At a forum on the future of downtown Towson at Goucher College Nov. 30, Mike Ertel, President of the Greater Towson Council of Community Associations, an umbrella organization that unites Towson's organized community groups, complained about what he said is a lack of maintenance downtown, both from the county and from businesses that he said need to take more pride in their appearance. Ertel said Friday he wasn't familiar with the chamber's plan to replace the receptacles, but added that his assumption is that new cans would make downtown more presentable.
