A
A
I'm
board
sure
katie
crystal
I'm
joined
this
morning
by
all
my
colleagues,
ms
libby
garvey,
mr
matt
deferenti,
vice
chairman
christian
dorsey
and
mr
takas
karantonis.
We
are
glad
to
have
you
with
us
on
the
boardroom
or
watching
remotely
via
microsoft
teams.
Just
a
couple
of
options
before
we
get
underway
with
public
comment,
masks
are
optional.
You
may
see
us
wearing
them.
If,
for
example,
we
have
had
a
exposure
recently
butter
testing
negative,
you
should
feel
free
to
wear
one
as
comfortable
and
based
on
your
individual
preference.
A
Some
members
of
the
public,
as
well
as
county
staff
and
other
presenters,
will
be
participating
remotely
today
as
part
of
our
hybrid
meeting
model.
If
you
are
speaking
in
person
that
podium
can
be
adjusted
using
the
up
or
down
arrow
buttons
on
the
right,
please
do
speak
clearly
into
the
microphone.
That
makes
sure
not
only
we
can
hear
you,
but
anyone
listening
along
at
home
can
do
so.
As
well,
if
you
will
be
submitting
documents
as
part
of
your
testimony,
please
hand
them
to
the
clerk.
A
If
you
could
include
your
name
and
contact
information,
that
would
be
terrific
so
that
we
have
the
option
to
follow
up
with
you
for
remote
speakers,
please
keep
your
microphones
unmuted
or
muted
and
your
camera's
off.
Until
you
are
called
on
to
speak,
you
will
need
to
unmute
yourself
if
you
are
using
the
teams
app
on
a
brow
or
browser,
you
can
do
that
by
clicking
the
microphone
button
on
the
toolbar.
B
A
Buenos
dias
senora
castro.
Thank
you
so
much.
Okay,
occasionally,
you
may
see
board
members
get
up
to
stretch
our
legs.
There
are
speakers
and
monitors
in
the
back,
so
I
promise
we
can
hear
you
and
are
listening.
Even
if
you
don't
see
us
briefly
before
we
launch
into
public
comment
a
note
about
our
familiar
one,
speaker
per
topic
rule.
A
We
have
public
comment,
because
it
is
a
chance
for
board
members
to
hear
from
residents
about
things
that
are
not
have
been
up
in
the
subject
of
recent
public
hearings
or
are
not
subjects
of
imminent
public
hearings
and
to
ensure
that
we
can
be
fair
and
consistent.
We
ask
that
one
speaker
per
topic
comes
before
us.
It
helps
us
manage
the
public
comment
period,
so
we
can
get
to
the
main
purpose
of
today's
agenda,
which
is
the
items
on
the
regular
agenda
and
to
respect
the
time
of
your
neighbors.
A
Who
may
be
waiting
to
speak
about
those
items
that
are
scheduled
for
today,
so
pushing
the
one
speaker
per
topic
ruled
does
not
mean
you
are
penalizing
the
board.
It
means
you
are
penalizing
your
fellow
arlingtonians
and
we
thank
you
for
your
respect
for
that,
one
speaker
for
topic,
rule
and
your
respect
to
them.
If
you
are
here
with
a
coordinated
group
today,
we
ask
that
you
identify
one
representative
to
raise
your
topic.
A
That
representative
can
make
us
aware
that
there
are
others
who
are
present
virtually
or
in
person
who
share
their
views
and,
most
importantly,
there
are
plenty
of
other
ways
to.
Let
us
know
what
you
think.
You
can
email
us
county
board
at
arlingtonva.us
and
for
a
more
dynamic
conversation,
we
recommend
open
door
monday,
which
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
get
more
deeply
into
exploration
of
your
concerns.
Talk
to
you,
multiple
neighbors,
and
hear
different
perspectives
that
information
about
open
door
monday
is
available
on
our
website.
A
D
D
I'm
one,
I'm
lucky
enough
to
live
in
one
of
the
few
remaining
missing
middle
homes
in
arlington,
my
duplex
was
built
in
1935,
but
starting
in
1938
houses
like
nine
were
progressively
banned.
As
a
result,
the
surrounding
homes,
for
me
are
bigger,
newer,
more
expensive,
single-family
homes.
Most
of
arlington
is
in
a
position
like
me.
The
vast
majority
of
arlington
lives
in
multi-family
homes
and
70
of
us
support
the
missing
middle
framework
as
a
way
to
stay
in
arlington
and
thrive
in
arlington.
D
D
D
The
let's
give
home
builders
the
flexibility
to
be
creative,
to
provide
attainable
housing
for
folks.
Like
me,
arlington
is
facing
a
backlog
of
over
a
century
of
not
building
houses
that
are
modest,
multi-family
homes.
It's
it
half
measures
aren't
gonna
cut
it.
The
only
solution
is
to
build
and
build
a
lot
more.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.
F
Thank
you
good
morning.
My
name
is
john
ware.
I'm
a
dad
of
three
and
a
17-year
resident
of
the
county.
I've
lived
on
the
yellow
line,
the
orange
line,
the
north
and
the
south.
I'm
here
today
to
talk
about
a
fundamental
right,
and
that
is
notice
and
an
opportunity
to
be
heard,
and
I
think
that's
imperiled
when
it
comes
to
zoning
that
we
can
do
better
to
include
more
voices
during
the
week,
I'm
a
consumer
protection
lawyer.
F
That
means
I'm
looking
out
for
you,
your
families,
the
elderly
and
disadvantaged
communities,
making
sure
when
a
company
says
they
will
not
do
something
that
they
don't
and
then,
when
a
company
says
they
will
do
something
they
clearly
and
conspicuously.
Tell
you
what
they're
going
to
do
on
zoning?
Let
me
quote:
the
post
proponents
of
affordable
housing
strongly
criticized
the
county
for
pushing
through
the
concept
without
holding
arlington's,
traditionally
extensive
series
of
community
meetings
to
hammer
out
regulations
and
incentives.
F
The
county
had
not
even
sent
notices
to
all
properties
that
could
undergo
a
change
in
their
land
use
rights.
Residents,
said
or
sent
notices
so
late
as
to
be
almost
useless.
That
was
unquote
that
was
december
2017
on
a
housing
conservation
district.
I
understand
that
status
quo
persists
today
for
zoning
generally.
So
what
can
we
do?
F
Change
the
zoning
ordinance
and
policies
around
it
that
require
staff
to
give
meaningful,
clear,
conspicuous
notice,
far
ahead,
when
considering
zoning
changes,
how
do
we
do
that?
First,
arlington's
cap
portal,
for
paying
bills
has
mailing
addresses
and
email
addresses.
Considering
a
zoning
change
send
an
email
in
the
subject
line.
Your
area
may
be
rezoned
in
the
body
plain
language
specifically
detail.
What
may
be
what
is
being
considered
in
the
zoning
change?
F
Here's
what
you
can
do,
here's
a
date
specific
by
which
you
can
act,
big,
bold
font,
yellow
background,
very
clear
second
for
others:
snail,
mail,
neighborhood,
signs,
yellow
background,
bold
font.
This
week
I
got
this
eight
page
pamphlet
from
the
county
telling
me
where
my
water
comes
from.
If
we
can
do
this
much
notice
for
where
water
comes
from,
I
think
if
we
truly
care
about
inclusion
and
zoning,
we
can
do
more.
Thank.
G
Good
morning
and
thank
you
I'd
like
to
bring
up
something
a
little
bit
different,
though
in
some
ways
the
same
data
presented
wednesday
to
the
virginia
housing
commission
warns
of
disturbing
trends.
G
Despite
the
demand
declined
due
to
interest
rates,
dropping
home
prices
haven't
changed
in
this
area,
demand
exceeds
supply
and
tear
downs
are
replacing
affordable
houses
with
unaffordable
houses.
700
000
becomes
3.5
million,
sometimes
single-family
homes,
despite
this
continue
to
sell
at
a
faster
rate
than
other
types
of
housing,
and
the
reason
is
that
it's
the
american
dream.
G
We
see
condos
lingering
apartments,
offering
incentives
to
attract
people
developers.
Coming
to
you
saying
I
want
to
convert
to
hotel
space
because
I've
got
excess
inventory
more
than
just
being
the
most
desirable
housing
type
single
family
homes
are
also
the
key
to
building
intergenerational
wealth.
G
Renting
doesn't
do
it
condos,
don't
do
it
even
row?
Houses
don't
do
it.
Single
family
homes
are
the
big
gainers,
and
that's
probably,
why
billionaires
own
so
many
homes,
unaffordable
homes
impact
lower-income
residents
the
most
the
average
30-year
mortgage
has
gone
from
13
to
200
a
month.
In
the
last
five
years,
the
lack
of
affordable,
single-family
homes
compounds
racial
disparities.
G
We
also
have
young
families
seeking
to
provide
space
for
for
their
growing
families,
and
they
can't
find
anything
in
arlington
anymore,
that's
affordable,
so
american
home
american
dream
is
a
single
family
home.
Our
future
depends
on
being
able
to
have
a
different,
diverse
population.
Thank.
H
Thank
you,
my
name's
scott
ferguson,
I'm
a
26
year
resident
of
arlington
I've
lived
in
both
south
and
north
arlington.
I'd
like
to
talk
to
you
today
about
the
risks
of
private
equity
penetration
in
our
community.
The
growing
influence
of
private
equity,
private
equity
is
now
the
dominant
form
of
financial
backing.
Among
the
35
largest
owners
of
multi-family
buildings
in
the
u.s,
private
equity
investors
bought
a
record
25.3
percent
of
low-priced
housing
in
first
quarter
of
2022..
H
According
to
the
census
bureau
in
2018,
investors
made
up
16
of
single-family
rental
ownership.
Today,
it's
20
next
slide.
Please
cost
impacts
companies.
Size,
allows
them
to
influence
market
rates
and
lobby
against
reforms
that
could
dilute
their
power
and
their
goals
quickly.
Hiking
a
builder's
profits,
so
they
can
sell
at
a
premium,
are
often
at
odds
with
those
of
the
tenants
who
need
to
live
in
them.
H
Large
loans
to
private
equity
firms
helps
drive
concentration
and
pushes
the
cost
of
renting
financial
markets
are
structured.
Shareholders
expect
increasing
returns.
This
creates
pressure
on
companies
to
invest
prof,
to
increase
profits,
reduce
maintenance
and
increase
fees,
minority
home
ownership
trends,
neighborhoods
that
are
formerly
or
formerly
ownership.
Neighborhoods.
H
That
are
one
of
the
few
ways
that
working
class
families
and
communities
of
color
could
build
wealth
and
gain
stability
are
slowly
or
not
so
slowly
turned
into
renter
communities
and
not
renter
communities
owned,
but
by
mom
and
pop
landlords,
but
by
some
of
the
largest
private
equity
firms
in
the
world
considerations,
the
board
needs
to
study
the
unintended
consequences
associated
with
proposed
policy
changes
and
impact
of
private
equity
participation
in
the
arlington
residential
real
estate
market.
The
board
needs
to
explore
targeted
policies
to
adopt,
and
that
would.
B
We
go
okay
good
morning.
We
have
to
face
the
reality
that,
however,
many
corporations
decide
to
move
their
headquarters
to
arlington.
The
pandemic
has
permanently
changed.
How
corporations
conduct
business
from
here
on
out
remote
work
and
hybrid
schedules
are
here
to
stay?
Traditional
offices
are
out
while
collaborative
and
interactive
spaces
are
in
this
all
means
a
lower
footprint
is
needed.
So
what
do
we
do
with
all
this
empty
office?
Space
arlington
is
now
at
20.8
vacancy
rate
up
16.6
from
prior
to
the
pandemic.
B
I
thank
staff
for
issuing
administrative
guidance
for
office
conversions
at
the
end
of
2020,
but
further
concrete
action
is
needed.
This
is
where
pent
up
demand
for
housing
can
be
met
by
converting
office
space
into
housing,
while
at
the
same
time
targeting
affordability
for
the
many
in
an
eco-friendly
manner.
As
we
already
see
happening
in
our
neighboring
jurisdictions,
programs
can
be
started
for
incentivizing
owners
by
streamlining,
permitting
for
conversions
to
affordable
housing,
affordable
home,
ownerships,
condos
and
rental.
B
Part
of
the
conversation
needs
to
be
around
how
much
increased
population
arlington
can
handle
and
at
what
rate
of
increase,
we
need
to
synchronize
that,
with
the
rate
of
expansion
for
transportation
capacity,
schools,
infrastructure,
public
facilities,
parks
and
so
forth,
quality
of
life
is
what
makes
arlington
unique.
If
we
don't
do
it
properly,
we
will
be
destroying
what
we
have.
B
Let's
get
creative
and
deal
with
this
issue,
the
arlington
way
with
open
discourse
and
collaborative
thought,
rather
than
simply
attempting
to
emulate
the
still
unproven,
unproven
experiments
being
conducted
in
other
cities
that
simply
appease
developers
and
investors
and
drives
away
families
and
the
middle
class.
Let's
figure
out
the
right
solution
for
arlington.
