling
a
public
input
meeting
for
April.
AC
My
name
is
Kim
Paws
Tucker,
I'm,
executive,
director
of
gunpowder,
Valley,
Conservancy
and
I'm
here
today
to
speak
on
behalf
of
GBC
as
well
as
Baltimore
County
Land
Trust
Alliance
in
support
of
your
land
preservation
initiatives
in
Baltimore,
County
State,
national
and
global
leaders
are
currently
calling
for
preserving
40
percent
of
natural
lands
by
2040
and
Baltimore
county
is
already
well
on
our
way
to
achieving
this
really
ambitious
goal,
with
approximately
28
percent
of
our
lands
preserved
as
Farmland
Parks
and
Recreation
areas.
AC
So
that's
really
great,
but
in
order
to
get
to
40
percent,
that's
going
to
take
continued
commitment
from
the
County
government,
as
well
as
other
governmental
organizations,
and
we
appreciate
the
previous
support
for
this
program
in
the
past.
So,
as
you
know,
preserved
land
is
important
for
ecological
benefits,
but
also
for
human
health
and
public
health
benefits,
as
well
as
the
gentleman
was
speaking
about
before.
AC
Opportunities
for
recreation,
but
also
preserve
Farmland
ensures
that
our
residents
have
access
to
local
Farm
goods
and
value-added
agricultural
products,
and
something
that
GBC
is
specifically
interested
in
is
clean.
Clean
water,
clean
streams
and
fresh
clean
drinking
water
by
protecting
our
reservoirs,
overwhelmingly
Maryland
residents,
support
open
space
according
to
Prior
polls,
and
the
BCL
ta
asks
that
that
and
I
provided
a
handout.
AC
But
the
BCL
ta
asked
that
the
county
dedicate
one
percent
of
the
capital
budget
to
land
preservation
programs,
increase
emphasis
on
acquiring
and
maintaining
accessible
Parkland
within
the
erdle,
commit
to
continued
funding
of
the
BCL
ta
increase
the
current
agricultural
land
preservation
goal
fund,
environmental
improvements
on
preserved
land
include
stream,
buffers
and
invasive
species
controls.
It's
two
more
extend
the
current
five-year
property
tax
exemption
for
land
owned
by
land,
trust
and
increase
the
protection
of
corridors
for
recreation
and
Wildlife.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
the
opportunity.
AC
AD
Hello,
my
name
is
Ben
church.
Thank
you,
Mr,
olshowski,
Jr
and
councilman
I'm,
also
representing
disc
golf.
By
this
time.
Next
month
we
will
have
formed
a
certified
not-for-profit,
representing
Baltimore,
County
disc
golf.
It
is
a
rapidly
growing
sport.
It's
been
played
for
a
very
long
time,
but
over
the
pandemic
it
has
exploded.
The
kids
love
it.
Everybody
entire
families
can
play
We're
excellent
stewards
of
the
land.
We
pick
up
trash,
we
maintain
Fallen
trees
and
we
do
everything
in
our
power
to
keep
the
parks
that
we
utilize
clean.
AD
What
we're
asking
for
is
to
partner
with
the
county
more
closely
to
develop
access
and
also
certain
amenities,
such
as
bathrooms,
Porta-Johns
and
trash
cans.
We
do
not
have
enough
trash
cans
on
the
parks
in
this
County,
and
that
means
that
people
throw
trash
on
the
ground.
We
would
like
a
way
to
where
we
can
also
partner
with
the
communities
to
have
more
clinics
for
children
to
get
into
the
sport
to
create
more
Dynamic
offerings
for
sport
for
children,
because
that
ball
fields
are
great,
but
they
are
ball
fields,
and
you
know
there's
other
things.
AD
There
disc
golf
gets
kids
outside
and
it's
also
a
great
way
for
kids
to
exercise
the
average
disc
golf
round.
You
walk
about
five
miles,
so
it's
excellent
for
heart
health
and
it's
really
good
for
just
general
activity,
it's
good
for
all
ages
and
if
the
county
can
promote
and
provision
funding
for
it,
it
will
mean
that
there
will
be
access
that
will
be
affordable
and
more
or
less
free
for
people
to
utilize
anytime.
AD
AD
AE
Executive
good
evening,
my
name
is
Pat
Keller
I'm,
president
of
the
Perry
Hall
Improvement
Association
and
I'd
like
to
do
something
that
we
probably
don't
do
enough
for
you,
and
that
is
to
thank
you
for
some
of
the
projects
that
you've
done
in
the
Perry
Hall
area,
specifically
funding
for
the
traffic
circle
at
Honeygo,
Boulevard
and
cross.
Thank
you
very
much.
The
new
Rosedale
Elementary
School.
Thank
you
very
much.
The
new
Elementary
School
desperately
needed.
Thank
you
very
much,
23
acrest
Park.
AE
Thank
you
very
much
and
also
thank
you
for
your
continued
support
of
the
Veterans
Memorial
project,
we're
working
on
and
hopefully
the
the
White
Marsh
Mall
task
force
as
it
as
as
it
works
through
its
system.
We
do
have
a
couple
projects
that
are
still
outstanding
one.
You
mentioned
the
Moors
Lane
overpass
and
that's
been
promised
every
year
for
the
last
30
I
believe,
but
it
sounds
like
you're
moving
pretty
well
with
that,
and
we
appreciate
that
and
keep
that
effort
moving.
AE
The
other
is
the
full
interchange
at
Route,
7
and
and
Route
43
White
Marsh,
Boulevard
I
realize
these
are
both
state
highways,
but
perhaps
we
could
give
them
a
push.
You
know
to
do
a
little
bit
more
to
get
that
project
underway
and
then
finally,
I'd
like
to
I'd
like
to
give
you
a
challenge
and
the
chat.
The
challenge
is
this:
we
desperately
need
a
review
of
the
development
and
planned
unit
development
regulations,
convenient
Task,
Force
review
the
regulations.
AE
Maybe
they
can
come
up
with
some
things
that
could
address
a
lot
of
the
issues
that
the
communities
are
currently
facing,
and
you
know
that's
just
the
challenge,
but
we
thank
you
very
much
for
all
the
work
you've
done
now.
Finally,
I
also
serve
on
the
board
of
neighbor
space
and
yes,
I
have
to
do
this.
We're
hoping
you
can
give
us
a
continued
funding
for
that,
so
we
can
stay
as
a
viable
organization.
AE
G
Thanks
Pat,
that
was
a
very
efficient
use
of
two
minutes.
There
I
I
will
just
say
on
on
the
reviews:
stay
tuned
for
the
master
plan,
stuff
I,
think
you'll
be
interested
in
what
is
included
in
the
master
plan
and
then
I
do
want
to
just
give
Paul
I
don't
know
if
director
d'andria
Walker
is
here
to
just
give
an
update
on
Morris,
Lane
and
door.
AF
Good
evening
deputy
director
Lauren
buckler
with
dpwt,
we
are
working
hard
on
Moore's
Lane
I
recognize
it's
taken
longer
than
most
people
would
have
wanted
it
to.
It
goes
over
some
CSX
tracks,
so
we
have
to
coordinate
really
closely
with
the
railroad
what's
holding
it
up
at
this
point
that
we've
passed,
the
hurdle
on
is
the
storm
water.
The
railroad
system
determined
that
no
rain
water
can
go
from
the
bridge
onto
the
train
tracks,
so
we
had
to
acquire
extra
property
to
drain
the
storm
water
onto
so
that's
what
we've
been
doing.
AF
E
AG
Speaking
of
steps,
my
name
is
Jake
eichenberg
and
I
am
another
local
disc.
Golf
Advocate
I
wanted
to
share
some
of
my
experiences
and
some
statistics
on
the
sport,
as
we
think
about
increasing
funding
and
partnering
with
the
local
community
of
disc
golf
players.
So
the
Disc
Golf
Community
worldwide
has
reached
over
1.2
million
players
who,
last
year
alone,
played
over
19
million
rounds
of
disc
golf
from
my
personal
experience.
I
covered
more
than
325
miles
last
year.
AG
Playing
the
sport
and
my
mother,
who
is
67,
plays
the
sport,
loves
it
and
has
lost
well
over
20
pounds
playing
the
sport
in
the
last
year,
the
as
stated
earlier
by
Pete
there's
one
course
in
the
county.
From
a
public
perspective,
there
are
two
fantastic
properties
that
have
the
opportunity
to
host
world
class
level
courses.
These
are
amazing,
green
spaces
that
adding
a
course
would
not
only
increase
public
usage
but
would
also
help
sustain
the
Green
Space
thinking
about
two
of
the
top
three
things
that
we're
showing
up
earlier
on
the
slido.
AG
We
can
do
those
simultaneously
while
leveraging
existing
dollars
within
the
county
budget
for
these
spaces
and
I.
Look
forward
to
seeing
what
these
properties
can
become
because
they
can,
as
Ben
stated,
bring
forward
young
men
and
women
in
the
area
to
success.
We've
seen
multiple
local
businesses
start
up
within
the
community
in
the
county
in
the
last
couple
of
years,
and
we've
seen
a
local
18
year,
old
Phenom
recently
gets
signed
by
a
top
five
worldwide
manufacturer
for
sponsorship
for
the
upcoming
season.
Thank
you.
AG
F
There
we
go
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
this
evening.
My
name

