The Sentinel: How Do You Envision The County’s Future?


The Sentinel reports on last Saturday’s Envision Prince George’s 21st Century Town Meeting.

Hundreds of people convened Saturday inside the Prince George’s Sports and Learning Complex in Landover to offer opinions and plan for the future of the county during the Envision Prince George’s 21st Century Town Meeting.

“The Envision Prince George’s community forum was very enjoyable. I really liked that we had the opportunity to voice our concerns about the state of the county, and what our vision for a better Prince George’s would look like.

“We walked into an environment where our ideas were finally being heard and taken seriously.  As you looked across the room you could see an outpouring of teens, senior citizens, families and elected officials coming together for a unified purpose,” said Ola Odunola Ojewumi, a student at the University of Maryland.

Kicked off by The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission in collaboration with the nonprofit organization AmericaSpeaks, Envision Prince George’s is designed to develop and implement a vision for the county’s future. Already, there have been several Envision-related meetings, but Saturday’s boasted the most attendees.
