Listening Sessions

 

Meetings to take place on Tuesday, October 27th at Hillcrest Heights

Upper Marlboro, MD - As the 2016 legislative session of the Maryland General
Assembly approaches, Prince George's County Executive Rushern L. Baker, III
is holding the first of two public meetings at Hillcrest Heights Community
Center on Tuesday evening, October 27th, beginning at 7:00 p.m.   Prior to
the listening sessions, representatives from County Government agencies will
be present to provide information beginning at 6:00 p.m.  The listening
sessions are designed to give residents an opportunity to share their ideas
on issues that impact their lives and our communities.

 

The information gathered during these sessions will be used to develop the
County's legislative priorities for the 436th session of the Maryland
General Assembly, which starts in January 2016.  These sessions will include
brief opening remarks by the County Executive, but the primary focus will be
to listen to comments from residents. Please click here
