For the past six months more than 250 community stakeholders have been meeting to provide input on how 20 stations along the proposed Baltimore Red Line can be designed to best serve their communities. Station Area Advisory Committee (SAAC) members will share their findings with the public at open houses to be held in various locations in the Red Line corridor.

One of the Red Line Open Houses will take place in Baltimore County for the public to attend and give input:

Wednesday, May 11, 2011

5:30 â€" 8:30 p.m.

Woodlawn High School (Cafeteria)

1801 Woodlawn Drive

Baltimore, MD 21207

Stations: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Security Square Mall, Social Security Administration, I-70 Park-and-Ride Accessible by bus routes #15, 44, 57, 77

“This is the public’s opportunity to get one-on-one information and provide input on the proposed Red Line stations that will serve the communities of Windsor Mill, Woodlawn and Gwynn Oak. I encourage County residents to take advantage of the Open House on May 11,” said Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz.

The Station Area Advisory Committees are part of the Maryland Transit Administration’s (MTA) public involvement program for the Red Line and fulfill a commitment made in the Red Line Community Compact. The 17 SAACs are comprised of community stakeholders who advise the MTA on station location and design options, ways to make the area around the stations more accommodating for pedestrians, associated modifications to adjacent streets, and what kind of development should occur in the station area.

"Last week's beating of Chrissy Lee Polis in Rosedale once again reminds us of our responsibility as citizens to demand of ourselves and others the highest standards of decency and civility. Although this vicious attack was an isolated incident and in no way reflects upon the Rosedale or Greater Baltimore County communities, it does serve as a wake-up call that we all have a role to play in establishing the norms we expect in our County. It is the conversations around our dinner tables and the casual chatter among friends that develop patterns of behavior. Each and every one of us has a responsibility in deciding what kind of a society we expect and what kind of a society we will help create. I have every confidence that Police Chief Jim Johnson and State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger will address this matter in their customary professional! manner. But it is not only their responsibility to make us safe and secure. That responsibility is shared by each of us who call Baltimore County home."
