Baltimore Mayor-Elect Brandon Scott Announces Transition Team
BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Baltimore Mayor-elect Brandon Scott has selected the people who will serve on his transition team.
"I have asked this group to serve because of their leadership, creativity and willingness to break down silos and work together in service of the greater good," said Mayor-Elect Brandon Scott. "I have confidence in this team and look forward to working closely with them in the coming months as we build a new way forward for Baltimore."
Volunteers will work closely with the transition committee co-chairs and steering committee to interview stakeholders and determine Scott's priorities for his first term.
"Baltimore residents do not want the status quo or a continuation of the failed policies of the past," Scott said. "My transition team as a whole will have to consider how we build a better city while navigating the devastating public health and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, something that layers on Baltimore's existing inequities and unrelenting violence epidemic."
Each committee has at least one person under the age of 24 including graduate assistants enrolled at Morgan State University. They will be supported in research and data analysis by Johns Hopkins Centers for Civic Impact.
