BALTIMORE, MD (March 24, 2020) – Baltimore City Council President Brandon M. Scott announced details today regarding tomorrow’s Board of Estimates meeting, which will be held virtually in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic and state mandates that groups larger than 10 may not congregate.

“At a time when social distancing can slow the spread of COVID-19 and save lives, we remain focused on transparency and the well-being of our residents, employees and the communities we serve, while not interrupting City business,” said the Council President, who serves as the Chair of the five-member Board of Estimates.

Members of the Board of Estimates will attend the meeting virtually using the WebEx platform. The Board will not hold a pre-meeting tomorrow. Additionally, the Hyman Pressman Room will be closed to the public.
