Belair Road – TAP Panel Report
On November 16, 2011, Baltimore City and County along with the Urban Land Institute of Baltimore released “Revitalizing the Belair Road Corridor: A ULI Advisory Services Technical Assistance Panel Report.” With the support of Baltimore Mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and Baltimore County Executive, Kevin Kamenetz, the report focuses on developing a variety of strategies that aim to revitalize the Belair Road Corridor, which serves as a gateway that links both the City and County. The report includes such recommendations as façade improvements, streetscape enhancements, branding and marketing key nodes along the corridor, as well as ideas for strengthening the communities that live along the corridor.

Pleasant Hill Pumping Station
Baltimore County is investing $2.2 million this year to rehabilitate and expand the Pleasant Hill Water Pumping Station, located on East Pleasant Hill Road in Owings Mills. Work was started in October to improve the capacity and reliability of the plant. The design includes an on-site generator for emergencies. Construction should be finished by the end of 2012, say Public Works engineers, who add that it is now ten percent complete.
