LPCA’s MOU Process for New Bars and Restaurants
Our Board has spent the past several months developing a clear, principled framework for how we engage with businesses seeking liquor licenses in Locust Point. The result is a set of Core Principles, a standard Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) template, and a step-by-step process guide. We are sharing these draft documents with you now because we believe our members deserve to understand how LPCA represents their interests. Community feedback is welcomed.
The LPCA is offering to cover three months of composting services for free ($75 value) for each LPCA member!
The LPCA is partnering with the Baltimore Compost Collective (BCC) on a program to increase composting in Locust Point. The BCC is a local service that collects food scraps from residences in Baltimore neighborhoods and composts the material to reduce waste, improve sustainability, and build community food security. They also run a youth entrepreneurship program that employs local teenagers and trains them in workforce skills, food access programming, and community-scale composting.
How to join:
- Sign up for compost service here
- Wait for BCC to deliver a composting bucket to your house.
- To complete the sign-up process, register for service on the BCC website. You will receive a reminder email from BCC to do this. The service is $25/month after your three free months.
Collection will be Mondays 6:00am-5:00pm, please sign up by noon Friday, in order for your bucket to be delivered by the following Monday.
If you are not an LPCA member, you may join here. Questions? Contact Dave Arndt or Marvin Hayes.
Locust Point is a neighborhood with deep roots in Baltimore’s history and culture. Nestled on a peninsula surrounded by the Patapsco River, it has long been a place of resilience, community, and connection.
In Locust Point, reminders of history are all around us. Many 19th-century immigrants first arrived here through the port. Fort McHenry, the birthplace of the “Star-Spangled Banner,” anchors the community, while the Domino Sugar refinery and active port terminals remind us that Locust Point is still a working waterfront. It’s not uncommon to meet residents whose parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents grew up right here.
In recent years, Locust Point has also welcomed many new people and families drawn by its friendly blocks, neighborhood schools, and strong sense of community. Neighbors love to gather on stoops, at any of our wonderful locally owned restaurants, or at our beautiful Latrobe Park. Locust Point is a place where long-time residents and newcomers alike create a welcoming and family-oriented atmosphere.
