[Chat] RESCHEDULED - JHU Emergency Campus Siren/PA Test JHU Info Hub
Good Evening – There was a change in today’s test, and it was rescheduled for TOMORROW, Wednesday, September 12, at 1pm. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you, Melissa ALL – Just a reminder of this test that is scheduled for TODAY, Tuesday, September 11, at 1pm. Thank you, Melissa From: Melissa Thompson Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2012 11:39 AM Subject: FYI - JHU Emergency Campus Siren/PA Test JHU Info Hub Neighbors of the Homewood Campus: Please distribute this notice to others living and working in the neighborhoods proximate to the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus in Charles Village regarding (1) a test of the emergency alert system and (2) The Hub (a new web-based center with news and other info at JHU, including many resources for our neighbors). Homewood Campus Safety and Security will conduct a test of the campus siren/public address system and the Johns Hopkins Emergency Alert text messaging system at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, September 11, 2012. The text alerts are only available to Johns Hopkins affiliates. The test will be a full-scale simultaneous activation of both the siren/PA and emergency text system. The sirens will simultaneously sound the alert tone and then sequentially broadcast the voice message, announcing, This is a test of the Homewood campus emergency warning system. Those Johns Hopkins affiliates who have subscribed to the text message alert system will receive a brief message that reads, This is a test of the Homewood Emergency Alert text message system. There is NO EMERGENCY. Had there been an imminent threat additional information would follow. Shortly after the public address broadcast, an all-clear alert tone will sound, followed by the message saying, in part, This has been a test of the Homewood campus emergency warning system. Had there been an actual emergency, you would have been given specific instructions on what to do. Because the public address system incorporates a silent self-test feature that will exercise each module on a weekly basis, Campus Safety and Security will schedule live tests only three times a year. The main purpose of the exercise is to familiarize the Homewood community with the sound of the system. Except for these periodic tests, the system will be used only in the event of an incident or situation that presents a significant threat to the lives or safety of the campus community.

Introducing the Hub: A new way of looking at Johns Hopkins - Johns Hopkins does so much, in so many places, that it's hard to wrap your brain around it all. But with the arrival of the Hub, a new website, it just got a little easier.

They are increasing the trips over the next couple of days and they desperately need volunteers to help assemble sandwiches and distribute them. Volunteers will meet at the Salvation Army warehouse in Hampden over the course of this week, at least through Friday. Shifts will be from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM and 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM. Please call Salvation Army before arriving at the warehouse. To sign up for a shift, call Peggy Vick, Director of Volunteer Services with the Salvation Army, at 443.677.6468.

---BeginMessage--- Because we have some! CVCBD received several tree varieties from TreeBaltimore to plant in both yards and sidewalks. However it's heating up outside faster than we can find locations to plant them. If you are interested and a property owner or have permission to plant in a tree well, please reply to this email. These trees need to be planted ASAP and watered frequently in order to survive. Up to the challenge? Good. We have a handful each of Red Maple, Regal Oak, Eastern Redbud, and Ornamental Cherries. First come, first serve if you'd like a specific type of tree. Also, let me know if you need help with transportation and planting. We can coordinate to have the trees dropped off and shovels available. This is a great project to coordinate with your neighbors if you have several empty tree wells on your block. Let's increase Baltimore's tree canopy!

Re: [Chat] bocce ball --Thursdays at Wyman Park
I just checked out the Baltimore Bocce League link that Chad Abrams just supplied and I think I have just figured out that the Hampden Group lists Wyman Park as the location, for league play at 6:30 pm on Thursdays starting July 12. You can signup between now and June 30 as a member of a team, or as a free agent, or you can start a team. People currently registering. Groups are just forming and no teams are listed yet. Just individuals signing up. So even though the Groupon Link does not list this location, the 50% off Groupon offer still works for the Hampden Group which is demonstrated by the number of people who have registered since the Groupon came out in the last 2 days. What is our next move?

