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.

NO RECYCLING PICK UP ON March 6, 2015!

Out Public Works Department has issued the following:

“Due to the weather conditions and possible refreeze tonight, recycle collection will be cancelled tomorrow. We will collect both recycle and yard waste on Monday.”

Please act accordingly.

Remember to clean your sidewalks within 24 HOURS after the last snow falls. DO NOT over exert. Seniors, call Public Works, if you are unable to shovel your sidewalks. They may not be able to help, but at least we will be aware of the condition of the sidewalks, and maybe get some of our younger residents to help out.

Streets are in a MESS to say the least. We are working hard to get emergency routes cleaned, and then move on to the rest of the streets in the City. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE OUT THERE, PLEASE PLEASE stay at home. If you are on a snow emergency route, PLEASE move your car(s).

REMEMBER to call 911 for emergencies.

Mayor Malinda Miles

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.
