William Donald Schaefer, the mercurial, demanding leader who reshaped Baltimore in four terms as mayor before serving two terms each as governor and comptroller of Maryland, died Monday at the age of 89.
Schaefer had been in failing health for the past several years. Last week, he was hospitalized with pneumonia at St. Agnes Hospital, near where he had lived in recent years, the Charlestown retirement community in Catonsville.

William Donald Schaefer was laid to rest on Wednesday. Although he served as governor and comptroller of Maryland, he will be remembered best for the job he loved most, being mayor of Baltimore. This year marks the 40th anniversary of his initial election as mayor and the 25th anniversary of his resignation to become governor. His death and the anniversaries give us an occasion to reflect on his Baltimore legacy and the future of the city.
Mayor Schaefer never was satisfied. As soon as one project got under way, he started to push for the next one. His impatience was legendary. As we look around Baltimore today, especially downtown Baltimore, we are not satisfied. The central business district is showing clear signs of decline. Redevelopment projects on both sides of downtown are stalled.

Maryland Comptroller Peter V.R. Franchot lashed out Wednesday at federal lawmakers, blaming recent scrutiny of the state's finances on Congress' contentious national debt-ceiling debate.
Mr. Franchot, a Democrat, said during a state Board of Public Works meeting that Maryland is in sound fiscal shape, despite recent worries that it could lose its AAA bond rating in the wake of last week's federal downgrade by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services - one of the three major rating agencies.