Re: [Chat] stolen handcapped tag
Christine: You should call 311 because it is no longer an emergency. If you had called immediately after discovering the crime, 911 would have been the proper choice. When you call 311 report what happened and request a police officer to come to your house to take a report of a larceny from auto. Then call Officer O'Donnell and if he is on duty he will take the call. Officer O'Donnell is a nice resource to have but you should always call 911 (or 311 in this case) before calling Officer O'Donnell.

Re: [Chat] tree removal recommendation
Kathleen: You did the right thing by calling 311 first and I hope you saved your complaint numbers. The Mayor's Office promises us that if we call 311 and get complaint numbers the Mayor's Office will review the 311 calls through the CitiStat System and will hold city agencies responsible for not handling the complaints in a timely manner. Before we can report the lack of response to the Mayor's Office we will need the location of the dead tree, the dates and times of the 311 calls, and the complaint numbers so that they can investigate the reason for the failed response. Please provide that information to me and the CVCA Sanitation/Beautification Committee will make the necessary inquiries and we will add your location to the committee's list of dead tree removal requests for followup. Once you tell me where the tree is located, we will copy our city councilperson for that District who can also assist us with any nonresponsiveness. Once the dead tree is removed, the same process must be followed to get the stump grinded and a new tree planted because they are all done on separate work lists and by separate supervisors. You should make 311 calls and keep complaint numbers and dates for each of the 3 steps. Once the 311 call is made, the complaint number recorded, and all info forwarded to me, we contact Forestry for followup on requests for removal of dead trees and for followup of new tree planting requests. The list for spring planting is closed but they are taking requests for fall planting now. We have already requested the planting of 3 new trees on the Fall list and there is room for more, if the treewells are ready for planting. We also work with a volunteer group known as the Charles Village Tree Stewards which seeks grant money to rent equipment to make new tree wells and to enlarge current tree wells to accommodate growing trees. This volunteer group, led by Peter Duvall, also works with Forestry Dept to assist with the planting of new trees. When they are able to do so, they pick up trees from the City and plant them where needed as a way to get more trees planted than the City can do on its own. So we share our list of new tree planting requests with the Tree Stewards so that we are always on the same page, or we try to be. The Tree Stewards are planning a tree well creation and enlargement day on Saturday, April 28 but they are not planning to plant any new trees until the Fall because of the dry conditions. Once the new tree is planted, the neighbors nearest must keep it watered We have seen many trees recently planted die because of neglect. If you would like our help, please provide me with the information requested. Sharon L.

From Waverly A Narrative of Bygone Years 1731-1960 by John Allen Sipes and Patricia Ann Riggle (Baltimore 1979) At least one small contingent of the army that wrest the colonies from George III was headquartered in Waverly. On the modern site of Saint John's Church a stone barracks was built to house soldiers of the Revolution. Again during the War of 1812 the barracks served as a rest center for weary troopers. And it was this same barracks that became Waverly's first schoolhouse as well as headquarters for the village magistrate. General Sam Smith, heroic defender of Baltimore during the War of 1812, chose Waverly as the site for his own lofty estate, Montebello. This architectural gem with its magnificently columned veranda stood at the east end of Thirty-Third Street until its destruction in 1907.

Re: [Chat] Another break-in
Greg: I have forwarded your message to Diana Mitchell, Community Safety Coordinator, at CVCBD, and to Deputy Major Worley of Northern District, for followup and discussion about enhanced patrols in that area. If an arrest is made, Deputy Major Worley will let us know. Deputy Major Worley stated at a recent meeting that year to date crime in charles village is up about 15% simply due to an increase in burglaries. Robberies and larceny from auto are both down. He stated that the crime stats are lower above 28th Street where JHU Security Patrols. He stated that he has worked on segway patrols in the past in Mt Vernon and finds them a great tool for that area and would be a great tool for Charles Village. The CVCBD proposes to raise the surtax in order to, among other things, provide an off-duty police patrol of targeted areas and is holding a public meeting to discuss the FY 2013 Budget plan on Tuesday, March 27, 6:30 – 8:00 pm at Lovely Lane Church, 22nd and Saint Paul St. There will be a presentation of the budget and program services recommended by the CVCBDMA Board that asks for a surtax rate increase from the current 12 cents per $100 of assessed property value to 12.5 cents per $100. This equates to an approx average tax increase to residential property homeowners of approximately $5/year. To view the CVCBD's current supplemental Programs/Services, please go to http://charlesvillage.org/bylaws.html and click on Baseline Agreement with the Community 2012. This coming fiscal year, the CVCBD is looking to provide even more services/programs. Please encourage your neighbors who may not have received this announcement to attend, listen, and voice their thoughts. The CVCBD would like a good turnout and wants to hear your thoughts. The CVCBD will be posting information with respect to the proposed plans on its website in the coming days. Please look for a preview of the meeting materials at: www.charlesvillage.org You may also provide your comments and input regardless of whether or not you can attend the CVCBD Public Hearing/Meeting.