I'm,
a
Baltimore
County
resident
here
in
District,
Five
and
I'm,
representing
bullies,
quarters
Improvement
Association
this
evening.
We
are
here
to
continue
to
advocate
for
some
targeted
funding
for
transportation
improvements
within
our
community.
Our
proposal
covers
a
broad
spectrum
of
goals,
including
road
widening
traffic,
calming
sidewall
connectivity,
storm
water
management
and
pedestrian
safety
within
the
Middle
River
early
area,
and
specifically
with
our
community.
F
So
we've
been
working
over
the
past
few
months,
getting
some
feedback
from
the
planning
department,
dpwt
and
others.
I
really
want
to
thank
I
know
director
Lafferty
was
here,
I,
don't
know
if
director
Russell
is
here
and
some
others
their
staff
for
helping
keep
the
lines
of
communication
open
with
us
Emery's
here
as
well.
F
The
support
he's
provided
for
us
up
until
this
point,
as
well
as
County
Executive
oshevsky
and
his
staff,
specifically
Patrick
Zach,
and
our
director
Rimmel,
for
their
support
with
the
office
of
community
engagement.
Just
again
helping
us
navigate
this
process
and
and
get
these
goals
moved
forward
as
quickly
as
possible.
So
thank
you.
AH
Good
evening
my
name
is
Douglas
Scarborough
I'm,
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
the
residents
of
the
2500
block
of
Harwood
Road
in
Parkville.
This
block
has
historically
had
a
significant
border
drainage
problem,
which
recently,
with
some
increased
development
and
widening
of
Joppa
Road,
has
become
a
very
hazardous.
At
times
the
county
has
come
out
several
times
and
looked
at
it.
Their
latest
repair
on
August
of
22
actually
made
the
problem
worse.
AH
The
road
today
was
a
prime
example
in
the
Rain.
The
water
is
Flowing
out
of
the
gutter
pans
on
the
North
side
and
all
the
way
across
the
road
to
the
South
Side.
The
road
was
never
sloped
properly
when
it
was
built
which
would
have
been
I
believe
in
the
mid
to
late
50s
over
Christmas
doing
the
extreme
cold.
The
ice
from
the
two
sides
almost
met
in
the
middle
of
the
street.
AH
AI
Good
evening

