Ryan
Delany
hi
Ryan
Delaney,
with
the
Department
of
Parks
and
Recreation
here
to
present
the
forestry
and
natural
resources
plan
a
little
later.
E
G
I
Sten
go
first
Steven
delesio,
commissioner,.
J
Hi
Eric
G,
commissioner.
H
Vincent,
no
public
comment.
Okay,
so
we
can
just
jump
to
the
April
minutes.
I,
don't
think
we
got
May
yet
so
anybody
have
Carrie
and
I
put
in
some
changes.
H
This
we
have
any
trouble.
We
can
come
back
to
that
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
and
Michaela
has
just
joined
us
as
well.
Okay,
so
I
think.
Maybe
then
we
can
just
go
ahead
and
and
just
jump
right
in
with
talkers
Karen
tonis
we're
very
grateful
to
have
our
County
Board
pleases
on
with
us
today.
This
is
your
chance
to
ask
questions
of
him
and
kind
of
have
a
good.
L
Better
than
I
do
supposed
to
to
tell
me:
what's
going.
M
On
so
I
can
give
you
a
part
of
of
that.
You
know
picture
and
the
the
beauty.
K
M
U,
interacting
with
the
commission,
is
that
you
always
have
the
other
part
of
your
future.
So
that's
That's
essential
right.
We
we
we.
M
So
we
have
various
inputs
in
the
political
and
policy
and
decision
making
process,
and
this
is
one
of
the
most
important
ones,
because
you
are
actually
advising
us
and
you're.
You
know
supposed
and
we
desire
that
you
are
Frank
and
filtered
and
direct,
and
you
call
Spade
to
spade-
and
you
tell
us
also
where
you
see
things
happening,
and
you
know
we,
we
will
have
questions
for
you.
L
M
Sometimes
come
through
C
staff
in
form
of
initiatives
of
work
of
proposals,
all
types
of
proposals
to.
I
M
To
them,
but
also
the
County
Board,
has
questions
that
go
a
little
bit
further.
I
mean
I
do
believe
that
in
Arling
we
have
a
common
understanding
that
we
understand
the
the
challenges
for
our
climate.
We
understand
the
urgency
we
have
a
I
mean
I
think
this
is
not
disputable.
This
is
not
on
you
know
in
discussion.
M
What
is
in
discussion
is
how,
when
and
who
and
at
what
cost
and
what
you
know
tradeoffs
each
each
bifurcation
of
every
decision,
so
I
have
to
say
I
appreciate
a
lot
the
work
of
the
commission,
even
if
sometimes
it
is
uncoverable
for
double,
because
it's
you
know
Frank
and
unfilter,
and
this
is
good
on
the
other
side.
I
always
want
to.
You
know
to
underscore
how
important
it
is
the
to
to
maintain
this
sense
of
collaboration
with
everybody,
so
that
we
are
all
together.
M
It
is
extremely
important
to
see
you
know
what
the
next
steps
are,
what
we
can
achieve
now,
a
little
later
and
a
little
later,
and
to
not
to
be
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
put
it
in
terms
of
patients
and
impatients
I
want
to
put
it
in
terms
of
strategic.
M
You
know
escalation
and
how
we
go
from
one
goal
to
the
next
one,
without
losing
sight
of
what
really
are
our
important
goals,
starting
with
our
nominal
climate
goals
here,
which
are
pretty
tight,
pretty
difficult
to
achieve
and
will
always
benefit
from
a
good
assessments
on
the
road
about
whether
we
are
achieving
them
or
not,
and
what
is
the
you
know?
What
are
the
accelerator?
What
are
accelerators
so
I
will
touch
on
a
few
things,
but
I
literally
want
to
go
very
fast
through
them,
so
that
we
have
time
to
discuss
that.
A
N
M
A
where
I
have
a
a
conflict
and
I
need
to
jump
over
to
read
for
for
a
different
conversation
with
so
first
of
all,
what
staff
is
right
right
now,
working
in
was
a
a
priority
of
myself
and
a
few
more
County
board
members
at
least
two
more.
It's
the
CCA,
the
Community
Choice
agregation.
M
We
know
that,
and
you
know
Dimitra
at
alry-
please
jump
in
and
correct
me
if
I
say
something.
That's
not
accurate.
I
know
that
this
isn't
with
our
country,
DET
urgence
office.
We're
really
trying
to
get
a
framew,
a
legal
framework
to
enable
the
country
to.
L
M
They
as
long
as
I
am
informed.
We
have
discovered
that
there
are
some
issues
with
the
regulatory
state
regulatory
framework
and
we
try
to
circumvent
them
or
to
work
with
them.
I
know,
as
you
probably
all
know,
Lon
has
passed
the
process
for
similar
reasons.
Fairfax
hasn't
really
taken
that
up
as
a
priority.
At
this
point,
they
probably
wait
to
see
what
we
do
and
we
are
looking
at
Alexandri
as
a
potential
partner
here,
which
is
also
you
know,.
A
M
Would
be
great
CPAs
program,
I
mean
the
the
high
environment
is,
is
offering
us
a
a
window
of
opportunity,
because
cpay
Statewide
has
been
a
very
slow
update.
We
have
the
one
and
only
you
know,
living
yeah.
M
Commercial
cbase
project,
we
have
a
second
project
in
preparation.
This
is
this
is
supported
by
the
the
high
interest
environment
right
now,
it
makes
is
basically
a
little
bit
more
competitive
and
that's
a
good
opportunity
to
to
boost
and
to
to
focus
on
that.
As
you
know,
both
myself
and
at
least
one
of
my
colleagues-
mat
tanti.
We
are
very
interested
in
finding
ways
to
create
a
green
bank.
A
M
A
M
Tailored
to
help
us,
but
to
to
help
startups.
A
M
The
more
Regional
Statewide
scale,
but
we
are
not
losing
focus
on
that.
We
want
to
be
partners
in
in
an
effort
like
this.
We
know
how
important
it
is
and
how
much
of
a
difference
it
make
on
Transportation
the
very
big
conversation
it
starts
here
today.
You
have
a
already
a
a
I
think
it's
in
your
agenda
draft
strategy.
This
is
not
unrelated
to
the
decarbonization
of
Transportation,
all
all
models,
all
aspects
of
that
Transit
and
private
transit,
public
and
private
Transit
I-
should.
A
M
M
Somewhere
there
we
are
expecting
a
u
a
first
final
draft
on
the
decarbonization
plan
for
Arlington.
There,
I
I
expect
to
have
very
indepth
conversation
about
that,
not
only
about
how
we
Electrify
our
transportation,
but
also
how
we
achieve
other
things
that
have
been
notoriously.
M
Like,
for
example,
model
shift-
and
you
know
going
from
driv
Locomotion
to
transit
to
you,
know,
boost
micromobility
using
cycling
and
other
things.
So
there
are
a
lot
of
things
to
to
consider
there.
At
the
same
time,
I'm
also
shairing.
M
The
committee
on
climate,
environment
and
energy
policy
of
the
Council
of
governments
and
my
Focus
this
year
is
to
first
and
foremost
to
create
a
a
complete
and
workable
repository
of
everything
under
the
applicable
Sun
here
in
the
region
to
boost
TV
electric
vehicle
in
its
broader,
broader
sense
that
includes
Transit.
M
To
to
Implement
infrastructure,
local
governments
across
the
region
need
to
be
coordinated
and
need
to
be
knowledgeable
about
what
works,
what
doesn't
work
and
have
a
more
informed
Universe
of
potential
choices
to
to
make
so
we
are
working
with
our
Regional
Partners
in
Montgomery
County
in
the
district
of
Colombia
and
Northern
Virginia,
to
create
this
repository.
Part
of
it
is
already
U
online
available.
M
I
think
this
is
in
aming
work
and
we
all
will
learn
a
lot
of
out
of
that
and
I
believe
that
the
commission
will
benefit
from
this
as
well
as
we
go
andate
critique
what
our
staff
gives
us.
A
M
Then
we
talk
a
lot
about
of
about
Urban,
solar
and
urban
Renewables
in
general.
We
have
some
issues
there.
As
of
lately
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
followed
the
news
that
Dominion
seems
to
be
asking.
A
A
M
Justifiably,
High
interconnection
fees.
This
has
triggered
in
Fairfax
radio
lawsuit.
We
we
are
observing
that
very
very
closely.
I
was
very
happy
to
see
some
side
plant
coming
in
with
extra
solar
on
the
roof,
even
on
the
roof
of
an
adjacent
building.
This
is
great.
I
was
not
so
personally-
and
this
is
a
personal
comment
here-
was
not
very
thrilled
to
see
that
not
and
public
building
coming
in
the
Career
Centers.
A
M
So
I
know
that
the
mro
staff,
with
all
the
limitations
that
they
have
in
in
terms
of
capacity
and
and
Staffing
they
are
working
hard
to
update
this
and
to
make
it
more
effective.
Until
now
and
I
and
I
think
we
will
see
in
the
fall
again
a
a
a
report
on
this
and
and
aesome
progress
on
how
the
Green
Building
incentive
has
worked
so
far.
The
the
truth
of
the
matter
is
that
out
of
the
four
tiers
that
we
are
offering
and
incentives.
A
L
M
We
we
can,
we
can
discuss
that
so
anyway.
The
good
good
news
is
that
developers
have
taken
that
the
bad
news
is
that
they
didn't
take
the
highest
yet,
so
the
commercial
sector
is
still
good.
Soft
I
mean
it's
soft,
so.
A
M
M
That
developers
can
get
the
the
density,
the
extra
density,
with
other
significant
contributions
like
for
affordable
housing
Etc
it
is
it
it
guts
me
every
single
time
to
have
to
even
think
that
climate
in
housing
or
climate
in
transit
and
climate
with
public
spaces
are
in
competition
for
for
for
public
benefits
from
development.
But
I
can
only
answer
at
this
point.
Think
about
that
when
you
vote.
M
Of
of
this,
the
you
know
the
frame,
the
frame
that
is
Set
political
frame
that
sets
on
through
elections
and
especially
on
the
state
level,
the
IRA
and
the
money
that
is
right
now,
beginning
to
flow
in
the
National
system
on
on
climate
change
mitigation.
It
definitely
you
know
the
federal
the
federal
framework
supports
communities
that
have
a
very
different
profile
than
ours,
so.
A
M
Native
American
Community
we're
not
a
loow
income
Community.
We
are
not
a
coal
mining
Community.
Thankfully
we
are.
We
have
a
lot
of
advantages
that
the
Ira
doesn't
Pro.
We
wouldn't
qualify
very
tall
that
doesn't
mean
that
we
are
not
paying
attention.
You
know
that
staff
is
working
in
EPA
grants,
veral
Justice
grants.
The
Energy
Futures
is
a
a
a
a
framework
that
I
I
think
we
fit
very
well.
The
there
are
several
decarbonization
initiatives
here,
including
Transit,
including
sorry,
including
things
like
heat
pumps,
Etc.
M
I
have
been
following
the
heat
P
discuss,
National
National
heat
pum
discussion
that
is
I
I
was
very
positively
surprised
that
heat
pumps
have
a
seat.
L
M
But
it's
there.
The
issue
of
our
EV
infrastructure
I,
mentioned
that
before
I
know,
that
staff
is
preparing
is
working
on
sting
availability
standards
Etc.
This
is
far
more
complicated
that
we
ever
I
ever
thought
before
the
moment
that
our
C
committees
sat
together
and
they
began
to
list
all
the
issues
that
we
we
need
to
regulate
all
the
issues
we
need
to
resolve
it
and
how
to
make
it
also
U
equitably.
M
Have
solutions
that
are
that
respond
to
equity
Etc?
All
this
is
finding
a
way
into
staff's
work,
and
we
will
be
hearing
together
with
all
the
other,
all
thingss
in
in
this
fall,
so
this
will
be
a
very
active
fall
in
terms
of
climate
policy.
Finally,
we
are
talking
a
lot
about
two
things.
One
is
the
natural
resources
master
plan.
This
is
part
of
our
environment.
It's
part
of
conservation.
This
is
coming
now.
M
This
is
this
will
be
on
on
the
docket
right
right
now,
I'm
very
interested
of
your
take
it's
not
just
a
natural
resources,
conversation
It's,
actually,
an
environment
conversation
and
several
things
like
heat
island
effect
mitigation
Etc
is
Rel,
is
related
to
that
storm.
Water
management
has
been
our
local
big
conversation
over
a
very
very
long
time
and
continues
to
be
that
we.
K
A
M
A
A
M
To
form
this,
the
basic
resiliency
makeup
of
Arlington
basic
issues
of
resiliency
staff.
A
M
Planning
for
this
at
some
point
in
the
winter,
so
this
is
coming
up
and
along
will
come
also
a
more
specific
list
of
CP
of
community
energy
plan
implementation
policies.
That
will
be
very
specific.
M
So
this
is
part
of
implementation,
did
I
mention
Equity
I
did
this
is
one
of
the
other
big
environmental
and
climate
Equity
is,
is
an
evolving
Discovery
for
all
of
us
to
understand
really
what
what
this
means
and
bring
in
all
the
communities
that
need
to
have
a
voice
on
this
will
be
not
an
easy
task,
and
we
are
just
have
just
begun
to
understand
who
who.
L
Q
I'll,
just
this
is
more
news
than
feedback,
but
the
with
respect
to
the
proposed
staff
changes
to
the
Green
Building
incentive
program,
which
of
course,
is
due
for
a
rethink
and
reevaluation.
The
energy
committee
is
going
to
be
bringing
in
a
member
of
the
private
sector
who
works
with
building
owners
and
developers
to
get
some
views
from
private
sector
about
what
kind
of
incentives
would
be
next
necessary
in
order
to
get
take
up
from
the
private
sector
onious
it
so
I'd
invite
everybody.
