WARD 3: "ANNAPOLIS IN MINIATURE"

COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND RESOURCES

IMG_0585_edited.jpg

In order to get a very good idea of what wide range of services that these SCMC organizations and agencies offer, please check out our monthly meeting on YouTube which was held on February 12, 2020—a very robust discussion with area organizations about the resources that they provide to our community:  https://youtu.be/UG-vc0PkfCw . And see a photo of Mrs. DeeDee Rivers, at GreenScape 2021 in Chambers Park (right).  Mrs. DeeDee is a retired nurse, and the SCMC representative from St. Anne’s Episcopal Church—the church that has “adopted” and worked tirelessly in the Clay Street community for over 20 years.

“ONE Caring ANNAPOLIS” (OCA) is a component of the SCMC. It was formed as a result of the tragic murder of Mr. Edward Seay in June 2019—nationally and professionally known widely as “Tre da Kid”.  OCA focuses on year-round spiritual enlightenment outdoors, as well as at area houses of worship.  See the SCMC’s “ONE Caring ANNAPOLIS” banner (above).

The Street Corner Ministries Coalition (SCMC) was co-founded in 2016 by Annapolis products: Retired AACPS Educator and Minister Sharon Mackell, former HACA Director Melvin Colbert, Annapolis Recreation and Parks Staffer Archie Trader, and your Alderwoman Rhonda Pindell Charles. This organization consists of approximately 35 area groups and agencies. The purpose is to assist, “adopt”, our communities that need extra support. Twelve communities have been adopted in the City. For example, the Annapolis Gardens community was adopted approximately 3 years ago by St. Philip’s Episcopal Church in Annapolis. Father Randy Callender, and members Mrs. Karen Neale and Mrs. Barbara Arthur, attend community meetings, assist with community and holiday events, and are available for spiritual and community guidance.

DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

When Ward 3 decides to meet with a developer or owner or representative in anticipation of developing a significant parcel of property, over the past 7 years, we have developed and followed a certain protocol that works for our needs. As you can readily see, we have been very organized and strategic in our efforts to follow the 2009 Comprehensive Plan, “Preserve and Enhance Community Character”, which is always listed first as the “main idea” in the document; and “Chapter 3 – Land Use & Economic Development”, which is always listed first as the Chapter in the document.  And as is evidenced by the following developments, Ward 3 has consistently followed both of these firsts.  As such, we created the document:  “City of Annapolis, Ward 3, Template/Protocol".
