Jill Rosen, a reporter for the Baltimore Sun, had a great article in Friday's paper highlighting the contentious development issues taking place right now over in Federal Hill and a follow-up article in Saturday's paper, summarizing the hearing that took place all day on Friday. (The results of the hearing should be known within two weeks or as quickly as possible given the interest in the case.)

Federal Hill's issues are our issues. All of us work with the same Department of Planning, the same Planning Commissioners, and the same City Government. The City has a good problem on its hands, namely, how to effectively and competently manage growth. What happens in Federal Hill certainly won't stay in Federal Hill.
