AMOUNT OF MONEY AND SOURCE: No fiscal impact. MVR, General and Parking funds BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: The DOT currently manages all single space parking meters and the PABC manages all multi-space parking meters known as the EZ Park Meter Program. The DOT and the PABC believe that the metered parking program should be managed by a single entity. During the preparation of FY 12 budget, the DOT and PABC were in discussions for the transition of the Meter Shop from the DOT to the PABC and the budgetary move could not be completed during the FY 12 budget process. The DOT and the PABC believe this consolidation of parking meters will realize cost savings and increased parking meter revenues to the City. This involves moving Activity number six in service number 682, at a total value of $1,060,126.00 to the PABC. This also includes seven budgeted positions, six filled and one vacant as submitted. As the DOT cannot transfer the positions to the PABC, the DOT is requesting the Board approval to abolish these positions and to move the total value of personnel to contractual employees without changing the bottom line value. This will result in six lay-offs. Additionally, the DOT is requesting approval to restore three abolished positions and substitute two positions in its place and make line item adjustments for the difference in value as submitted.

Baltimore City youth will have a chance to strengthen their self confidence, develop leadership skills, and learn from positive role models.

The MOU also authorizes the transfer of up to $47,700.00 in training and technical assistance dollars from the stimulus-funded Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) to the Coalition to support this new position. The Coalition will match WAP dollars with $49,500.00 in Coalition funding for the position. The MOU authorizes the WAP to jointly hire the position with the Coalition and authorizes the WAP to fund the position through the end of the stimulus-funded weatherization assistance program on March 31, 2012 in accordance with the terms of this MOU. The Coalition will fund the position with their own grant funding after March 3l, 2012 and conclude no sooner than September 30, 2012.

Baltimore City is a national leader in the Green and Healthy Homes Initiative, a national movement to address housing needs in economically challenged communities more efficiently, cost- effectively, and holistically. On May 20, 2011, the Mayor signed the Green and Healthy Homes Initiative Compact for the City. The compact commits the City to provide comprehensive energy- efficiency, and health and safety upgrades in 450 homes over the next two years. These 450 units are completed through coordinating services across multiple City, non-profit, and private agencies to meet the multifaceted housing, health, and economic needs of the families being served.

BALTIMORE MONTESSORI PUBLIC $50,000.00 CHARTER SCHOOL (CITCP) The Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School proposes the rehabilitation of vacant school no. 32 for use as Greenmount West Community Center and Baltimore Montessori Public Charter Middle School Project at 1634 Guilford Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21202. The project will revitalize the Greenmount West neighborhood by addressing pressing human needs and make a major contribution to the revitalization and reinvestment of the neighborhood through the rehabilitation of the historic, vacant former school no. 32 for use as a Community Center on the ground floor and a public Montessori Middle School on the top two floors. Local residents have been seeking a location for a Community Center, which will help build the community, provide resources and housing assistance to those in the neighborhood and those looking to move into the neighborhood. It will provide a place where training programs or GED classes can be offered, which are greatly needed by residents to enable them to join the job market. In addition, there is little access to recreational space. The New Greenmount West Community Association and the Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School have negotiated 58 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 09/28/2011 DHCD ­ cont'd an exciting partnership to create a Community School with shared access to parts of the adjacent building, such as the auditorium for community performances, the gym for basketball leagues, or the cafeteria for community functions. The mission of the Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School is to build a diverse and respectful community of joyfully engaged learners by providing a holistic Montessori environment that supports individual fulfillment, compassion, self-discipline, life-long learning and a deep awareness of responsibility to contribute meaningfully to the world. Now in the third year of operation, the Baltimore Montessori's current pre-K and elementary program serves 270 students and has 800 children on the waiting list. 59 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 09/28/2011 Department of Housing and ­ Land Disposition and Community Development Acquisition Agreement ACTION REQUESTED OF B/E: The Board is requested to approve and authorize execution of the land disposition and acquisition agreement with Montego Bay Properties, LLC, Kona Properties, and Land Research Associates, LLC, (collectively the developer), for the exchange of fourteen properties between the developers and the City.

Account: 9910-9588-908087-900000-704044 BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION: The DHCD's Land Resources Division strategically acquires and manages vacant or abandoned properties, ultimately enabling these properties to be returned to productive use and improving Baltimore's neighborhoods. Mr. John Reiff, authorized agent for Montego Bay Properties, LLC, Kona Properties and Land Research Associates, LLC, received notice of the City's intent to acquire or demolish the properties owned by the developers. Because the corporations intended to rehab these properties, a "swap" of these properties was proposed for comparable City owned properties that are located in the Vacants to Value clusters in which the Developer has already invested. The Developer will deliver good and marketable title and as a condition of the exchange has agreed to rehab the properties it is receiving within 12 months from the date of settlement. With the approval of the Land Disposition and Acquisition Agreement, the City will receive clear and marketable title to the fourteen Developer properties, subject to any municipal liens, in exchange for fourteen comparable City properties. The liens total approximately $25,055.27. Approval of this exchange will allow the City to more expeditiously demolish the hazardous structures and take title to the additional properties that are needed for other redevelopment projects. The property exchange is less costly than acquiring the properties through tax sale foreclosure or eminent domain. This action will further the City's effort to eliminate blight and protect the health and safety of its citizens. 62 AGENDA BOARD OF ESTIMATES 09/28/2011 DHCD ­ cont'd STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND RATIONALE FOR TRANSFER OF PROPERTY BY MEANS OF COMPARABLE EXCHANGE: The rationale behind the exchange of properties was to ensure that properties owned by the Developer that fell into priority project areas could be acquired by the City in a manner less costly than tax sale foreclosure or condemnation. The properties that are being conveyed as a comparable exchange to the Developer will facilitate redevelopment in an area better suited and poised for rehabilitation.