A
I
C
I
I
I'd
like
to
give
just
one
example
from
my
own
family's
experience
to
help
illustrate
the
quality
of
life
in
some
regards
on
langston
boulevard.
I
live
in
easy
walking
distance
of
my
son's
pediatrician
and
a
large
grocery
store.
When
I
can,
I
like
to
walk
to
those
destinations,
but
when
I'm
pushing
the
stroller
up
langston
boulevard,
I
have
on
one
side
of
me
speeding,
trucks
and
suvs
and,
on
the
other,
a
string
of
surface
parking
lots
with
many
entering
and
exiting
vehicles.
I
The
highway
does
what
it
was
designed
to
do,
and
it
does
it
well,
which
is
move
cars
quickly
at
all
costs.
It's
not
safe,
it's
not
pleasant,
and
it's
not
the
best
that
arlington
can
do.
Plan
langston
boulevard
gives
us
a
path
to
a
denser,
more
walkable
and
attractive
corridor,
a
real
boulevard
and
not
a
highway.
I
To
me,
these
aren't
just
buzzwords
when
I
hear
them.
I
think
about
my
son
who's
10
months
old.
Will
this
vision
be
be
realized?
How
old
will
he
be
when
it
is?
Will
it
be
in
time
for
him
to
safely
walk
with
a
friend
to
get
pizza
at
lehigh
shops
in
time
for
him
to
sit
outside
of
starbucks
with
some
high
school
friends
and
face
something
other
than
a
parking
lot?
I
J
Welcome
members
of
the
board,
the
county
manager,
I'm
audrey,
clement
independent
candidate
for
county
board.
I
am
speaking
on
my
own
behalf
and
not
for
the
arlington
neighborhoods
advisory
commission,
arl
knack
of
which
I
am
a
member.
At
its
july
14th
meeting
arl
knack
representatives
were
presented
with
a
new
policy
governing
electronic
meetings
and
electronic
participation
in
meetings
drafted
by
the
county
attorney,
which
they
were
asked
to
approve.
J
In
the
absence
of
a
declared
emergency,
the
policy
prohibits
commissions
from
conducting
more
than
25
percent
of
their
meetings.
Virtually
it
prohibits
members
from
participating
in
more
than
25
percent
of
the
commission's
meetings
virtually.
Furthermore,
it
requires
that
physical
attendance
be
used
to
establish
quorum
for
the
conduct
of
commissioned
business.
J
Commissioners
were
simply
ordered
to
adopt
the
policy
which,
thankfully
arlenac
declined
to
do
absence
supporting
documentation.
This
policy
is
clearly
ageist
due
to
the
ongoing
ongoing
pandemic.
People
over
50
have
been
advised
by
the
cdc
to
stay
away
from
in-person
meetings.
Yet,
according
to
the
policy,
commissioners
will
have
to
attend
most
meetings
in
order
to
meet
quorum,
requiring
older
people
to
do
something
that
clearly
jeopardizes
their
health
is
per
se.
Discrimination
for
surely
county
board
will
be
incentivized
going
forward
to
steer
away
from
appointing
older
adults
to
boards
and
commissions.
K
Thank
you
is
it
working
now
there
we
go
morning,
everyone,
I'm
adam
theo,
independent
candidate
for
arlington
county
board,
I'm
here
to
say
that
bunny
doesn't
grow
on
trees,
even
here
in
arlington,
and
every
dollar
is
valuable.
The
budget
and
the
cip,
the
capital
improvement
plan,
represents
our
community
priorities.
Sadly,
now
the
county
board
considers
a
boat
house
as
a
priority.
K
19
million
dollars
in
the
cip
to
just
start
designing
and
building
part
of
the
boat
house
for
crew
and
kayaking
is
not
really
a
priority.
It
certainly
certainly
shouldn't
be
arlington.
County
is
in
a
hurry
because
it
has
signed
a
10-year
agreement
with
the
national
park
service.
But
that's
like
saying
you
have
to
buy
a
new
bmw,
because
the
dealer
ad
on
tv
said
it's
a
limited
time
offer
for
every
dollar.
There
are
better
uses.
K
L
L
It
is
not
enough
to
claim
that
you
are
listening
to
those
you
represent
and
invite
your
constituents
to
contact
you
to
engage
in
open
dialogue
if
you
do
not
follow
through
on
your
word,
when
your
constituents
email
you
to
ask
for
a
meeting
about
an
urgent
topic
coming
up
for
vote,
it's
important
to
listen
and
respond
promptly.
It
is
disingenuous
to
delay
responding
for
a
week
and
then
reply
to
grant
the
request
with
extremely
short
notice.

Hi,
the
county
has
done
a
great
job
in
setting
up
a
fairly
extensive
network
of
bike
lanes,
but
it
could
be
better.
Many
of
the
bike
lanes
in
the
county
have
various
parts
that
have
been
cut
and
filled
or
potholes
are
poorly
paved
and
the
maintenance
isn't
very
good,
and
the
county
also
often
has
problems
where
people
will
pull
off
or
park
in
the
bike
lane.
M
N
Thanks
so
I'm
here
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
lgbt
rights.
N
Unfortunately,
around
the
country
we've
seen
a
wave
of
recent
political
and
social
attacks
and
smears
against
members
of
the
lesbian,
gay,
bisexual
and
transgender
community,
ranging
from
attacks
on
youth
rights
to
attacks
on
the
integrity
of
queer
people,
and
unfortunately,
these
problems
are
often
exacerbated
by
state
violence
against
members
of
the
lgbt
community,
especially
immigrants,
who
can
often
be
deported
back
to
countries
where
they
face
greater
danger
or
sent
to
detention
centers
where
they
face
harassment,
humiliation,
abuse
and
even
sexual
assault
by
guards.
That's
why
I
support
kappa
ice
out
of
arlington.
A
At
this
point,
in
our
public
comment,
we're
going
to
pause
and
invite
la
colectiva
to
choose
one
member
of
your
group
that
can
speak
on
behalf
of
kappa,
I
said
of
arlington
and
the
cause
that
you're
rallying
for
today
we'll
pause
while
you
discuss
amongst
ourselves,
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
whichever
individual
speaker
consistent
with
our
one
speaker
per
topic.
Role
wants
to
speak
on
that
topic.
A
Yes,
sir,
yes,
sir,
we've
just
allowed
about
three
people.
We've
just
allowed
about
three
people
to
speak;
okay,
so
we're
gonna
we're
consistent
with
how
I
did
not
allow
more
than
one
person
to
speak
on
the
issue
last
month
and
gave
a
small
grace
period
to
those
who
came
up
with
different
topics,
I'm
going
to
do
the
same
thing
today
so
that
I
can
be
consistent.
I'd
like
to
invite
you
to
take
a
minute
to
decide
who
among
your
group,
would
like
to
speak
on
behalf
again.
A
This
is
following
an
open
public
hearing
last
month
on
this
same
topic.
We
appreciated
hearing
from
many
of
you
at
that
point
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
whichever
speaker
can
represent
la
colectiva
this
morning.
So
we'll
pause
for
a
minute,
as
you
all
decide
we'll
hear
that
speaker
and
then
we're
going
to
conclude
our
public
comment
period
this
morning.
Thank
you.
O
O
A
O
A
Mr
cindejas,
can
you
get
mr
sunday
house
if
you
could
please
leave
the
room
we'd
appreciate
that.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you
for
being
here
this
morning.
I
appreciate
that.
Thank
you
so
much
we're
going
to
reconvene
our
meeting
of
the
county
board
at
this
time.
Thank
you
so
much
so,
as
is
our
custom,
we
are
going
to
I'm
sorry
if
you're
not
able
to
participate
in
the
meeting
without
disrupting
it.
We
are
going
to
ask
you
to
leave
thanks
so
much.
Okay.
A
A
We
are
going
to
take
up
some
of
the
items
brought
forward
by
those
who
spoke
today,
just
to
give
brief
responses.
Mr
adams
and
colleagues,
thank
you
so
much
for
coming
in
for
sharing
that
personal
experience
about
your
duplex
built
in
1935.
We
appreciated
hearing
from
you
today,
mr
ware.
Thank
you
for
coming
in
with
your
preferences
about
communication.
I
think
your
suggestion
about
the
use
of
the
cap
system
was
a
particularly
interesting
one.
I
think
that's
one
for
us
to
take
out,
as
you
may
be
aware.
A
Certainly
the
most
recent
zoning
change
which
we
are
considering
has
been
communicated
extensively
about,
including
individual
letters
sent
to
150
000
homes,
but
we
absolutely
agree
there
are
ways
to
move
forward
and
really
appreciate
you're,
bringing
forward
some
specific
ones
there.
Mr
peoria
nice
to
see
you
thank
you
for
coming
in
about
pricing
on
single-family
neighborhoods
and
demand
relative
to
that
of
condos
or
apartments.
A
Definitely
appreciate
that
perspective,
and
as
with
mr
adams
and
clear
that
you
value
your
home
and
neighborhood,
I
will
note
we
do
collect
data
on
apartment,
rent
increasing.
Unfortunately,
we
are
not
seeing
apartments
go
vacant
or
offering
incentives,
we're
actually
seeing
rent
increasing
about
16
percent
average
on
apartments.
So
I
think
we
can
see
housing
of
all
types
is
in
serious
demand
in
arlington,
but
really
appreciate
your
being
here.
A
Mr
ferguson
do
appreciate
your
points
about
private
equity
and
how
that
can
be
changing
housing
markets
and
your
call
for
us
to
disincentivize
this.
This
is
absolutely
something
we've
been
in
conversation
with
about
with
financial
advisors,
including
our
treasurer's
office,
which
does
quite
a
bit
of
market
projections.
A
We
are
potentially
limited
in
our
tools
about
who
can
own
or
rent
housing
in
arlington
and
whether
those
need
to
be
local,
folks
or
not.
But
I
do
appreciate
you
raising
it
to
our
attention
as
an
area
for
further
study.
Miss
aquire,
thank
you
for
coming
in
regarding
solutions
to
the
commercial
or
specifically
office
vacancy
rate.
A
We
actually
have
an
agenda
on
our
an
item
on
our
consent
agenda,
so
stay
with
us
about
allowing
for
emerging
uses
such
as
micro,
fulfillment,
centers,
the
point
about
needing
to
come
up
with
custom
solutions
being
nimble
and
responsive
to
an
office
market.
That
is
changing
rapidly
is
one
that
is
very
much
felt
by
each
member
of
this
board,
as
well
as
our
leaders
of
economic
development
and
planning,
and
we
appreciate
your
suggestions,
mr
malpali
so
nice
to
hear
from
you
and
your
support
for
a
more
walkable
plan.
A
Langston
boulevard
really
appreciated
the
emphasis
on
your
son
and
your
aspirations
for
him
to
be
able
to
move
around
the
community
in
the
years
to
come,
dr
clement,
so
glad
you
brought
up
the
electronic
participation
policy.
We
will
actually
be
talking
about
this
in
greater
depth
on
tuesday.
A
You
are
right
that
everything
that
has
been
introduced
to
our
commissions
as
the
result
of
a
new
law,
if
you
can
believe
it,
that
law
is
actually
more
permissive
than
the
previous
state
under
virginia
open
meetings,
requirements
in
terms
of
allowing
commissioners
to
participate
virtually
when
their
health
age
or
any
other
status
would
dictate.
So
the
the
policy
that's
being
brought
forward
to
our
commissions
is
actually
to
take
advantage
of
new
flexibilities
in
the
law
rather
than
making
it
more
stringent.
We
agree
they
are
too
stringent.
A
We
have
been
working
with
many
representatives
of
our
commission.
I
myself
have
testified
in
front
of
the
general
assembly
multiple
times
to
try
to
create
more
opportunities
for
our
commissioners
to
participate
virtually
we've
seen
during
the
pandemic,
how
effective
that
is
for
so
many
people
and
how
that
allows
arlingtonians
from
all
walks
of
life
to
be
able
to
participate
more
effectively
in
our
civic
structure.
A
So,
in
short,
for
the
exact
reasons
you've
described,
we
have
pushed
for
this
legislative
change
to
be
more
permissive,
we
will
keep
pushing
to
be
more
permissive
still
in
the
future.
Mr
theo,
speaking
to
the
cip,
we
did
we
have
closed
the
public
comment
period
on
our
cip
and
we
will
be
adopting
it
on
tuesday,
but
appreciate
your
points
about
the
boat
house,
mr
embezzy,
regarding
the
bike
lane
network,
I'm
I'm
so
sorry
that
I
didn't
get
to
give
your
comments
the
full
attention
I
wish
they
had.
A
Perhaps
we
can
follow
up
and
I
can
invite
my
colleagues
to
see
more
if
they,
if
they
would.
This
is
sort
of
unfortunate
consequence
of
the
disruption
means
that
I
don't
always
get
to
hear
residents
who
come
forward
so
really
appreciate
your
coming
in
and
I'll
turn
to
mr
dorsey.
If
you
wanted
to
speak.
E
I
just
wanted
to
speak
to
that.