I
serve
as
the
vice
president
for

and
government
relations
with
the
White
Marsh
Fire
Company.
It's
my
pleasure
to
address
you
this
evening
on
behalf
of
President
Palmer
regarding
our
priorities
and
recommendations
to
your
Administration.
AI
AI
This
was
in
the
transportation
priorities
in
the
last
four
years
and
we'd
like
to
see
this
brought
to
fruition
as
quickly
as
possible.
It's
our
understanding
also
that
County
government
is
tentatively
proposing
a
two
percent
increase
to
in
funding
to
support
the
volunteer
fire
and
EMS
service.
With
all
due
respect,
sir,
a
two
percent
increase
is
inadequate
to
meet
the
need,
growing
demands
and
needs
and
expenses
incurred
by
the
county
volunteers.
AI
Finally,
White
Marsh,
as
well
as
a
number
of
other
companies,
support
the
need
for
increased
County
Fire
Department
instructors
to
support
the
ongoing
training
requirements
for
volunteers
in
the
county.
Training
is
not
a
one
and
done
Venture
volunteers
and
career
personnel
must
continually
train
in
order
to
better
respond
to
mitigate
the
Myriad
of
Hazards.
We
face
on
a
daily
basis
in
closing
White
Marsh.
Thanks
you
for
your
support

in
many
ways
for
both
of
us.
I
only
have
statistics
and
and
information
for
boley's
quarters,
so
those
quarters
has
a
highly
Dependable
response
rate.
We've
never
once
required
an
immediate
backup
of
dispatch
from
a
neighboring
station
due
to
poor
performance.

We
cover
11
square
miles
of
land,
90
square
miles
of
the
Upper
Chesapeake
Bay,
with
our
Marine
Division,
and
we
do
that
with
47
First,
Responders
and
59
support
services
at
auxiliary
members.
Our
current
station
is
in
a
100
Year
floodplain.
We
have
three
buildings
varying
in
age,
the
oldest
being
77

over
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
needed
in
repairs
or
upgrades
to
either
stay
relevant
or
become
NFPA
compliant
with
today's
standards,
and
this
does
not
include
major
structural
flood
considerations.
AK
We
are
no
longer
centralized
in
the
high
demands
in
the
growing
areas
of
our
community.
Essentially,
we
put
a
series
of
Band-Aids
year
after
year
on
our
structures
so
to
be
proactive.
The
police
corporate
volunteer
fire
department
has
acquired
just
under
12
acres
of
land
at
the
corner
of
Carroll
Island
and
Bullies
quarters
roads.
AK
This
is
a
prime
location
to
serve
the
existing
primary
territory.
It
will
decrease
the
response
times
into
Chase
Middle
River
Essex
at
White
Marsh,
when
they
request,
support
and
it'll,
be
the
primary
company
to
propose
developments
such
as
LaFarge
and
CP
crane.
Our
unique
challenges
lie
in
us
being
in
a
critical
Bay
Area
of
LDA.

The

formally
requesting
up

to
bring
our
new

to
shovel
ready?
We

be
the

to
reach

It's

The

diagnose

the

the

Good
evening,
councilman
marks
and
kind
of
executive
I
Echo
what
VP
Thomas
from
White,
Marsh
and
chief
Stallings
have
to
say
about
their
companies
as
well.
Our
first
new
area
is
not
as
big
as
some
others,
so
we
struggle
to
get
some
of
our
funding
summer.
Funding
has
been
a
struggle.
The
past
few
years
we
have
covid
supply
chain
issues
and
inflation
that
drive
up
costs
on
us.
AM
County
funding
has
not
increased
in
in
subsidies
and
operating
grants
in
a
while
that
hurts
us
with
the
same
dollars
as
five
ten
years
ago
is
now
costs.
Keep
our
apparatus
on
a
street
alone
is
increasing.
We
have
eight
thousand
dollars
of
work
with
a
year
on
that
I
currently
have
a
bill
for
fourteen
thousand
dollars
just
to
put
brakes
all
the
way
around
to
one
of
my
units,
Not
Alone,
the
do
the
dots
or
the
preventive
maintenance
that's
required.
AM
Every
year,
fire
department
under
Chief
bun
does
a
fantastic
job
of
reallocating
funds
that
are
extra
at
the
end
of
the
year
for
companies
that
do
need
help
so
I
appreciate
Chief,
Rondo
and
that
we're
just
looking
for
the
county.
Looking
into
increasing
some
of
the
funding
for
the
volunteers.
G
Thank
you,
Chief
friend,
are
you
here
tonight,
I,
don't
know
if
you
want
to
add
anything
in
addition
to
looking
at
that
which
we're
happy
to
do
just
for
the
benefit
of
the
crowd.
We
were
proud
to
partner.
We
used
a
million
dollars
of
our
American
Rescue
funding
to
do
a
direct
Grant
to
our
volunteer
stations
based
on
their
low
set
points,
which
is
basically
the
amount
of
service
and
time
that's
been
put
through.
The
stations
worked
with
Chief
run
to
put
in,
as
I
mentioned,
the
second
set
of
turnout
gear.
G
AN
For
any
of
the
other
volunteers
that
are
here,
most
of
you,
I've
already
saw,
spoke
to
you
and
said.
Thank
you,
I
think
they
know
I
truly
appreciate
them.
They
work
very
hard
at
what
they
do
and
they
do
that
in
addition
to
their
full-time
jobs
every
day,
so
the
fire
department
works
very,
very
diligently
with
them
to
make
sure
that
we
do
everything
we
can
to
provide
them
the
resources
that
they
need.
However,
as
everyone
knows,
budgets
always
have
limitations,
and
we
work
very
close
with
our
wonderful
budget
director
as
well.
AN
Thank
you
and
the
county
executive
and
the
County
Council
as
well,
and
we're
very
thankful
for
all
the
support
that
they
give
us
and
we
have
to
work
within
the
Realms
of
what
taxes
provide
and
what
our
citizens
can
afford
as
well.
So
please
know
that
they
do
have
great
needs
and
they
do
provide
a
tremendous
service
to
the
citizens
and
your
communities
on
a
daily
basis
and
every
time
that
you
can
support
them.

