Baltimoreans have long known the way their city’s transit is run is unusual. But it wasn’t until a new report from a Washington, DC-based transportation think tank was released last month that it became clear just
how unique Baltimore’s lack of control over its transit system truly is.
According to the Eno Center for Transportation, out of the 50 largest transit agencies in the United States, only Baltimore’s transit is both governed and operated by a state agency without a board of directors in this case, the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA). Other cities with state-run transit agencies, like New York and Boston, have appointed boards with at least some power to make recommendations and sometimes even veto key decisions, and also do not rely entirely on their state governments for any non-federal funding.
NORTH EAST â Maryland State Police Tfc. Stephen Turner and Cpl. Scott Tassone have been recognized as North East Barrackâs 2019 Trooper of the Year and 2019 NCO (Non-Commissioned Officer) of the Year respectively.
The honors were announced later â and less ceremoniously â than they had been in years past due to precautions to safeguard against the spreading of the coronavirus, such as the avoidance of large gatherings, noted Lt. Jeffrey Kirschner, commander of the North East Barrack.
Kirschner presented Tassone and Turner certificates of recognition, along with distinctive Barrack NCO of the Year and Trooper of the Year uniform ribbons respectively during a low-key ceremony at the North East Barrack earlier this month. Tassone and Turner also received unique replica license plates â not for official use â to show the barrackâs appreciation for the work that they both did during 2019.