L
H
Okay,
one
thing
kind
of
on
that
whole
issue
related
to
negotiating
with
with
develop
ERS
in
terms
of
you
know
where
we've
got
housing
competing
with
environment.
H
You
know
to
what
ex
what
are
the
kind
of
legal
restrictions
that
keeps
the
County
board
for
not
ex
setting
the
expectations
high
enough
that
can
really
capture
all
of
the
many
county
benefits
versus
figuring
that
they
have
to
give
something
up
to
to
get
something
else,
and
especially
you
know,
as
far
as
I
can
tell
gbi
or
the
gbi
is
the
only
thing
that
actually
has
specific
numbers
attached
to
density,
so
it
all
becomes
really
fuzzy.
So
you
know:
to
what
extent
can
the
County
Board
just
say?
M
Is
that
housing
is
so
finicky
and
so
customized,
and
so,
depending
on
the
situation,
the
building
the
deal
of
the
financing
structure
of
the
of
the
development
of
the
you
know?
Who
who
you
know
what
what
the
intended
price
range
of
the
building
will
be,
what
the
other
and
then
it
has
to
be
balanced
with
SE.
Several
things
that
are
sometimes
are
very
close.
A
M
That
so
you
know
you
want
also
Transit
benefit.
You
want
to
also
public
space
benefit
Etc.
It
is
the
way
the
the
gbi
was
U
envisioned.
It
was
better
defined
with
you
know,
numbers
and
and
predictable
outcomes.
I
hear
you,
though,
that
we
may
want
to
have
a
more
customized
approach
to
that.
However,
we
have
to
able
to
measure
it
as
well,
so.
M
Think
that
U,
that
it's
a
good
to
me
when
you
do
an
evaluation
of
a
building
or
sideline
application,
and
you
say
so.
M
That
this
this
achieves
60%
of
the
goals
or
not.
But
while
I
can
have
many
critiques
about
how
you
do
that
Etc.
It
gives
us,
though,
a
a
Bas
to
have
to
keep
to
keep
score
and
see
how
we
are
doing
and
through
an
intensive
construction
cycle
that
we
have
had
in
the
last
five
or
six
and
is
still.
L
M
Especially
on
you
know,
Richmond
Highway
Etc.
This
is
a
good.
This
is
a
good
place
to
to
to,
at
some
point
to
to
take
stock
and
say
how
far
have
we
gone?
Are
this
building
now.
A
M
Have
a
a
number
of
buildings
that
will
be
with
us
the
next
50
years?
What
else
do
we
have?
We
will
will
we
have
to
mitigate
in
order
to
be
compliant
with
our
goals?
This
buildings
have
brought
us
closer
to
our
goals,
but
not
probably
close
enough.
If
we
look
I
mean
if
we
continue
at
this
pace,
this
is
what
we
are
not
going
to
achieve,
or
this
is
what
we
are
going
to
achieve
so
point
taken,
and
this
will
be
part
of
the
conversation
that
we'll
have
on
GPI.
E
On
a
related
topic,
the
same
topic,
it
may
say
seem
naive
to
say
this,
but
we
have
a
20%
over
20%
office
building.
E
M
C
M
L
You,
if
you
you,
your
your
housing
cost,
goes
up
only
if
you
change
yes,
so
you
know
the
rest
of.
M
The
world,
your
your,
your
mortgage
rate,
will
adjust
during
your
mortgage
tenure,
and
so
there
is
no
difference,
so
the
the
mobility
from
housing
types
into
housing
market
is
is
built
in
b.
So
this
is
one
thing
this
holds
inventory
very,
very,
very
low
and
creates
a
part
of
housing
market
is,
is
has
a
has.
M
We
are,
we
have
an
additional
deficit
there,
and
the
third
thing
is
because
of
all
this,
the
OWN
ownership
Market
is
very
tight,
extremely
expensive.
So.
M
A
lot
of
people
stuck
who
could
buy
under
normal
star
in
the
in
the
rental
market.
What
does
this
mean?
It
means
that
you
have
higher
rents,
far
higher
rents,
because
the
demand
is
there
and
those
who
are
in
this
rental
market.
They
cannot
go
anywhere,
except
if
they
they
leave
the
region.
They
go
somewhere
else,
but
they
jobs
are
so.
This
is
accentuated
by
by
the
demographic
fact.
L
M
When
you
go
across
here,
you
will
pay
28,
thou
$2800
for
a
two
bedroom
apartment
and
at
some
point
you
will
come
back
and
say
What's
it
work
what's
this
work,
so
that
has
created
not
only
a
problem
with
housing
Supply,
but
also
a
a
very
strong
investment
Vector
for
only
rental.
This
is
why
we
are
actually
nobody
is
interested
to
do
condos
or
other
buildings
where
you
could
come
in
and
say:
hey,
an
environmentally
sound
building
a
you
know,
a
tighter
building,
a
a
better
envelope,
a
lead
building.
M
You
know
a
condo
would
be
a
possibility
right.
This
is
a
this.
This
is
where
it
makes
sense.
When
you
have
the
rental
building,
you
have
a
a
different
Pathway
to
to
sustainability,
where
where
it
has
to
make
sense
for
the
operator
or
owner
of
this
right,
so
it
unless
we
balance
our
our
or
or
we
find
a
way
to
balance
our
our
housing
market.
M
We
are
not
going
to
have
a
very
strong
support
for
environmentally
excellent
buildings,
and
this
is
why
we
say
that
or
I
say
many
times
that
the
the
stick
we
we
can
design
many
carrots
here,
but
the
stick
has
to
come
from
State
regulation
or
or
national
regulation.
Where
you
say,
there's.
M
R
Okay,
good
explanation:
yeah
Urban
heat
I
effects,
something
that's
coming.
Yes,
it
hasn't
quite
not
quite
the
same
in
terms
of
crystallizing
public
concern
in
the
way
that
let's
say
storm
water
and
flooding
it,
but
how
I
wanted
to
get
your
perspective?
How
do
you
get
this
Urban
island
effect
into
the
planning
cycle?
I
was
thinking
of
Langston
efforts,
for
example,
there's
a
scenario.
A
R
Which
that
becomes
a
very
big
heat
is
any
on
how
I
devel
and
how
do
you
kind
of
I
just
wanted
your
perspective
on
how
kind
of
get
that
t.
M
R
M
And
then
you
have
to
see
I
mean
as
a
planner.
I
can
tell
you
that
modern
thinking
is
about
U
Distributing,
the
heat
mass,
in
a
way
that
it
has
a
better
chance
to
cool
all
the
time.
So
you
have
to
account
for
atmospheric
circulation.
You
have
to
account
for
for
many
more
trees,
you,
you
know
you
have
to
account
for
the
balance
of
moisture
and
and
know
drafts
between
buildings
Etc.
M
You
can
actually
observe
that
in
practice,
if
you
choose
one
of
these
90
degree
days
and
you
go
to
the
Met
Park.
L
Park,
which
is
a
very
interesting
experiment
for
you
to
to
make
you.
A
M
Others
are
the
newest.
K
O
M
How
a
glass
building
accumulates
and
and
radiates
heat,
but
the
rest
is
masonry,
so
you
can
see
how
much
of
a
benefit
a
really
lucious
Park
brings.
Now
we
have
to
actually
account
for
that
and
and
I
I
think
we
have
to
begin
to
measure
that
personal
footnote
here,
our
housing,
our
housing
problem
is
not
helping
us
with.
M
M
10
Etc:
this
has
to
do
with
a
acute
deficit
of
Housing
and
it
has
to
do
with
our
pre
building
commitment
to
Transit
oriented
development
and
Corridor
development,
20
centory
way.
This
is
not
going
to
solve
the
heat
island
problem.
The
conversation.
P
M
We
are
having
right
now
is
that
we
need
to
distribute
the
heat
Mass
better
and
we
have
to
make
it
aier
so
that
we
can
take
that
we
can
manage
temperature
and
and
moisture
better.
Then
we
need
a
lot
of
research
to
give
you
an
idea.
So
there
is
a
of
Maryland
I've
seen
a
they.
They
say,
for
example,
that
concentrated
growths
of
you
know:
block
full
of
trees.
Etc
is
has
a
far
better
temperature,
mitigating
and
moisture
regulating
effect
than
having
none
of
this,
but
only
Street
Tre
line
streets.
A
A
E
K
That
Tas
I
appreciate
the
County's
recognition
of
climate
change
issue,
rhetorically,
the
County's
clearly
done
that
and
the
goals
that
the
county
set
are
admir
admirable
goals.
You
know
we've
been
very
concerned
here
that
the
county
is
not
using
all
the
tools
that
are
available
to
to
get
to
actually
meet
those
goals.
We
pushed
you
know
heavily
on
electrification
and
transportation.
I
don't
want
to
blabber
that
here,
because
we
got
letters
on
that.
Maybe
somebody
else
will
raise
it.
K
I
always
I'm
like
a
one
trick
pony
and
always
raise
that,
but
there's
another
issue:
I
want
to
raise
where
I've
seen
no
attention
from
the
county
and
accounting
for
the
embedded
carbon,
the
different
projects
that
occur
in
the
county
when
you
tear
down
what's
there
and
replace
it
with
something
there
and
there
just
seems
to
be
no
calculation.
Is
it
worthwhile
to
actually
tear
this
down?
Are
the
additional
benefits
from
what
you're
replacing
with?
Are
they
going
to
be
worth?
K
What
we've
lost
by
releasing
the
carbon
and
all
the
carbon
emissions
are
going
occur
from
the
construction
process?
And
that's
easy
enough
to
put
in
you
know
it's
it's
an
approximation.
You
don't
get
perfect
calculations
on
that,
but
it's
easy
enough
to
put
that
into
the
whole
planning
process
and
I
just
haven't
seen
it
on
any
projects.
M
Sowh
I
I
agree
with
you,
and
staff
is
happy
to
have
them.
Achim
I
will
give
you
my
take
on
that
embodied
carbon
is
a
very
New
Concept
for
governance
in
land
understanding,
Ed
carbon,
especially
in
the
environment.
With
first
of
all,
we
we
are
blessed
to
have
a
lot
of
wood.
M
But
then
we
are-
and
we
are
beginning
to
take
into
account
this,
for
example,
3108
Columbia
Pike,
we
are
be
deconstructing.
The
we're
doing
otherwise
I
hear
you
on
on
in
our
general
emissions
balance
sheets
to
include
the
embodied
carbon
I.
Definitely
agree
with
this.
We
have
to
become
better
on
this.
This
is
relatively
new
for
us,
and
you
see
the
other
pressures
mentioned
housing
before
you
will
understand
what
the
comp
the
competition
is
here.
K
Got
it
and
we
understand
the
competition,
but
it
didn't
even
seem
to
be
part
of
the
equation.
It's
not
even
being
balanced.
G
Can
I'm
sorry
can
I
make
a
couple
of
comments
here.
Just
for
clarification,
embodi
carbon
is
already
in
the
GBA
gbi.
It
has
been
there,
but
it
is
in
the
higher
tiers,
and
these
are
the
tiers
that
again,
no
one
other
the
only
applicant
developer
taking
up
on
that
was
Amazon.
It
is
also
a
little
bit
more
obvious
in
the
proposed
new
form
of
the
gbi.
G
It's
a
little
bit
more
robust
and
I
did
want
to
note
that
Paul
R
and
the
head
of
our
gbi
program
who
joined
us
a
little
over
a
year
ago.
We
he
joined
us
from
gendler
who's,
a
well-known
architect,
particularly
in
sustainable
design
and
construction
and
Paul,
was
actually
one
of
their
experts
on
embodied
carbon
and
design
and
construction.
So
it's
not
that
we
don't
have
any
attention
to
that.
It's
just
up
take
has
been
missing
Kevin
and
that's.
M
H
We're
get
this
some
I
think
we're
gonna
have
address
this
issue,
particularly
on
Langston
Boulevard,
because
I
think
you
know,
I
haven't
made
a
whole
lot
of
sense
over
the
most
recent
plan,
but
you
know
they're
talking
a
lot
about
taking
down
a
lot
of
particularly
what
was
going
to
be
market
rate,
affordable
housing
and
just
kind
of
concerned.
About
that
whole.
Is
you
lose.
C
H
M
I
can
give
you
just
my
anecdotal
experience
from
Columbia
bike
where
we
have
bigger
repository
of
that.
So
the
biggest
problem
with
sustaining
the
Gard
Apartments
Etc,
is
the
actually
the
quality
of
the
construction.
So
the
40s
and
50s
concrete
is
a
huge
liability.
It
was
cured
with
salt,
it
attacks
the
rebar,
it
literally
decomposes
right
now,
and
the
cost
and
the
environmental
cost
of
actually
fixing
that,
for
the
yield
that
you
have
in
terms
of
housing
is
a
real
ch.
M
We
have
examples
of
doing
both
and
you're
right.
We
have
to
study
them
so
that
we.
H
P
H
A
M
How
can
be
intense
you
can
still
on
in
balance,
sustain
the
open
space,
but
you
have
to
talk
different
heights
and
you
have
to
and
I
understand
that
compensation
is
not
only
financial
or
otherwise,
but
so
are
you
taking
more
carbon
out
and
you
have.
H
G
It's
sorry,
no
really
quickly
in
reference
to
yours
and
and
Mark's
comments
about,
if
you're
looking
at
plan
Langston
Boulevard,
we
just
added
language
in
the
past
two
weeks,
it'll
be
in
the
sustainability
section
that
specifically
addresses
Urban
heat
heat
island
effect
and
also
impresses
upon
the
importance
for
adaptive,
not
just
sustainable
development,
but
climate
adaptation
approaches,
and
this
is
early
but
we're
about
to
release
an
RFP
out
of
storm
water.
