Aside from decisions on whether to support four bills submitted in the Maryland General Assembly, which will be reported separately, the city council had a relatively short list of action items on its February 12 meeting agenda with a number of them to be carried over to the next regular meeting on February 26. There were no presentations at the meeting, nor were there any requests or petitions from residents.
Items acted upon included approval to purchase a new street sweeper for the Four Cities Coalition, a review of a report from the Forest Preserve Advisory Board on potential impact to the Preserve by the proposed superconducting maglev train, writing a letter to be sent to County Councilmember Todd Turner regarding funding for a greatly needed new Greenbelt Connection bus, and reclassification of a position in the Greenbelt CARES program.
