  • Merriweather Post Pavilion
    Citizen Advisory Panel on Merriweather Post Pavilion Final Report Introduction On August 12, 2004, County Executive Jim Robey signed Executive Order No. 2004-03 (attached as Appendix 1), which appointed 16 leaders of the business and arts communities in Howard County to serve on the Merriweather Citizens Advisory Panel (the Panel). He asked the Panel to advise him on whether Howard County (the County) should purchase Merriweather Post Pavilion from The Rouse Company (now General Growth Properties (GGP)), which had announced that Merriweather was for sale provided that the purchaser agrees to meet certain provisions. He asked the Panel to answer five questions: 1. Is there a public service purpose for Howard County to purchase Merriweather Post Pavilion? 2. If there is a public service purpose for the County to purchase Merriweather, what should be the primary purpose of the facility (e.g., a concert venue, an all-purpose arts facility, etc.), what other activities should be permitted and what organizations should have access? 3. Does Merriweather need to be renovated, and if so what type and scope of renovation would be necessary for it to most successfully and effectively achieve the determined primary purpose? 4. What type of management and control structure should be put into place for the operation of this facility? 5. What level of public oversight should exist? In addition, the County solicited proposals for consultant services for a “Feasibility study associated with the possible purchase and renovation of Merriweather Post Pavilion.” The County received five proposals it deemed to be acceptable. Following interviews with the firms that submitted those proposals, the County hired the team of Ziger/Snead LLP Architects, Webb Management Services, Inc.

And nowhere is the opportunity to be part of a community more appealing than in Howard County, Maryland. Ellicott City enjoys a rich and varied history, from its origin as the tiny trade center of "Ellicott's Mills" to the present seat of rapidly urbanizing Howard County. Three Quaker brothers, John, Andrew, and Joseph Ellicott, of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, chose this picturesque wilderness to establish a flour mill in 1772, four years before the Declaration of Independence was signed. The brothers helped revolutionize farming in Maryland by persuading farmers to plant wheat instead of tobacco and by introducing fertilizer to revitalize the depleted soil. In 1830, Ellicott's Mills became the first terminus of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad outside Baltimore. The old station, which stands today as a museum, has been designated a National Historic Landmark by the U.S.

  • Younger Brother in 5 Grade and a Sister in Kindergarten at Athotton Elementary
    September 24, 2019 Dear Members of the Board of Education, Thank you very much for allowing me to speak tonight. think it is very important that you hear a student's perspective on redistricting. My name is Bert Roberts IV and I live in Polygon 16, which is part of the Dickinson neighborhood in Kings Contrivance. I attend Hammond MS, and I have a younger brother in 5 grade and a sister in Kindergarten at Athotton elementary. My sister in kindergarten is up for being redistricted to Guilfbrd elementary from Atholton elementary. I am opposed to this for many reasons. My sister has been around the Atholton community her whole life. She is so comfortable going to Kindergarten because she has been around this place so many times for school activities like reading picnics, chess club, fun runs, and lunches with her brothers. It is really cool knowing that she might have the same teachers as my brother and I. It was also cool how exdted the teachers got, knowing they were going to get another Roberts kid, her Kindergarten teacher is the same teacher I had for first grade! If she has to start over at a new school next year, it will be a school she has never been around, and she will probably be really nervous. I am also asking that you please keep Polygons 13, 14, 15, which are also located in the Dickinson Community, going to Hammond Middle School instead of the currently proposed redistricting to Lake Elkhorn Middle School. All of the kids that I know from Atholton elementary school would be redistricted to another middle school, and some of them I wouldn't even see in high school.