One
of
the
objectives
of
the
RP
is
to
develop
kind
of
an
urban
metabolism
plan.
G
That's
a
green
infrastructure
plan,
but
not
your
parents
or
your
grandparents
green
infrastructure
plan
we're
looking
at
really
Innovative
and
and
really
comprehensive.
Embedding
that
kind
of
green
infrastructure
in
a
lot
of
places
where
it's
not
ordinarily,
used
again
because
of
urban
heat
Islands.
M
A
A
H
Yeah,
okay.
Turning
on
to
our
next
agenda
item,
we.
A
Have
Ryan
Delaney.
D
Yeah,
absolutely
let
me
pull
up
the
slides.
Really
quick
and
I
will
try
to
keep
this
as
brief
as
possible.
I
know
you
all
have
a
tight
agenda.
This.
D
Evening,
all
right
can
you,
you
all
see
the
the
presentation-
yes
great
cool,
so,
as
I
said
earlier,
I'm
Ryan
Delaney,
with
DPR
and
I'm
the
project
manager
for
the
forestry
and
natural
resources,
Plan
update
and,
as
you
all
know,
we
recently
published
the
latest
draft
of
the
plan
for
public
comment
and
just
wanted
to
take
this
opportunity
to
provide
a
little
bit
of
a
reorientation
to
the
document
and
the
process
and
take
a
look
at
the
changes
to
the
draft
since
the
last
version,
and
also
our
engagement
and
next
steps
moving
forward
as
we
as
we
March
towards,
hopefully
adoption
so
great.
D
If
you
all
remember,
we
published
the
preliminary
draft
of
the
plan
last
summer
and
have
spent
the
last
few
months,
analyzing
that
feedback
incorporating
it
into
the
draft
and
creating
the
next
iteration
of
the
fnrp,
we're
in
the
information
gathering
and
briefings
phase
of
the
timeline
indicated
by
the
orange
arrow
and
yeah.
We
just
published
the
draft
on
June
1st
and
our
engagement
process
is
close
to
wrapping
up
the
comment.
Period
extends
to
June
30th
and
we're
excited
to
hear
what
folks
have
to
say
so.
D
Looking
forward
we're
targeting
a
request
to
advertise
this
fall
and
then
bringing
the
draft
to
the
board
this
winter,
ideally
in
December.
So
before
I
move
on
to
the
the
sort
of
meat
of
the
presentation,
I
want
to
touch.
Briefly.
On
the
highlights
of
our
last
engagement,
we
had
really
broad
participation
across
the
various
mechanisms,
ultimately
totaling
over
4,000
responses
across
all
of
our
engagements
and
in
terms
of
what
we
heard
at
a
at
a
high
level.
Most
folks
were
relatively
pleased
with
the
draft.
D
They
felt
that
the
actions
under
each
strategic
Direction
as
a
whole
support
the
County's
vision
for
its
forest
and
natural
resources
and
that
the
vision
articulated
in
the
plan
was
a
good
one.
That
said,
we
received
a
lot
of
constructive
feedback
that
fell
into
the
themes
on
this
slide,
including
more
urgency
in
tone
and
content,
particularly
related
to
climate
issues,
and
how
we
were
framing
some
of
the
recommendations
making
Equity
core
to
all
elements
of
the
plan.
D
The
introduction
of
more
goals,
metrics
and
details
about
implementation
and
deeper,
more
creative
thinking
about
land
uses
possible
incentives,
education
efforts
as
well
as
some
dispute
around
the
40%
countywide
tree
canopy
Target,
and
whether
or
not
that
was
ambitious
enough
or
appropriate
for
for
Arlington.
D
So
moving
into
the
new
draft.
Since
our
last
engagement,
we've
made
a
lot
of
changes
as
I
mentioned
and
as
if
you
open
the
document,
you
can
see
that
we,
those
were
primarily
across
these
three
areas.
We
added
a
new
executive
summary
to
the
introduction
and
made
edits,
reflecting
the
comments
that
we
received
on
urgency,
tone
and
existing
conditions.
D
We
made
changes
to
some
of
our
existing
recommendations
and
introduce
new
ones
in
the
Strategic
directions
that
I'll
go
over
in
more
detail
a
little
bit
later
in
this
slide
deck
and
then,
lastly,
there
were
significant
changes
in
structure
and
format,
incorporating
Maps,
graphics
and
charts,
strengthening
our
action,
verbs
and
cross
references,
expanding
some
of
the
appendices
and,
most
importantly,
adding
the
implementation
plan
and
the
draft
priority
actions
which
is
sort
of
the
close
of
of
my
part
of
the
presentation
today.
D
So
with
that
I'd
like
to
move
into
a
quick
refresher
of
what's
in
the
plan,
this
slide
here
shows
the
highle
outline
of
of
of
the
document,
noting
the
new
executive
summary
and
the
implementation
plan,
and
here
is
a
highlight
of
our
strategic
directions.
These
are
the
broad
policy
areas
that
create
the
framework
for
the
plan's
recommendations.
The
structure
and
general
intent
of
each
of
these
four
has
not
changed
since
the
preliminary
draft,
but
they've
all
seen
several
refinements.
Okay.
D
So
now
now
that
we
are
oriented
hopefully
or
reoriented,
I'd
like
to
go
through
some
of
the
changes
we
made
in
response
to
the
feedback
we
received
in
our
last
round
of
Engagement
chapter
by
chapter,
starting
here
with
strategic
Direction,
one
conservation,
so
I
mentioned
comments.
We
received
around
our
40%
tree
canopy
coverage.
While
while
we
believe
that
40%
is
an
appropriate
countywide
goal,
we
wanted
to
add
specificity.
So
we've
added
language
calling
out
local
conditions
and
ecology.
D
D
We
didn't
have
a
sort
of
a
corresponding
metric
or
or
Target
for
Forest,
Health
or
ecological
function,
which
is
why
we've
included
the
native
tree
canopy
recommendation
112
and
we
didn't
have
strong
guidance
for
public
sites
and
how
they
could
contribute
to
the
overall
County
tree
canopy
goal
both
on
their
own
as
a
and
as
a
sort
of
a
lead
by
example.
Tactic
or
strategy.
D
1.2.4
and
1.2.5
were
included
to
add
specificity
to
the
commitment
in
the
document
to
create
more
space
for
trees
and
natural
resources.
In
response
to
some
of
the
comments
we
got
examining
that
that
plank
of
the
fnrp
and
1.2.6
was
added
to
track
the
ongoing
conversation
about
updating
the
County's
weed
ordinance,
if
you
all
are
following
that,
it
does
seem
like
that's
proceeding
ahead
of
the
fnrp
schedule,
so
that
may
fall
out
of
the
document
if
it's
implemented,
which
is
a
great
thing.
But
for
now
it
it's
in
the
draft.
D
Other
smaller
changes
include
updates
to
existing
recommendations
to
seek
out
even
small
Land
Management
op
or
land
acquisition
opportunities
for
natural
resources
purposes.
For
example,
some
of
the
recent
Dees
micro
reforestation
projects
and
to
pursue
bringing
APS
forested
lands
into
County
management
to
make
for
consistent,
Forest
manag
across
the
county,
regardless
of
public
ownership
relevant
to
some
of
the
conversation
you
all
were
having
with
with
our
board
member
sd1
now
also
includes
a
a
guide
to
biophilic
design.
D
This
section
is
really
similar
to
The
Casual
use
space
guidance
that
we
have
in
the
public
spaces
master
plan,
so
kind
of
taking.
From
that
precedent
we
heard
we
heard
feedback,
particularly
from
commission
members
last
round
that
guidance
on
what
constitutes
biophilic
design
Des
would
be
really
helpful
for
site
plan
reviews,
other
project
reviews,
and
so
we
developed
this
supplement
for
and
placed
it
in
sd1
where
most
of
our
development
related
recommendations
live.
D
It's
not
a
formal
design,
checklist
or
or
design
manual,
but
we
felt
that
the
fnrp
could
really
help
better
illustrate
what
the
county
means
when
it's
talking
about
biophilic
design
by
sharing
successful
projects
from
a
couple
different
categories,
private
development,
School
sites
parks
and
streetscapes,
and
it's
essentially
meant
to
reinforce
the
recommendations
to
incorporate
green
infrastructure
and
vegetation
into
the
built
environment
that
are
throughout
the
document.
Moving
to
sd2
climate
mitigation
adaptation
and
resilience.
D
The
primary
change
here
was
to
enhance
action,
step
2.1.1
with
preliminary
GIS
analysis,
identifying
several
neighborhoods
that
are
currently
underst
sted
by
Green
trees
and
green
infrastructure
that
are
exper
experiencing.
You
know
higher
ground
level.
Temperatures
pursu.
You
know
to
your
your
all's
discussion
of
urban
heat
island.
D
We
also
explicitly
placed
this
recommendation
as
a
prioritization
measure
for
the
40%
countywide
tree
canopy
goal
and
cross
referenced
it
with
strategic
Direction
4,
which
is
where
all
of
our
operations
and
inventory
and
Reporting
recommendations
live,
directing
staff
to
report
on
progress
towards
tree
Equity
goals
regularly.
The
major
updates
to
sd3
biodiversity
is
the
addition
of
this
recommendation
here.
316
regarding
the
use
of
native
plants.
D
Dpr
currently
follows
a
native
plant
preferred
policy
for
public
sites,
and
this
recommendation
really
recommends
that
the
the
county
should
move
towards
a
native
plant
requirement
that
expands
the
use
and
retention
of
local
and
locally
and
regionally
native
plants.
D
We
developed
this
recommendation
in
close
coordination
with
cpd's
Urban
Design
and
comp
planning
teams
and
staff
across
DPR,
and
it's
also
accompanied
by
a
new
appendix
laying
out
the
draft
native
plant
standard,
which
includes
a
list
of
definitions
and
requirements,
and
it's
just
intended
to
be
a
bit
of
a
Kickstart
for
implementation,
because
we
we
felt
that
both
from
our
own
analysis
and
what
we
heard
from
the
public,
this
was
a
really
high
priority
for
the
community
and
then,
lastly,
strategic
direction
for
operations.
D
Aside
from
some
streamlining
and
some
heavier
cross,
referencing,
with
the
recommendations
I've
already
discussed,
the
only
major
change
I
wanted
to
briefly
touch
on
is
is
on
this
slide
4.1.4.
Previously.
This
was
a
pretty
narrow
recommendation
directing
us
to
report
to
the
county
board
on
the
number
of
trees
in
the
county
that
we
were
tracking
through
development
permits.
D
Essentially,
we've
now
broadened
that
to
incorporate
progress,
reporting
on
tree
Equity
goals
articulated
in
strategic
direction
to
and
then
other
metrics
described
in
action
4.1
one
to
make
it
more
comprehensive,
and
then
I
mentioned
earlier
that
this,
inter
this
iteration
of
the
draft,
includes
our
implementation
plan.
Each
recommendation
in
the
plan
is
included
in
the
table,
along
with
some
highlevel
details
about
proposed
timing,
responsible
parties,
meaning
County
agencies,
potential,
Partners
planning
level,
cost
estimates
and
potential
funding
sources.
D
We
might
want
to
examine,
as
we
move
towards
implementation,
we're
essentially
using
the
same
format
and
scales
for
time
frame
and
cost
estimates
that
we
use
for
the
public
spaces
master
plan
here
and
on
the
online
comment
form
if
you
haven't
already
tuned
into
that,
we
have
a
whole
section
dedicated
to
the
implementation
plan
and,
as
I
mentioned
before,
as
one
of
the
new
elements,
I
really
looking
forward
to
hearing
your
all's
feedback
on
it,
and
that
leads
us
into
the
last
portion
of
the
new
material.
The
priority
actions.
D
Excuse
me
this
initial
selection
of
10
priority
actions
was
compiled
by
the
project
team
and
was
selected
to
emphasize
the
major
changes.
The
fnrp
recommends
over
our
current
policy
and
practice
highlight
our
Equity
Equity
recommendations
and
Elevate
the
actions
that
staff
felt
would
be
most
impa
impactful
and,
lastly,
to
reflect
what
we
heard
through
our
last
round
of
community
engagement,
about
where
the
community's
priorities
are
in
the
interest
of
preserving
some
of
your
discussion
time.
D
I'm
going
to
refrain
from
reading
these
at
you
and
just
pause
here
to
to
let
you
all
take
a
look
and
get
a
quick
overview,
and
then
you
know,
transition
to
the
next
five.
A
D
Okay
and
then
moving
to
our
last
five
as
I
said,
we're
we're
particularly
interested
in
folks
feedback
on
the
priority
actions
and
the
implementation
plan.
As
we
move
through
our
engagement.
D
Process
so
with
that
I'd
like
to
transition
to
our
engagement
and
next
steps,
as
I
mentioned
this
time,
around
we've
had
a
30-day
engagement
period
that
will
close
on
June
30th.
So
we
have
four
days
left
well,
four,
if
you're
a
night,
owl
I,
suppose
it's
already
late
in
the
the
day-
and
it
includes
an
online
comment
form.
So
please
share
that
that
link
with
your
networks.
D
If
you
haven't
already
and
comment
yourselves
if
you
haven't
dug
into
it,
we've
also
hosted
an
in-person
open
house
on
the
14th
at
lber
run
offered
a
less
formal
setting
for
folks
to
interact
with
the
project
team,
discuss
questions
and
comments
on
the
draft.
D
We
had
a
really
good
turnout
and
we're
we're
looking
forward
to
analyzing
all
the
written
comments
we
received
there
we're
additionally
hosting
two
digital
office
hours,
which
are
an
even
less
formal
sort
of
dropin
opportunity
for
folks
to
interact
with
the
project
team
and
bring
their
questions
and
comments
on
the
draft.