The CVCBD Board has not made a decision, but is proposing a plan/recommendation to the Community. Your opinion at this hearing/public meeting will be heard and matter when the CVCBD Board recommends a surtax rate to the City for the coming fiscal year effective July 1, 2013.

They broke in through the basement (like most of the other ones that occurred on the 2600 block of Guilford) and stole a laptop, children's clothes and attempted to steal the flat screen TV but was unable to carry it (thankfully). She has an alarm but they got away before police arrived. And, no, her windows were not open or any of the other excuses the Northern Police District likes to give.

Re: [Chat] Fwd: Fwd: Another break-in
Greg: Safety is just as important as sanitation to me, personally, so I agree with your concerns. As a result, I attend safety meetings, keep in contact with the Safety Program of the CVCBD, and the Northern District Police, and patrol with the Neighborhood Walkers whenever I can. If those who care about Safety show up at meetings and at events, the CVCBD Board will see that it is not only me that pushes for more safety programs and more will change more quickly. Residents are part of the Crime Prevention equation. In order to be an effective partner in crime prevention, we must participate in crime prevention efforts daily and not just when an incident occurs. When CVCBD or the Northern District reminds us of ways we can contribute, we must not accept that information in a defensive manner, but in the spirit in which it is intended. The police want us to be well informed so that we can be more effective partners in crime prevention. If burglars keep breaking into houses through open windows and doors, as an example, the police will get the message that they need to keep reminding us and that means we are not getting the word out broadly enough. That is why we keep hearing it. The Northern District Police have been very responsive and are working closely with our efforts to prevent crime. If we all sign up for the CVCBD crime alerts and attend bimonthly CVCA general membership meetings, we will receive information about crime stats. Increased police patrols in targeted areas, and arrests that have been made. If you go online at www.charlesvillage.org, the CVCBD website, you will see the monthly crime watch report which shows which arrests the CVCBD is tracking through the courts and for which they are sending Community Impact Letters for sentencing. The Northern District attends the monthly CVCBD Safety Advisory Council meetings and provides stats and adjusts patrols accordingly. I communicate with the Major and Deputy Major at least twice a week, and lately more often, updating them on resident complaints and obtaining additional info that I can pass on to concerned residents. They tell me that they inform the officers on the beat daily where the problems areas are to target and how to improve response time to 911 calls. They report back to me if I ask them for response times on any given 911 call. I am waiting to hear back about the one related to the break-in in the 300 block of E. Lorraine on 3/19 at 3 p.m. I will share that info with you when I receive it. The CVCA Safety Committee has been looking for a volunteer to attend the Monthly Northern District Community Council which is held on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at the Northern District Headquarters but so far no one has volunteered to attend on behalf of the Safety Committee. Please consider volunteering for that role, or helping me find a concerned citizen who will do so. It is the same night as the CVCA Board meetings so I am unable to attend. The March meeting is tonight. Is anyone interested in helping out that way?

My comment relates to the fact that every meeting I go to, when crime comes up, it seems like the police and others are implying that somehow the victim is at fault. At our recent meeting at the CVCBD all I heard was that our block is too dark, people leave their windows open, etc. All valid points, but at some point, law enforcement and the CVCBD must be held accountable as well. I always hear about increased patrolling but never see it.

