We are celebrating 100 days in office!!!

Wow! It’s hard to believe that  100  days  have already passed  since I took office.  In addition to sponsoring legislation that would better the city for our families, neighborhoods and businesses ,  my staff and I have been working diligently to make improvements in our district. Below is a snapshot of some of the things we have been doing to help local residents so far.  We are continuing to work every day to serve you and Baltimore City’s 5th (and best!) District.

Our first “Community Cabinet” meeting

  We invited Presidents and officers from all of the 5th district community associations. Everyone put their heads together to brainstorm on how to resolve similar problems and issues. Many met colleagues for the first time which helped us fulfill a campaign promise; to work on unifying the district and bringing communities together
As a team we have:
  • Attended 369 community meetings and events

  • Responded to 2681 service requests

  • Received over 3097 calls

  • Organized “Pothole Day”, filling 175 potholes based on submitted requests from constituents
  • After years of neglect and deterioration, we were able to rejuvenate the sidewalk on part of Northern Parkway so that pedestrians can safely walk.
  • Worked to correct infrastructure charges on water bills saving those effected $32 a month 

  • Resolved jury duty issues for students studying abroad, including one that was issued an arrest warrant for failure to appear

  • Rallied with Mt.Washington 
    Elementary /Middle School to fix-the-gap. 
  • Testified in Annapolis in support of state legislation that would limit liquor store hours in Howard Park until 9pm

  • Successfully lobbied for increase in police presence in the 5th district 

  • Effectively enabled the Cheswolde Community to complete their security camera program that had been tied up in the city for over 6 years  

  • Worked around the clock to make sure our district was adequately plowed