D
The
first
was
this
afternoon
and
the
second
will
be
Wednesday
morning:
the
the
dates
and
teams
links
for
those
are
on
the
project
web
page
and
then
finally,
we've
briefed
all
of
our
commissions,
starting
with
enag
Parks
and
Rec,
commission,
forestry
and
Natural
Resources
Commission,
and
then
closing
with
you
all
this
evening
and
just
in
terms
of
next
steps,
as
I
said
we're
in
the
midst
of
our
engagement.
D
So
our
immediate
next
steps
are
to
keep
rolling,
making
sure
we
meet
the
bring
this
before
the
broadest
amount
of
folks
possible
and
then
we'll
spend
the
rest
of
the
analyzing
that
feedback
and
making
edits
and
updates
to
the
draft
to
incorporate
what
we've
heard.
Ultimately,
as
I
said,
we're
aiming
to
bring
the
draft
before
the
board
this
winter
and
the
intermediate
step
would
be
a
request
to
advertise.
This
fall.
So,
hopefully
I
didn't
move
too
fast
happy
to
turn
it
back
over
to
you
all
for
for
your
discussion
and
I'm
here.
For
any.
H
Have
as
I
think
we
talked
about
it,
the
interj
is,
is
is
given
the
short
time
frame
is
actually
getting
any
written
comments
is
a
bit
of
a
challenge,
so
we'll
use
this
opportunity
to
share
some
of
our
comments
and
if
we
can
follow
through
more
formally
the
letter
after
our
July.
R
Comments,
one
of
the
action
items
that
you
had,
that
of
10
was
acquisition
of
land.
And
could
you
address
a
little
bit
about
what
the
criteria
might
be
for
a
land
acquisition
that
you
emply.
D
Sure
the
land
acquisition
criteria
are
actually
articulated
in
the
public
spaces
master
plan
which
governs
the
sort
of
land
acquisition
program
there
are
and
see,
rather
than
explore
them
from
memory.
I
can
I
can
pull
them
up
very
quickly.
Really.
What
we're
recommending
in
this
document
is
an
sort
of
an
additional
focus
on
the
natural
resources
set
of
criteria
which
were
around
protecting
sensitive
or
unique
species
or
ecosystems,
and
buffering
those
by
you
know
seeking
land
Acquisitions
around
or
adjacent
to
our
natural
resource
conservation.
D
The
the
major
change
or
the
additional
sort
of
bullet
point
that
we're
recommending
with
this
version
of
the
draft
over
the
sort
of
our
our
standard
natural
resource
acquisition
requirements,
is
to
to
take
a
look
at
even
smaller
Parcels
than
the
public
spaces.
D
Master
plan
recommends
recognizing
that
those,
whether
they're
on
their
own,
like
the
micr
forest
projects,
that
I've
referenced
or
if
they're
part
of
a
identified
Corridor,
can
contribute
significant
ecosystem
services
or
provide
habitat
for
migratory
species
in
in
particular,
and
may
offer
an
opportunity
for
taking
a
look
at
green
infrastructure
that
may
help
with
Urban
heat
island
and
storm
water
management,
so
that
that's
kind
of
the
new
development
with
the
fnrp.
The
rest
of
the
natural
resource
criteria
is
much
more
traditional
sort
of
landscape
conservation.
R
So
the
point
is
one
of
the
new
things.
Is
this
link
to
let's
say
a
storm
water
issue
or
Urban
he
island
is
that's
would
be
a
new.
D
Component,
yes
and
I
I
don't
want
to
characterize
it
only
in
those
terms.
It's
also.
We
have
a
lot
of
recommendations,
particularly
in
strategic
Direction,
three
around
creating
habitat
corridors
and
exploring
connectivity
between
between
the
nodes
of
public
lands
and
resource
conservation
areas
we
already
have
so
we
want
to
I
I
want
to
be
clear
to
state
that
the
small,
even
the
smaller
Acquisitions,
that
we're
recommending
examining
or
exploring
in
this
document
would
contribute
to
that
goal,
as
well
as
to
Urban
heat,
island
and
and
storm
water.
N
Mitigation
just
one
question:
I,
like
your
priority
actions,
especially
the
ones
that
are
more
quantitative,
but
second
one
there.
It
would
be
helpful
to
have
a
baseline
70%
of
Arling
trees,
originally
it
by
235.
Where
are
we
now,
but
the
first
one
it
it
seems
like
maintain.
40%
seems
like
we're
at
40%
we're
going
to
just
stick
with
it,
so
you
don't
need
the
Baseline.
Second,
one
certainly
could
use
use
a
baseline.
D
Sure
and
I'm
happy
to
follow
up
with
our
Urban
Forester
to
get
this
100%
correct,
but
we're
in
the
vicinity
of
of
60%
I
believe
now.
So
it's
a
a
challenging
but
doable
goal.
I.
Think
and
again,
our
urban
forestry
supervisor
vinit
will
will
probably
castigate
me
for
this,
but
I
believe
it
was
in
the
the
region
of
four
to
6
thousand
individual
trees
that
would
native
trees.
D
E
Great
I,
I
I
have
a
couple
comments
and,
following
up
on
that
one,
it
occurs
to
me.
What
could
be
really
useful
is
on
priority,
particularly
on
the
priority
actions,
but
actually
on
all
of
the
I'm,
forgetting
exactly
what
the
hierarchy
is.
But
the
actions
where
there
are
quantitative
goals
have
a
baseline,
create
a
chart
that
has
the
Baseline
and
what's
what's
the
aspiration
or
what's
the
target.
E
Shows
up
in
a
neat
package
it
it's!
You
know:
it's
puzzling,
I,
I
I
see
an
on
a
certain
page,
a
statement
that
the
targets
set
in
this
policy
will
be
reviewed
every
five
years
and
and
I
kind
of
thought
to
me.
But
where
is
even
the
target
section
I,
don't
see
a
Target
section,
I,
don't
see
a
metric
section.
E
I
I
I
took
good
advantage
of
the
find
function
on
on
searching
documents
and
I
search
for
metrics
and
targets,
and
you
know
it
it
doesn't
that
doesn't
jump
out
at
you.
Moving
on
to
some
other
comments
and
I
just
like
to
say
generally
I
think
you've
done.
H
E
Phenomenal
job,
it's
a
really
lovely
document
it
you
did
a
great
job,
Improvement
on
the
equity
and
biophilia
and
many
things.
But
this
is
I'm
going
to
make
kind
of
a
meta
comment
that
I
I
find
puzzling
in
reading
it
and
it
has
to
do
with
voice
and
tone.
You
know
until
you
get
to
the
the
actual
action
plan,
which
I
can't
recall
whether
it's
the
last
thing
before
the
appendix
the
appendices
or
it's
actually
in
the
appendix.
E
But
reading
it
I
don't
feel
like
I
know
what
Arlington
County
is
committing
to
it's.
The
tone
is
very
tenative
and
I
I
actually
again
did
a
a
search
and
I
saw
that
the
phrase
the
county
should
shows
up
39
times
and
the
county
will
shows
up
once
and
it
sounds
that
the
begin.
The
whole
major
text
before
you
get
to
the
details
either
in
the
appendix
or
right
before
it
sounds
like
it's
still
in
the
voice
of
the
Consultants
who.
E
You
know
this
is
what
the
county
should
do,
that
it's
like
they're,
not
taking
responsibility,
because
it's
maybe
not
a
consultant's
role
to
speak
in
the
voice
of
the
county,
but
now
it
needs
to
be
converted
into
the
V,
the
voice
of
the
county
that
Arlington,
County
will
or
Arling
County
will
aspire
to.
If
you
feel
like
there's
some
some
uncertainty
or
some
difficulty,
that's
just
a
comment:
I'm
somebody
throughout
my
professional
career
who
prepared
lots
and
lots
of
strategies-
and
this
is
puzzling
to
me-
this
kind
of
U
wishy-washy
voice.
E
So
just
an
observation,
I
I'm
going
to
provide
some
separate,
smaller
comments.
But
otherwise
you
know
a
lot
of
tons
of
great
work
has
gone
into
this
and
lots
of
great
consultation
with
public,
so
Kudos
kudos
to
your
team
and
to
you
for
that.
D
Great
thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
and
and
I
appreciate
any
of
the
the
critical
feedback,
especially
the
as
we
get
the
details.
I
do
I
will
I
will
try
to
address
the
the
tone
comment
that
you
bring
up
because
I
think
it's
I
think
it's
instructive
a
little
bit.
This
is
something
that
we've
struggled
with.
I
know
struggle
is,
maybe
not
even
the
right
word,
I
think
trying
to
find
a
way
to
articulate
this.
The
best
way
possible
part
of
this
is
an
artifact
of
where
this
plan
sits
in
the
County's
planning
hierarchy.
D
So,
as
a
a
comp
plan
element,
it's
policy
guidance,
it's
articulation
of
priorities
and
the
long
the
long
story
is.
The
short
version
of
this
story
is,
if
you
have
the
page
number
Citation
for
where
it
says
the
county
will.
I
should
probably
check
on
that.
H
K
E
D
Yeah
the
the
county,
the
county
should
sort
of
framing
is
the
guidance
that
we've
been
getting
from
the
county
attorney
in
terms
of
how
to
frame
the
policy.
E
D
Is
a
plan
but
where
it
sits
in
the
County's
planning
hierarchy.
The
comp
planel
is
a
a
policy
document
that
articulates
the
county
priorities
that
then
through
decision-making
tools
like
the
budget
process,
need
to
be
balanced
by
the
County
Board
and
commissions
like
yourselves,
so
the
that
type
of
language
is
sort
of
an
artifact
of
where
that
sits
in
in
the
County's
planning
hierarchy.
The
public
spaces
master
plan
has
a
similar
tone
in
terms
of
its
action
verbs.
Now
that's
sort
of
the
context.
D
If
there
are
places
where
you
all
feel
it
can
be
made
stronger
or
that
is
not
clearly
articulated.
I
need
to
know
that
too
so.
I
I
don't
mean
that,
to
you
know,
squash
further
discussion
in
this
in
this
direction
or
or
to
like
quibble
with
the
criticism.
D
It's
just
we're
sort
of
walking
a
fine
line,
I
think
in
how
we
have
to
phrase
this
as
a
policy
document
and
not,
for
example,
as
a
Department's
work
plan,
or
an
adopted
County
budget
document,
for
example,
and
so
that
that's
that's
some
of
the
source
of
that
uncertainty
and
in
verbage.
E
H
A
H
F
H
Losing
ground
on
the
metrics
I
to
me,
I
think
you
with
is
curious,
is
that's.
Probably
the
greatest
weakness
is
I.
Think
with
every
strategic
Direction
there
see
there
should
be
a
number
of
of
measurable
metrics
in
going
Beyond
tree
can
just
you
know,
percentage
of
tree
canopy
which,
by.
H
Under
40%
anyway,
so
we've
got
some
ground
to
make
up,
but
you
know
disaggregated,
especially
in
areas
where
we're
looking
at
the
equity,
but
there
should
be
a
whole
range
of
of
host
of
things
that
measure
the
health
of
of
our
natural
resources
in
our
tree.
H
It
tells
me
absolutely
nothing
about
what
was
accomplished
as
the
result
of
those
two
plans
that
there
there
needs
to
be
some
other
columns
or
there
needs
to
be
a
reporting
process
that
you
know
every
year,
every
two
years
you'll
give
you'll
go
through
and
say
exactly
what
you've
done
and
how
you
you
know
what
you've
accomplished
and
in
meeting
all
of
the
Strategic
actions,
so
that
you
know
you
kind
of
could
get
a
sense
of
of
what
actually
is
happening
and
going
on
and
at.
A
H
Of
the
time
when
it
comes
to
renewing
that
we
can
step
back
and
say
where
we've
made
progress
and
where
we
haven't,
and
ultimately
it
will
be
those
metrics
that
say
you
know
our
water
quality
is
improved.
We've
gotten
rid
of
a
lot
more
invasives,
you
know,
and
in
the
overall
health
of
our
ecosystems
we
expand.
You
know,
kind
of
you
know,
targets
there
that
that
meet
across
the
board.
H
H
It's
just
got
to
be
be
called
out
and
you've
already
got
the
deer
study
and
Survey
that
you
know
we
know
it's
a
problem,
let's
just
let's,
let's
just
name
it
and
then
I
thought,
maybe
some
of
the
things
just
like
on
the
development
standards.
I
think
that's
excellent.
That's
absolutely
crucial.
If
we're
going
to
really
kind
of
get
a
hold
of
having
space.
H
To
put
things
but
I
think,
there's
also
embedded
throughout
the
plan
in
not
as
much
detail
issues
of
just
various
tax
incentives,
conservation,
trust,
other
things
that
are
kind
of
alluded
to,
at
least
that
you
know
it's,
maybe
not
just
development
standards,
but
developing
a
very
robust
toolkit
that
that
helps
drive
it
is,
is
the
kind
of
a
critical
action
that
the
county,
the
county,
should
be
thinking
about.
H
Just
you
know,
kind
of
whatever
kinds
of
in
set
of
tool
that
we
can
come
up
with,
that
can
work
together,
collectively
is
important,
and
then
the
the
final
thing
for
me
was
on
the
volunteer
is,
you
know,
basically
really
highlight
the
value
that
volunteers
are
already
bringing
to
the
community
and
again
I
think
that
priority
can
be
broadened.
It's
it's.
The
theme
that
comes
throughout
the
throughout
the
plan
is
that
volunteers
are
just
so
crucial
in
helping
with
implementation
of
a.
A
H
J
Completely
agree
with
everything
you
just
said:
Joan,
you
know
I
made
some
notes
here.
So
one
of
the
goals
is
Equitable
access
to
the
benefits
of
Arlington's
tree
canopy
and
natural
lands,
but
it
was
unclear
to
me
like
how
would
you
measure
that?
