At State of the City address, Scott pitches staying the course

Mayor Brandon Scott delivered an election-year last State of the City on Monday night, spending more time touting victories within the past three years and pitching residents on political stability in City Hall than announcing new policies. Before a crowd of officials and supporters at Baltimore Center Stage in Mount Vernon, Scott used his last State of the City address of this current term to tell residents to stay the course with his administration, which has overseen a reduction in homicides and nonfatal gun violence, “while maintaining integrity.”
