Maryland requested $231M from federal government
BALTIMORE —The federal government has turned down Maryland's request for $231 million to fund two large Baltimore transportation projects.
Gov. Larry Hogan and Sagamore Development confirmed that the U.S. Department of Transportation has denied grant applications that would help pay for infrastructure improvements for an Interstate 95 project and at the Howard Street tunnel.
The projects were competing against more than 200 applicants nationwide for $800 million available this year under the government's FASTLANE program. Only 18 projects were selected.

Could it be that this might have something to do with Baltimore's temper tantrum in April 2015? Wouldn't blame the Feds not giving Baltimore a dime considering some of their citizens have already proven they don't respect property. What can you expect? Baltimore's at the back of the queue.
Breaking News!!
HaHaHa!! A Salisbury Fire Department ambulance involved in accident at Rt. 13 and Naylor Mill Road. That is a freaking brand new ambulance just put in service and it is already involved in an accident. I'm sure it was the ambulances fault but they won't get charged. They never do.
Paramedic B-2 says they found the car that hit them behind Panera Bread complaining of neck pain.
Originally they dispatched Station 16, 2 and 5 on a reported house fire and Truck 1 responded without being dispatched. Then they requested Engine Tanker 1-1 and no response because the paid duty crew responded in Truck 1. They were supposed to respond with the engine/tanker but they decided to respond in the trunk without being dispatched. Now they have to dispatch a tanker from Delmar to the scene. Truck 1's crew should be disciplined for that stupid move.
Fire crew found a dog and taking to the front yard.
Command asked for an EMS unit to be dispatched to the scene and Wicomico 911 said no more available units were in the city. Hey Dummy that is not what he asked. Dispatch the next due EMS unit. Wicomico County 911 and the Salisbury Fire Department are an embarrassment to the fire service.
Now Darrin Scott, paid assistant chief, is telling command they are going to transport a dog to the Pets ER via a $150,000 ambulance while tax payers have to wait for and ambulance come from out of town.
Darrin Scott says now they need animal control because the dog is coming around. Now 911 asks command if Pets ER will still be needed and he says go to Darrin Scott for that answer. Darrin Scott is saying that would be a good idea because the dog is coming around and the ambulance crew is saying they still need the Pets ER. Now 911 is getting frustrated.
Now 120 is asking Central to dispatch Station 1 for a stand by crew at Station 1 since all crews are tied up already. Um... I think they would have already been at the station by now Mr. Elliott since their pagers went off a couple of times already.
Usually one of the paid fire chiefs gets on the radio and says they are "City Wide" meaning Central is supposed to run all calls through them for his decision on who to send so it's not all 120's stupidity. At least he is thinking about the betterment of the citizens.
Now Central is asking for Paramedic B-2's exact location because the city police need to know? Shouldn't that have been established in the beginning when they were first involved in that accident.
The Salisbury Fire Department and those clowns at Wicomico Central 911 are an embarrassment to the fire service.
First smart thing the feds have done in a long long time. 11:36 the ghetto dwellers will just crap it up like they do everything else.
12:05 looks like they're on some major energy drink this afternoon. Just let them yammer. Get it out of their system before they realize the article is about Baltimore?
12:17 whats your point? I am glad 12:05 put it somewhere. At least someone is contributing. You didn't.
About time. Why Do They Continue To Give Money To THe Most Unwarranted??? They NEVER take pride in their homes or ANYTHING else for that matter. I would LOVE to get some FREE MONEY to upgrade my own home.