You
know
the
desire
to
make
sure
that
arlington's
bike
infrastructure
is
as
extensive
as
it
needs
to
being
kept
in
as
great
a
repair
as
it
ought
to
be
in
order
to
facilitate
bike
riding
to
increase
demand,
but
also
to
make
it
a
safer
experience
for
those
who
are
already
using
it
or
the
essence
of
the
remarks
and
and
ones
that
I
think,
are
very
much
a
part
of
our
our
transportation
planning
and
also
some
recent
efforts
that
we
have
undergone
to.
E
You
know
really
look
at
road
facilities
broadly,
not
just
in
terms
of
you
know
the
way
cars
travel
bike
lanes,
but
also
sidewalk
conditions
as
well,
which
are
direct
feeders
into
bike
lanes.
So
very
much
appreciate
that,
and-
and
we
always
welcome
your
encouragement
as
to
other
areas
that
we
need
to
explore.
P
P
Mr
bessie
also
raised
the
issue
of
enforcing
on
put
on
bike
lanes,
which
is
which
is
an
interesting
thing,
because
it
changes
over
time
and
we
we
always
welcome
the
the
ice
on
the
street,
to
see
where,
where
there
are
hot
spots,
where
enforcement
doesn't
seem
to
be
working.
So.
O
A
Up
with
you,
so
we
can
continue
the
conversation.
Thank
you
so
much
for
coming
in
okay,
we
appreciate
the
multiple
people
who
came
in
to
speak
in
support
of
kappa
for
arlington.
As
you
all
know,
we
had
an
extensive
public
hearing
where
we
stayed
for
every
comment
that
people
wish
to
make.
Last
month
on
tuesday,
we
will
take
up
adoption
of
an
arlington
county
trust
policy
and
appreciate
your
coming
in
without
further
comment.
We
are
going
to
move
on
to
our
consent
agenda.
Ms
jacobs,
have
any
item
been
pulled
from
our
consent
agenda?
A
A
R
A
Any
opposed
okay,
seeing
none
that
moves
unanimously,
I'm
going
to
take
just
a
moment
to
talk
about
a
couple
of
those
items
we
just
passed
because
they
are
on
consent
because
they
are
non-controversial
not
because
they
are
unimportant,
and
so
we
want
to
take
the
opportunity
to
highlight
a
couple
of
those
actions
and
I
believe
we've
got
a
few
slides
to
accompany
them.
A
One
that
we
are
particularly
excited
about
is
an
ordinance
to
establish
a
user
fee
for
charging
electric
vehicles
at
county
government-owned
charging
stations
that
will
be
effective
today
it
will
set
a
rate
of
14
and
a
half
cents
per
kilowatt
hour
that
allows
us
to
recover
the
cost
of
electricity
and
administrative
overhead.
There
are
seven
charging
stations
around
the
county
and
having
this
kind
of
structure
is
going
to
allow
us
to
move
forward
with,
we
hope
more
of
them.
This
is
really
important.
We
are,
of
course,
developing
a
more
comprehensive
strategy
about
decarbonizing
transportation.
A
That
is
true
for
county
fleet
vehicles.
It
is
true
for
private
vehicles,
arlington
public
schools,
vehicles-
and
this
is
a
really
important
step.
So
if
you
partake
of
the
charging
infrastructure
at
longbridge
aquatic
center
or
others,
you
will
see
this
rate
go
into
effect
today,
and
we
are
looking
forward
to
this
being
one
of
many
ongoing
steps
as
part
of
our
community
energy
plan
and
our
carbon
neutrality
by
2050
goal.
A
S
A
Okay,
moving
on
to
talk
about
the
arlington
commission
for
the
arts
arts
grants
in
arlington,
we
really
appreciate
the
work
of
the
arlington
commission
on
the
arts.
If
I
could
bother
our
clerk
to
move
the
slides
just
one
forward.
Thank
you.
We're
really
excited
about
this.
The
arlington
commission
for
the
arts
in
particular,
has
been
focused
under
the
leadership
of
chairman
anika
quinana,
on
infusing
the
concept
of
equity
in
arts
and
who
makes
art
in
arlington
county
and
since
the
adoption
of
their
equity
statement.
A
This
past
year,
applicants
were
at
were
asked
to
include
and
address
additional
questions
about
prioritizing
equity
and
inclusion
within
the
scope
of
their
work.
So
out
of
24
applicants,
18
from
non-profit
groups
and
six
from
individual
artist
groups,
nine
supported
equity
uniquely
prioritized
equity
inclusion
within
the
scope
of
their
work.
So
we
are
really
excited
about
that.
A
Continue
to
elevate
that
as
a
model,
I
think
for
work
across
our
commissions
and
are
really
excited
to
see
about
all
of
the
ways
that
these
contributions
of
these
funded
artists
will
enrich
the
cultural
life
of
arlington.
Finally,
and
to
ms
akura's
point,
we
authorized
advertisements
for
public
hearings
to
include
amendments
to
the
sp,
the
columbia,
pike
special
revitalization
district,
specifically
allowing
micro,
fulfillment
centers.
A
So
those
are,
of
course,
the
the
last
mile
grocery
delivery
and
all
of
the
new
ways
in
which
commerce
is
being
conducted
in
our
county
and,
of
course,
nationwide.
There
was
significant
public
engagement
by
county
staff.
We
heard
from
a
lot
of
the
neighborhoods
surrounding
columbia,
pike
about
these
different
types
of
uses,
and
we
really
appreciate
their
engagement.
A
Ultimately,
this
is
about
sort
of
the
first
step
of
or
a
model
of
providing
a
quicker
process
for
the
establishment
of
commercial
uses
that
are
not
clearly
defined
within
the
zoning
ordinance
because
they
were
not
conceived
of
this
in
the
zoning
ordinance
at
the
time
it
was
created.
So
this
item
is
actually
the
very
first
application
to
utilize
that
brand
new
process
about
considering
zoning
strategies
for
uses
so
just
to
highlight
that
special
process
that
more
nimble
process
meant
streamlined,
engagement,
a
broadly
scoped
rta.
A
That's
what
we
just
voted
on
a
descriptive
summary
of
the
proposed
amendments
and
the
advertisement
and
then
we'll
take
up
that
amendment
itself.
We
are
again
just
seeing
really
dramatic
shifts
and
changes
in
conventional
activities
and
what
counts
as
conventional
activities
in
commercial
spaces.
Is
we
try
to
make
sure
that
arlington
has
a
healthy,
commercial
and
retail
market
and
office
market,
as
well
as
arlingtonians
having
access
to
the
services
that
are
really
important
to
them?
A
We
think
this
kind
of
dynamic
approach
to
zoning
ordinance
amendments
is
only
going
to
get
more
important,
so
there
are
many
other
items,
of
course,
on
the
consent
agenda.
We
encourage
those
who
might
be
interested
to
take
a
look,
and
we
thank
our
staff
for
their
contributions
to
bring
that
forward.
So
we
are
ready,
I
believe,
to
move
forward
to
our
regular
item.
Madam
clerk,
could
you
call
the
first
please.
C
T
U
Good
morning,
members
of
the
board
for
the
record,
I'm
erin
schreiber
with
the
planning
division,
and
thank
you
for
having
me
today
what
I'm
here
to
present
on,
and
I
would
add
there
we
go.
I
do
have
a
short
presentation
for
this
item.
This
is
a
used
permanent
amendment
for
the
heights
building,
which
is
formerly
known
as
wilson
school.
This
effectively
is
phase
two
of
the
project.
U
U
This
is
part
of
the
larger
west
roslin
area
plan,
and
here
we
have
highlighted
phase
one,
which
is
the
wilson
orchestra,
the
heights
building
that
is
now
fully
operational.
It
does
contain
the
hb
woodlawn
program,
as
well
as
a
shriver
program.
Phase
two,
which
is
highlighted
here
in
green,
currently,
is
an
open
field.
It
is
the
former
site
of
the
temporary
fire
station
and
it
is
this
phase
two
area
that
is
the
subject
of
this
use.
Permit
amendment
on
the
right.
We
have
a
couple
images,
just
showing
you
what
the
current
conditions
look
like.
U
Just
from
a
background
perspective,
the
zoning
it
is
zoned
s3a,
which
is
a
special
district,
where
schools
are
a
use
permitted
by
way
of
use,
permit
approval
and
on
the
right,
you
can
see
the
general
land
use
plan
designation
for
the
site,
which
is
public.
It's
also
again,
it's
located
within
the
west
ross
and
coordinated
redevelopment
district.
U
As
I
mentioned
earlier,
the
property
is
a
component
of
the
west
roslin
area
plan,
which
was
adopted
by
the
board
in
2017,
and
it
included
a
number
of
elements
which
were
two
residential
buildings
shown
here
as
the
east
and
west
buildings.
Those
are
the
two
structures
that
were
constructed
by
penzance.
They
do
include
a
fire
station
in
the
ground
floor,
as
well
as
a
reconstructed
rosten
highlands
park.
U
You
have
the
queens
court
apartment
project
on
the
north
side
of
18th
street,
which
also
includes
a
small
portion
of
roslyn
highlands
park
and
then
there's
the
aps
site,
which
does
now
include
the
heights
building.
All
of
these
elements
actually
have
been
constructed
and
are
operational.
With
the
exception
of
this
phase,
two
for
the
aps,
property
which
we're
discussing
today
when
the
use
permit
for
the
aps
wilson
school
again
now
the
heights
building
was
approved
by
the
board
in
2017.
U
It
did
include
the
five-story
school,
it's
about
180,
000
square
feet.
It
has
a
775
student
design
capacity
again,
it
does
include
the
the
hp
woodlawn
and
the
shriver
program,
which
is
accommodate
students
with
special
needs
and
then
also
there
are
a
hundred
parking
spaces
located
off
site.
So
when
this
use
permit
was
approved
in
2017,
the
board
effectively
approved
a
modification
to
allow
zero
parking
spaces
on
the
aps.
U
Property
and
the
board
actually
took
an
action
with
the
approval
to
not
support
construction
of
a
garage
with
a
field
in
this
phase
two
area,
the
reason
being
the
purpose
of
that
deferral
was
to
allow
for
the
school
to
open
and
for
data
to
be
collected
about
how
much
parking
actually
was
needed
by
aps.
In
addition
to
those
hundred
spaces
that
were
being
provided
in
the
adjacent
building,
here
are
some
images
from
the
2017
approval
of
the
building
in
the
top
left
very
similar
to
what
it
looks
like
today.
U
Aps
has
actually
reduced
the
number
of
parking
spaces
from
what
was
originally
proposed
in
2017
at
this
stage,
they're
proposing
a
61
space
garage
that
would
accommodate
a
number
of
functions
from
a
parking
perspective,
including
staff
parking
spaces,
some
visitor
parking
spaces,
additional
ada
compatible
spaces.
Both
standard
vehicles,
as
well
as
vans,
does
accommodate
some
aps.
Maintenance
vehicle
parking
as
well
as
some
additional
loading.
It
also
provides
covered
bike
storage
for
both
staff
and
students
provides
an
improved
access
point
to
the
shriver
program,
which
will
be
here
at
the
corner
of
18th
and
quinn.
U
I
just
want
to
go
through
each
one
of
those
and
show
you
how
the
project
has
evolved.
Since
you
last
heard
this
in
may
here,
we're
starting
with
18th
street
north
aps
has
agreed
with
the
staff
recommendation
to
retain
the
on-street
parking
lane
on
the
north
side
of
18th
street.
This
was
important
from
a
staff
perspective
to
ensure
full
functionality
of
this
street
and
ride
the
street,
as
recommended
by
the
west
roslin
area
plan.
U
From
a
streetscape
perspective,
the
initial
design
it
had
a
bifurcated
streetscape
element
that
effectively
was
almost
23
feet
in
width.
However,
it
did
have
street
trees
and
lights
in
the
middle
of
that
streetscape.
So
it
was
broken
into
two
elements.
With
a
seven
foot,
eight
inch
clear
zone
at
the
back
of
sidewalk,
then
you
would
have
the
street
trees,
and
then
there
was
a
ten
foot,
clear,
sidewalk
adjacent
to
the
face
of
the
garage
with
the
retention
of
the
on-road
or
on-street
parking
lane.
U
That
streetscape
has
been
narrowed
to
about
15
feet,
but
what
that
does
is
it
allows
for
a
10-foot,
clear
sidewalk
at
the
back
of
sidewalk,
which
is
shown
here
in
the
in
the
middle
image
and
just
to
highlight?
This
is
consistent
with
the
west
roslin
area
plan
recommendation
from
a
streetscape
perspective
and
then
from
an
operational
standpoint,
aps
has
agreed
to
a
staff
proposed
condition
which
is
condition
number
67
which
will
govern
the
operations
of
18th
street
during
the
pickup
and
drop-off.
U
So
what
we
did
was
we
worked
with
aps
to
try
and
find
ways
to
soften
the
appearance
of
this
above
grade
element.
So
we
worked
with
aps
to
provide
additional
street
trees,
as
highlighted
here
to
improve
the
visible
porosity
of
the
entrance
for
the
shriver
students,
as
you
can
see
here,
to
provide
what
was
an
aps
proposal
to
put
some
banners
on
the
fencing
to
help
you
know
mask
or
just
to
to
mask
some
of
those
features,
but
also
to
help
celebrate
the
school.
