Red Line, and this Community Advisory Council will supplement this feedback in
order to gather the greatest amount of public participation.
The Community Advisory Council will provide advice to the Maryland Transit
Administration on potential neighborhood impacts resulting from the Red Line;
review economic development opportunities associated with the Red Line; and
provide input to the Maryland Transit Administration as the Red Line project
advances through the planning, engineering, right-of-way acquisition, and
construction phases.
The Community Advisory Council includes 15 members appointed by the Governor.
They will represent a cross section of individuals who live, work, do business, or
otherwise have an interest in the Red Line corridor, and will provide an effective
forum for citizen input from project planning through implementation.
For the above stated reason, I have vetoed House Bill 1309.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