Re: [Chat] Fwd: Fwd: Another break-in
Karen: Thanks for this report. I would happily ask the Deputy Major for followup if you could give me the date, time and subject location for the 911 call, and the names of either the offending officers or the supervisor who showed up later. The Major and Deputy Major have told me on numerous occasions that they are committed to better training of officers. I would like to hold the offending officers and the supervising officer accountable for their statements but to do so I need the details. I would like to know what corrective action the offending police officers received. The more detail I have to confront them with, the more effective that confrontation will be. Otherwise, all I can do is report the story and ask the Major to address the problem generally at roll call. But it would be better if we could nail down the incident by date and time and location or names of offending officers to make sure that they received corrective instruction. Let me know if you can provide more detail for followup.

A few months back a couple of kids broke the backdoor window of my across the alley neighbor's house. I called the police before the kids got into the houseand their next door neighbor also called when he heard the glass break. It took a LONG time for the police to come - we actually flagged down a patrolling car (which had not heard from the dispatcher that there was a problem) BEFORE the police car that was dispatched showed up. And both officers did little. I doubt they even took reports..and told us that they couldn't do anything because the call had to come from the neighbor whose house was broken into. DUH!!! Later in the afternoon an officer of a much higher rank showed up to ask us about what happened. He was pretty ticked off at how the two responding officers had acted. But I don't know what happened with that. There's no feedback. Based on this experience, I wouldn't rely on police officers to show up in time to do anything.

Re: [Chat] Suspicious Person 3000 Block of Barclay
Judy: Here is Deputy Major Worley's response to our request for assistance in locating the suspicious person who was knocking on doors on 1/31, based upon the detailed description and location you provided: Sharon, I will have something put on the Special Attention list so that the officers are on the lookout for him. As soon as anyone sees anything like this they should immediately call 911. Unfortunately, someone like this is just looking to take advantage of someone and most of the time they are targeting the elderly, so please make sure everyone looks out for their neighbors. They also use this as a chance to knock on a door to see if anyone is home. If they don't get an answer they may go to the rear or break in the front. If someone answers they ask for someone who doesn't exist or make up a story. We haven't been experiencing any problems like this recently. However, if someone comes to your door soliciting anything ask them for ID. If they are legitimate they will have no problem showing you their ID. In most cases the ID is hanging around their neck to clearly identify them. Even if that is the case, ask to see it or just deny them any contact and say your aren't interested. The best advice I can give is that if something doesn't seem right, it usually isn't. Call us and let us investigate. Please let me know if you need anything else or you get any more information.