U
Here
we
have
some
more
street
trees
along
18th
street,
as
well
as
on
the
eastern
side
adjacent
to
roslin
highlands
park.
But
what
you
also
see
in
this
image
is
there
are
a
number
of
ways
that
the
public
will
be
able
to
access
ros
or
this
field
when
it's
not
being
used
by
the
school.
U
You
have
a
stair
over
here.
You
have
a
stair
element
connecting
to
roslyn
highlands
park
as
well
as
a
ramp
feature,
and
then
there's
an
additional
ramp
over
here
at
the
southern
end
of
the
park,
which
is
adjacent
to
the
school.
This
is
kind
of
where
dpr
maintenance
vehicles
will
be
able
to
access
the
field
from
a
community
engagement
perspective.
This
youth
permit
amendment
was
heard
by
the
public
facility
review
committee
in
april,
then
the
park
and
rec
commission
later
that
month.
U
Ultimately,
the
transportation
commission
heard
this
and
they
recommended
deferral,
and
the
planning
commission
heard
this
on
may
2nd.
They
also
recommended
deferral
and
then
the
county
board
acted
on
the
county,
manager's
recommendation
for
deferral
in
may.
Since
that
time
the
transportation
commission
heard
this
again
on
june
30th
or
they
heard
the
revised
proposal.
The
recommendation
was
for
approval.
U
Ultimately,
county
manager's
recommendation
is
to
approve
the
use
permit,
as
proposed,
along
with
modifications
for
parking
reduction,
as
well
as
setbacks
to
allow
for
the
structure,
as
shown
in
the
use
permit
plan.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
following
the
applicant's
presentation,
the
planning
commission
presentation
in
any
public
speakers.
Thank
you.
A
Trevor,
thank
you
so
much.
We
appreciate
that.
I
know
our
apple
can
today
is
the
arlington
public
schools,
mr
chambers,
mr
burgan
I'll,
look
to
you.
If
you
have
a
presentation
or
comments
for
us.
V
Yes,
we
do
have
a
presentation.
I
had
a
little
bit
of
technical
glitch
this
morning,
but
we're
working
through
it.
So
hopefully
the
presentation
will
be
up
momentarily.
W
V
Man
of
chair
and
and
members
of
the
board,
I
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
present
this
important
project,
which
will
provide
many
benefits
to
the
aps:
students
and
staff
at
the
heights
site.
My
name
is
jeff
chambers,
I'm
director
of
design
and
construction
with
arlington
public
schools
and
I'm
joined
by
my
colleague
ben
bergen
who's.
The
assistant
director
of
design
and
construction.
V
Are
we
up
and
running
it?
Next?
Okay,
since
the
school
opening
in
september
of
2019,
much
of
the
site
has
functioned
using
temporary
conditions,
primarily
around
building
access,
exterior
physical
education
spaces
and
we've
learned
a
great
deal
in
the
process
about
how
it
works
and
some
of
the
issues
and
concerns
that
that
we
have
with
the
facility
the
this
project
referred
to
as
phase
two
will
complete
the
development
of
the
site,
with
scope
originally
intended
to
be
on
site,
but
was
delayed
to
accommodate
the
temporary
arlington
county
fire
station.
V
The
process
for
determining
the
scope
for
phase
two
included
exploration
of
several
alternatives
aimed
at
solving
the
observable
shortcomings
and
afforded
afforded
by
the
temporary
conditions
and
the
aps.
Superintendent
and
school
board
settled
on
the
scope
presented
today
and
including
the
project
in
the
fy
20
22
to
24
capital
improvement
plan.
Our
rcip
and
the
project
was
recently
reaffirmed,
with
inclusion
in
the
fy
2023
uh-32
cip,
adopted
by
the
school
board
on
in
june
at
its
core.
V
This
project
is
about
improving
universal
access
to
the
building
field
and
throughout
the
site,
with
the
emphasis
on
providing
inclusive
and
welcoming
environment.
For
the
students
with
any
abilities,
this
is
particularly
important
at
this
site,
because
many
of
the
students
have
disabilities
with
significant
support
needs
so
very
critical
to
to
our
program.
V
The
project
also
provides
the
required
exterior
physical
education
space.
It
will
be
also
used
by
the
schools,
only
team
for
ultimate
frisbee
practice.
It
is
not
large
enough
for
competition
in
ultimate
frisbee
and
it
provides
the
added
benefit
of
a
turf
field
for
community
use
after
school
hours,
as
was
intended
in
the
2017
presentation.
V
Mr
schreiber's
presentation
provided
a
comprehensive
overview
of
the
project
elements,
including
revisions
aps
completed
following
the
may
county
board.
Action
to
defer
the
focus
of
aps
presentation
will
be
going
into
greater
detail
regarding
the
field.
The
proposed
field
elevation
in
the
years
since
the
2017
original
proposal,
aps's
commitment
to
universal
design
principles
has
broadened
in
respect
to
lessons
learned
from
completed
capital
projects,
multiple
completed
capital
projects
and
an
increased
community
sentiment
on
furthering
inclusivity.
V
This,
in
combination
with
the
more
conservative
aps
posture
to
security,
provides
the
two
primary
reasons
why
the
aps
2022
proposal
modified
the
height
of
the
field.
You
know
for
the
inclusivity,
inclusivity
and
and
the
security
the
2017
proposal
aligned
the
field
elevation
with
the
midpoint
of
the
adjacent
rosslyn
highlands
park,
but
inevitably
would
have
created
barriers
to
accessing
the
field
from
the
heights
building,
as
learned
by
utilizing
the
the
grass
field
for
the
years
since
the
school
has
opened,
which
is
very
close
to
that
elevation.
V
The
2017
proposal
also
did
not
fully
resolve
required
means
of
egress
from
the
field,
and
two
of
those
egresses
are
required
to
be
accessible.
If
you
noted,
the
the
previous
presentation
had
one
accessible
egress,
which
was
for
student
and
the
public,
the
current
proposal
includes
the
higher
field
elevation
and
one
aligns
with
the
heights
building
level,
one
which
provides
unrestricted
access
to
and
from
the
building,
as
well
as
providing
two
accessible
connections
to
and
from
the
rosalind
highland
park.
V
The
site
is
not
flat
and
and
leaving
the
natural
slope
of
the
site
to
influence
the
physical
access
and
visibility
to
the
field
along
all
four
frontages.
The
slope
is
greatest
along
rosalind
highlands
park
and
north
quinn
street
frontage
frontage
is
each
exceeding
five
feet
of
elevation
change
along
the
short
sides
of
the
field.
V
Aps
believes
that
eliminating
barriers
to
accessing
the
field
to
and
from
the
building
is
vital
to
the
inclusive
nature
of
education,
which
is
why
the
proposal
prioritizes
alignment
of
the
building
in
the
field.
This
provides
zero
barriers
from
all
major
building
entrances
and
exits
that
face
the
field
across
an
extensive
distance.
V
The
two
accessible
connections
to
and
from
rosalind
highland
park
at
the
midpoint
and
adjacent
to
the
building
are
also
provided,
and
then
we
have
also
added
stair
access
to
and
from
18th
street
north
and
north
quinn
street,
which
are
additions
to
the
project
since
the
2017
proposal.
So
we've
increased
the
accessibility
to
the
field.
V
The
proposal
also
means
that
the
field
access
from
the
building
occurs
within
a
fence
perimeter
that
can
be
secured
during
the
school
day
and
providing
the
largest
possible
synthetic
turf
field
for
school
and
community
use.
The
fencing
also
keeps
balls
and
frisbees
from
from
going
out
into
the
street
and
into
the
park
again.
V
I
want
to
say
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
discuss
this
important
final
step
to
the
heights
building
site
development,
and
we
have
some
renderings
that
that
are
on
the
screen
right
now
that
show
the
the
images
which
I
think
aaron
did
did
go
through
and
ben,
and
I
are
available
to
respond
to
any
questions.
The
county
board
members
may
have.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chambers.
We
appreciate
that.
Please
do
stay
close
and
I
think
these
renderings
in
particular
may
be
helpful
as
we
start
to
get
into
some
of
the
conversations
before
we
do
that
we'll
have
both
public
comment,
but
first
advisory
group
center,
represented
by
the
chair
of
the
planning
commission
today,
mr
weir,
as
mr
weir
takes
his
seat.
Madam
clerk,
that
is
the
only
commission
that
we
have
speaking
today.
Is
that
right?
Yes,
that's
correct
excellent!
A
We
did
hear
in
writing
from
the
transportation
commission
as
well,
but,
commissioner,
we're
welcome.
We
know
you,
you
too
have
had
a
busy
month
on
the
planning
commission
and
we
appreciate
your
insights
on
this
item
and
others.
X
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you,
members
of
the
county
board
for
the
record.
My
name
is
daniel
weir,
and
I
am
here
on
behalf
of
the
county
planning
commission.
Before
I
start,
I
need
to
say
something
about
this
commission.
X
The
commission
comprises
myself
and
three
past
chairs
of
the
commission,
its
members
between
us,
probably
a
century
of
collected
experience
and
civic
associations,
probably
a
century
of
collected
experience
in
county
commissions
and
working
groups.
X
Its
members
are
nonprofit
attorneys,
professional
planners
with
phds
in
the
field,
architects
and
policy
professionals,
and
are
fiercely
concerned
about
issues
like
equity,
improving
the
ability
of
the
planning
commission
to
break
from
the
historic,
exclusionary
function
of
planning
commissions
as
an
institution
generally
to
one
that
is
a
partner
and
helper.
In
the
vision
of
the
county's
elected
leadership.
You
I
don't
mean
that
I
I
mean
that
affirmatively.
I
apologize
for
my
tone,
your
vision
for
a
more
equitable
and
well-planned
county.
X
X
It
has
been
a
privilege
and
an
honor
to
serve
the
county
in
this
role
and
to
serve
my
peers
when
they
elected
me
chair-
and
I
say
this
because
I
hope
that
I
ask
that
you
understand
that
the
commission's
recommendation
is
not
only
unprecedented
but
also
reflects
a
superlatively,
thoughtful
and
informed
consideration
by
a
superlatively,
thoughtful
and
informed
commission.
X
As
you
will
note,
in
our
letter
the
commission
finds
that
the
use
permit
applicant
is
substantially
not
in
accord
with
the
comprehensive
plan
and
fails
to
materially
conform
to
the
wrap
and
the
rosalind
sector
plan
and
unanimously
recommends
denial
and
unanimously
finds
non-conformance
and
with
various
planning
documents.
We
had
one
public
speaker
in
several
letters,
including
a
letter
of
objection
from
a
former
chair
of
the
planning
commission
and
chair
of
the
rosalind
west
rosland
area
plan
team,
steve
cole.
X
I'm
going
to
focus
the
rest
of
my
comments
this
morning
on
some
context.
Around
the
commission's
deliberation
in
this
case,
and
some
related
ones
rather
than
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
the
substance
of
the
recommendation
for
reference.
Our
letter,
starting
at
page
3,
includes
a
high
level
overview
of
the
areas
where
the
commission
found
material
departures
from
planning
guidance.
X
The
plan
split
roslin
highlands
park
across
the
western
terminus
of
the
envisioned
18th
street
and
tied
the
park
playground
and
court
together
across
a
small
multi-use
playing
field
that
facilitated
sight
lines
and
encouraged
movement
between
the
two
parts
of
the
park.
The
low
elevation
of
the
playing
field,
showcased
the
architecture
and
programming
of
the
heights
school
for
pedestrians,
on
18th
street
and
for
residents
of
queen's
court
no
amount
of
street
trees
or
colored
banners
or
other
mitigation
is
going
to
change.
X
The
fact
that,
from
the
perspective
of
an
arlentonian
on
18th
street
on
the
ground
on
18th
street,
the
field
is
proposed,
severs
the
north
and
south
halves
of
what
was
a
united
vision
for
this
area.
Now
the
commission
routinely
hears
applicants
who
have
identified
programmatic
preferences
that
are
inconsistent
with
the
adopted
plan,
and
those
applicants
tell
us
that
the
adopted
plan
requires
some
change
from
the
plan
in
order
to
this
in
order
to
facilitate
the
programmatic
goals
and
agendas.
X
An
example
of
this
is
in
crystal
city,
where
an
applicant
had
asked
in
developing
a
second
crystal
city
metro
station
entrance
to
build
that
entrance
around
a
building
that
looked
conspicuously
like
shops.
That
could
be
rented
out
to
tenants,
rather
than
what
the
plan
had
called
for.
The
commission
asked
is
what
you
are
proposing
good
for
the
county
is
the
departure
that
you
are
proposing
good
for
the
community,
or
is
it
simply
good
for
you?
X
X
A
concern
like
security
would
have
liked
to
have
heard
a
little
bit
more
about
that
concern
in
the
process
as
it
came
to
us
before
today,
or
to
weigh
in
on
whether
this
preference
or
the
one
from
the
2017
use
permit
application
better
meets
programmatic
needs
and
programmatic
needs
include
highly
laudable
things
like
access
for
people
who
are
using
the
facility.
