From the Desk of Former Mayor Malinda Miles

It has been two years since I decided to remove myself from the political scene in Mount Rainier, MD, Prince George's County, and the State of Maryland. Holding the lofty position of Mayor was such a great honor, but as the years flew by, I realized that it was time to do something else -- get a life.! I did, and still continue to provide resources to the residents through The Front Porch Ministries (TFPM). Real people pass through The Front Porch Ministries weekly. LIFE is good.

MRBA Throws a Hit Holiday Party and Business Meeting

Last night was the Mount Rainier Business Association (MRBA) meeting. It was one of the best attended in years. Kudos and thank yous to the leadership of MRBA, and to the most awesome municipal employees in America, Mount Rainier, Maryland’s employees. The affair was festive, fun, and very promising for things to come. The food was absolutely spectacular. It was open to the public, and if you missed it, YOU MISSED A TREAT!

The affair was attended Mayor Petrella Robinson and one of her Council persons, Senator Victor Ramirez,, developers, and other distinguished guests along with Councilmember Jesse Christopherson, Delegate-elect Jimmy Tarlau, and, of course, yours truly! Got a business in Mount Rainier? Then MRBA is looking for you. Check them out on http://www.mountrainierbusiness.com/ If you have a business, I think you will be glad that you did.

As a long-time resident of Mount Rainier and a homeowner, it is important to me that municipal government be inclusive of all of its residents. It is equally important that information be communicated through all possible channel so that residents can get involved. It is also important for residents to volunteer and serve on committees, commissions, boards and task forces. I truly believe that municipal government is the government closes to the people, and as such should be easily accessible. This BLOG is another effort to reach out to the residents of Mount Rainier.
