Harford County Councilman Dion Guthrie and shopping center and would-be slots magnate David Cordish met in the parking lot of the Edgewater Shopping Center Monday and discussed plans for the crumbling site owned by The Cordish Companies. According to an account by Guthrie, the result was a mutual understanding on both sides.
Guthrie said the two hour meeting, which included representatives from the Edgewood Community Council and Cordish executives, moved from the parking lot to a nearby Chinese restaurant and covered a range of issues.

Frustrated that the Cordish Company is gambling millions on building a new slot machine parlor in Anne Arundel County, yet continues to “hold hostage” down-trodden shopping centers in Edgewood and Joppatowne, Harford County Councilman Dion Guthrie has asked state representatives, including Gov. Martin O’Malley, to withhold the company’s slot machine gambling license until it corrects the deficiencies.
In a letter drafted Feb. 9 to Don Fry, the acting Chairman of the Maryland Video Lottery Facility Location Commission, Guthrie contends the Cordish Company’s shopping centers – Edgewater Village Shopping Center and Joppatowne Plaza – “require intense refurbishment and upkeep.”
