Reminder: York Road Partnership mtg. this Wed., Sept. 3, 7:15 pm with People's Counsel on utility bills

[York Road Partnership]

York Road Neighbors,

I hope you enjoyed this beautiful holiday weekend! As we jump into September, please join the York Road Partnership General Meeting this Wednesday, Sept. 3, 7:15-8:45 pm, at Govans Boundary United Methodist Church at 5210 York Road (enter from the back parking lot through the red door on the right as shown on street view here). You can also register for the Zoom option if you can't make it in person.

On the agenda:

1. Utility Bills: Brandi Nieland, Director of Consumer Assistance for the Maryland Office of People's Counsel will join us to talk about ways to save on our utility bills. The Office of People's Counsel is Maryland's State-chartered advocate for ratepayers when it comes to State-regulated monopolies, like BGE. They are a terrific resource, and we hope you'll join us and spread the word so people on our corridor can learn more.
2. York Road Collaborative: We have been discussing this evolving collaboration at YRP General Meetings, and last month YRP signed an MOU with the York Road Improvement District and Invest York Road. The MOU creates a new York Road Collaborative where all three organizations will coordinate our programs, along with some of our fundraising, staffing, and communication. The idea is to align our work for maximum impact and to bring more resources here to our corridor, including a professional organizer for York Road Partnership.
3. Updating our Agenda this Fall: We'll also be talking about conversation YRP will be convening this fall to learn more about what neighborhoods, other organizations, and people along the corridor care about and want to see happen moving forward. Come join us to share what you are passionate about and what you might be able to do with others who care about similar things.

Hope to see you Wednesday!

Dan Pontious