[Chat] Suspicious Person
Judy: It seems that the lack of response time to the 911 call was a result of a number of factors that need improvement. If we give the 911 Operator our location and phone number and say that we want to speak to the officer that will speed things up. The officer answered the call in 5 minutes but did not have an address or phone number for the caller. So that is one of the reasons why the officer did not find you or your neighbor. The other reason is because the officer did not call the dispatcher back and get the call back number from the 911 operator, which she could have done. I told him the Deputy Major that we would continue to advise residents to provide detailed information when making 911 calls and he promised to remind the patrol officers to do more to locate 911 callers. Here is what Deputy Major Worley just told me: Sharon: The call was dispatched and the officer gave it a code which indicated that she was unable to locate the victim or reporting person. It looks like the call came in from the cell phone tower at 1 University Parkway and was dispatched to 3000 Vineyard. The officer arrived in he area within 5 minutes of the call being dispatched and was unable to locate the caller or the suspicious person. It seems the problem was with the wording in the call. The text said that the caller was willing to speak to the officer but it did not give a location where the caller could be located. The officer could have done more by asking for a call back number to speak to the caller. It seems to be a breakdown in communication that we can fix easily. The caller has to tell the dispatcher they want to speak to the officer and if they are using a cell phone they will need to give a location where the officer can locate them. On our end, we will give the officers training at roll call about using call back numbers. I know this is something technical but with people wanting to remain anonymous and privacy laws the officer may err on the side of caution. I think as we correct these things and move on the lines of communication will improve. We need all the help we can get and I hope this incident doesn't discourage anyone from calling 911. It is a work in progress but the biggest step is we have people calling. We can always do better on our end and we will. It's encouraging that the people not only care enough to call but they also care enough to send an email to bring our attention to issues as they arise. We can fix them and get better with every call and every email. Communication is the key to success and we are definitely moving in the right direction. Thanks for your help, Deputy Major Worley ___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/
Re: [Chat] suspicious person
Judy: Suspicious Activity is cause for calling 911 so you did the right thing. If you described the activity you observed that should have been enough to get a squad car out to question the suspect. And it is certainly enough to put the police on the lookout for this individual. I get quicker results when I call 911 by using my Northern District Crime Watch number (for application see www.charlesvillage.net, www.charlesvillage.org, or ask me), and by using code words like, Suspicious person canvassing houses under false pretenses, etc. The activity you described is what burglars do to determine which houses have someone home and which do not. I am meeting with Deputy Major Worley at 1 PM today at the monthly CVCBD SAC meeting and can have a discussion with him about your experience. But he will ask me for details. Did the police arrive? Did they question the suspect? If not, can you give me a description of the suspect? What did the suspect do after he left your house? What block of which street did it occur on? Please provide some additional details, including your neighbor's name, address, phone number, and your address and phone number to provide to police who may want to speak to you before trying to locate and question the suspect.

Re: [Chat] Northern District Meeting
Judy: No, it is a special meeting set up just yesterday by CVCBD between the Northern District and the community associations within CVCBD boundaries, i.e., Abell, Charles Village, Harwood, and Old Goucher regarding the prostitution problem in various parts of the Greater Charles Village area. Problem areas identified by residents so far are: below 25th Street between Guilford and Howard Streets, Calvert and 27th Streets, and the 2500-2600 blocks of Maryland and Howard Streets. Complaints are old and ongoing below 25th Street and in 2011 areas north of 25th Street have seen an increase in activity which I fear may be a result of the increased enforcement efforts below 25th Street, i.e., moving the problem around instead of resolving it. At the October 19th Charles Village Safety Meeting, Major Tapp-Harper advised us that the Northern District had a plan for enhancing enforcement efforts to rid the area of prostitution which included sending written warning notices to the homes of the johns, and other examples of directing the enforcement toward the customers. The Major is holding this additional meeting because the complaints continue to come from residents but when she checks the 911 calls they are not as numerous as the complaints she is receiving in community meetings. Therefore, she is offering the residents this additional opportunity to provide the Northern District with more detailed information about the location and severity of the activity. That is the reasons residents are being asked to submit specific questions and/or reports of activity with details prior to the meeting. The Northern District Community Council meetings are held on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at the Northern District Office at 6 PM which is the same date as the CVCA Board Meetings so the CVCA has been looking for a volunteer to gather community concerns from the CVCA Safety Committee, to attend those meetings and report back to the CVCA Safety Committee each month. If anyone is interested in assisting the community with that, please let me know.

[Chat] Utility Work Notification
Bureau of Water and Wastewater UTILITY WORK NOTIFICATION The City of Baltimore’s Bureau of Water and Wastewater will be performing important utility work in your area. Date: Beginning Monday, November 28, 2011 Location: Various scattered locations in Baltimore City and Baltimore County Description of Work: Dear resident/property owner, In order to improve the efficiency and accuracy of our utility billing system, the Bureau of Water and Wastewater will be replacing your water meter. Approximately 40 years ago an internal meter was installed at your property. These meters are now obsolete and their internal location complicates obtaining an accurate read. This is part of a longer-range project to completely automate the entire metering system. Over the next several weeks you will see a new meter vault being installed in your sidewalk. This will be covered with a temporary asphalt and sand patch. Try not to walk on that to avoid tracking it in you house. This will be followed with an actual meter installation a week or two. This will involve a very brief (up to one hour) interruption to your water service. Our crews will knock on your door to alert you when this installation occurs. This will be done at no cost to you. There is a very slight chance that if you have deteriorated plumbing in your building that you may need to have your plumber do some internal upgrades. Finally, the existing meter inside your building will remain in place. It will not impact your water service. Contact Person: Paul Burgee, 410-396-3671 Since water service will be interrupted during the performance of this work, you may experience discolored or cloudy water. Once service is restored, it would be beneficial to open a tap in the basement of your property and let the water run until clear. If you have any questions about this project or if your water does not clear, please call the contacts listed above or call 311. While we endeavor to do everything we can to make operations run smoothly and with minimum disruptions for you and your neighbors, there are times when that will not be possible due to the nature of our work. We do want to hear from you, whether it is a suggestion on how we can improve our work, or to acknowledge a successful outcome. Thank you in advance for your patience. Yours in service, Paul Burgee Project Supervisor inline: image003.gif___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/

