Our Services & Initiatives
*Cleanliness & Maintenance
Cleanliness and maintenance are the cornerstones of creating an incredible neighborhood. A clean, well-maintained environment fosters a sense of pride and ownership among residents, visitors, and businesses, while also enhancing the overall perception of the area. Streets free of litter, vibrant landscaping, and graffiti-free surfaces convey a message that the community is cared for and valued, making people feel safer and more secure in their surroundings. Research has shown that clean and orderly public spaces can deter crime by discouraging neglect and reinforcing social norms of respect and stewardship.
Furthermore, a neighborhood that prioritizes cleanliness and upkeep not only attracts investment and engagement but also cultivates a welcoming atmosphere where people are inspired to connect, thrive, and take pride in their community.
Cleanliness is more than just an aesthetic—it is a critical component of building a vibrant, safe, and desirable place to live, work, and visit.
We work to enhance the beauty, safety, and infrastructure of the area through:
- Street Cleaning: Routine sweeping and removal of debris to maintain clean and welcoming streets.
- Graffiti Removal: Prompt elimination of graffiti to uphold the area’s aesthetic appeal and discourage vandalism.
- Trash/Recycling Services: Regular collection and disposal of waste and recyclables to ensure a clean and sustainable environment.
- Landscaping & Beautification: Maintenance of green spaces, planting flowers, and enhancing public areas to promote vibrancy and livability.
- Leaf/Snow Removal & Preparations: Seasonal tasks, including clearing leaves in the fall and ensuring safe, accessible streets and sidewalks during snow events.
- Miscellaneous Work – Maintenance of Signage: Ongoing upkeep and repair of signage throughout the district to ensure visibility and proper wayfinding.

*Safety & Hospitality
As the Peninsula continues to grow, attract new businesses, residents, and visitors, it is essential to ensure a heightened level of safety, security, and hospitality that fosters a welcoming environment for all.
Private security provides a specialized, flexible response that complements BCPD’s efforts, particularly in addressing the dynamic nature of a rapidly developing urban area like the Baltimore Peninsula. With its growing mix of commercial, residential, and public spaces, the Peninsula faces distinct challenges, including the need for more frequent patrols, a quick response to incidents, and proactive deterrence of criminal activity. Private security services also enable a more tailored approach, addressing specific safety concerns within the district while promoting a sense of security and community engagement that benefits both current and future stakeholders. Services Include:
Security Patrols
Regular security patrols are conducted by the third-party contractor, providing a visible security presence and responding to any incidents across the district. These patrols are designed to deter crime and offer reassurance to all who live, work, and visit the area.
Supervision and Coordination
A supervisor from the third-party contractor oversees security operations, ensuring effective coordination among security teams. The supervisor also liaises with local law enforcement and provides regular updates on safety protocols and performance metrics.
Camera Review in Real-Time
The contractor utilizes a network of high-definition security cameras monitored in real-time to quickly identify and respond to incidents. This real-time monitoring supports timely interventions and enhances district-wide security oversight.
Technology for Swift Response Time
The contractor employs technology, enabling rapid reporting and response to security and safety issues or concerns. Security personnel can communicate with supervisors, local authorities, and first responders instantly, ensuring a coordinated and efficient approach to addressing emergencies.
*Placemaking
Placemaking is a foundational priority of BPP’s efforts to create a vibrant, welcoming, and inclusive community. By investing in capital projects and enhancing the public realm, BPP transforms shared spaces into dynamic destinations that foster connection, inspire pride, and drive economic activity. These initiatives prioritize the comfort, safety, and enjoyment of residents, visitors, and businesses, ensuring that the Baltimore Peninsula becomes a model for innovative and people-focused urban design.