Hello,
I'm
Alan,
Robertson
friend
I'm,
representing
the
bullies
quarters
Community,
Association
I'm,
also
a
member
of
the
gunpowder
Valley
Conservancy,
and
we
support
them,
and
we
also
throw
our
support
behind
the
bullies
quarters
Volunteer,
Fire
Department.
We
would
like
to
have
funding
for
the
museum
at
Martin's.
AP
The
only
reason
why
the
power
plant
was
there
in
the
first
place
is
it
was
built
when
the
Babe
before
the
bay
was
polluted
and
we
didn't
need
to
do
all
the
conservation
we
have
today
once
we
put
in
the
zoning
in
the
Earl,
something
like
that
would
never
have
happened,
but
it
was
allowed
to
continue
through
exception.
Their
argument
that
this
is
better
than
the
power
plant
is
true,
but
even
the
power
plant
or
what
they
are
recommending
should
not
be
on
this
property.
AP
This
is
one
of
the
most
sensitive
areas
in
Baltimore
County,
it's
much
easier
to
avoid
pollution
than
it
is
to
try
and
come
back
and
fix
it.
So,
let's
put
the
money
in
up
front
rather
than
come
back
in
10
years
and
say
Here's
how
the
pollution
is
coming
into
Seneca
Creek
and
saw
Peter
Creek,
and
how
do
we
try
to
fix
all
that
area?
What
we
also
want
to
look
at
is
the
building
exceptions,
the
exception
for
the
building,
there's
no
need
for
exceptions
anymore.
Let's
go
with
what
we
have
in
place.
AP
This
property
is,
should
be
purchased
and
added
to
the
current
I
can't
think
of
the
name
of
it
at
the
Nature
Center.
You
already
have
the
structure
to
manage
and
control
the
property.
You
don't
have
to
create
something
new,
so
it's
already
part
of
an
existing
larger
plan.
That's
going
to
be
helpful
to
the
community
so
between
that
and
the
property
for
Lockheed
Martin
I,
like
the
people
who
support
this.
The
police
stand
up
or
hold
up
their
signs
to
show
support
for
this.
Z
Z
We
are
in
need
of
additional
courts
in
Baltimore,
County,
indoor
and
outdoor.
We
would
like
something
with
restrooms
lighting
for
evening
play
and
permanent
needs.
Permanent
nuts
pickleball
is
one
of
those
sports
that
also
presents
a
lot
of
health
benefits
to
our
seniors
and
our
young
social
promotes
social
Gatherings
Bridges,
the
gaps
between
The
Young
and
the
old,
our
oldest
member.
That
I'm
aware
of
right
now
is
91..
The
school
systems
are
now
offering
pickleball
as
a
sport.
Z
So
what
we
would
like
to
encourage
Baltimore
County
to
do
is
develop
more
pickleball
courts,
the
cost
of
resurfing
surfacing
anywhere
from
3
600
to
5000
and
500
taping
on
a
new
net
330
dollars,
the
cost
of
a
basic
court
with
fencing
and
lighting
like
22
thousand
dollars.
So
this
will
be
greatly
benefit
beneficial
to
our
community
as
we
grow
with
those
those
people
that
are
here
that
represent
and
play
the
sport.
Please
stand
all
right.
Pickleball.
J

