GRIME REPORT!
The Latest in Clean and Green News

Dear Residents:

I recieved an e-mail from Mayor Rawlings-Blake today that outlines the
City's response to the recent snow storms, and requests our help in its
ongoing efforts to recover and get the City back to normal.  If you are
registered with the Mayor's Communications Office, you will have also
recieved it.  For those of you who are not, the Mayor's e-mail is
reproduced below.  Please circulate it through your own distribution lists=
.

Thanks,

David Hill

Executive Director

CVCBD

_______________

Dear David:
This week, Baltimore experienced an unprecedented snow storm.  It was the
worst two-day blizzard since 1922.  Shortly after that storm left the
region, we were hit by a second blizzard that dumped another 19 =BD inches
of snow on us.  We have never seen anything like this before.  Without a
doubt, this has been a difficult and inconvenient time for our citizens.
As I have said repeatedly this week, the city is not clear until your
street is clear.

On Wednesday at 11:28am, after a dire warning from the Weather Service
advising &quot;life-threatening&quot; conditions, I ordered PHASE 3 of the City snow
emergency plan.  Under Phase III, travel was banned on city streets except
for emergency vehicles that lasted until 5:00 a.m. Thursday morning.
Baltimore had not been in a Phase III emergency since the snowstorm of
1996.

Today, and in the coming days, we are faced with cleaning-up two
blizzards worth of snow and ice.  Hundreds of trees fell on streets, cars
and homes.  Streets are blocked with snow and abandoned cars.  But, despit=
e
all of the challenges presented by this historic snow emergency, this city
was safe.

During this crisis, the Baltimore Police and Fire Departments responded
to every single 911 call for service.  Lives have been saved.  Families an=
d
property have been protected.  Small businesses have been safe and secure.
On Wednesday, the Police Department responded to nearly 1,200 emergency
calls.  Emergency Medical Services (EMS) responded to 376 calls, and
Firefighters were deployed to two dwelling fires.  Facing heavy snow and=
 40
mph wind gusts, these brave men and women worked nonstop to save lives.
Police and firefighters were able to do their job because of the
outstanding work by our plow and salt truck drivers.  Since Friday,
employees from the Departments of Transportation, Public Works and
Recreation and Parks drove over 81,000 miles.  As of today, we have
deployed 28 private contractors with 350 pieces of equipment, including 70
bobcats, 35 front end loaders, 30 backhoes and 145 dump trucks.  All are
subject to FEMA rates and are supervised by city inspectors.  They have
bolstered our efforts in clearing our primary roads and gateways, and are
now working to clear snow from our secondary roads and side streets.

There are many ways for residents to help our plow truck drivers and
contractors as they remove snow from our streets.  Do not park along our
well marked snow emergency routes.  When you are clearing snow from the to=
p
of and around your vehicle, do not throw that snow in the street.

All of the city's efforts are being run out of the Transportation
Management Center.  Our Snow Team, which is made up of  representatives
from every city agency, as well as Baltimore Gas and Electric, and the
Maryland Transit Administration, collaborate to meet the needs of resident=
s
during and after the storm.  With this team working day and night, we have
found solutions to some of our greatest challenges:

* On Wednesday night, we provided nearly 1000 homeless shelter beds to
our city's most vulnerable;

* Working with our partners at Catholic Charities, 250 meals were served
at Our Daily Bread yesterday during blizzard conditions;
* The Commission on Aging and Retirement education has been working with
&quot;Meals ON Wheels&quot; to resume deliveries to more than 300 immobile citizens;
* The Health Department and Commission on Disabilities worked with
dialysis centers to arrange transportation for patients.  Staff has worked
around the clock to coordinate street clearing and transportation for more
than 600 patients since the storm began.

Ultimately, I am counting on the citizens of Baltimore to help in this
recovery.  We need to work together.  I am urging any able citizen with a
snow blower or shovel to help clear sidewalks, especially for the elderly
and people with disabilities.  Clear snow and ice from storm drains,
hydrants and HVAC vents outside your homes.
We can do this, but we must do it together.  To learn more about the
city's snow recovery efforts, visit [http://www.396snow.com/]
