Alternatives To The Port Covington Master Plan

July 1, 2016 – Segment 2

We continue our look at the proposed Port Covington project in Baltimore. The ACLU of Maryland and the Public Justice Center have joined forces to submit comments and recommendations on the proposed Port Covington Master Plan to the Baltimore City Department of Planning.

We talk with Monisha Cherayil, lead attorney with the Public Justice Center’s Education Stability Project, and Barbara A. Samuels, Managing Attorney for ACLU of Maryland’s Fair Housing Project and lead counsel on the ACLU-MD’s class action lawsuit to provide African American public housing residents in Baltimore City a choice in their housing locations in communities of opportunity.