AQ
AQ
Well,
as
in
Baltimore
County
reason,
I
say
that
there
is
a
Commission
on
Aging
by
the
way
of
which
I
am
one
of
his
appointees
and
there's
a
representative
for
every
councilmanic
District,
which
gives
you
another
Avenue
of
expressing
your
needs
and
concerns
through
that
elected
official
I'm.
Also,
a
member
of
something
called
the
Maryland
senior
citizens
Hall
of
Fame
this
past
Tuesday
I,
was
appointed
to
their
executive
board.
Last
year,
I
won
the
top
award
for
volunteer
in
Maryland
as
a
senior
reason
I'm.
AQ
Bringing
that
up
is,
if
you're,
a
senior
in
this
room
and
you're,
probably
volunteering.
For
somebody
go
to
that
organization.
You
can
get
nomination
forms,
not
necessarily
for
yourself,
but
maybe
for
a
friend,
because,
as
I'm
being
on
that
board,
I'll
be
able
to
select
the
winner.
The
point
is
for
last
year,
Baltimore
County
was
very
well
represented.
AQ
The
other
thing
is
the
Baltimore
County
Department
of
Aging.
We
thanks
for
all
the
supports
you
gave
for
infrastructure
and,
of
course,
they're
growing.
As
you
know,
those
centers
and
so
more
support
is
going
to
be
needed
in
the
future.
The
other
thing
I
want
to
point
out
is
congratulations
again
for
creating
the
position
of
immigration.
AQ
Affairs
coordinator
she's
not
going
to
like
me
saying
this,
but
she
came
to
Seven
Oaks
and
did
a
great
presentation
on
immigration
here
in
Baltimore
County,
as
well
as
National
policy,
and
she
used
to
be
congratulated
for
that
effort.
Our
support
is
that
needs
to
spread,
but
I
think
she's
only
got
a
half
person
helping
her.
Is
it
we're
a
full
one,
full
okay
anyway,
so
Juliana
Valencia
bank
has
done
a
great
job
so
far
and
finally
one
more
thing:
you
use
the
slide
up
there.
That
said
steam.
AQ
G
I
actually
think
that
I
forget
to
mention
that
we
also
have
director
Riley.
Are
you
here,
I,
don't
give
you
enough
of
an
opportunity?
We
added
some
part-time.
We
added
some
like
staff
in
the
last
year's
budget
too,
because
because
of
the
growth
in
our
senior
centers,
so
if
you
would
just
touch
on
that
and
then
maybe
the
the
funding
for
our
gyms
across
the
county
that
there's
going
to
be
access
to
new
treadmills
and
other
stuff
for
our
seniors.
AS
We
added
added
a
staff
person
to
each
of
our
senior
centers,
so
our
larger
centers
now
have
an
additional
halftime
person
and
our
smaller
centers
have
an
additional
full-time
person.
We
have
fitness
centers
in
14
of
our
senior
centers
and
we've
just
up
we're
in
the
process
of
upgrading
the
equipment
in
all
of
those,
and
now
that
you
have
one
membership
in
a
fitness
center,
you
can
go
to
any
of
those
across
the
county.
E
The
the
other
thing
that
I
would
add
is
that,
with
25
percent
of
our
population
senior
citizens,
we've
tried
to
do
more
to
encourage
housing
to
accommodate
their
needs.
Pat
Keller
spoke
earlier.
We
worked
together
to
make
sure
that
the
first
foreign
development
is
100
senior
restricted.
We
advance
Brightview
and
we
need
more
of
that
type
of
housing
which
doesn't
overburden
our
schools.
So
that's
definitely
going
to
continue
to
be
a
priority.
For
me.