What
what's
the
actual
goal
for
Equitable
access-
and
you
know,
I-
think
it's
important,
because
this
document
is
replacing
two
other
plans
from
2012
and.
J
Whoa,
yeah,
okay,
so
it's
going
to
live
on
for
a
long
time
and
I
think
greater
specificity
to
me
is
is
is
needed
when
I
read
things
like
enhanced
development
standards.
My
we
could
have
a
very
different
interpretation
of
what
enhan
me
so
I
I
I,
like
the
the
more
quantifiable
metrics
and
I,
think
it's
important
to
be
not
just
aspirational
in.
A
J
D
J
Oh,
it's
about
specificity,
monitoring
and
evaluation
to
hold
ourselves
accountable
for
things
like
Equitable.
H
E
H
H
Know
a
lot
I
mean
we
have
the
data,
especially
on
Urban
heat
Islands,
in
what
what
communities
are
most
effective
in
those
also
tend
to
be
ones
that
that
tend
to
be.
You
know,
kind
of
lower
income
communities
of
color.
In
that,
so
you
know,
we
can
identify
particular
neighborhoods
that
we
want
to
see.
H
D
Yeah,
yeah,
and-
and
that
is
one
of
the
so
all
of
those
things
that
you
mentioned-
were
data
inputs
into
the
tree,
Equity
analysis,
which
highlights
those
the
sort
of
five
communities
that
are
have
the
least
access
to
the
benefits
of
tree
canopy
in
particular.
But
it's
measuring
things
like
not
just
tree
canopy
but
U.
The
urban
heat
island
effect,
social
determinance
of
Health,
actual
Health
outcomes.
Things
like
that.
D
So
one
of
the
cautions
that
we've
had
in
in
framing
this
is
that
or
framing
say,
a
a
like
a
floor
for
a
tree.
Canopy,
for
example,
in
certain
neighborhoods,
is
that
we
do
feel
as
an
equity
measure
discussing
how
those
communities
might
be
enhanced
in
terms
of
like
Street
trees
or
green
infrastructure
or
future
Green.
Space
needs
to
be
a
community
by
Community
conversation.
So
part
of
what
we've
done
with
the
plan
is
kind
of
assess.
D
The
existing
conditions
performed
that
initial
tree
canopy
analysis
highlighted
the
five
neighborhoods
that
are
sort
of
suffering
from
the
worst
deficit,
from
the
benefits
of
of
trees
and
access
to
Nature
and
then
articulated
that
these
are
the
communities
we
want
to
engage
with.
D
Next,
to
figure
out
what
what
the
community's
preferred
solutions
to
that
lack
are
so
there's
there's
sort
of
a
deliberate
lack
of
specificity
in
in
that
regard,
because,
as
part
of
the
planning
process,
we
didn't
have
the
capacity
to
really
go
super
deep
and
involved
engagement
for
specific
neighborhoods.
It
is
sort
of
a
countywide
guiding
document,
so
that
is
a
bit
of
an
artifact
of
the
approach.
D
But
I
I
take
your
point
broadly
and
I
don't
mean
to
sound
argumentative
I
just
wanted
to
articulate
kind
of
where
we
were
coming
from
and
why
for
for,
for
std2
2.1.1
in
particular,
there's
maybe
less
detail
or
less
quantitative
metrics
than
than
we
might
want
to
see,
and
it
it's
strictly
because
we
want
to
engage
with
those
communities.
D
Yeah,
absolutely,
and-
and
on
that
note
too
just
for
context-
the,
for
example,
the
public
spaces
master
plan.
We
do
report
annually
to
the
public
spaces
I'm,
going
to
butcher
this,
the
psmp
IAC,
the
public,
the
public
spaces
master
plan
implementation
action
committee.
The
enag
tends
to
serve
that
role
for
us
at
least
going
through
this
process
and
serve
it's
that
role
previously
for
implementation
of
the
natural
resources
management
plan,
which
is
one
of
the
precursors
to
this
document.
D
Our
intent
is
to
follow
through
on
that
model,
whether
we
need
to
reexamine
you
know
if
there
needs
to
be
a
special
committee
specific
to
this
document
or
if
enj
or
fnrc
can
continue
serving
in
that
role.
That's
that's
one
of
the
mechanisms
for
accountability,
an
implementation
reporting
that
we
typically
follow.
You
know
quarterly
or
ad
hoc
meetings
with
annual
reporting
up
to
that
implementation
committee.
So
just
for
for
some
background
on.
H
Process
anybody
else
have
any
comments.
What
I
did
kind
of
reading
through
the
biophilia
guide?
I
think
that's,
maybe
a
good
start,
but
might
want
to
continue
to
look
at
the
language.
I
wasn't
quite
sure,
I
fully
understood.
Ultimately,
what
what
it
looks.
A
H
H
E
O
Yes,
I
am
chair,
McIntyre,
Vice,
chair
Thompson
and
Commissioners
good
evening.
Thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
present
this
evening
on
the
Arlington
Transit
Str
strategic
plan,
the
draft
service
recommendations.
This
is
the
culmination
of
months
and
months
of
work
to
get
to
this
point
that
where
we
can
make
our
recommendations
to
improve
and
make
Arlington
Transit
better
for
a
transit
system
that
we
all
can
use
for
all
of
our
daily
lives.
O
There's
several
of
us
from
the
transit
team
on
the
call
today,
I'll
start
off
the
presentation
and
I'll
pass
it
over
to
Paul
M
and
then
we'll
be
ready
to
fill
some
questions
so
Paul.
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
please.
O
Please
all
right-
and
this
just
kind
of
went
over
the
agenda
from
when
we
had
our
public
meeting
back
on
last
Wednesday
June
21st.
This
just
get
kind
of
gives
you
all
a
overview
of
what
we
share
with
the
public
and
our
one
of
our
newest
Transit
Champions,
chair
McIntyre
was
a
part
of
that
call,
so
she
was
very
fully
aware
of
our
almost
hour
and
a
half
two
hour
presentation.
So
Paul,
could
you
go
to
our
next
slide.
O
Please
so
in
interest
of
time,
I'll
just
get
through
the
my
slides
quickly,
so
that
Paul
can
go
more
in
depth
in
the
actual
recommend
the
draft
recommendations.
What
is
a
Transit
strategic
plan?
Why
are
we
doing
this?
What
got
us
to
this
point
and
what
the
expected
outcome,
of
course,
Arlington
Transit,
is
always
looking
to
commit,
make
a
commitment
to
continually
improving
the
service
at
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
Our
current
Transit
Strate,
our
Transit
development
plan-
excuse
me
that
was
covering
the
six-year
planning.
O
Horizon
is
now
expiring
and
because
Arlington
County
is
an
urbanized
area
and
operates
a
fleet
of
equal
to
or
greater
than
20
buses.
The
Virginia
Department
of
rail
and
public
transportation,
Arlington
Transit,
qualifies
to
do
a
PSP,
which
is
a
Transit
strategic
plan.
Of
course,
I
previously
mentioned
that
this
is
a
state
funded.
A
state
funded
and
mandated
update
process
expected
outcome.
We
are
looking
to
better
understand
the
community
needs
and
opportunities
to
maximize
investment
in
transit
in
Arlington
County
next
slide.
Please.
O
Paul
how
we
got
here
over
the
since
the
summer
of
2022,
going
on
a
year
now,
we've
done
an
evaluation,
looked
at
the
entire
system
top
to
bottom
throughout
and
also
engaged
the
public
and
spoke
with
the
board
members
just
to
get
their
sense
of
what
they
think
Arling
to
Transit
should
be
and
get
passengers
and
non-p
passengers
experiences.
We
did
our
current
conditions.
Evaluations
during
the
summer
of
2022
did
a
robust
public
engagement
which
we'll
talk
about
on
the
next
slide.
O
Please
SP
public
engagement
during
the
fall
of
2022.
As
I
previously
mentioned,
we
received
383
comments
from
244
individuals,
including
an
online
feedback
form
where
folks
could
answer
questions
something
on
on
lines
of
what
is
the
most
important.
What
is
most
important
to
you
when
you
choose
Transit
and
folks
gave
us
answers
as
you
can
see
what
our
key
themes
were,
and
we
also
had
eight
popup
events
throughout
Arlington
County.
O
If
you
look
at
the
picture,
the
top
right
hand,
corner
you'll,
see
two
of
the
transit
staff
there
that
were
engaging
the
public
and
receiving
their
feedback,
and
then
there's
a
another
picture
there,
just
underneath
of
their
picture
of
people,
just
putting
orange
dots
and
just
giving
their
comments
on
what
is
most
important
to
them.
Key
themes,
of
course,
frequency
and
reliability.
Even
with
your
personal
Transportation
needs,
you
want
to
be
able
to
use
it
when
you
want
to
so
folks
that
responded.
O
They
want
the
buses
and
trains
to
come
frequently,
and
they
also
want
the
buses
and
trains
to
come
close
to
where
they
live
and
where
they're
going
I'll
bring
to
you.
All's
attention,
environmental
and
Equity
considerations.
O
This
key
theme
talked
about
environmental
considerations
and
comments
here
really
tended
to
be
more
toward
people
riding
and
using
transit
to
help,
and
they
talked
oh
excuse
me,
transit
to
help
the
environment,
and
then
it
also
in
this
Equity
considerations
just
talked
about
how
Transit
provides
a
level
of
equity
for
those
that
may
not
have
other
means
to
have
transportation.
It
allows
them
to
continue
to
do
the
things
they
want
to
do
and
create
a
sense
of
Independence.
O
Finally,
you'll
see
here,
system,
design,
infrastructure,
safety
and
accessibility
and
then,
finally,
on
environmental,
there
were
some
comments
about
battery
electric
buses.
If
you're
interested
and
you'd
like
to
see
a
full
summary
of
the
comments
and
the
key
themes
is
available
at
arlingtonva.us
us
back,
SL
atsp
next
slide,
please
Paul
what
we
learned
during
the
fall
and
the
winter
of
2022,
with
the
gaps
and
needs
analysis.
If
you
look
at
the
graphic
to
your
right,
you
will
see
10
circles
in
these
areas
that
are
circled
with
throughout
the
county.
O
These
may
be
your
neighborhoods
or
you
might
have
friends
and
family
members
that
live
in
these
neighborhoods,
where
we
realized
in
doing
our
analysis
of
an
izing,
Transit,
oriented
population,
propensity,
ridership
population
growth,
job
growth
and
looking
at
the
equity
index.
We
realized
that
these
areas
circled
had
medium
Gap,
medium
or
high
gaps
of
where
there
of
Transit,
where
there
was
no
transit
or
there
was
very
little
Transit.
O
So
some
of
those
and
I'm
sorry
Miss,
Len
I,
know
you
were
looking
a
little
closer.
Some
of
those
are
Boulevard
Manor,
Green,
Valley
and
Waverly
Hills.
Of
course
all
this
will
be
available
online,
but
this
these
yellow
circles
that
you
see
correlate
to
the
total
gaps
on
there
right.
So
all
of
the
neighborhoods
that
are
there
to
the
left
where
Paul
has
the
Paul
has
the
cursor
are
the
neighborhoods
that
where
we
noticed
there
were
lots
of
gaps
and
needs
for
more
robust
Transit
next
slide,
please
Paul!
O
So,
based
on
all
of
that,
the
input
from
the
public
during
the
fall
of
22,
the
demographic
and
bus
system
analysis,
the
review
of
Industry
Trends
across
the
country
and
the
state
of
goals
of
Arlington
transit
in
Arlington.
After
months
and
months
of
evaluation
reviewing
documents,
public
feedback,
it
is
very
clear
and
before
I
get
to
the
punch
line.
I
think
Jonathan
has
a.
B
Question
just
real
quick
on
the
previous
slide,
so
the
the
the
the
dark
green
means
that
there
are
problems
right
so
I
mean
if
I'm
reading
this
correctly
there's
a
you
know
when
it
says
that
Crystal
City
has
a
high
a
gap.
Do
I
mean
the
fact
that
it
says
a
high
Equity
index.
B
Does
that
mean
that,
like
am
I
reading
that
correctly,
that
that
there
there's
a
major
Equity
issue
or
what
does
it
mean
to
have
a
high
Equity
index.
S
The
way
the
Gap
analysis
was
done,
it
was
done
with
a
byari
analysis
that
compared
certain
variables
against
the
amount
of
Transit,
so
if
there
was
an
area
that
had
a
High
population
of
lowincome
minority
people
and
a
low
amount
of
transit
in
that
area
than
that
was
identified
as
an
equity
Gap
now,
as
you
understand,
Crystal
City
does
have
a
lot
of
transit
in
it,
but
that
is
primarily
filled
by
wada
service.
S
So
this
is,
these
are
where
gaps
in
the
art
service
are,
and
really
this
was
to
focus.
These
were
areas
that
we
wanted
to
focus
on.
B
I
I
I!
No,
but
what
what
I'm
talking
about
in
the
table
to
the
left
right
under
the
equity
index?
You
have
a
lot
of
high
dark,
green
high
I
I'm,
not
sure
what
what?
What
does
this
mean
high
low,
medium
I
understand
on
the
the
far
right
column,
it's
clear
what
what
that
means,
but
the
other
columns.
It's
not
clear!
What
high
medium
low.
S
Means,
okay
again
it
was
a
b
variant
analysis.
Okay,
so
we
took
job
growth
and
we
looked
at
job
growth
across
the
county
and
then
we
said:
okay,
you
have
this
percentage
of
job
growth
across
the
county.
How
much
Transit
is
being
provided
to
that
area?
And
then
I
said?
Is
that
equal
is
it
above
average
or
below
average
for
what
we're
providing
across
the
rest
of
the
county?
