An Urban Affairs hearing will
be held on HarborView's proposed amendment (details
below). THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO HAVE YOUR
VOICE HEARD ON THE HARBORVIEW AMENDMENT - WHETHER YOU
OPPOSE IT OR NOT!

The bill can be viewed online at: http://legistar.baltimorecitycouncil.com/detailreport/?key=3375

Details:
HarborView's proposed amendment to the 1986 Key
Highway Urban Renewal Plan will be heard by the Urban
Affairs Committee at 5:00 pm on Thursday June 7 at
City Hall in Council Chambers on the 2nd Floor. This
amendment has already passed/been pushed through the
Planning Commission.

The Amendment would modify the URO’s (Urban Renewal
Ordinance) original development area controls to allow
for construction of TWO additional tall towers on the
site. Absent this Amendment the developer could only
complete construction of ONE additional 17 story tower
(the Pinnacle- approx 170 feet tall).

HarborView now seeks to build TWO additional 290
feet-plus tall towers. One at the intersection of
Cross (on the waterside of Key Highway), and the other
on the Parking Lot adjacent to the southern entrance
by Anchor St (at the end of the Town House buildings -
the marina parking lot) to HarborView.

We encourage our neighbors to express their opinions
by email directly to the Chairman and the other
Committee Members (with copies to Council President
Rawlings-Blake and Councilman Reisinger).

RNA's official position is that this property is
"built out" or "maxed out" as far as additional
buildings and the amendment should NOT be approved. We
would also recommend that letter writers respectfully
request that Ms. Spector recuse herself from voting as
she lives in the Harborview Tower. Please be sure to
sign your email and give your address.

Full committee membership is as follows:

Agnes Welch -

Sharon Middleton -
smiddleton@baltimorecitycouncil.com

Nick D'Adamo -
ndadamo@baltimorecitycouncil.com

Kenneth Harris -

Rikki Spector -

A copy should be sent to:
Council President Rawlings-Blake

10th District Councilman Ed Reisinger

We desperately need your help and support.

The Department of Planning will be holding an Open House on Monday, May 14th from 5:30pm-8:00pm at the Museum of Industry (green building) for feedback on the Key Highway Waterfront Study. This is the study that will make recommendations on future development of the waterfront along Key Highway.

Many of you probably got a postcard mailing regarding the meeting. There will be brief presentations at 6:00pm and 7:00pm, but you are welcome to come and go as you please.

This will be one of the last opportunities to give your feedback DIRECTLY to the Dept of Planning regarding the Key Highway Waterfront Study. On May 31, the study is scheduled to be officially heard by the Baltimore City Planning Commission for adoption.

For more information, go to:
www.baltimorecity.gov/government/planning/keyhighway.html or call 410-396-PLAN

SPREAD the word - we want as many people as possible to come out to the open house.
