The primary goal of this Summit is to share with you information on the purpose, structure and financing of a school linked health system. We hope that what you learn here today will enable you to work together to develop and design school linked health services that meet the needs ofyour children, your families, and your community. It is myvision that Maryland will have a comprehensive and coordinated service delivery system that offers all families the services and assistance they need to prevent or minimize health problems and to promote the development - physically, mentally, and emotionally - ofchildren, youth and families. This system should be determined locally, involve public and private partners, be family-focused, and recognize and respect diverse ethnic and cultural strengths and needs. I strongly believe that healthy families maintain healthy communities. I am joined by Ancelmo Lopes, Honorary Chairperson, in expressing sincere apprecia­ tion ofyour participation in today's Summit.

  • Executive Secretaries & Executive Directors
    History of MACo 5 Executive Secretaries & Executive Directors Robert Lovelace: June 1960 - November 1961 Bill Ratchford: November 1961 - October 1962 Thomas Kelly: October 1962 - January 1964 Bill Ratchford: January 1964 - November 1968 Joe Murnane: November 1968 - May 1978 Wallace “Wally” Hutton: October 1978 - July 1981 Althea “Tee” O'Connor: September 1981 - August 1985 Raquel Sanudo: June 1985 - June 1991 David Bliden: July 1991 - Present Since the first Executive Director was hired in 1960, the men and women who have held that position have come from varied career backgrounds. The responsibilities of the position have changed and duties have been expanded and diversified. Similarly, the MACo staff has grown, from the charter staff of Executive Secretary Lovelace and a stenographer, to the seven staff members who serve the organization today. Each Executive Director has not only redefined the position, but, along with his or her staff, has helped to shape and develop MACo itself. Robert Lovelace As discussed in the previous chapter, Robert Lovelace, a former city manager, began his duties with the Association upon the establishment of the Symons Hall office beginning June 1, 1960. Per the agreement with the University of Maryland, he joined their staff as a lecturer in American Government. As the first Executive Secretary, as it was then called, Lovelace set the pace and provided a basic structure for those that would come after him. As is the case today, in 1960 the SACCOM Board was made up of county officials for whom Association service was only one aspect of their responsibilities; Lovelace was the first person involved with the organization that could focus wholly on its development.

  • Chapter 7: Urban Design and Visual Resources
    Chapter 7: Urban Design and Visual Resources 7.1 Introduction This chapter assesses the Proposed Action’s potential effects on urban design and visual resources. Per the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual, the urban design and visual resources assessment is undertaken to determine whether and how a project or action may change the visual experience of a pedestrian, focusing on the components of the project or action that may have the potential to affect the arrangement, appearance, and functionality of the built and natural environment. According to the CEQR Technical Manual, urban design is defined as the totality of components—including streets, buildings, open spaces, wind, natural resources, and visual resources—that may affect a pedestrian’s experience of public space. A visual resource is defined as the connection from the public realm to significant natural or built features, including views of the waterfront, public parks, landmark structures or districts, otherwise distinct buildings or groups of buildings, and natural resources. As described in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the New York City Department of City Planning (DCP) is proposing zoning map and zoning text amendments that would collectively affect approximately 78 blocks in Greater East Midtown, in Manhattan Community Districts 5 and 6 (collectively, the “Proposed Action”). The Proposed Action is intended to reinforce the area’s standing as a one of the City’s premiere business districts, support the preservation of landmarks, and provide for above- and below-grade public realm improvements as contained in the Public Realm Improvement Concept Plan (the “Concept Plan”) described in Chapter 1, “Project Description.” Many aspects of urban design are controlled by zoning, and because the Proposed Action would entail changes to zoning and related development-control mechanisms, the Proposed Action therefore may have the potential to result in changes to urban design.