The
commission
did
ask
whether
or
not
the
parking
garage
and
the
covered
walkway
were
one
project
or
whether
they
could
be
desegregated.
X
X
A
I
certainly
respect
that
chairman
chairman.
Thank
you
very
much.
We
appreciate
your
comments
greatly.
Do
we
have
public
speakers
on
this
topic.
Y
Good
morning,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
appa,
the
owner
of
queen's
court,
which
is
a
near
neighbor
of
of
the
heights
and
the
applicant
as
well
as
proudly
an
original
member
of
the
western
roslin
area,
planning
working
group
so
kind
of
wearing
both
those
hats.
Y
I
I
was
very
glad
to
have
been
able
to
listen
to
the
two
and
a
half
hour
long
planning,
commission
meeting
on
this
matter
last
week,
and
I
can
attest
to
this-
is
a
really
tough
matter
where
you
have
the
programmatic
needs
of
schools
that
want
to
address
equity
and
inclusion
issues
on
their
end,
but
the
reality
that
it's
not
in
keeping
with
a
lot
of
the
planning
discussions
that
happened
back
in
2017
when
we
were
together.
Y
So
you
know
knowing
that
that
you
know
county
planning
staff
and
the
school
staff
have
worked
hard
over
the
last
months
to
try
to
resolve
those
conflicts.
I'm
not
here
to
speak.
The
technical
elements
of
you
know
of
the
changes
that
could
be
made
were
made
around
the
elevation
of
the
field.
But
to
say
you
know
as
we
go
forward.
Y
If
this
matter
is
is
not
settled
today
or
or
frankly,
as
you
move
forward
into
construction,
I
think
it's
important
from
a
community
engagement
perspective
that
we
work
hard
with
aps
to
ensure
that
community
engagement
is
done
with
queen's
court.
We
have
250
households
that
live
there.
Hundreds
of
people
that
have
are
going
to
be
impacted
by
construction
that
could
give
feedback
on
design
changes
and
we
did
not
have
the
opportunity
to
do
that.
Y
We,
of
course,
were
given
proper
notice
from
the
county,
but
I
do
think
a
site
plan
condition
to
the
applicant
and
I've.
I've
been
the
recipient
of
such
a
condition
in
the
past,
where
really
important
to
put
on
the
applicant
the
need
to
be
explicit
and
hold
those
meetings.
So
thank
you.
R
Good
morning
good
morning-
and
let
me
be
very
clear-
I
am
here
not
in
my
role
as
chair
of
the
sports
commission,
but
as
an
individual
in
arlington.
This
actually
didn't
come
onto
our
pop
under
my
radar
until
yesterday,
when
I
got
back
from
vacation.
So
that's
why
there's
no
official
sports
commission
take
on
this?
I'm
actually
going
to
speak
in
favor
of
this
proposal.
R
A
Thank
you
very
much,
mr
mingus.
We
appreciate
that
believe
that,
as
our
final
public
speaker
is
that
right,
correct,
okay,
great
the
conversation
is
now
with
the
board.
I
think
why
don't
we
just
take
a
moment
for
some
discussion
and
then
I'm
going
to
look
for
a
motion.
I
suspect
I
think
well,
rather,
obviously,
our
issues
fall
into
two
areas.
A
They
are
both
the
circulation
and
issues
on
18th
street,
which
I
know
our
staff
and
the
aps.
Planning
staff
have
used
the
past
couple
of
months
to
resolve
and
then
there
are
the
issues
regarding
the
elevation
of
the
field,
so
it
may
be
easiest
to
begin
with
the
18th
street
piece.
So
let
me
open
the
floor
for
questions
on
that.
As
my
colleagues
are
organizing
their
thoughts.
I
might
ask
mr
schreiber,
if
you
wouldn't
mind,
walking
us
through
one
more
time
the
cross
section.
A
One
of
the
things
I'm
really
trying
to
understand
is
the
is
the
sidewalk
width
on
18th
street.
We
had
heard
from
the
special
education
parent
teacher
association
concerns
about
those
sidewalk
widths,
and
I
know
you
talked
about
kind
of
the
10
foot
wide
minimum
clear
zone
adjacent
to
the
curb
I'm
trying
to
understand
kind
of
how
that
maps
against
what
I
believe
were
10-foot
sidewalks
called
for
in
the
the
original
wraps
plan.
U
Thank
you
for
that
too.
Thank
you
for
that
question,
and
I
also
have
my
colleague
from
the
department
of
environmental
services
rob
gibson
online,
who
can
also
help
answer
any
specific
questions
or
provide
some
more
detail
here,
but
I
did
want
to
show
you
this
slide
on
the
right.
It
does
show
the
streetscape
section
or
the
sidewalk
section
for
18th
street.
U
The
initial
design,
which
is
on
the
far
left,
which
is
what
was
initially
proposed.
It
was
at
22,
feet,
8
inches
and
the
way
that
aps
got
to
that
dimension
was
by
taking
away
the
parking
lane
on
the
south
side
of
18th
street.
So
that's
what
gave
them
the
wider
area
and
what
that
included
was
a
clear
zone
of
seven
feet.
Eight
inches
at
the
back
of
the
curb,
then
a
five
foot
wide
planting
area.
That
would
also
include
street
lights.
U
It
then
has
the
10-foot
wide
area,
and
then
it
has
three
trees
at
the
face
of
the
garage
in
a
raised
planter
area
in
order
to
help
soften
that
can
provide
some
seating
for
students
who
can
utilize
that,
while
waiting
for
a
bus,
but
it
does
allow
for
the
clear
passage
directly
into
the
school-
and
so
that
was
the
recommendation.
That's
what
aps
has
proposed,
but
I
would
also
defer
to
aps
to
speak
about
it
from
a
functionality
perspective
and
why
they
settled
on
this.
V
Yes,
good
good
morning
again,
I
I
think
that
even
in
prior
to
the
2017
submission,
we
were
having
lots
of
debate
with
regard
to.
How
would
this
work?
V
The
other
issue
with
our
buses
is:
they
have
big
mirrors
that
stick
out
of
the
side
and
we're
always
losing
mirrors
on
trees.
So
one
of
the
things
where
we
have
a
pickup
and
drop
off,
we
try
to
avoid
that
and
I
think
what
we've
accomplished
with
the
revised
design
is.
We
literally
have
a
10
foot
clear
sidewalk.
V
There
probably
will
be
some
signposts
that
have
to
be
there
to
to
regulate
the
parking,
but
we
may
even
look
at
that,
and
maybe
that
can
go
back
into
the
planner,
but
I
think
that
we,
we
had
a
very
collaborative
conversation
with
the
county.
I
think,
even
in
our
initial
design,
you
have
seven
foot
eight
clear
and
then
you
have
a
ten
foot
clear
walkway
behind
that.
V
If
one
of
the
reasons
we
proposed
the
seven
foot
eight
or
using
the
the
parking
lane
as
sidewalk
was
because
we
wanted
to
keep
the
trees,
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
happened,
and
I
think
the
compromise
is
we're
going
to
use
columnar
trees
they're
going
to
be
in
a
planter
adjacent
to
the
building
which
helps
soften
that
facade
as
well
and,
at
the
same
time
provides
functionality
for
the
students
and
it'll
be
a
management
issue.
V
There's
no
reason:
hb
students
can't
wait
on
the
field
when
their
late
bus
arrives.
They
can
go
out
the
end
of
the
field
and
head
out
that
way.
So
it's
just
a
change
in
how
they
use
it
and
a
change
in
management.
But
I
think
we've
come
up
with
probably
the
best
solution.
That's
that's
similar
to
the
wraps
program
or
what
was
what
was
asked
for,
as
part
of
that,
and
also
is,
is
functional.
V
With
regard
to
it's
not
going
to
knock
the
mirrors
off
the
buses,
we
can
load
and
unload
and
still
have
five
foot
clear,
sidewalk
right
now
we're
fighting
with
a
seven
foot
wide
sidewalk
and
it's
really
not
enough
space.
So
I
think
I
think
we've
come
to
what
is
the
best
compromise
we
could
come
to.
That
does
also
serve
the
needs.
A
That
is
incredibly
helpful,
so
I
think
I
had
been
struggling
to
understand.
Were
we
losing
some
of
the
clear
with
on
the
sidewalk?
The
answer
is
sort
of
not
really
it's
just
that
you're
losing
that
almost
duplication
of
the
same
amount
of
clear
width
on
the
other
side
of
the
tree.
So
that's
really
helpful.
A
Obviously,
in
all
cases,
but
particularly
with
the
population
served
by
the
shriver
school,
we
care
a
lot
about
mobility
devices
being
able
to
move
through,
and
so
knowing
that
the
the
10
foot,
clear
width
is
maintained
and
how
I
I
find
really
helpful.
So
I
appreciate
that
mr
carrentonis
and
mr
francy.
P
Thank
you,
ma'am
chair,
just
as
a
comment
of
that.
Yes,
we
we
we
gained
this
up
run
of
10
feet,
that's
true
the
trees
that
will
be
at
the
ace
and
would
won't
be
able
to
provide
all
the
the
the
shade
that
we
want,
but
I
I
believe
it's
more
practical,
but
to
that
so
today
can
can
you
explain
the
difference
between
how
students
and
staff
are
entering
the
building
today
and
what
the
proposal
achieves?
What
is
the
proposal
going
to
change
exactly.
V
Right
now,
when
the
schreiber
students
arrive
at
the
building,
they
get
off
the
buses,
they
all
have
aids
that
take
them
into
the
building
and
what
they're
currently
doing
is
they're
going
up
towards
rosalind
highland
park.
There's
a
temporary
covered
walkway,
because
these
students
are
are
very
vulnerable,
don't
move
very
quickly,
even
in
their
their
their
mobility
devices
and
their
their
taken
under
the
covered
walkway
and
up
into
the
building
onto
the
level
one.
V
The
schreiber
program
is
on
level
one
as
well
as
g1,
which
is
the
floor
below
that
and
that's
how
the
schreiber
students
come.
They
they
start
arriving
before
the
hb
students,
arrive
and
arrival
is
not
usually
the
most
critical
issue.
The
the
departure
is
when
things
get
really
crowded,
because,
again
you
have
the
aids
taking
the
schreiber
students
down
the
ramp
and
it's
actually
the
the
same
doors
that
currently
the
the
hb
students
hp,
woodlawn
students
are
exiting,
and
you
know,
leaving
the
building
as
well.
V
So
everything
is
happening
at
that
end
with
the
change.
What
we
anticipate
happening
is
is
the
majority
of
the
schreiber
students
will
go
towards
quinn
street
and
the
majority
of
hb
students
will
come
and
go
towards
rosalind
highland
park
and
into
that
end
of
the
building.
So
we
will
actually
end
up
changing
the
flow
of
students
so
that
they're
not
all
going
to
the
same
place.
So
I
think
that's
going
to
help
as
well.
V
We
still
see
the
loading
and
unloading
and,
and
the
10
foot
wide
will
sidewalk
during
arrival,
probably
will
not
be
a
huge
issue.
I
mean
you
can
go
out
there
now
and
watch
how
that
happens,
and
it's
a
bus
comes.
Maybe
two
are
there
at
the
same
time,
maybe
three,
but
it's
usually
not
more
than
that,
because
they
they
arrive.
Students
to
depart
the
buses
and
and
they
go
into
the
building
or
in
in
towards
the
park,
shoot
some
basketball
or
something
if
they're
early.
V
So
I
think,
when
the
project
is
done,
I
think
we're
going
to
have
a
lot
less
congestion
on
on
the
sidewalk
and,
as
I
said,
the
schreiber
students
would
head
towards
quinn
street
under
a
covered
walkway,
that's
permanent,
rather
than
temporary,
and
more
welcoming
that
they
take
them
down
to
the
to
the
g1
level
and
the
hb
students,
as
they
arrive,
will
go
into
the
the
upper
level
of
the
building,
and
I
think,
as
far
as
departure
goes
right
now,
it's
a
mass
exodus
of
the
building
across
the
field
which
that
will
end
up
being
more
controlled
because
of
the
the
way
the
the
field
is
raised,
and
the
fact
that
you
know
you
can't
just
run
run
off
the
edge
which
what
the
hp
students
do
currently
so
it
would
be
more
more
measured,
and
I
think
it
will
actually
work
very
well.
P
But
isn't
that
so
that
that
universal
design
principles,
what
we
want
to
achieve
is
that
all
students
can
use
all
egresses,
all
all
exits
and
entrances,
and
there
is
a
and
we
progress
towards
a
realm
of
where
the
the
student
body
is
not
separated
functionally,
but
actually
unified.
Functionally
is,
is
that
is
that
is
the
new
proposal
actually
serving
that
only
will
it
create
a
permanent.
V
No,
actually,
everybody
we.
We
would
anticipate
all
access
to
the
field
to
be
coming
out
of
level
one
and
it's
just
a
level
playing
field.
It's
everybody
comes
through
the
doors
and
you're
on
the
field.
