Welcome to the Southeastern

Please visit the following link for useful information
on the H1N1 “Swine” flu virus:
This information is provided by the Baltimore City Health Department.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
"I am proud to announce that the SED will be the pilot district for a community alert system. The system will go online today, Friday, April 17. We will run this pilot for 30 days and evaluate its effectiveness at the end. If successful it is anticipated that we will continue its use. This program will allow subscriber's to receive alerts via cell phone text message or email as they wish. The information put out will include information as to major crime within a quarter mile of an incident. We will include information as to significant arrests, community meetings, missing persons, and any other idea that we can think of that would benefit the community. A citizen may become a subscriber by logging on to www.nixle.com and follow the sign up instructions. This is a free program, however, costs may be incurred by their cell phone company depending on how they set up their contract with the phone provider (e.g. Pay per text message, etc...). I would encourage EVERYONE to sign up asap. Please alert as many residents as possible. I am excited about this new program and can't wait to see how it works out. Thank you! "

The Drug-Free Communities Support Program (DFCSP) Grant Money Available!!
If your group is interested in applying for this funding opportunity, you MUST begin now to begin building your coalition to ensure you will meet the eligibility criteria below by the time of your application.. Also below is a tentative time line for the 2008 RFA
Coalition Eligibility Requirements
The Drug-Free Communities Support Program (DFCSP) supports community coalitions in their efforts to address and reduce substance abuse among youth. DFCSP grants are available to eligible coalitions in amounts of up to $100,000 for a 12-month period. To be eligible, a coalition must meet the following requirements:
- The coalition must be an organization eligible to apply for a grant or must make arrangements with an eligible organization that will apply for the grant on behalf of the coalition and serve as the fiscal agent for the grant. Nonprofit, charitable, or educational organizations (such as faith-based and community-based organizations) and/or units of local government are eligible to serve as a fiscal agent.
- The coalition must have the reduction of substance abuse among youth as a principal mission. This must be clearly stated in the coalition‚s formal mission statement.
- The coalition‚s goals and objectives must target multiple drugs and address the two major goals of the Drug-Free Communities Support Program.
- The coalition must demonstrate that its members have worked together on substance abuse prevention/reduction initiatives for a period of not less than 6 months before submitting its application. This must be demonstrated through the submission of two sets of meeting minutes. At least one set of minutes should reflect a meeting held six months prior to the Drug-Free Communities Support Program application due date.
- The coalition‚s meeting minutes must demonstrate that it has substantial involvement and participation from its membership, as well as from other volunteer community leaders. It must be clear that the coalition functions as a unique entity and is more than a group of agency and organization representatives or a board of directors of a direct service delivery organization.
- The coalition must have representation from the targeted community and include at least one member/representative from each of the following 12 sectors:
- Youth (meaning young persons themselves, not an adult representing youth).
- Parents.
- Business community.
- Media.
- Schools.
- Youth-serving organizations.
- Law enforcement agencies.
- Religious or fraternal organizations.
- Civic and volunteer groups.
- Healthcare professionals.
- State, local, and/or tribal governmental agencies with expertise in the field of substance abuse (including, if applicable, the state agency with primary authority for addressing substance abuse).
- Other organizations involved in reducing substance abuse.
A coalition member is defined as a representative of the community who participates in regularly scheduled coalition management and/or planning meetings and is an active participant and contributor to the coalition's activities, events, and strategic planning. A sponsor/supporter is not necessarily the same as an active coalition member. For the purposes of fulfilling the requirements of the Drug-Free Communities Support Program application requirements, an individual coalition member may not represent more than one of the above categories.
Coalitions are expected to bring communities together and give them the forum and focus necessary to identify and address local substance use problems. By bringing together local leaders to focus on local problems, we hope that coalitions will create lasting changes in the community environment.

Community Requests for Traffic Calming and Pedestrian-Friendliness Process
Effective August 1, 2007, a number of changes have been incorporated into the process.
The primary changes are as follows:
-
Measures in addition to speed humps will be considered Traffic islands, speed display devices, bump-outs, and other devices will be considered in addressing issues; DOT will work with the affected community to identify the most appropriate solution to the problems identified.
-
The scope of traffic studies will be broadened to consider additional factors In addition to speeds, other considerations will include traffic volumes, adjacent land uses, schools, existence of sidewalks, etc.
-
Requests must be submitted by Community Associations This ensures that concerns are shared by groups rather than individual.
As a result of the changes, we ask that you discuss your concerns with your Community Association. If the association shares your concerns they should send us a letter on their letter head outlining their concerns. If you would like to view the new policies and procedures in their entirety, please log onto: http://baltimorecity.gov/government/transportation/index.html and click on "How do I request Traffic Calming for my neighborhood?" under the Frequently Asked Questions section.
Once we have received a traffic calming request from your community association, we will be in contact with you or the designated community representative to begin the study process.
If you have any further questions, please contact me at 410.361.9296.

He is representing himself as an employee of the CDC asking to enter the house to perform a fire inspection. We have issued all CDC rental employees picture name badges for identification. If my maintenance staff observes this individual again we will contact 911."

The man is described as white, about 5'8", 170 lb, dark curly hair, round face, glasses, mid thirties. The police have been informed and will follow up.

Speech from this meeting. (doc)
Please forward your comments to:
Sen. Nathaniel McFadden
or Del.

more information will be provided when it comes in.
The
SE Distinct Police are asking for any information
that you have concerning the location of dirt bikes in our neighborhoods.
Information that is needed:
-
Address(s)
of where dirt bikes are seen either in a person's yard or parked outside home
or business.
-
If
you see them driven on a regular basis in various areas, please provide the approximate
time(s) and location (s).
-
Although,
the police continue to follow a policy not to pursue a person who is seen riding
on a dirt bike, it would help greatly if they know the location of where they
are seen so alternate methods can be applied. Dirt bikes can be confisgated because
they are illegal to drive in Baltimore City.
To be handle
this project, please forward me any information email
that you may have and I will pass it on to our Lieutenant in command of this incentive.