Christine and Brendan: Based upon the info provided below, the new owner does not plan a new use at least according to the permit application filed. Please contact me immediately if you see the property being used for something other than a grocery store and the CVCA Land Use Committee will consider filing a formal protest. Until then, I have to proceed on the facts as Katie Rose has given them to me. Thanks for keeping an eye out for developments in the neighborhood. Sharon Guida, Chair, CVCA Land Use Committee From: Katie-Rose Imbriano Northern District Planner - Comprehensive Planning Baltimore City Department of Planning 417 E. Fayette Street, 8th Floor Baltimore, MD 21202Phone: (410) 396-5937 kathleen.imbri...@baltimorecity.gov Date: 7/22/2011 4:15:37 PM Eastern Daylight Time Sharon, Thanks for contacting me. I just pulled the permits, and it looks like the permit approving a “ change of ownership” is currently under review. The new lessee is a “deli/grocery ” though since it is just outside the Charles/25th URP, I will not get to review it (I typically only approve URP or PUD permits in my district). The permit has been approved by the zoning office, and is awaiting building, fire and health department inspections. A little bit more on why zoning would have approved this… the property is currently (and should be in the next code) zoned residential, R-6; however, the non-conforming use as a grocery store pre-dates the 1971 zoning code and is thus “grandfathered” in. As long as the non-conforming use is not expanded or terminated, the use is allowed to continue, even if ownership changes, and does not require BMZA or “Board” approval. So to answer your original question about ‘protesting a change in use,’ technically, there is no evidence of a change in use per se (it’s allegedly going from a grocery store to a grocery store), and I have no evidence at this time of a proposed fried chicken establishment. My recommendation if you have serious concerns about this property being used for a purpose other than that stated in the permit application would be to contact the zoning office (410-396-4126) regarding this matter, and I suggest using the property address of 219 E. 27th Street (physical address) or 2648 Guilford Avenue (mailing address). The permit number is USE2011-03311. Let’s be in touch, too, if there are any new developments in this case.

Re: [Chat] private trash collection
John: The problem is prevalent. When it happened at 28th and Maryland at 4 a.m., I called Salem Reiner at JHU and he called the company to stop it. So the best thing to do is to locate the person or company paying the bill for dumpster pickup at that location and approach them with the request to contact the company to come after 7 am. There is a City ordinance prohibiting dumpster pickup in residential areas but I am not sure of the hours. The city ordinances and laws are online at www.baltimorecity.gov.

Dawna: The CVCA Traffic Calming Committee is following this and has notified Nate Evans that we want to be included in the meetings. The Committee will update the residents as soon as more is learned. Anyone wanting to join the Traffic Calming Committee should contact me.