Hello,
my
name

Chris

representing

and
my
neighbors.
Thank
you
for
staying
up
past.
Your
bedtime
appreciate
that,
but
we've
got
a
drainage
issue.
Just
like
the
gentleman
was
speaking
of
a
few
minutes
ago.
We
do
have
ice
that
covers
the
street
when
it
actually
gets
cold
in
February,
but
it
happened.
Christmas
Eve!
That's
why
I
reached
out
I've
been
reaching
out
past
several
years,
working
with
Department
of
Public
Works
to
try
to
get
some
funding
there.
I
know,
curbs
and
gutters
are
quite
expensive.
AT
Six
figure
range,
but
maybe
there's
a
compromise
somewhere
in
the
middle
that'll,
actually
connect
drainage
to
the
drain
on
the
other
side
of
clausmeyer
right
behind
the
mechanic
shop,
which
might
be
a
good
option.
I
know
Nick
from
Public.
Works
was
looking
at
that,
but
it's
just
time
to
make
the
investment
with
the
busy
street
on
Claus
Meyer.
AT
With
that
red
light,
that's
really
been
picking
up
there
and
traffic
goes
further
back
to
my
knowledge,
there
has
not
been
an
accident
there
from
the
ice,
but
I
don't
want
to
be
talking
about
it
afterwards.
AT
So,
just
a
big
thanks
for
the
rapid
response
times
from
Mr
Mark's
your
office,
making
our
community
still
feel
still
still
feel
small
I
appreciate
that
I
know
it
is
crowded
and
there's
a
lot
of
us
here,
but
I
just
want
to
keep
our
neighborhood
safe.
Keep
our
families
safe
and
I,
appreciate
your
time
and
I
appreciate
being
part
of
a
community
where
this
many
people
are
involved.
So
I
appreciate
all
of
you.
Thank.
AU
Hello
good
evening,
my
name
is
Heather
Patty
and
I'm.
The
president
of
the
White
Marsh
cowington,
Community,
Association
and
first
of
all,
I
want
to
say
it
feels
great
to
be
represented
by
David
Marks
again.
He
is
always
been
very
receptive
to
our
needs
and
it's
great
to
be
represented
again.
So
a
few
things
I'm
going
to
condense,
10
minutes
into
two
minutes
and
do
my
best
want
to
draw
your
attention
to
the
inequity
and
access
to
health
care
between
the
eastern,
western
and
Northern
Central
parts
of
Baltimore
County.
AU
This
information
is
from
the
2020
census.
The
Central
and
Northern
Baltimore
County
has
served
mainly
by
Saint
Joe's
and
GBMC,
with
a
total
licensed
hospital
beds
of
481.
The
ratio
of
licensed
hospital
beds
for
Resident
is
one
hospital
bed
per
600
residents
in
eastern
Baltimore
County,
which
is
served
primarily
by
Franklin
Square
328
to
338
beds,
depending
on
the
source
which
gives
us
one
hospital
bed
per
891
to
865,
depending
on
the
source.
AU
Western
Baltimore
County
really
doesn't
have
a
hospital
in
the
county,
they're
served
primarily
by
City
hospitals,
Saint,
Agnes
or
Sinai,
so
we're
sending
273
000
residents
to
City
hospitals,
so
I
performed
a
similar
analysis
in
2015
using
2010
census
data,
and
we
went
in
eastern
County
from
One
hospital
bed
to
600
residents
to
now
we're
at
one
to
891..
So
it's
dangerous.
AU
It's
very
dangerous
and
I
would
like
to
respectively
request
that
we
look
at
Health
Care
access
for
Baltimore
County,
because
I'm
hearing
complaints
from
community
members
of
ER
wait
times
of
8
to
10
to
12
hours
or
more
and
I
would
like
you
to.
You
know:
I
didn't
even
get
to
everything,
but
I
would
like
you
to
consider
that
with
a
growing
development
that
we
need
to
look
at
infrastructure
for
hospitals
and
also
a
new
medic
unit
at
White,
Marsh
volunteer
fire
department.
I'll
be
really
brief.
AU
There
are
other
vehicles
available
to
help
with
patient
care,
but
there's
only
one
vehicle
to
transport
to
the
hospital.
White
Marsh
did
request
another
medic
unit,
but
this
request
was
denied
and
some
residents
have
reported
waiting
up
to
40
minutes
for
ambulance
transport,
so
strokes
and
heart
attacks
Iowa's
a
critical
care
nurse
for
over
20
years.
AU
It's
very
important
with
strokes
and
heart
attacks
that
they
get
to
the
hospital
for
strokes
are
usually
clots.
Tpa
can
break
a
clot
up,
but
there's
a
small
window
of
time,
and
if
they
don't
get
to
the
hospital
they
could
face
disability
or
death.
It's
very
important.
So
if,
if
White
Marsh
medic
unit
is
covering
in
Parkville
or
Woodlawn
or
Essex
sparish
point
and
and
they
have
to
wait,
they
can't
take
the
patient
in
the
engine
or
the
the
truck
the
pickup
truck.
AU
You
know:
a
million
325
000
for
a
medic
unit
is
a
drop
in
the
bucket
compared
to
loss
of
life
or
a
lawsuit
for
loss
of
life
and
then
just
real
quick.
We
talked
about
code
enforcement
already,
I
won't
go
there.
Funding
for
stream
cleanups,
we
have
about
a
dumpster
worth
of
trash
in
White,
Marsh
run
and
I
was
told
by
the
county
that
they
don't
currently
have
a
program
to
clear
streams
of
trash,
and
the
community
is
expected
to
clean
that
up.
We
don't
know
where
it's
coming
from.
AU
AV
I'll
try
and
be
brief,
I'm
gonna
piggyback
a
little
bit
on
what
Alan
said.
He's
he's
from
Bully's
quarters
I'm
from
Seneca
Park.
My
name
is
Bonnie
josinski
vice
president
of
the
Seneca
Park
Improvement
Association,
and
a
lifelong
resident
of
Seneca
Park
I,
just
like
to
voice
our
support
to
earmark
open
space
funding
to
conserve
138.15,
Acres,
zoned,
rc5
and
20
in
the
Chesapeake
Bay
critical
area
also
designated
rural
Legacy
area.
This
site
is
formerly
known
as
the
CP
crane
site.
AV
Obviously,
I
feel
like
the
Administration,
has
an
opportunity
to
be
a
part
of
reversing
the
Damage
Done
by
a
dirty
coal-fired
power
plant
by
conserving
this
environmentally
sensitive
area
and
allowing
it
to
revert
back
to
Forest
and
wetlands
rather
than
burden
our
roads,
our
infrastructure
