At the Council Meeting, October 18, 1999,
Council Member Walker moved that the Mayor and Council establish a four
person Art Liaison Committee to work with the Gateway Community Development
Corporation on the establishment of an art district.
She noted that the three towns: Mt. Rainier, Brentwood, and North Brentwood were working on
this arts district. This committee would have conversations concerning
Hyattsville’s involvement, and would investigate the use of the arts as a
unifying theme in the economic development in all four areas.
The committee would investigate the issues and make a recommendation to the
Council. The members would include Marialis Zmuda, a staff member, a
Council Member and one other member. She noted that this motion did not
obligate any expenditure on behalf of the City, but suggested that the City
may want to apply for grant funding in the future.
Council President Brogden expressed her desire to see an arts district encompassing all of
the surrounding municipalities. The motion carried, unanimously.