S
So
there's
a
lot
of
job
growth
in
Crystal
City,
but
there
isn't
as
much
Transit
in
relation
to
that
percentage
across
the
rest
of
the.
B
S
O
Okay,
thank
you
for
that
question.
Great
question:
Jonathan
So,
based
on
all
of
that
we've
looked
at
the
recommendation
is
that,
and
it
is
very
clear
that
all
transs
must
seek
to
operate
higher
frequency.
What
we
mean
by
higher
frequency
is
we
mean
that
the
buses
need
to
come
more
often,
so
that
persons
can
use
it
for
longer
periods
of
the
day.
It
need
to
stay
out
out
there
longer
instead
of
May,
maybe
5:00
a.m.
to
10:
p.m.
maybe
5:00
a.m.
to
midnight,
with
more
Peak
service
off
peak
and
on
weekends.
O
In
the
transit
vernacular
off
peak
is
the
periods
we
consider
the
Peaks
6:00
a.m.
to
9:00
a.m.
which
were
traditional,
Peaks,
preo
and
then
400
p.m.
to
700
p.m.
Monday
through
Friday,
when
in
a
more
traditional
work,
setting
folks
were
commuting
to
work
and
then
commuting
from
work.
O
So
we
need
to
do
all
of
these
things
across
all
of
Arlington
Transit
next
slide,
please
Paul
our
strategic
plan,
key
objectives,
looking
at
the
very
bottom,
one,
first
improving
service
for
all
Arlington
residents,
which
is
ties
right
back
to
the
previous
slide:
alignment
with
new
travel
patterns,
Consolidated
routes
for
travel,
Simplicity
connected
to
new
key
locations
in
Arlington,
as
Paul
gets
into
the
recommendations.
You'll
see
a
point
where
there's
going
to
be
new
service
to
Longbridge
Park
and
then
meeting
evolving
Pat
schedules,
which
ties
back
to
the
previous
slide
as
well.
O
Paul,
so
we'll
just
I'll
just
take
this
slide
from
the
top
left
and
go
around
what
you're
going
to
see.
If
we,
if
all
of
the
10
years
worth
of
recommendations
were
implemented,
there
would
be
an
total
increased
service
hours
of
6251
which,
across
the
entire
system,
would
be
a
34
in
34%
increase
and
I
would
bring
your
attention,
especially
to
Sunday,
with
the
all
of
the
10
years
worth
of
recommendations
that
Paul
will
go
over
in
a
few
moments
were
implemented.
O
G
That
in
graphical
yes,
I'm,
sorry
to
interrupt
you,
it's
Demetri
very
quickly,
can
you
and
Paul
and
Pierre
just
put
and
Lynn
a
pin
in.
We
did
have
a
question
earlier
this
week
from
members
of
c22
about
whether
or
not
we're
measuring
the
greenhouse
gas
impact
of
that
so
I
spoke
with
Drew
and
and
the
Air
Team
about
that
and
and
he's
happy
to
work
with
you
guys
on
that
it
shouldn't
take
too
much
too
much
time
or
effort.
O
Thank
you
for
doing
that.
Demetri
appreciate
apprciate
that
current
service
hours
181,000.
Currently
it
would
go
up
to
2
244,000
total
increase
of
annual
operating
costs.
We
would
there
would
be
an
increase
of
$7.3
million
per
year
if
all
the
implementation,
all
of
the
service
recommendations
were
implemented.
Let's
say
we
implemented
them
all.
O
S
Yours
good
evening
again,
thank
you
for
letting
us
come
and
present
this
our
proposal
for
the
improvements
to
the
Arlington
County
Transit
Service
little
pre
preliminary
overview
of
the
plan.
You
can
see
the
the
proposed
net
work
with
wada
service
existing
wada
service
L.
Underneath
the
network.
You
can
see
that
there
is
a
lot
of
w
service.
S
It's
something
that
we
always
have
to
keep
in
mind
that
we
do
have
a
lot
of
regional
service
that
brings
people
from
outside
the
county
to
the
county,
to
work
or
through
the
county
to
go
to
DC.
So
I
think
that
illustrates
it
very
well
here.
Just
a
high
level
overview,
there's
two
new
Roots
that
we're
proposing
in
this
plan
to
strengthen
connectivity,
we're
looking
to
replace
underperforming
Roots
with
a
revamped
network.
S
That
means
that
we're
taking
some
of
our
underperforming
roots
and
we're
combining
them
into
some
of
our
better
performing
rots
to
help
increase
the
span
and
frequency
of
those
roots.
Simplified
schedules,
most
roots
to
work,
run
on
a
a
clockface
Headway.
U
meaning
that
we
would
like
the
bus,
come
every
30
minutes,
every
15
minutes
every
10
minutes,
instead
of
like
every
23
minutes.
S
One
trip
16
minutes,
another
trip
so
that
there
is
a
routine
and
predictability
in
the
schedule,
extend
the
service
hours
to
meet
customer
requests
for
art,
art
Service,
particularly
what
we
heard
mostly
is
evening
and
midday
Service
along
with
week
service,
so
all
those
instead
of
the
traditional
Peak
period
service,
to
get
commuters
to
work
looking
at
those
off
off
peak
hours
and
just
service
standards
to
match
new
travel
patterns.
S
In
reality,
our
service
standards
today
were
created
back
in
2016
with
the
change
caused
by
the
pandemic.
There
has
been
changes
in
people's
travel
patterns
and
we
want
to
match
our
service
to
what
people
and
how
people
will
use
the
service
today
and
in
the
future.
Some
anticipated
outcomes,
imp,
improv
service
to
key
destinations,
we're
making
connections
from
the
north
part
of
the
County
to
Crystal
City.
S
That
was
identified
as
a
gap
in
service
simpler
network,
with
more
direct
routing
trying
to
particularly
in
the
South
part
of
the
County
cleaning
up
confusing
line
that
had
a
bunch
of
different
branches
off
of
it.
S
Consolidating
that
making
it
easier
to
understand,
efficient
and
equ
Equitable
dis,
distribution
of
Transit
and
resources
increasing
service
in
areas
that
we
know
that
there
are
Equity
populations
and
making
sure
that
that
we
are
also
providing
service
to
to
all
parts
of
the
county,
so
that
people
that
don't
necessarily
that
that
have
other
opportunities
for
travel
such
as
their
own,
they
own
a
vehicle
that
they
can
make
the
choice
to
get
onto
Transit
a
and
start
using
Transit,
and
to
provide
more
convenient
and
reliable
Service
on
off
peak
hours
and
weekends,
again,
primarily
increasing
the
span
of
service
and
making
sure
that
there
is
a
minimum
frequency
that
that
we
will
be
running
in
this
plan.
S
The
minimum
frequency
that
we
will
run
on
a
fixed
rout
transit
route
is
30
minutes.
We
believe
that
that
is
the
the
the
yeah
anything
over
that
just
it
does
not
become
reliable.
It
does
not
become.
S
Convenient
and
we
have
broken
the
county
up
into
three
areas:
the
north,
the
the
southern
part
and
the
Pentagon
City
area,
North
Arlington.
This
is
where
some
of
the
most
major
changes
most
drastic
changes
are
taking
place
in
the
north
county.
We
have
had
some
typically
lower
performing
routes
compared
to
the
rest
of
the
network.
It
is
due
to
the
land
use
pattern
up
here.
S
It
is
not
necessarily
favorable
for
Transit,
but
again,
we
believe
that
we
need
to
provide
service
through
the
whole
day
at
a
minimum
frequency
of
30
minutes.
I.
Think
that
that
is
when
we
talk
about
fixed
rout
Transit.
If,
if
you
cannot,
if
that
isn't
sustainable,
then
we
need
to
look
for
other
opportunities
and
I'll
be
talking
about
that
a
little
bit
as
we
get
to
the
end
of
this.
S
So
as
I
said,
we're
increasing
frequencies
and
all
day
service,
particularly
over
here,
the
61
and
62
have
been
a
particularly
low
performing
routes.
They
were
only
Peak
routes
that
ran
for
a
few
hours
in
the
morning,
a
few
hours
in
the
evening.
What
we
are
doing
is
we
are
removing
those
routes,
but
then
we
are
taking
a
couple
other
routs
that
we
have
and
we
are
providing
that
service
using
these
other
routes.
S
What
this
effectively
does
is
that
it
increases
the
the
frequency
along
these
routes
to
30
minutes
and
it
provides
a
span
of
service
of
all
day
so,
where
you
only
had
you
know
couple
hours
in
the
morning
couple
hours
in
the
evening
now
you
have
service
all
day
and
the
opportunity
to
get
on
the
U
bus
and
use
it
as
a
reliable
transportation,
consolidated
roots
to
improve
connections,
as
I
just
talked
about
that
taking
some
of
the
lower
performing
routs
and
attaching
them
to
better
performing
routes,
improve
access
to
Virginia,
Center,
Hospital,
Center,
Virginia,
Hospital
Center
becomes
kind
of
a
microtransit
Hub
for
lack
of
a
better
term.
S
Even
though
it's
an
on
Street
stop.
We
have
several
routes
that
will
meet
and
be
able
to
provide
transfers
to
connections
to
other
areas.
S
S
In
the
County
there
show
there
was
a
very
weak
connection
between
the
North
County
and
Crystal
City
via
bus
and
even
with
rail
you're,
making
a
transfer
at
Roslin
we're
extending
the
43
to
claran
and
now
that
provides
a
very
strong,
robust
connection
to
Crystal
City
from
the
north
county
and
hence
a
service
along
the
Rosland
Bolston
Metro
Corridor.
As
we
extended
these
routes
to
take
over
some
of
the
underperforming
route
as
extended
of
43
to
claran.
S
H
Have
some
time
for?
Could
you
move
a
little
bit
quicker?
So
we
actually
have
some
time
for
discussion.
I
think
you
know
the
Commissioners
can
actually
look
because
it's
kind
of
hard
to
absorb
you
know
the
changes
in
the
routes
and
I
think
we
can
all
look
at
at
the
Transit
study
and
make.
S
Okay,
I
I
I'll
definitely
move
faster.
I
do
want
to
take
a
little
bit
of
time
on
this
microtransit
area.
This
is
being
proposed,
as
I
said.
If,
if
you
can't
sustain
a
a
30
minute,
Headway
and
and
bus
service
all
day,
we
have
to
look
for
other
Alternatives.
What
we're
proposing
here
is
a
pilot
for
microtransit
or
on
demand
Transit.
This
would
be
more
of
a
curb
to
uhe
highfrequency
Transit
node,
so
we
may.
The
details
of
this
have
not
been
worked
out.
S
Yet
we've
been
looking
with
our
partners
at
what
they're
doing,
such
as
in
Prince,
William,
County
and
other
places
around
the
country
where
you
would
be
able
to
either
call
in
maybe
have
an
app
have
a
vehicle
come
to
your
house
or
to
very
close
to
your
house
in
your
neighborhood
and
take
you
to
maybe
East
Falls
Church
Virginia
hospital,
Center,
potentially
Boston
and
potentially
along
Langston
Boulevard
at
a
stop.
S
Where
there's
a
lot
of
services
that
come
together
all
right,
so
Columbia
Pike
enhancements
I'll
go
through
this
very
briefly.
Essentially
this
is
a
a
pretty
mature
part
of
our
service.
It's
a
very
productive
part
of
our
service.
We
are
in
increasing
frequencies
along
long
Columbia
Pike
to
leverage
the
premium
Transit
network,
we're
taking
the
74,
making
that
an
all
day
service
and
connecting
to
Crystal
City
and
Long
Branch
a
Longbridge
Aquatic
Center.
S
C
S
Charlington
transit
station-
essentially
this
is
our
one
major
transit
station
in
the
county
that
isn't
a
associated
with
a
rail
station.
We
meet
with
our
partners
here,
Metro
and
dash.
We
want
to
leverage
those
connections,
we're
proposing
an
express
route
during
the
a
peak.
S
The
84
will
be
the
only
route
that
remains
a
Peak
period
route
in
this
plan,
but
would
provide
that
express
service
during
the
peak
periods
to
Pentagon
City
Route
85,
a
new
route
that
will
connect
to
pic
yards.
We
feel
that
this
is
a
very
important
connection.
There
are
other
services
that
Metro
provides,
but
we
think
this
is
an
important
connection,
and
this
is
also
replacing
a
Gap
that
will
be
left
by
Metro
in
their
better
bus,
Design
Network.
S
They
remove
service
in
these
neighborhoods,
so
we
replacing
it
with
the
85.
S
Pentagon
City
and
Crystal
City
support
job
growth
and
Transit
propensity.
Obviously,
there's
a
lot
of
growth
going
on
in
Pentagon
City,
Crystal
City,
as
I
mentioned.
We
do
provide
service
here,
but
a
lot
of
this
service
is
regional
service.
There's
a
lot
of
Metro
bus
service
that
goes
to
the
Pentagon.
Our
regional
Partners
also
provide
service
into
this
area.
Lowden
County,
Prince,
William,
County,
prtc
and
Fairfax
County.
All
providing
service
into
this
I
do
want
to
mention.
S
We
are
not
proposing
to
serve
the
airport
directly
by
going
into
the
airport.
There's
a
lot
of
operational
issues,
I
I'm
sure.
If
you've
been
to
the
airport
and
you've
tried
to
drive
through
at
some
times,
you
can
get
through
in
10
minutes
drop
someone
off
get
through
in
10
minutes
other
times
it
can
take
you
an
hour
and
a
half
to
get
through
the
airport
very
difficult
to
plan
for
that.
It's
not
only
seasonally,
but
it's
daily
and
also
the
primary
people
that
want
to
use.
S
This
would
be
people
that
want
to
fly,
which
is
not
a
a
a
a
a
regular
demand
for
that.
