Redistricting Plan for Annapolis Elementary and Middle Schools
This spring, the Board of Education approved a sweeping redistricting plan for the Annapolis Peninsula, changing attendance boundaries for eight of the Annapolis cluster’s nine elementary schools and both of its middle schools - including Eastport - to better utilize space in facilities across the peninsula, reduce overcrowding issues, and establish a more neighborhood feel to school attendance areas. See a map of the new attendance areas for EES (PDF). The communities of Harbour House, Eastport terrace, Colony Hills, Parkwood/Springdale, Severn House, Fairview, August Woods and Spa Cove will attend Eastport Elementary as of this fall. We will have many more "walkers" with this neighborhood consolidation. Street and Sidewalk safety issues will develop as a result. Have a street, sidewalk, intersection, etc, of concern? Respond to the survey and get your views known now. Share this survey with friends and neighbors!

ECA Letter to HACA Director on Homicides & Drug Trade
ECA sent a letter to the Executive Director of the Housing Authority of Annapolis (HACA) on Friday asking that the agency come into compliance with the federal "one strike policy" and evict and ban felons with drug and violent crime convictions from HACA property. The letter cited homicides and drug trade on or adjacent to HACA properties and danger posed to HACA and nearby residents.

VOLUNTEER FOR FALL PLANTING ON MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY
The Eastport Civic Association's Eco-Action Committee is looking for some volunteers to help identify locations and to plant daffodil and tulip bulbs this fall. We'd like to do the work on “Make a Difference Day” Saturday, October 28. “Make a Difference Day” is a national effort encouraging groups and individuals to volunteer in their community to improve the lives of others.
Volunteers may order up to 100 tulip bulbs and 100 daffodil bulbs for each project. This year we will be offering red tulips and yellow Daffodils. The bulbs are free but only available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Reservations for bulbs will be accepted starting Monday, September 11. I can do this if we have a location to plant and enough volunteers. Your suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!

The City of Annapolis, in the midst of a study of Forest Drive and Eastport, invited the public to an open house-style public meeting.
According to the City, the "Forest Drive/Eastport Sector Study will define a vision for the corridor and identify recommendations to achieve this vision."
City officials say, "The Forest Drive / Eastport Sector Study is to be a mirror image of the expressed concerns and desires of the communities interested and affected by the ensuing document. To ensure fair and equitable contribution from businesses, residents, organizations, community groups, and other stakeholders, the City of Annapolis has invited representatives of every constituency to attend one of the 21 meetings held to date."
