Weekly Letter #192- Getting Beat and Holly Beach Farm
I don’t generally share private conversations publicly, but I think Nathan Volke would be ok with you knowing that he texted the words, “Tough night,” to me on Monday night at 10:43.
He said that this bill needed that level of work so that people would understand what was in it. Similar points were made by other Council members from both political parties. They all said the bill was well-intentioned and needed to happen in the future. I agree with them.
I texted Pete the next morning and thanked him, “For the kind words before the hard vote.” He thanked me, and followed up with a call.

Today, Anne Arundel County officials lifted the 150-foot safety perimeter surrounding Empire Towers at 7310 Ritchie Highway following the completion of Phase 2 stabilization work and structural certification.
At this time, Empire Towers and the private parking garage remain closed to public access. The building owner and management company will continue to provide updates to impacted individuals.
For more information, visit the county's information and updates page at AACounty.Org/EmpireTowers.
Last Saturday, I joined the Southern Anne Arundel Chamber of Commerce, Anne Arundel County Department of @RecParks, and South County residents for the opening of the Deale Park.
ALT Two people hold a framed certificate while five colleagues stand behind under a park pavilion, all smiling and posing for a presentation photo.
Thank you to everyone who made this park possible, including Alison Woodfield with the Department of Recreation and Parks, and Julia Howes with the Southern Anne Arundel Chamber of Commerce.
Weekly Letter #191 - Deale Park, Farm Bureau, Hispanic Faith, Malcolm X, and Permit Efficiency
A lot happened this week, but I’ll try to do what I always asked of the horses I trained - cover the ground efficiently.
ALT County Executive Pittman's Weekly Letter #191 highlighting Deale Park, Farm Bureau, Hispanic faith, Malcolm X, and permit efficiency, featuring a quoted passage about a Malcolm X memorial ceremony and a link to read the full letter at AACounty.org/WeeklyLetter.
After I left, the Board voted to support passage next week of County Council Bill 61-26, the zoning code update that will finally remove the requirement that farmers get a certificate of use to farm on their land.
My hope is that their support for the bill will lead to a unanimous vote by our County Council.