It
depends
on
when
people
want
to
fly
again,
usually
during
holidays
and
things
like
that,
though,
we
will
have
a
a
a
a
bridge
that
connects
from
right
here
at
Crystal
City,
where
a
lot
of
our
services
come
to,
that
you
can
get
to
Crystal
City,
get
off
and
walk
right
across
to
the
airport,
so
that
is
it
and
I
will
turn
it
back
over
to.
O
Clinton,
thank
you,
Paul
implementation.
This,
of
course,
as
I
said
earlier,
will
be
phased
in
over
10
years
and
what
we
will
do
during
that
10e
cycle.
We
will
look
at
the
each
recommendation
on
an
annual
basis
just
to
try
to
decide
if
they're
still
desirable
are
there
adjustments
that
they
need
to
be
made,
and
do
we
need
to
still
do
those
so
just
looking
to
see
if
they
can
smile
still
pass
the
smell
test
next
slide.
Please.
O
Again,
yep
I
think
this
is
it.
Let
me
see
here:
yeah
we
have
our
public
engagement
timeline.
I
won't
talk
to
this
point
at
all.
Here's
the
public
engagement
timeline,
we're
doing
public
engagement
now
through
July
30th,
we'll
be
having
popups
throughout
the
summer
and
you'll
see
these
nice
little
route
cards
at
those
engagements
and
you
can
go
to
the
website
for
more
information,
and
that
is
it.
So
here
are
our
next
steps
and
that's
it
for
the
transit
strategic
plan,
the
service
recommendations
and
we'll
take
any
questions
from
the
commissioners.
Q
Thank
you,
CH.
Thank
you.
Gentlemen.
I
have
two
quick
questions.
First
of
all,
when
you're
putting
this
plan
together,
have
you
been
anticipating
that
wada
is
going
to
cut
back
on
their
routes
because
of
all
the
the
funding
and
financing
problems
that
they're.
O
Having
we
are
working
hand
inand
with
wada,
on
their
better
bus
Network,
so
we
are
we're
attending
their
technical,
we're
on
the
technical
advisor
committee
and
they
are
on
ours
as
well
looking
at
this
plan,
but
we
are
monitoring
very
very
closely
what
is
happening.
I
know.
You
all
saw
in
the
news
last
week
where
they
put
out
that
during
fy2
they
would
have
to
a
$750
million
operating
budget
and
what
that
would
actually
do
to
service.
O
So
we
are
closely
monitoring
that
and
on
the
previous
slides,
you
saw
how
we
said
that
we
would
look
back
at
implementing
recommendations
on
an
annual
basis.
If,
let's
say
wada
does
get
to
that
level
of
service
that
they
have
to
cut
back
service
at
9:30,
then
we
would
make
make
sure
to
tailor
our
future
recommendations
to
match
whatever
what
mod
service
was
or
was
not
present.
Q
Thank
you
very
much.
My
second
question
had
to
do
with
slide.
Q
So
in
the
lower
leand
corner,
the
conclusion
is
that
1.5
battery
electric
buses
would
be
required
for
each
existing
fossil
gas
bus
I'm
sure
that
y'all
did
a
very
careful
and
detailed
analysis
that
led
you
to
that
conclusion.
Would
y'all
be
willing
to
share
that
careful
and
detailed
analysis
with
us.
O
I'll
answer
this
first
part
of
that
and
then
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Pierre
Hollman
for
anything
else.
It
is
still
the
pending
Zeb
study,
that's
where
we
are
right
now,
so
the
study
hasn't
been
finalized.
Pierre
could
provide
more
details
as
to
the
actual
study.
T
So
yeah
just
quickly
the
zero
emission
bus
study.
That's
ongoing,
did
do
route,
modeling
analysis
based
on
existing
route
structures
and
based
on
the
modeling.
It
results
in
about
1.59
BB
to
one
CG
bus
ratio
and
that's
just
based
on
Route
modeling
that
the
consultant
did
for
us.
Well.
A
T
Yeah
they
just
yeah
I,
think
that
will
be
in
the
when
the
final
stud
is
released.
All
that
information
is
in
there.
K
Johan
can
I
say
something:
we've
actually
been
around
around
this
before
we
pointed
out,
the
1.5
assumption
is
based
on
outdated
technology
that
the
county
will
not
purchase
because
nobody's
purchasing
that
technology
anymore.
It's
on
undersized
battery
pack
for
buses
that
U
are
even
on
Market
nowadays,
so
you're
you're,
using
outdated
technology
and
you're,
making
assumptions
about
the
routes
that
all
the
routes
are
going
to
be
equally
bad.
Instead
of
doing
some
simple
planning
to
make
sure
you
have
efficient
U,
take
exam.
K
Take
efficiency
into
consider
ation
when
you
do
your
bus
planning
about
which
buses
go,
which
routes.
So
we
have
already
looked
at
it
a
little
bit
and
we
do
need
the
details
because,
with
the
details
we
can
just
show
that's
just
a
false
assumption
and
it's
leading
to
some
very
skewed
Planning
by
Arington
County
that
you
make
an
incorrect
assumption
about
how
many
electric
buses
you
need.
T
Yeah
just
to
note
the
modeling
did
analyze
a
440
and
550
kilowatt
bus,
so
did
analyze
two
currently
available
bus,
Technologies,
700
written
up.
There's
one
manufacturer!
That's
producing
that
right
today,
but
it's
not
readily
available.
So
they
took
the
information
that
was
readily
available
at
the
time,
which
was
several
months
ago,
yeah
even
last
year,
and
they
used
that
for
theout.
K
Modeling,
when
you
had
the
same
ratio
with
with
without
those
assumptions
before
so,
are
you
just
backing
the
calculations
to
get
to
the
same
ratio
so
anyway,
it's
I
mean
we
do
want
the
details.
So
you
know
Doug
is
asking
for
the
the
right
thing,
because
we're
highly
skeptical
of.
A
This
Jonathan.
B
Yeah
on
that
same
slide,
quick
question,
the
7.31
million,
that's
cost,
I
I,
don't
know,
and
maybe
I
missed
it.
What
proportion
I,
don't
know.
10%
40%
60%
of
the
cost
is
offset
by
the
by
the
fairs
to
because,
obviously,
if
you
are
running
that
many
more
hours,
then
you're
going
to
be
increasing
the
number
of
of
of
fairs
and
revenue
coming
in.
So
how
much
more
do
you
anticipate?
This
will
cost
minus
the
additional
Revenue
as
opposed
to
just
the
extra
cost?
Maybe
it's
7.31
million.
B
Another
point
I'd
like
to
make
is
I
appreciated
the
the
clearly
the
the
heavy
correction
on
some
very
underserved
parts
of
the
the
county
should
be
kind
of
embarrassing,
whoever
whoever
did
the
previous
mapping
that
grossly
underserved
the
the
the
areas
of
the
county
that
appear
to
need
it
more
than
than
than
wealthier
areas
of
the
county,
which
are
much
more
likely
to
have
more
vehicles
at
their
disposal,
not
need
public
transit
as
much,
and
so
that
was
a
point
question
again
on
Slide
Five,
I'm,
sorry
slide,
12,
you
you
say
CNG
RNG.
B
Are
we
actually
purchasing
renewable
natural
gas?
I
mean
are:
are
we
actually
purchasing
renewable
natural
gas
right
now
for
for
these
vehicles,
and,
if
not,
is
that
definitively
in
the
plan?
Because
my
understanding
is
RNG?
Is
it
it's
not
easy
to
come
by?
It's
not
like
there's
this
massive
production
pipeline
going
on
out
there
anyway.
That's
it
thanks.
P
So
if
I
could
just
jump
in
and
just
answer
the
RNG
question,
we
are
not
purchasing
it
right
now,
but
we
plan
to
we've
been
talking
with
clean
energy,
which
is
a
national
company
that
provides
RNG
to
Transit
agencies
around
the
country.
They
have
access
to
a
number
of
different
places
that
can
provide
RNG
into
the
CG
pipeline.
That
makes
the
CNG
cleaner.
P
So
we
anticipate
using
RNG
with
the
purchase
of
the
next
set
of
CG
buses
we
get
and
as
we
move
to
transition
the
fleet,
we
want
to
make
to
make
it
cleaner
by
using
RNG.
So
it's
it's
something
that
we've
planned
for
the
future
to
help
move
us
into
transitioning.
The.
E
O
And
then
on
your
two
questions
about
for
the
fair
Revenue
offset
we're
getting
ready
to
work
on
the
operating
funding
plan
this
summertime.
So
we
would
be
able
to
do
our
ridership
projections
and
then,
once
we
can
project
the
ridership
we'd
be
able
to
then
project
the
fair
Revenue
that
would
help
offset
that
additional
$7.3
million,
and
then
thank
you
for
your
comment
regarding
just
providing
additional
service
to
those
areas
of
the
county
that
have
needed
it
in
the
past.
O
But
that's
the
part
of
this
plan
is
identifying
those
needs
and
making
improvements
where
we.
J
Can
yeah
just
a
a
question
on
on
service
so
this
all
these
projections
are
Supply
based
increases
in
service
hours
and
changes,
and
so
forth
and
I'm
wondering.
Is
there
a
correlation
to
those
who
are
served?
Is
there
a
projection?
I
mean
there's
a
lot
of
investment.
There's
a
there
big
changes
here.
Does
that
is
there
a
direct
correlation
to
all
the
people,
the
residents
of
the
county,
who
will
be
served.
J
S
J
Yeah
in
total
and
the
specific
people
like
we're
going
to
talk
about
equity
and
public
transportation,
are
there?
Are
there
any
estimates
of
how
many
people
low-income
people
in
our
community
can
be
served
with
all
of
these
potential
changes.
S
Yes,
we
as
part
of
this,
we
are
doing
an
in
an
equity,
anal
analysis.
That
is,
you
know
it.
It's
it's
coming
more
towards
the
end
of
this
as
we
finalize
the
routes.
This
is
currently
still
in
draft,
but
we
have
done
estimates
on
the
number
of
people
that
are
within
a
certain
distance
of
the
service,
and
so
in
short,
yes,
in
short,
yes
and
that'll
be
forthcoming.
F
H
Terms
you
actually
making
Transit
more
attractive
people
that
aren't
riding
because
there's
you
know
if
you're
looking
at
what
people
are
doing
now
and
trying
to
to
make
it
to
you
know,
make
make
it
more,
efficient
and
and
more
convenient.
But
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
people
that
don't
find
it
convenient,
so
they
just
don't
write
it.
So
you
know
frequency
is.
S
Currently,
you
know
we
we
obviously
we're
reaching
out
to
populations
that
do
ride
the
bus,
our
our
users
today
making
sure
that
we
aren't
ruining
their
experience
by
changing
things,
but
we
are
making
a
concerted
effort
to
go
to
places
that
we
could
interact
with
people
that
aren't
currently
riding
the
bus
and
find
out
what
we
need
to
do
to
help
them
ride
the
bus
and,
again
I
I,
think
the
north
county.
O
And
I
just
add
to
what
Paul
said.
The
plan
is
actually
that
mechanism
to
encourage
folks
to
ride,
as
you
can
see
on
this
slide,
just
all
of
the
increased
amount
of
service,
almost
doubling
the
amount
of
service
and
also
looking
for
Transit
Champions,
like
yourselves,
to
encourage
folks
to
use
public
transportation
and
to
continue
to
support
Arlington's
moniker
of
having
a
car-free.
H
Diet
and
I
think
I
mean
I.
The
micro
Mobility
has
some
prospects,
especially
I.
Don't
it
sounded
like
it
was
like
an
individual
vehicle
person,
picks
up
one
person
versus
a
small
vehicle
servicing
an
area
and
going
to
wherever
somebody
needs
Transit
and
then
delivering
them,
and
then
kind
of
you
know.
There's
technology
they're
around
I
assume
that
makes
the
way
to
facilitate
that
type
of
of
service
is.
Are
you
looking
fly
fully
into
that
or
doesn't
sound
like
you?
Have
it
too
developed?
S
Right
and
the
only
thing
I
want
to
say
about
that
is:
yes,
they
would
be
smaller
vehicles,
but
we'd
also
be
looking
to
have.
People
share
rides
so
think
of
an
Uber
pool
where
you
would
have
people
along
a
trip
so
you're
you
may
have
multiple
people
and
when
we're
saying
smaller
Vehicles,
these
may
be
like
a
minivans
or
a
smaller
bus,
but
we
would
still
encourage
shared
rides.
H
Yeah,
okay,
because
I
mean
that
that
might
be
more
something
to
to
make
it
much
more
flexible,
I
think
we're
probably
going
to
have
to
wrap
this
up
pretty
quickly.
One
of
a
couple
just
to
kind
of
you
know
some
of
the
issues
I
have
raised
and
would
be
like.
Is
you
know
how
does
this
fit
in
with
the
C
and
decarbonizing
transportation?
Obviously
you
know
and
that's
where
some
of
the
greenhous,
what
is
the
greenhouse
gas
emissions
of
the
current
bus
system?
H
What
is
it
per
per
Rider
mile
or
whatever
the
equivalent
is
because,
frankly,
this
this
evening,
I
took
the
art
but
55
down
to
get
here
and
I
was
the
only
person
on
the
bus
now,
admittedly,
since
that
bus
was
running
anyway,
it
was
a
small
amount
of
carbon
emissions.
I
didn't
emiss
by
riding
my
bus
bus,
but
if
the
bus
didn't
exist,
if
the
bus
wasn't
there,
my
carbon
emissions
probably
would
be
lower
than
the
total
carbon
emissions
of
of
those
buses.
