There will be a community meeting on Monday, May 21, at 7 pm at Digital Harbor High School.
At the meeting, city officials and a technical consultant will review plans for the environmental improvement of the Race Street facility site. They will also review the initial plans for Swann Park.
The meeting will not include new information on the health risks of the park. The evaluation from the federal agency is expected in early June.
On April 19, 2007, on the recommendation of the Baltimore City Health Department and the Maryland Department of the Environment, the Baltimore City Recreation and Parks Department closed Swann Park in South Baltimore. Test results indicated elevated levels of arsenic in the soil at the park. Updates to this developing situation will be posted on this site.