with
additional
development.
AV
There
have
been
substantial
conservation
efforts
made
in
our
community
in
the
last
10
years.
There's
a
forest
mitigation
bank
and
we're
a
legacy
land
that
borders
the
south
side
of
this
site,
a
non-title
mitigation
bank
across
the
street,
from
the
site
and
Rural
Legacy
land
on
the
north
side
of
the
site,
and
these
are
all
carrying
protective
covenants
and
easements,
and
it's
so
much
more
important
to
the
environment
when
these
hubs
are
connected
and
we
create
this
green
belt.
AV
AW
AW
One
thing
I've
learned
here
tonight
is
that
I
need
to
get
in
to
pickleball
and
disc
golf
I
just
want
to
thank
Johnny,
O
and
councilman
Mark
for
having
this
meeting
and
I'll
be
brief.
One
of
my
concerns
is
with
the
force.
Contrary,
scenarios
green
spaces
that
we
aren't
allowed
to
touch
when
trees
are
starting
to
lean
over
and
things
like
that,
and
they
need
to
be
cut
down.
AW
Those
costs
have
been
passed
over
to
the
HOA
to
handle
and
we
were
wondering
if
maybe
Department,
of
Public
Works
or
something
could
maybe
start
responding
to
those
and
cutting
those
trees
down.
We
know
we
got
to
leave
them.
There
can't
touch
it,
but
for
every
tree
that
needs
to
get
cut
down.
It's
costing
us
probably
like
five
six
hundred
dollars
and
when
you're
a
new
community
and
the
HOA
fees
are
already
high
and
that
just
adds
we
have
to
increase
fees
every
year.
The
second
issue
is
Campbell
Boulevard
and
bird
River
Road.
AW
It
was
just
open.
Thank
you
I'll
be
happy
when
the
other
side
opens
too,
but
there
has
been
accidents
there,
time
and
time
again,
there's
an
online
petition
that
has
been
started
to
maybe
do
better
stop
signs.
Even
some
stop
signs
that
flashlight
up
I
know
a
traffic
circle
might
be
out
of
the
mix
right
now,
because
it
costs
a
lot
of
money,
but
if
it's
anything
that
you
could
do
to
help
us
greatly
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
thanks.
H
G
I
think
deputy
director
buckler
is
the
person
to
connect
with
on
the
intersection
Lauren.
If
you
want
to
get
up
and
wave
again
and
then
I
know,
I
saw
Brady,
lockers
I,
don't
know
if
Dave
Likens
is
here,
Brady
I
think
you're
on
it.
I
don't
know
if
you
can
speak
to
like
if
our
or
or
or
Lauren,
about
sort
of
our
varying
divisions,
if
there
might
be
an
opportunity
to
partner,
especially
with
our
new
forestry
stuff,
so.
AX
Good
evening
everybody,
my
name
is
Brady
Locker
I'm,
the
deputy
director
Environmental
Protection
sustainability,
but
for
Forest
conservation
areas
where
we
have
easements
we're
trying
to
protect
the
forest,
even
at
downed
tree
actually
provides
habitat
and
in
a
healthy
Forest,
but
we
don't
want
dangerous
trees
falling
on
property.
So
if
you
have
an
easement
with
the
tree,
that's
fallen
down.
AX
We
don't
want
anyone
getting
hurt,
contact
us,
we'll
work
with
you
and
we'll
work
on
getting
either
somebody
out
there
to
remove
the
tree
if
it's
a
danger
of
falling
on
an
adjacent
property
or
make
an
assessment
of
whether
it
needs
to
be
taken
down
inside
the
easement
as
well.
AW
G
Y
Good
evening
my
name
is
Jim
Hawk
I'm,
president
of
bullies,
quarters
Improvement
Association
tonight,
I'm
asking
the
county
to
allocate
four
million
dollars
towards
the
purchase
of
that
157,
Acres,
formerly
known
as
CP
crane.
The
property
is
located
on
the
Chesapeake
Bay
critical
areas,
and
on
top
of
that,
all
three
sides
of
it
are
zoned
rc20,
including
the
property
owned
by
Baltimore
County,
which
has
now
just
been
re-designed.
Y
Y
On
top
of
that,
what
you
have
to
look
at
is
the
power
lines
are
already
there
from
BGE
and
the
railroad
tracks,
which
will
remove
the
railroad
tracks,
and
we've
already
worked
with
the
owners
of
the
property
to
make
sure
that
can
happen
and
BGE,
and
that
will
give
your
Trails
your
bike
and
your
walking
hiking
trails,
which
is
very
important.
It's
going
to
require
4
million
from
the
county.
Y
It's
going
to
require
State
money
to
purchase
the
whole
property
and
federal
money
which
we're
also
working
with
the
state
and
David's
been
working
with
both
state
and
federal.
We
appreciate
what
David's
done
on
top
of
that.
This
is
the
opportunity
to
protect
the
property
here
and
looking
forward,
even
though
it's
zoned,
rc5
and
rc20,
and
if
you
look.
AO
Good
evening
my
name
is
Raymond
peel
I'm,
the
HOA
president
for
The
Preserves
at
windlass
run,
which
is
located
off
of
Campbell
Boulevard
between
Route
43
and
the
bird
River
Road
intersection
I
come
with
you
I
come
to
you
with
great
concern
as
the
HOA
president,
when
the
railway
opened
up
back
in
July
of
2020
I,
reached
out
to
our
previous
council
member
that
produced
negative
results.
Who
then
passed
me
off
to
somebody
from
Baltimore,
County
transportation
and,
in
short,
told
me,
the
road
was
built.
AO
The
major
roadway
was
built
and
intended
for
the
function
of
serving
commute
and
emergency
services
and
we're
not
allowed
to
put
any
traffic
calming
devices
there
call
the
police
they'll
help.
I
was
able
to
read
the
Baltimore
County
website
information
regarding
the
Baltimore
County
Department
of
Public
Works,
neighborhood
trafficking,
Management
program
and
it
caught
my
attention
and
I
quote.
AO
The
neighborhood
traffic
Management
program
for
residential
street
represents
the
community
of
Baltimore
County
to
promote
and
maintain
the
safety
and
livability
of
the
County's
residential
neighborhoods,
as
congestions
along
the
railway
network
has
grown
in
frequency,
magnitude
and
duration.
Resourceful
motorists