H
So
I
mean
starting
to
think
about
that
and
that's
why
actually
I
think
we're
pretty
insistent
that
the
buses
need
to
go
to
zero
emissions
and
they
need
to
go
to
zero
emissions
as
quickly
as
possible,
because
at
least,
if
there's
only
a
few
Riders,
it's
zero
emissions.
And
that's
that's
a
start.
Although
you
know
the
broader
goal
is
to
actually
have
a
Transit
strategy
and
I'm
not
quite
sure
this
is
quite
there.
H
Yet
that
really
really
makes
it
convenient
for
people
to
get
out
of
their
cars
and
get
to
where
they
want
to
go,
and
at
least
a
good
fraction
of
them
of
people
that
are
now
still
riing
on
their
own.
A
H
The
end
of
our
yeah
would
I
get
be
able
to
get
volunteers
to
kind
of
pull
together
comments
on
the
transit
strategy
you
know
kind
of,
and
we,
if
we
can
all
look
at
the
materials
that
they
put
out
and
certainly
evaluate
these
bus
routes.
From
the
perspective
of
where
you
go
and
what
you
do
and
and
how
much
so
you
give
that
specific
feedback
of
you
know
if
You'
use
it.
If
you
would
not,
you
know
what
would
work
better
for
you,
but
also
look
at
it
more
broadly
from
the
greenhouse.
F
H
And
CP
emissions
and
kind
of
the
the
broader
things
of
is
this
ambitious
enough
to
to
meet
our
our.
H
Did
you
able
to
bring
up
the
minutes.
H
Quickly
minutes
did
anybody
have
any
additional
comments,
J
and
I
put
in
a.
E
G
I
think
I
did
I
know
I
received
something
from
Jan
and
I.
Think
I
received
something
from
you
as
well.
I.
H
E
H
H
Was
clarifying
something
duck
had
said
to.
E
Demitra
I'm
going
to
send
it
M
to
you,
you
did
you
get
the
Google
Doc
with
suggest
mode
changes.
G
F
G
H
Record,
are
we
comfortable
enough
with
them,
and
the
changes
were
just
a
little
bit
of
clarifying.
F
H
Second,
all
in
favor
I
any
opposed
okay.
So,
with
the
changes
that
were
provided,
we
will
approve
those.
Let's
go.
Can
we
go
to
the
Bon
Holiday
In
Site
Mark?
If
you
want
to
title,
need
any
discussion
for
the
letter
or
the
the
the.
C
R
Unless
somebody
had
question,
let
me
make
sure
yeah,
okay,
good
I,
made
two
Corrections
here.
I
had
because
we
had
changed
the
checklist
number.
So
I
made
a
letter
heading
number,
which
is
60.
R
E
It
didn't
make
sense
there.
Are
you
in
you're
in
the
is
this
a
word
version?
Unfortunately,
I
made
my
comments
in
again
in
in
a
Google
version.
C
Your
yeah,
this
was
from
I
downloaded
the
links
that
you
sent
at
the
top.
J
S
J
C
E
Correct
because
yeah
and
all
electric
building,
that's
a
private
building,
won't
be
benefiting
from
County
renewable
energy,
fired
electricity
necessarily.
E
R
E
Is
another
question:
okay,
separate
question,
so
you
can
delete
that.
Why
is
there
an
underline.
E
Try
to
doe
the
only
comment
on
that.
These
two
other
letters
that
are
not
mine
is
very
small
thing
applicant.
You
know.
H
Tend
to
lean
towards
that,
but
I
do
have
to
I
I
easily,
miss
it
I,
don't
think
anybody,
but
you
know
consistency
is
helpful.
Okay,
actually
one
thing
just
to
point
out
for
this
one
is
that
on
the
cookie
that
they
are
looking
at
using
gas
for
the
pondos
they're
building,
these
triplexes.
A
H
R
P
A
H
H
Wired,
so
that
they
could
install
EV
Chargers-
and
you
know
kind
of
you
need
for
this
particular.
F
Development
is
the
score
on
this
one
Joan
I
saw
you
put
comments
in
the
checklist,
so
I
want
to
make
that
might
have
changed
the
score,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
whatever
the
score
is
in
the
letter,
it
matches
the
final
version
of
the
checklist
or
that
we
decide
to
stick
with
the
checklist
as
it
was
before.
Your
comments.
F
Yeah
yeah
I,
don't
see
the
little
yellow
things
anymore
and
I
think
we
should
go
back
to
Eric's
comment
on
the
letter
as
well,
which
is
something
we've
talked
about.
You
know
all
of
these
projects.
The
high
scores
are,
are
super
low
and
they're,
not
getting
us
anywhere
and
even
now
in
this
batch
of
letters,
there's
some
really
exciting
projects
who
are
going
for
point4
five
far
under
the
gbi.
F
You
know-
and
this
has
been
an
issue-
it's
an
issue
that
Katie
Crystal
talked
about
at
a
County
board
meeting,
where
I
think
maybe
Maji
was
testifying
and
I
know
that
the
Planning
Commission
talked
about
it
too.
At
a
meeting
that
I
testified
at
that.
You
know
we're
we're.
Just
all
these
scores
are
low.
We
all
acknowledge
that
they're
low.
We
all
pass
them
anyway
and
yeah.
It's
a
fair
comment.
F
H
R
Well,
there's
another
part
of
the
St,
which
is
that's
I
was
telling
Joe
I
I've
looked
behind
the
equations
that
go
into
our
scoring
system
and
I
I
think
we
ought
to
look
at
that.
H
For
electrification
that
mean
I
think
overall,
the
scores
are
reflective
and
it's
especially
you
know.
We
have
a
a
bias
towards
electrification
and
getting
Foss
office.
That's
so
crucial,
so
I
think
the
scoring
overall
Works
I
think
it's
kind
of
Porky
in
terms
of
some
of
the
categories
in
there
and.
E
H
F
H
Yeah
and
again,
I
do
know
that
Parks
and
Rec
Parks
and
Recreation
Commission
is
actually
looking
at
creating
this
checklist
similar
to
ours.
So,
oh
interesting,
you
know
flattery,
you.
A
E
H
F
Up
separately,
I
I
do
want
to
commend
all
of
you.
I
mean
the
checklist
was
in
place
when
I
got
on
the
commission,
it's
a
huge
amount
of
work
and
it
makes
it
so
much
more
objective.
It's
so
much
hugely
hugely
better
than
us,
just
participating
in
taking
our
best
shot.
It's
added
a
lot
of
clar
I
know
so,
even
though
we
can
take
it
to
the
next
level.
It's
it's
incredibly
helpful.
J
And
frankly,
just
a
question
on
that,
since
I'm
not
familiar
with
the
actual
metrics,
I
haven't
gotten
there
yet,
but
was
that
developed
with
outside
expertise
or
was
that
all
internal.
H
E
H
H
E
Doneer,
what
is
the
soonest
possible?
Do
you
think
that
the
next
version
of
the
gbi
could
be
approved
six
months.
G
G
But
the
other
thing
too,
and
this
isn't
for
tonight's
discussion,
but
maybe
around
when
you
talk
about
the
legislative
I,
don't
expect
the
state,
the
Commonwealth
to
adopt
really
dramatically
different
building
measures
for
the
entire
Commonwealth,
but
maybe
if
they
would
just
allow
local
jurisdictions
to
create
their
own
standard
based
on
human
health
and
safety
and
include
climate
change.
In
that.
G
G
And-
and
that
way
you
know,
it
would
be
great
if
they
would
just
in
that
regard,
because
I
know
that
places
like
Hampton
Muse
and
all
that
have
very
distinct
changes
to
their
building
code
that
are
based
on
flood
mitigation
Etc.
So
maybe
something
along
those
lines
just
to
be
able
to
give
us
at
least
some
ability
to
operate
and
adopt.
You
know
a
different
code,
because
they're
just
years
behind
you.
A
A
A
C
Sorry
Joon,
it
looks
like
I,
don't
have
access
to
update
the
letters
in
Google,
but
I
can't
the
changes
I
can
I
can
document.
Okay,
thank.
A
I
Edits
this
one
was,
you
know,
fairly
C
and
dry,
I
mean
the
the
appin
was
pretty
up
front,
that
they
were
not
doing
much
more
of
than
the
bare
minimum.
There
was
some
stuff
about
storm
water,
but
it's
like
so
poorly
developed
that
I
didn't
even
really.
G
I
I
A
I
N
E
N
H
G
A
H
N
G
A
G
A
F
J
A
H
Very
end:
before
Co,
okay,
okay,
a
motion
to
approve
I
move
to
approve.
H
Okay,
well,
okay,
works
for
me
all
in
favor,
I.
E
H
A
A
E
But
as
I
took
a
closer
look
at
the
U
checklist,
I
realized
that
they
didn't
deserve
an
exceed
score
on
the
HVAC
because
of
Electric
in
the
apartment.
I
mean
gas,
backup
in
the
apartments
and
also
domestic
hot
water.
Gas.
E
F
E
Believe
but
I
updated
this
based
on
they
yeah.
They
made
some
adjustments
as
well.
E
A
E
Exception
we
kind
of,
and
they
did,
they
are
proposing
to
accomplish
four
extras
that
you
know
require
a
higher
Le
standard.
What
were
the
extras.
E
E
Energy
optimization,
it
was
renewable
energy,
not
renewable
energy,
with
storage.
That's
one
of
the
things
I
I.
E
Good
question:
it:
it
backup.
E
E
Correct
so
yeah
when
tempure
gets
below
a
certain
level
and
less
and
you
know
I
I,
don't
believe
it's
you
know
necessary
all.
I
H
Pump
it
into
the
building,
otherwise
people
would
complain
because
was
part
of
the
ventilation
systems,
but
some
of
those
are
now
using
the
holiday
in
one
was
using
electric
for
that
obsil
heat,
so
you
know
so
it
can
be
done
with
electric
yeah.
So
and
and
again
you
know
highly
efficient
systems
and
highly
efficient
buildings
mean
that
you
know
you
don't
need.
You
don't
need
the
gas,
but
you
know
they're
at
least
moving
to
reduce
the
amount
of
gas
that
they
use.
The.
E
K
J
K
E
Far
and
I
do
recognize
at
the
very
beginning,
if
you
want
to
scroll
up
that
something
see
those
dashes
something
few
projects
have
done
so
far,
which
involves
pursuing
so
I'm
getting
credit.
What's
their
Energy
Efficiency,
it's
90.
K
It's
20.
A
E
I
was
on
the
fence
about
whether
to
bring
them
back
to
just
meets
for
the
HVAC,
even
though
the
HVAC
in
the
buildings
in
I
think
we
tended
to
be
pretty
consistent.
A
E
E
A
H
Isn't
great
it's
much
better,
but
okay,
anybody
have
any
other.
F
B
H
E
Okay,
so
so
the
Solid
Waste
committee.
Well,
we.
P
E
We
finally
have
a
full
initial
draft
of
the
new
Solid
Waste
Management
plan
accused
with
zero
waste
principles,
and
they
would
like
we
just
didn't
have
time
for
this
meeting's.
E
Obvious
reasons
we
they
have
asked
for
our
our
feedback
by
July
20th.
When
is.
A
H
E
E
A
E
Yeah
so
I
will,
before
the
next
meeting,
be
reaching
out
for.
H
On
it,
and
one
thing
on
this,
one
and
also
really
the
transit
strategy
is
think
of
it
from
the
con
connection
of
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
carbon
footprint
and
how
it
you
know,
kind
of
really
addresses
climate
action
in
C.
Now
the
C
doesn't
really
address
and
body
covering,
but
I
think
that's
something
that
we
want
to
kind
of
be
going
forward
and
pushing
that
and
pointing
out
where
you
know,
there's
opportunities
to
reduce.
E
Demetri
is
there
any
way
that
our
commission
can
know
what
our
new
climate
change
coordinator
what
he
might
be
recommending?
Also
to
some
of
these
plans
that
we
are
also
looking
at
because
it
it
would
be
informative
for
us
to
know,
because
I
I
would
think
he
would
want
to
keep
his
focus
on
each
of
these
big
plans
that
are
coming
up.
G
A
G
G
G
Going
to
be,
obviously
you
know,
along
with
everybody
else,
I
mean
we
do
an
all
of
government.
You
know
engagement
as
as
part
of
the
engagement
process,
so
he's
obviously
going
to
be
part
of
that
when
you
say.
H
J
G
H
Another
part
of
I
think
the
air
team
and
Demetri.
G
Overing,
the
yeah
I
I
think
it's
important
to
look
at
what
the
purpose
of
each
plan
and
I
know
that
we're
out
of
time
long
time
ago,
but
the
transit
strategic
plan
by
state
law
that
is
really
about
increasing
Roots,
increasing
writers,
ship
and
things.
So
it's
not
intended
to
deal
with
the
climate
change
aspects.
That's
you
know,
that's
the
tsp
is
mandated
by
law
on
the
content
of
it
is
very
specifically.
So
that's
why
you've
got
this
interface
of
plans,
so
you've
got
the
carbon
neutral,
Transportation
master
plan,
the
Zev
and
the
tsp.
G
So
that's
going
to
ridership
efficiency,
increasing
mo
multim
mobility
and
then
you've
got
the
the
climate
aspect.
That's
coming
through
other
venues
and
they're
interfacing
with
each
other.
E
Well,
the
transit
plan
be
adjusted
based
on
the
results
of
the
decarbonization
plan.
It
might
cause
decisions
to
to
think
certain
roots
are
excessively
carbon
emitting.
H
A
G
P
H
Emissions
so
encourage
everybody
to
to
look
at
that,
and-
and
that
might
be
one
of
the
things
that
we
want
to
kind
of
recommend
to
the
board
is
that
we
need
a
region
Regional
effort
to
shift
the
spending
away
from
cars
and
highways
and
Roads
to
Transit
as
being
much
more
in
our
best
interest.
Because.
