The Maryland Stadium Authority held a public hearing on the future of Pimlico Race Track Tuesday night.

The testimony of Rosalind Griffin did not make it into the Baltimore Sun story, but I took note of it.

She testified on behalf of herself; her community, Mt. Washington; and two others, Cylburn and Levindale-Sunset.

Mt. Washington is north of the track; Cylburn and Levindale-Sunset are on the south side.

Their demographics differ, but their interests regarding Pimlico’s future are the same.

The survey results in all three neighborhoods were very similar as to the preferred uses of the site.

We are very supportive of horse racing, Ms. Griffin testified, but concerned about the traffic, litter, and noise that would be generated by the daily use of the site for non-racing purposes.

Those concerns can be addressed.

It’s my job to make sure that they are.

It’s also my job to help expand the number of neighborhoods working together.
