Council President’s Statement on Mayor Young’s Veto of City Administrator Charter Amendment

BALTIMORE, MD (July 27, 2020) — Baltimore City Council President Brandon Scott released the following statement regarding the Mayor’s veto of City Administrator Charter Amendment: 

I am disappointed in the Mayor’s decision to veto Bill 19-0382: Charter Amendment - City Administrator. Establishing this position is about putting best practices of city government into policy and bringing technical expertise to their administrations in order to better serve the people of Baltimore. I am committed to building a transparent and accountable government that works better for all Baltimoreans. I will not back down on this commitment.