have
found
bypass
routes
through
local
residential
streets,
aggressive
driving
and
diminished
respect
for
other
motorists,
pedestrians,
traffic
control
devices
and
general
roads
of
general
rules
of
the
road
have
become
more
common.
AO
Increased
traffic
volumes
and
vehicular
speeds
have
negatively
impact
the
livability
of
many
residential
communities
on
July
20th
2020
a
62
year
old
grandmother
was
walking
along
a
Baltimore
County
roadway
with
her
five-year-old
granddaughter
at
6
30
in
the
morning
where
both
of
them
were
killed.
The
community
had
begged
and
pleaded
since
1985
for
35
years
to
do
something
about
that
roadway
and
it
wasn't
until
the
fatal
crash
took
place
that
Baltimore
County
and
saw
stop
signs
and
a
median
Island
since
1985
a
little
girl's
life
had
to
be
lost
in
order
for
Baltimore
County.
AO
To
do
something.
The
Preserves
is
a
very
active
Community,
but
no
one
feels
safe.
I
can
give
you
a
few
incidents.
Vehicles
are
flying
past
school
buses,
they're
losing
control
and
Wrecking
in
the
yards
of
the
road
of
the
houses
that
are
on
Campbell
Boulevard,
we've
had
trees
being
taken
out
and
at
night
time
it's
consistent,
drag
racing
up
and
down
up
and
down
Campbell
Mr
executive
I'm
coming
to
use
the
voice
of
the
community
as
an
active
law
enforcement
officer
and
someone
who
really
loves
the
active
Vibrant
Community
which
I
live
in.
AO
We
owe
it
to
the
residents
to
put
measures
in
place
and
we'll
keep
everyone
safe
while
enjoying
this
community
each
and
every
day.
I
am
pleading
for
this
innocent
I'm
pleading
for
your
assistance
in
county
and
putting
traffic
control
devices
along
Campbell
Boulevard
in
some
way,
and
maybe
doing
something
about
that
bird
River,
Road
and
Campbell
Boulevard.
That's
good
bird
River,
Road
intersection.
Thank
you.
So
much
I
appreciate
it.
Sir.
H
AR
Job
talking
about
pickleball
and
advocating
for
that
we've
got
a
few
people.
Talk
about
this
call
I'd
like
to
see
days.
Cove
have
a
a
disc
golf
course
around
an
indoor
pickleball
facility.
Thinking
of
the
questions
you
can't
place,
yeah
ready
to
go.
Thank
you
for
your
opportunity
to
come
and
advocate
for
the
county
development
expand
opportunities
for
citizens
to
participate
in
pickleball.
AR
My
name
is
Chad
Cass
really
I
have
a
lifelong
resident
in
Baltimore,
County,
I
retired,
from
Baltimore
County
government
working
professional
disability,
Department
of
Aging
I'm,
a
management
degree
of
recreation,
Paper
Walls
helped
me
maintain
a
degree
of
ability,
flexibility,
coordination
in
my
retirement
years,
even
when
playing
Partners,
29
degrees.
It
provides
me
with
the
opportunity
to
socialize
what
we
can
do
and
diverse
friends.
I
just
want
to
point
out
some
reasons
why
you
can
hear
me
I'm
sorry,
but
I'm
talking
about
it
reasons.
AR
The
county
should
expand
facilities,
one
a
contrary
to
what
pickleball
is
the
fastest
growing
support
account
in
the
country.
There's
a
major
increase
in
safe
spaces
to
play.
Given
increased
popularity
in
Baltimore
County
ball
can
be
a
lifelong,
healthy
support
activity
that
can
be
enjoyed
from
youth
through
senior
years.
Unlike
football
and
other
Youth
Sports.
Many
middle
schools
are
also
taking
that
off.
It
could
be
a
family,
an
intergenerational
activity
with
Charlotte.
Y
Y
AR
I
enjoy
playing
with
my
grandchildren
at
least
anyhow
we'll
share
you
to
people
with
disabilities
are
now
starting
to
participate
in
it.
Startup
and
equipment
is
relatively
inexpensive.
It's
easy
to
learn
fun
to
play.
Power
continues
to
be
challenging
to
improve
your
skills
because
that's
your
goal,
however,
there's
always
one
activity
to
be
played
and
I
guess
I,
like
my
time's
up
so
I,
get
to
cook
here
for
any
health
transport.
AY
Hi
I'm
Joe,
Milly,
Turner
I'm,
a
president
of
Middle
River
and
then
right
here
off
of
bird
River,
Road
I
also
suggest
you
get
Punch
Cards,
because
this
is
my
first
town
hall
so
come
on.
Do
I
get
credit
I've
come
to
you
every
time
at
all,
but
the
same
thing.
In
this
area
we
have
built
thousands
upon
thousands
of
houses
and
put
in
so
many
roadways.
AY
What
I
asked
for
every
time
is
open
space
parks
and
Fields.
We
have
gotten
none
of
others.
We
have
nodes
parks
where
we
can
just
walk
with
walking
trails.
We
have
not
added
any
ball
fields,
soccer
fields,
lacrosse
fields,
you
know
Cricket
Fields
with
nothing.
We
have
added
nothing
to
our
area,
so
we
asked
all
these
people
to
come
to
Middle,
River
and
I.
AY
Don't
know
what
we're
getting
them
and
it's
getting
very
frustrating,
because
a
lot
of
our
youth
in
our
area
are
going
over
to
Perry
Hall
White
Marsh
for
their
Sports,
and
you
know,
I
have
someone
from
there
tell
me
that
our
kids
are
making
it
much
more
difficult
on
them,
because
now
they
have
a
surplus
of
kids
and
they
have
to
accommodate
on
them.
So
I
do
ask
that
you
please
please
please
look
into
something
for
our
area
and
also
what
Nick
and
Ray
were
saying
about:
bird
River,
Road
and
Campbell
years.
AJ
AY
On
the
board
for
Burger
neighborhood
association,
at
one
of
our
meetings,
somebody
came
from
traffic
and
when
we
asked
them
for
a
circle,
they
told
us
it
was
too
expensive.
There
wasn't
enough
space
and
that
they
would
have
to
move
poles.
So
then
we
asked
him
for
a
light
and
they
said
no,
that
the
traffic
sign
would
be
sufficient
in.
It
is
not
sufficient.
We've
had
multiple
accidents
and
somebody
hit
a
boss
and
the
bar
flipped.
Over
not
long
ago,
I
had
called
the
county
that
they
put
me
put
person
to
person
to
person.