V
So
I
think
that
that
is
is
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
had
had
looked
at,
that
I
think,
with
the
original
design,
you
came
out
to
a
sidewalk
and
then
you
went
towards
rosalind
highland
park,
and
then
there
was
a
ramp
that
took
you
into
the
park
and,
if
you
needed
to,
if
you
were
ambulatory,
you
could
just
go
bound
down
the
steps
and
you'd
be
on
the
field.
Z
Z
I
don't
know
the
answer
to
the
question
as
to
whether
the
I
don't
know
what
the
right
slide
is,
but
one
of
the
slides
shows
that
this
this
side,
the
stairs
coming
up
down
18th
street
sort
of
closer
to
the
park-
and
I
guess
the
question
is
as
sort
of
as
a
reminder
are.
We
is
the
field
anticipated
to
be
open
for
use
in
non-school
hours
in
this
case,
and
I
think
we
have
policies
on
this
as
a
whole.
Z
So
I
don't
know
whether
that's
aaron
mr
schreiber
question
or
whether
des
might
be
the
the
entity
to
help.
I
didn't
quite
see
it,
but
this
bubble
right
here,
sort
of
the
low
the
the
the
bubble
I
and
then
that
door
appears
to
the
fence.
Z
Will
people
be
able
to
go
up
those
steps
and
use
the
field
on
a
when
school
is
not
in
session?
And
I
think
I
don't
know
whether
that's
it.
I
can
answer
sure:
go
ahead.
Yeah.
V
I
I
think
that
we
have
an
moa
with
regard
to
the
fact
that
the
field
is
accessible
to
the
community
after
hours.
One
of
the.
V
Of
course
we
have
the
fence
to
keep
the
balls
and
frisbees
within
there
during
the
school
day
we're
looking
at
electronic
life
and
be
locked
because
we
do
have
some
mixing
issues
at
some
of
our
other
facilities
during
the
school
day
and
and
we
are
responsible
for
the
security
of
our
students
during
the
school
day
and
once
they're
in
our
care
and
that's
one
of
the
the
benefits
of
of
you
know
the
field,
the
way
it
is
and
we
we
are
looking
forward
to
that.
V
But
yes,
the
intent
is,
is
that
they
would
all
unlock
at
after
school
hours.
The
the
lighted
field
is
used
for
can
be
used
by
the
community,
and
the
intent
would
be
that
there's
a
there
are
issues
with
with
people
like
on
the
old
loading
dock,
overnight,
etc.
V
We
would
want
to
probably
maybe
lock
it
later
at
night
kind
of
like
we
do
our
garages
like
we
do
at
fleet.
We
lock
that
at
night
and
then
reopened
it
in
the
morning.
We
would
probably
do
the
same
with
the
field.
Just
because
of
you
know
keeping
people
from
sleeping.
There
got.
Z
Q
Thank
you,
ms
garvey
yeah.
I
had
a
question
I
think,
for
our
staff.
Just
on
on
ms
m
romero's
comments
about
the
lack
of
contact,
I
think,
in
condition
we
usually
require
the
there
to
be
some
communication,
at
least
during
the
construction
and
afterwards,
and
that's
kind
of
a
typical
thing
we
do.
Is
that
not
in
here.
U
If
you
give
me
a
moment,
I
will
consult
the
conditions
to
see
explicitly
what
it
states
that
condition.
Coordination
meeting
is
usually
it's
a
pre-construction
type
of
meeting
and
then
providing
points
of
contact.
I
think
miss
romero's
concern
was
just
the
desire
to
be
engaged
in
future
planning
efforts,
so
we
did
reach
out
to
appa,
did
not
reach
out
to
ms
romero
personally,
but
we
did
reach
out
to
an
app
of
contact,
unfortunately,
that
did
get
filtered
to
their
spam
folder.
U
So
our
outreach
efforts
to
appa
as
the
management
company
for
the
queen's
court
was
not
received,
so
we
have
coordinated
with
ms
romero
and
for
future
efforts.
We
will
coordinate
directly
with
her,
so
she
will
unfortunately
get
flooded
with
our
points
of
contact,
but
I
believe
that
that
was
what
the
the
miscommunication
was
in
this
situation.
Q
Thank
you
that
explains
a
lot
and
I
know
well,
I'm
not
going
to
think
that
we
need
to
put
in
a
condition,
I
think,
maybe
just
encourage
aps
and
I
see
head
nods
to
make
sure
that
they're,
you
know
good
neighbors
and
that
you
realize
those
folks
are
over
there
and
and
reach
out
to
them.
Some
is:
is
that
going
to
work,
mr
chambers?
You
think
that
they
can
do
that.
Maybe
that's
for
the
principal
I
mean
just
it's
just
a
typical
thing
that
I
think
you
know
we
ought
to
be
doing.
V
Yeah,
I
think
there
has
been
communication
between
the
principal
and
appa.
I
think
that
the
hb
woodlawn
students
seem
to
love
to
hang
out
at
the
primary
play
area
on
the
other
side
of
the
street.
I
think
there's
been
been
quite
a
few
conversations
and
I
think
it
will
will
be
ongoing
and-
and
I
know
during
the
the
early
phases
of
the
project
you.
AA
V
W
And
I'll
just
add
on
to
that
comment,
mr
shriver,
I
believe
condition.
13
does
identify
our
obligation
about
community
outreach
during
construction
in
typical
fashion
aps
will
we
are
currently
maintaining
a
project
website
where
these
presentations
are
posted
and
as
in
typical
fashion,
we'll
we'll
release
community
updates
during
the
construction
period
as
well
excellent.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
mr
dorsey.
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair
question,
really
about
the
operations
plan
for
the
field
for
community
use,
given
that
the
field
will
be
level
with
providing
easy
access
to
entrances
to
the
building,
and
you
know,
potentially,
there
could
be
trash
and
other
sort
of
things
left
on
the
field
from
the
period
where
community
use
ends
and
student
use
begins
in
the
morning.
Just
have
you
thought
about
how
you're
going
to
monitor
that
from
a
security
and
a
cleanup
perspective.
V
Yeah,
yes,
I
think
that's
also
in
the
mla
and
who
is
who's
cleaning
up
after
after
uses
etc.
So,
yes,
we
have
thought
of
that.
I
think
it's
also,
as
I
said
it's,
I
believe
it's
in
the
moa
and
how
it's
supposed
to
operate.
But,
yes,
we
have
custodians,
I'm
sure
first
thing
in
the
morning
they
would
be
going
out
and
checking
the
field
just
as
they
do
the
grass
field
currently,
which
gets
gets
used
with
open
access.
A
P
It's
it's
relevant
to
them.
One
of
the
was
one
of
the
issues
with
the
lack
of
engagement
of
the
immediate
neighbors
and
queen's
court
is
the
whole
concept
of
the
north,
the
the
rosting
highlands
park.
So
this
is
a
park
that
is
kind
of
divided
in
different
pieces.
Now
so
one
you
know
the
the
playground
is
on
in
queen's
court
across
the
street.
Now
we
have
the
basketball
court
and
and
and
we
eventually
will
get
the
the
field
now
so
the
with
the
elevated
design.
There
is
a
difference
in
elevation.
P
There
are
a
lot
of
stairs,
etc.
This
this
this
design
doesn't
really
say,
doesn't
invite,
doesn't
say
this
is
a
public
field
come
in
please?
So
it's
not
an
inviting
situation.
We
have
to
do
an
extra
effort
to
make
it
inviting
to
make
clear
to
everybody
not
only
to
the
neighbors
but
to
everybody
who
just
walks
by
that.
This
is
a
public
space
that
they
can
use.
V
Yeah,
I
think
that
we,
I
think
some
conversation
has
taken
place
with
regard
to
signage
and
parks,
putting
their
typical
signage-
and
you
know
again.
We
we
mentioned
with
regard
to
the
slope
adjacent
to
the
building.
The
field
is
two
feet
with.
The
current
design
is,
is
two
feet
above
rosalind
highland
park
and
rosalind
highland
park
is
also
not
flat.
V
You
know
it
goes
up
and
down
in
the
middle
of
the
field,
where
the
the
second
ramp
goes
in,
with
the
stairs
it's
five
feet
above
rosalind
highland
park
and
is
very
visible
from
the
park
and
inviting
and
welcoming
in
in
our
opinion,
everybody
has
their
own
opinion.
When
you
get
to
the
corner,
it's
about
seven
feet,
I
believe
above
the
the
plane,
because
the
field
actually
does
slope
from
one
the
180
elevation
about
a
foot
and
a
half
for
drainage
towards
18th
street.
So
you
know
it.
V
It
is
visible
again
from
the
middle
of
the
of
the
park,
and
we
felt
when
we
were
designing
it
that
that
it
was
welcoming
and
it
would
be
open.
You
know
from
roslyn
highland
park
granted
and
you
know
it
would
have
been
for
the
community.
You
know
if
it
had
been
in
the
middle
as
it
had
was
designed
before
it
would
have
been
very
accessible,
but
I
don't
know
that
it
would
have
been
more
visible.
V
You
still
would
have
had
the
fence,
you
still
would
have
had
the
gates
and
the
doors
that
would
be
in
there
and
again
there
was
only
one
accessible
entrances
onto
the
field
versus
two.
We
also
at
that
time
did
not
have
the
the
stair
entrances
from
queen
street
and
and
from
the
from
18th
street
directly
up
to
the
field.
So
you
know
I.
I
agree
that
that
it,
the
the
real
really
the
only
change
that
we've
made
was
was
raised,
the
field
from
from
where
it
was
in
the
original
proposal.
It.
P
V
Yeah
we
we've
looked
at
multiple
options
and
and
ways
of
making
this
work.
Essentially,
what
we've
been
able
to
do
with
this
design
is
keep
the
field
size
the
same
as
it
was
in
the
original
proposal
to
get
the
accessibility
and
the
security
that
we
would
need.
The
field
would
have
to
get
smaller,
which
wouldn't
work
for
our
physical
education,
because
it's
it's
you.
AB
V
It
we
need
as
much
space
as
we
can
get
for
getting
those
kids
outside,
because
essentially
you
basically
have
to
reduce
the
classes
that
you
have
outside
if
you
have
less
field
space.
So
you
know,
we
felt
that
this
was
the
best
solution
to
give
the
community
and
the
school
the
largest
field
possible
and
to
provide
the
best
accessibility
to
the
field
for
everybody,
and
we
just
felt
that
that
was
the
the
right
direction
to
go.
Yeah.
P
I
appreciate
the
needs
and
I
understand
the
trade-offs
only
in
case
of
physical
education.
This
is
a
field,
that's
not
standard
for
any
correct,
significant
support,
and
so
we
we
have
some
wiggle
rooms
with
with
with
with
the
specs
there
and
and
pe
standards
are,
as
I
understand
them,
site
specific.
They
are
not
universal.
Okay.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
okay.
I
think
if
we
could
bring
up
that
picture
with
the
elevation
of
the
field
one
more
time,
I
would
find
that
helpful
and
then
we
can
the
one
that
I
think
mr
deferenti
indicated
or
the
final
slide
of
school's
presentations
either
would
be
helpful.
A
I
guess
I
want
to
just
really
drill
into
what
I
think
is
the
chief
motivator
of
the
planning
commission's
objections
and
chairman
weir
can
can
correct
me
if
I'm
mischaracterizing
this,
which
is
you
know,
essentially
the
the
the
distance
between
or
the
bifurcation
of
18th
street.
I
am.
A
If
we
can
get
the
image
out,
it
seems
like
a
really
difficult
design
problem
to
solve
that
either
there
will
be
zero
barriers
from
school
to
field
or
there
will
be
you
know,
a
closer
to
grade
interaction
between
the
fields
and
the
public
realm
on
the
street.
A
I
wonder
I
I
know,
mr
schreiber,
that
our
staff
thought
pretty
hard
about
this
to
see.
If
there
were
any
ways
that
field
could
be
brought
closer
to
great
or
otherwise
better
integrated
with
the
public
realm.
Can
you
just
shed
a
little
insight
for
us
on
on?
Why
that
isn't
possible,
or
what
would
frankly
need
to
be
done
if
we
were
to
hope
to
both
retain
the
zero
barrier
entry
from
school
to
field
and
bring
bring
it
closer
to
the
public
realm.
U
Sure
so
we
did
evaluate
a
number
of
proposals,
and
I
think
this
is
a
good
slide
to
illustrate
what
the
result
was
and-
and
I
would
direct
your
attention
primarily
to
the
image
in
the
lower
left
and
so
that
you
can
see
where
there
are
those
movements.
So
this
slide
is
showing
you
you
actually
have.
Three
points
of
access
are
three
public
points
of
access
to
the
field
in
this
case,
so
you
have
the
stair
which
goes
down
to
18th
street.
U
You
also
have
a
ramp,
which
is
also
for
that
will
help
facilitate
the
dpr
maintenance
vehicles
to
get
into
the
facility,
but
so
what
we
looked
at
is
various
ways
to
lower
that
elevation
with
a
parking
garage,
and
I
would
ask
mr
bergen
if
you
could
go
to
the
previous
slide.
That
shows
the
elevations.
U
Thank
you.
I
think
this
is
a
really
important
element
to
recognize
that,
as
was
mentioned,
it
is
not
a
flat
site.