See below from Nate Evans ( nate.ev...@baltimorecity.gov ), our Bicycle Planner in the Dept of Transportation. Hope all’s grand, -=G=- Good Afternoon Everyone, As the Guilford Avenue Bicycle Boulevard project nears final design, I wanted to let you know how this project would affect the street. No parking spaces were eliminated with this project and the overall nature of Guilford Ave will remain as it is - a quiet, residential street. The planned improvements will discourage through traffic and reduce traffic speed without altering access for local residents. The planned improvements include: 1. Sharrows added along the length of Guilford Avenue from University Pkwy to Mt. Royal Ave, where the project will meet Phase 2 of the Jones Falls Trail. 2. Mini circles will replace 4 way stops at 22nd St, 24th St and 32nd St. Community input played a vital role in helping DOT determine where the mini-circles were needed to improve safety and security. 3. A stop sign has been added to 20th St at Guilford Ave, just north of the school headquarters 4. 27th 31st St. intersections reduced from a 4 way to 2 way stop 5. Bike emergency vehicle friendly speed humps on the 2600 block and 2700 block of Guilford 6. Curb extensions on the southwest corner of North Ave Guilford to provide for better bike pedestrian protection 7. Widening the median crossing at North Ave from 6' to 12'. While two separate crossings for pedestrians and bicycles were preferred, the location of signal poles prevented this option. 8. Green sharrows on approaches to 33rd St crossing and green bike lanes on the 33rd St median crossing. 9. Wayfinding signs indicating destination, distance and direction 10. A white pavement marking to delineate the on-street parking from travel lanes Our consultants at Toole Design Group are putting together a map to help illustrate these improvements. I would like to meet after the New Year to give you a preview of the project. If you have any questions in the meantime, please let me know.

Re: [Chat] [Discussion] sun plus
Richard: Thanks for providing another perspective. We all benefit from the hearing it. I don't mind getting the Sun Plus and I have even benefited from reading them. When I have finished reading them I simply recycle them. No harm done. The fact that local businesses support the Sun Plus delivery will definitely inform my decision on whether to cancel the delivery. All: The bigger issue is when property owners or tenants do not pick them up and dispose of them but leave them on the street or on their porch for days. This problem we can solve only by opening up lines of communication with our neighbors and asking them not to litter and to maintain a clean exterior. We can advocate for our blocks and keep our blocks safer by getting to know as many owners and residents on our block as possible, making them feel like part of the neighborhood, informing them of neighborhood clean and safe standards and, if all else fails, by using the systems and processes that exist to change offensive behavior. If anyone would like to help with this effort by becoming a block leader on their block or by joining the CVCA Sanitation Committee where issues such as these are discussed and solutions proposed, please contact me. Sharon Guida, CVCA Sanitation Committee In a message dated 1/8/2011 7:05:42 PM Eastern Standard Time, gasp...@aol.com writes: What I am about to say may be against many opinions, but the SunPlus paper sustains local jobs in the community. It does not hurt the environment, because it is printed on re-cycled paper. It helps the local economy by featuring businesses and organizations in the Baltimore area--not businesses from other states or other countries like the Internet does. Think of it as junk mail if you will, but it helps the working class during these tough economic times.

I apologize for not responding sooner but I have been investigation the matter and am still awaiting a response to a few of your questions from a few Sanitation heads. Unfortunately the CVCBD Clean Team can not remove hazardous waste because it takes special training and special equipment to deal with the material. It also takes a special place to assign to dispose of the material. I am inquiring on ways and methods the residents can dispose of this material if the City not longer can deal with the material. This greatly affects the CVCBD for when there is no place to dispose of items and trash…these items end up in our alleys and hazardous material like old motor oil is dumped in the sewers and find its way into our waterways the bay!

[Chat] Lights and electric in Wyman Park Dell
FYI Councilwoman Clarke: Baltimore City Recreation and Parks is aware of the lights out in Wyman Park Dell. We have experienced an epidemic of theft of copper wire between the poles. The wire has been stolen in the Dell twice. Stolen In Patterson Park three times. Stolen from Violetville Park. A couple months ago stolen from Latrobe Park. We have a solution that seems to be theft proof. We have replaced the wire in Violetville and are almost finished in Patterson Park. We will move to the Dell next. It is expensive but we have identified capital funds to replace. DOT Street Lighting has been kind enough to replace the wire in the past. Now BCRP is responsible for replacing the wire. I hope to have the Dell finished by mid-January. Thank you for your patience.
