LEGISLATURE ‘87

BLACK CAUCUS

Agreement reached

On stadium work

The Legislative Black Caucus announced yesterday that it had reached an agreement with the Maryland Stadium Authority to assure black participation in the construction and operation of the proposed two new sports stadiums downtown.

A memo of understanding which will be part of any construction agreement involving the proposed stadiums sets goals for minority involvement in various phases of design, construction, engineering and management of the proposed stadiums as well ass their operation, said Delegate Curt Anderson D-Baltimore and vice chairman of the Caucus.

The agreement would guarantee “the most ambitious minority involvement in state history” said Mr. Anderson.

Bills authorizing the construction of baseball and foot-ball stadiums in the Camden Yards section of Baltimore are now awaiting Gov. William Donald Schaefer’s signature. The legislation received approval from the House and Senate last week