If
you
go
to
the
heights
building
today
and
you
look
at
it
from
18th
street,
what
you'll
notice
is,
there
is
a
large
slope
that
goes
from
the
north
face
of
the
building
down
to
the
playing
surface,
where
the,
which
is
where
the
temporary
fire
station
used
to
be
and
and
so
as
mr
chambers
referenced.
Today,
there
is
not
an
accessible
route
from
the
school
on
the
north
side
into
that
playable
area.
U
You
have
to
leave
the
school
and
you
have
to
because
the
covered
walkway
is
effectively
at
the
eastern
end,
going
out
to
18th
street.
You
have
to
go
around
that
218th
street
to
come
in.
I
would
assume
that
that
disrupts
some
usability
of
it,
because
it's
a
circuitous
route,
but
we
always
recognize
the
temporary
nature
of
this.
U
But
what's
so
important
here
is
you'll
see
that
the
site
is
sloping
three
feet
as
you're
moving
from
east
to
west
along
18th
street
and
then
you're
also
dropping
five
feet
as
you're,
going
from
nook
from
the
north
face
of
the
building
down
to
18th
street.
So
you
already
have
those
topographical
issues,
as
you
can
see
in
the
existing
roster
highlands
park,
as
was
mentioned
by
mr
chambers,
there
are
different
elevations
of
the
various
park
features.
The
basketball
court
is
lower
than
some
of
the
areas
around
it.
You
have
some
ramps
and
stairs
that.
U
Take
you
to
that
this.
So
because
of
that,
the
idea
was
that
we
looked
at
was
in
in
the
most
simple
terms.
You
just
you
just
drop
the
elevation
of
the
garage,
so
you
excavate
more
right.
H
U
You
put
that
garage
structure
completely
below
grade,
and
then
you
have
the
field
at
grade.
Well
again,
recognizing
these
elevational
changes
you're
still
going
to
have
some
raised
elements
you're
going
to
have
to
right.
You
have
to
still
you
know,
make
it.
You
know
flush
with
the
grade,
so
you're
still
going
to
have
somewhere
that
three
foot
change,
especially
over
on
the
quinn
street
side.
U
I
know
the
aps
consider
that
and
I
think
they
could
probably
speak
to
the
various
options
they
presented
to
their
school
board
and
obviously
there's
a
cost
with
that.
So
we
looked
at
that
as
one
option.
We
looked
at
another
option
of
well
what
if
he
had
no
parking
right,
because
that
was
kind
of
the
board's
direction
from
2017
was
look
at.
How
much
parking
do
you
need?
U
Because
now
the
elevation
at
180
is
being
somewhat
driven
by
the
desire
for
parking
again
aps
demonstrated
to
us
the
desire
for
more
parking,
in
addition
to
the
hundred
spaces
that
we
are
able
to
negotiate,
that's
being
provided
as
part
of
the
ground
lease
with
penzance
now
cortland.
As
a
successor
to
that
project,
they
did
present
the
the
need
right
now.
U
I
believe
that
aps
is
leasing
around
30
or
so
spaces
in
other
garages
in
the
area,
so
the
desire
was
to
try
and
have
as
much
parking
on
site
or
at
least
on
this
block
as
possible,
that
number
of
spaces
was
reduced
so
so,
once
recognizing
there
was
a
need
for
parking.
Looking
at
the
costs,
I
think
there
were
also
some
concerns
about
where
the
underground
stormwater
vault
was
and
how
deep
they
could
push
this
below
grade
in
order
to
help
with
the
functionality
those
were
all
explored.
U
U
I
believe
the
entrance
to
the
school
at
that
g1
level
and
I'll
ask
the
applicant
to
correct
me.
If
I'm
wrong,
I
believe
that's
about
165
feet,
so
you
have
to
have
that
covered
access
point.
So
we
even
looked
at
an
option
of
providing
just
a
standalone
covered
element
in
order
to
provide
not
just
a
covered
walkway,
but
maybe
even
some
covered
areas
for
bicycle
parking.
U
That's
where
we
ultimately
agreed
with
the
desire
to
provide
the
greatest
access
and
that's
when
we
then
pivoted
to
trying
to
make
the
points
of
access
from
18th
street
and
roslin
highlands
park
to
be
the
most
accommodating.
However,
we
do
recognize
again
if
rosen
highlands
park
is
at
175
feet,
you're
still
having
to
get
up
a
few
feet
in
order
to
enter
the
park
there,
so
it
did
go
through
a
series
of
iterations,
and
I
know
that's
also
what
the
school
board
considered.
U
I
believe
that
there
are
four
separate
options
before
they
came
forward
with
this.
Okay.
A
Thank
you
very
much
all
right.
Unless
the
applicant,
the
schools
have
anything
to
add
mr
differentiated
and
then
mr
rail
looked
to
for
a
motion.
Z
Well,
actually,
I
kind
of
wanted
to
see
if
the
the
applicant
schools
wanted
to
speak
to
that
there's
a
lot
of
different
factors
identified
by
mr
schreiber
and
I
did
I
have
looked
at
one
point
at
the
four
different
options.
But
but
if
there's
a
refresher
and
a
reminder
seems
like
going
excavating
would
be
significantly
more
expensive,
that
could
be
a
factor,
but
perhaps
not
the
only
factor
I
didn't
know.
If
you
all
could
speak
to
that
briefly.
V
Yeah
I
can
say
that
that
we
we
studied
this
significantly
before
we
took
it
to
the
board
for
the
last
cip.
We
we've
continued
to
to
review
it.
We
actually
had
a
different
architect
looking
at
it
when
we
did
the
the
previous
cip
we
had,
and
then
we
brought
another
architect
on
to
do
the
design.
V
So
we've
actually
looked
at
this
multiple
ways
and
and
and
what
makes
the
most
sense
for
the
community
in
our
mind,
as
well
as
for
the
the
school
community,
and
that's
really
what
we
were
have
been
looking
at
since
the
beginning.
We
really
need
to
provide
the
access.
V
You
know
a
school
is
not
you
know.
School
staff
and
or
these
students
are
not
a
typical
office
building
type
arrival
departure.
There
are
issues
and
concerns.
You
know
we
did
have
to
put
in
temporary
handicapped
parking,
for
instance,
at
on
to
quinn
street,
because
there
was
not
significant
or
sufficient
space.
I
V
We've
had
many
letters
from
from
students
who
had
to
take
their
student
into
the
building
that
got
soaking
wet
by
the
time
they
went
down
the
switchback
ramps.
That's
not
a
good
situation
and
and
they've
been
very
patient.
Our
our
schreiber
community
has
been
very
patient
knowing
about
the
fire
station
and
working
with
that
and
and
they're
they
were,
they
really
are.
I
believe,
and
the
group
septa
which
you've
received
the
letter
from
is
very.
Z
V
Yeah,
I
think
the
other
issue
is
access.
It
would
have
been
very
difficult
to
achieve
the
access
to
the
to
the
field.
The
field
probably
would
have
gotten
smaller.
We
probably
would
have
separated
the
the
covered
walkway
because
of
the
height
of
the
access,
so
it
would
have
been
a
complete.
It
would
be
a
completely
different
design
and-
and
it
would
when
we
started
looking
at
it,
we'd
have
to
push
it
further
and
get
below
the
intended
elevation
of
the
garage
than
what
was
intended.
Z
Great,
it's
certainly
possible
this.
You
covered
this
a
little
bit,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
because
reading
the
planning
commission's
letter,
this
kind
of
was
super
relevant
for
me
and-
and
I
I
don't
want
to
take
too
long
but
mr
weirdo,
just
because
I
want
to
do
justice
to
your
comments
in
the
letter.
Do
you
do
you
have
perspective
on
the
two
comments
with
respect
to
this,
that
that
just
happened,
the
sort
of
cost
and
design
and
keeping
in
mind
that
you
know
not
all
our
alternatives
are
always
possible.
X
Yeah
a
little
bit,
thank
you
for
asking
mr
schreiber
the.
Could
you
put
the
slide,
the
top
the
top?
Actually,
the
the
four
images
slide.
If
you
would
the
one?
Oh.
Thank
you.
Sorry,
the
the
first,
the
first
slide
that
mr
shriver
pointed
to
where
he
referred
to
the
image
in
the
lower
left.
X
I
might
actually
ask
you
to
put
up
both
slides
to
go
through
both
of
them.
X
Mr
diferanti,
the
the
the
answer
is
that
nearly
all
of
these
things
were
discussed
at
the
at
the
the
meeting.
You
know
I
mentioned
in
my
opening
remarks
that
there
are
architects
on
the
commission,
commissioner,
leo
sarley,
who
is
an
architect
spent
a
number
spent,
some
minutes,
which
I
mean
euphemistically,
but
but
in
a
respectful
way,
asking
in.
If
we
can
look
at
that,
lower
left
slide.
There's
that
sort
of
technically
it's
called
a
pentagon,
but
it's
it's
a
it's
an
isosceles
pentagon.
X
I
guess
just
to
the
it's
it's
it's
like
an
arrow,
pointing
to
the
lower
left
of
the
corner
of
of
the
slide
itself.
X
Commissioner,
sally
was
very
interested
in
the
fact
that
the
applicant
already
has
to
move
people
from
high
ground
to
low
ground
across
that
pentagonal
area
and
if
they
already
have
to
move
people
from
the
180
foot
elevation
of
the
school
to
the
160,
some
foot
elevation
of
the
street,
then
why
is
the
applicant
not
looking
more
intently
at
that
area
or
or
why
are
we
not
asking
the
applicant
to
look
into
more
intently
of
that
area
in
the
interest
of
preserving
the
previously
discussed
aspects
of
the
of
the
west
rosslyn
area
plan?
X
X
X
That's
that
a
pedestrian
on
18th
street
coming
in
or
going
to
queen's
court
or
coming
or
going
from
the
playground
or
just
walking
along
the
western
end
of
the
18th
street
corridor,
as
envisioned
in
the
rosalind
sector
plan,
and
this
isn't
the
rosalind
sector
plan.
But
it
is
specifically
mentioned
there,
the
queen
street,
terminus
the
the
view
that
they
would
have
of
of
the
school.
X
Then
you
know
the
only
other
thing
that
I
I
will
add
in
response
to
your
question,
mr
deferenti-
and
this
is
something
that
I
omitted
from
my
remarks-
is
that
the
commission's
recommendation
included
on
the
topic
of
this
various
the
four
different
options
that
that
mr
schreiber
was
talking
about.
The
commission's
recommendations
do
include
directing
staff
to
pursue
an
option
that
would
only
result
in
the
construction
of
the
covered
walkway
and
not
of
the
underground
parking,
and
so
this
this
you
know
was
I
I
regret
that.
X
X
How
do
we
get
those
addressed
without
without
running
into
the
other
issues
that
that
that
that
we
considered-
and
the
commission's
I
think
ultimate
conclusion-
was
that
the
way
to
at
this
point,
like
the
res,
the
response
to
the
proposal
we
have
was
there
are
alternatives
that
appear
to
have
been
acknowledged,
but
not
fully
considered
and,
and
so
the
really
only
way
forward
consistent
with
the
plans
was
to
make
that
recommendation
about
the
covered.
Walkway.
X
That's
a
little
bit
longer
of
an
answer,
mr
defranti
than
you
bargained
for,
but
these
were
all
very
much
part
of
the
the
same
bundle
of
concerns
that
the
applicant
and
mr
schreiber
talked
to.
Z
Thank
you,
mr
weir,
and
thank
you,
madam
chair
colleagues,
for
the
for
the
time
I
thought
that
just
occurred
to
me
as
you're
describing
is
it
then
that
I
don't
actually
think
should
be
pursued,
but
I
will
articulate
is
that
the
white
space
on
the
ceiling?
I
wonder
if
there's
an
opportunity
for
a
mural
on
that
space
at
some
point
just
to
seek
to
to
provide
more,
you
know
a
little
better
street
perspective,
but
thanks
very
much
madam
chair.
Thank.
Q
Q
If
I
might-
and
I
will
move
that
we
approve
the
use-
permit
amendment
for
a
below-grade
parking
structure
with
a
lighted,
synthetic
turf
field,
above
with
modifications
to
the
arlington
county,
zoning
ordinance,
ordinance
requirements
for
a
parking
reduction
and
to
allow
parking
spaces
to
be
located
off-site
and
for
setbacks
to
allow
for
the
location
of
the
parking
structure
and
field.
As
shown
in
the
use
permit
plan,
subject
to
the
conditions
of
the
staff
report
dated
july
11,
2022
and
referred
to
in
the
supplemental
report
of
july
14
2022.
Q
I
might
make
remarks
if
that's
okay
and
they'll
kind
of
be
in
the
nature
of
I
think
concluding
remarks.
So
you
know,
I
really
appreciate
the
discussion.
It's
nice
to
see
our
friends
from
aps
here,
mr
bergen,
mr
chambers.
It's
been
a
while,
and
also
all
of
the
the
very
thoughtful
discussion
from
from
mr
weir
on
the
planning
commission
setting
out
really
very
clearly
and
intentionally.
What
is
your
role
and
what
is
our
role?
