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.

Check out the recorded forum on ACOZ -- you must watch the videos to get a better understanding of ACOZ and what the alphabets mean.

An Architectural Conservation Overlay Zone (ACOZ) is being proposed for Mount Rainier. The Mayor and Council need to act on this and wish to receive your input.

Hearings have been held. Work sessions have been held. This may be your last opportunity to give your input. I believe the draft has been worked down to a list of things that are acceptable, but wish to hear from you.

Check out this presentation, hear some of your neighbors concerns as well as some of their support for ACOZ. Email your concerns, support, etc. to mayormiles@gmail.com.

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.
