If you’re willing to Uber 5 minutes, there is a couple of great spots in Remington. My top 2 are R. House and JBGB’s. The latter does brick oven pizza and has a whole animal butchery right within the restaurant - it’s fantastic. There is a fun dive bar called the Ottobar that usually hosts local live music if you’re into that too

Ha, I think it might be slightly bad writing with not enough commas used, lol. I actually took it as three things---infrastructure and quality of life grouped together, in the sense of infrastructure condition being a quality of life indicator. So maybe it should read: Scott said his top three priorities are public safety, the environment, and infrastructure & quality of life...?

Can't wait for yet another year of seeing/hearing Harford County and out-of-state clowns continue to talk about how "this is what happens when you defund the police" despite literally the opposite happening.

...show the plan?

We deserve so much better...fucking Dixon

Also yeah I get there are tons of things that mayor's, governors, presidents promise that can't be done for any number of reasons but, as you said, transparency is paramount. I'd rather someone say I screwed up then to keep spouting bullshit that will never happen. Although I do think I am somewhat rare in that as most constituents just want results or at least feel good speeches in lieu of results.
