This initiative allocates $50 million annually to various public and nonprofit organizations, with a long-term goal of rehabilitating or demolishing nearly 13,000 vacant structures over 15 years.

  • Baltimore Home Salvage - Free Materials for Community
    2025/06/13
    This source, an article from the Good News Network, reports on a unique community initiative in Baltimore. Amtrak, while demolishing 100-year-old townhomes for a new tunnel, contracted a salvage company to recover historic building materials and functional appliances. These salvaged items, ranging from marble steps to water heaters and refrigerators, are being offered free to residents of specific local neighborhoods, with others able to purchase items. The project highlights environmental responsibility and community support, ensuring that valuable resources from demolished homes are repurposed rather than discarded.

  • Baltimore Opioid Recovery Funding Request
    2025/06/12
    This text describes Baltimore City's ambitious legal effort to secure $5.2 billion through an abatement plan to address the long-term impact of the opioid crisis, focusing on future recovery and prevention rather than solely on past damages. The city is pursuing this funding in a second phase of litigation after securing a previous judgment against drug distributors. This strategy, which outlines funding for various services like treatment, housing, and support for affected families, could set a precedent for other local governments seeking resources for ongoing public health issues. The approach is highlighted as potentially becoming a national model for holding companies accountable for widespread community harm.