Q
And
I
think
that's
what's
at
play
here
a
lot,
and
I
really
appreciate
you
doing
that,
because
a
lot
of
times
groups
tend
to
slide
their
roles
in
and
out,
and
I
think
the
more
we're
kind
of
clear
about
what
exactly
we're
meant
to
be
doing
and
doing
that
that
the
better
it
is.
So
I
really
appreciate
that.
Q
Q
You
know
residences
fire
station
parks,
schools,
it's
really
incredible,
what's
been
put
there
and
then,
of
course,
we've
seen
today
kind
of
a
reminder
of
the
challenges
of
all
the
slopes
and
as
mr
weir
mentioned,
so
you
know
we
have
other
things
to
consider
so
to
schools
and
that's
you
know.
Security
program
needs
and
very
particular
program
needs
here.
So
I
am
very
comfortable
with
the
motion
I
just
made
and,
as
I
say,
appreciate
the
discussion.
Q
I
think
this
is
a
balance
of
where
the
priorities
need
to
be,
and
I
think
in
this
case
the
conclusion
is,
it
really
needs
to
be
with
the
security
and
the
programmatic
needs
and
the
particular
challenges
of
this
site.
I
think
when
we
began
all
those
years
ago
there
were
some
discussion.
Are
we
trying
to
put
too
much
on
that
this
site?
Possibly?
But
I
think,
given
everything
it's,
I
think
it's
really
a
pretty
good
job
and
the
design
of
the
school
actually
is
quite
lovely.
Q
It's
nice
to
see
that
in
reality
and
it'll
be
good
to
have
this.
The
whole
project
finished
and
thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
Z
Thank
you,
madam
chair
reading,
the
letter
that
from
the
planning
commission
you
know
initially,
if
you
are
not
familiar
with
a
wraps
process,
five
feet
may
not
seem
important,
but
it
really
came
home
to
me.
I
thought
it
was
well
argued
letter,
and
this
morning
you
know
you
be
you
refer
to
both
experience
and
judgment.
So
often
we
have
either
one
or
the
other,
but
not
both,
and
I
do
feel
that
the
planning
commission
has
both,
and
so
this
is
it's
not
an
easy
decision.
Z
I'm
also
there's
been
much
discussion
recently
about
precedent,
and
I
I
hope
that
this
is
emphatic
that
we
can
try
and
avoid
this
being
precedent
in
most
any
way,
but
I
feel
like
there
is
a
a
a
role
here
that
I
I
feel
responsible
to
move
forward
with
the
design
with
this
design,
and
I
do
really
appreciate
not
only
better
process
with
miss
romero
receiving
tons
of
lots
of
emails
directly,
as
you
said,
mr
schreiber,
but
on
this
project
I
really
hope
that
we
will
make
sure
that
going
forward
renters
are
engaged.
Z
Ultimately,
it's
it's
a
difficult
decision,
but
one
that
I
I
feel
we
should
go
forward
with.
Given
that
the
need
to
to
eventually
make
a
decision,
I
feel
like
there's
a
role
for
the
board
in
some
instances
to
to
try
and
take
this
sort
of
a
decision
and
and
move
forward,
but
I
I
don't
do
so
lightly
and
I
appreciate
very
much
mr
weir
and
the
planning
commission's
thoughts
on
this
thanks.
P
Thank
you
ma'am
chair.
So
let
me
preface
that
by
saying
that
mr
weir,
I
I
spent
six
hours
through
the
videos
of
the
planning
commission,
and
I
can
only
and
in
this
particular
these
are
three
hours
of
conversation.
P
These
have
been
extremely
thorough,
exhausting
and
very
teachable
in
my
very
humble
opinion,
and
there
are
still
a
very
a
lot
of
questions
that
were
left
open
there
that
haven't
been
answered
today.
P
That
said
also,
I
I
appreciate
the
very
hard
work
that
both
aps
staff
put
into
this
project.
I
understand
it's
not
easy
in
our
stuff,
mr
either.
So
there
is
there's
no
question.
This
is
a
you're
we're.
This
is
building
at
school
in
the
urban
environment.
Environment
is
about
trade-offs,
but
these
trade-offs
have
to
be
assumed
from
both
sides
of
the
equation,
and
what
I
mean
is
here:
the
consistency
with
the
west
russell
and
sector
plan,
so
with
wraps
is,
is
really
an
important
thing.
AB
P
So
I
see
problems
with
with
compliance,
even
the
public
art
that
you
propose
to
to
put
you
know
to
break
some
somehow
this.
This
actually
accentuates
the
the
problem.
It
just
shows
where
the
the
the
issue,
the
aesthetic
issue
of
the
problem,
is.
So
I
don't
think
that
the
I'm
not
convinced
at
this
point
that
the
elevated
feel
and
the
level
access
from
the
building,
as
which
was
the
driving
principle
of
your
of
your
of
your
design.
P
I
I
remember
specifically
at
the
end
of
the
planning
commission
meeting,
where
you
couldn't
provide
kind
of
an
approximate
estimate
of
what
would
cost
to
do
different.
You
know
configurations
of
parking,
including
the
famous
option
c
that
will
still
keep
the
the
the
field
level,
but
would
provide
all
the
appropriate
new
access,
which
I
think
is
important
to
the
schroder
program.
P
Also,
the
you
know
the
discussion
about
doing
a
little
bit
more
of
an
excavation,
and
you
know
lowering
the
the
level
I
I
I
understand
that
there
are
issues
with
that
that
this
is
not
so
easy.
You
have
to
build
a
ramp.
You
have
to
still
make
sure
that
the
shriver
access
works
in
there
etc,
but
it
would
be
really
helpful
to
to
quantify
them
and
say
look.
This
is
so
many
million
dollars
more
of
an
expense.
P
This
is
the
trade-off
since
we
are
in
the
in
the
business
of
discussion
trade-offs,
let's,
let's
put
to
the
best
of
our
abilities,
some
some
numbers
behind
that,
and-
and
you
know
I
I
want
to
anticipate
the
discussion-
the
very
similar
discussions
on
the
the
argentine
career
center,
where
we
still
have
an
issue
with
public
realm
of
a
you,
know,
structured
garage
and
ninth
street,
and
where
you
know
the
the
discussion
about
what
would
it
cost
to
do,
the
you
know
to
to
underground
parking
under
the
new
building,
etc
are
still,
in
my
opinion,
open.
P
So
thank
you
so
much
I
for
all
the
work.
Unfortunately,
I
cannot
support
the
the
the
use
permit
application
at
this
point
and
I
align
mostly
with
remarks
of
the
planning
commission
on
this.
Thank
you.
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
So
mr
weir
mentioned
the
rather
unprecedented
or
it's
been
a
long
time
nature
of
the
planning
commission's
consideration
of
this
item.
I
can
certainly
attest
to
this
being
a
rare
occurrence
and
can
appreciate
that
it
wasn't
taken
or
done
so
lightly
and
in
fact
I
find
the
assessment
of
the
planning
commission
in
reviewing
this
item
to
be
reasonable
and
and
correct.
E
That
said,
I'm
going
to
be
prepared
to
move
forward
with
approving
this
motion,
and
it
is
because
we
hope
and
desire
that
our
planning
commission
is
bringing
a
fidelity
to
marrying
our
plans
and
policies,
particularly
ones
that
are
recent
and
contemporary,
and
making
sure
that
if
a
project
a
proposal
does
not
comport,
then
there
ought
to
be
a
clear
and
defensible
reason.
Why?
Now
I
actually
like
the
fact
that
the
planning
commission
is
making
a
broad
assessment
of
how
this
is
not
consistent
and
in
substantive
accord.
E
The
tough
job
of
measuring
whether
or
not
that
is
appropriate
in
light
of
the
other
conditions
is
the
job
for
us
today
and
as
I've
taken
lots
of
time
over
the
last
couple
of
years.
Much
of
it
spent
with
our
chair
and
conversations
with
our
school
board
colleagues
trying
to
understand
some
of
the
desires,
for
you
know
one:
a
an
equitable
and
safe
entrance
for
the
shriver
students,
absolutely
no
dispute
there.
E
I
don't
see
it
as
so
such
a
degradation
of
the
vision
of
wraps
that
this
would
you
know,
blow
the
whole
idea
of
what
we
were
trying
to
do
there
out
of
the
water
and
as
someone
who
spent
a
fair
amount
of
time
in
that
area,
on
the
basketball
courts
and
on
the
makeshift
field,
I
feel
pretty
confident
that
that
will
serve
to
fully
be
activated
and
aware
for
all
users.
I
don't
see
this
as
something
that's
going
to
be
hidden
and
therefore
an
underutilized
public
resource,
as
it
relates
to
the
field.
E
I'm
satisfied
that
that,
certainly
with
or
without
signage
over
time
this
will.
This
will
be
used
in
a
way
and
be
activated
in
a
way
that
we
actually
envision
with
wraps
in
the
first
place,
so
putting
all
that
together
and
prepared
to
support
it.
I
just
like
to
make
a
brief
comment
about
a
couple
of
other
things.
E
You
know
we've
heard
from
people
who
represent
and
support
students
with
special
needs
about
whether
or
not
this
version
which
does
not
provide
additional
sidewalk
space
for
all
ability,
students,
whether
this
is
in
effect
a
prioritization
of
parking
over
the
needs
of
those
students,
I
think,
is
miss
crystal's
line
of
questioning
earlier
established,
10
feet.
Clear,
is
pretty
much
always
what
a
quality
10
foot
clear
path
was
what
was
envisioned
from
the
beginning
number
one,
but
but
also
number
two.
E
As
I
look
at
it,
it's
it's
sufficient
to
accommodate
the
peak
demand
that
we're
going
to
need
for
the
sidewalk
in
this
area
and
having
the
ability
to
accommodate
that
peak
demand,
even
if
it's
less
than
what
it
could
have
been
with
the
benefit
of
having
a
transportation
network
that
does
work
according
to
plan,
I
think
is,
is
appropriate
and
I'm
okay
with
that
and
just
as
a
final
piece
as
we've
commented
about
including
people
in
the
nearby
community,
particularly
renters,
with
things
that
may
substantially
impact
them.
E
I'll
I'll
note,
mr
schreiber-
and
I
I
say
this
not
with
harsh
criticism
but
just
as
a
gentle
suggestion,
we've
got
to
get
out
of
the
business
of
believing
that
outreach
is,
is
con,
is
the
same
as
reaching
out
and
just
sending
out
an
email
without
any
confirmation
that
it
was
received,
understood
or
processed
is
probably
not
enough
for
us
when
we
consider
you
know
our
outreach
strategies
and
we
ought
to
build
in
some
capacity
to
make
sure
that,
at
the
very
least,
like
we've
done
with
a
lot
of
board
reports
when
we
report
on
what
are
the
neighborhood
concerns?
E
It's
like
you
know
they
declined
to
comment
or
something
like
that.
We
do
something
affirmative
to
make
sure.
Okay,
you
heard
me,
you
got
it
and
and
whether
or
not
they
want
to
engage
is
up
to
them.
But
for
us
it's
not
just
about
sending
it
out,
and
I
just
remind
us
of
that
again
and
I'll
conclude.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank.
A
You
so
much
well.
For
my
part,
I
think
I
want
to
echo
the
things
my
colleagues
have
placed
with
the
planning
commission
and
I
think,
both
the
effort
to
expect
fidelity
to
18th
street
and
the
vision
for
18th
street.
We,
as
ms
garvey
noted,
tried
to
do
a
lot
with
raps,
and
I
know
at
the
time
of
adoption.
A
We
really
thought
a
lot
about
what
this
would
mean
from
users,
because
ultimately,
that
is
what
land
use
planning
is
about
is
how
residents
will
interact
with
one
another
in
the
public
realm,
and
so
I
think
you
know
the
points
that
you
made.
The
activation
of
18th
street
matters,
the
connectivity
of
18th
street
matters
the
sight
lines,
and
so
I
really
appreciate
the
thoughtfulness.
I
think
you
know
your
comments
chairman
we
are
really
spoke
to.
This
was
not
a
flippant
or
knee-jerk
exercise
by
the
planning
commission.
A
I
think
you're
well
aware
of
the
meaning
of
the
recommendation,
and
I
know
you
didn't
come
to
it
lightly.
I'm
also
thinking
about
you
know
the
the
exhortation
you
made
of
us
to
just
think
about
what.
What
are
we
communicating
with
regard
to
the
expectations
of
applicants
seeking
variances
from
our
planning
documents
and
that
it's
really
important
that
if
they're
going
to
make
that
case,
it
needs
to
serve
the
public
interest,
not
just
the
private
interest?
A
I
think,
as
my
colleagues
ms
garvey
in
particular
noted
and
mr
dorsey
just
now,
and
as
you
well
know,
of
course
we
have
a
slightly
different
job
right,
and
so
I
do
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
think
or
to
articulate
very
clearly
from
this
diocese
why
our
expectations
are
different
of
an
applicant
who
is
part
of
the
public
right
and
government
than
they
would
be
for
an
independent
or
commercial
interest.
A
But
I
appreciate
you
raising
that
you
know.
Ultimately,
I
am
convinced-
and
I
think
our
staff
and
and
school
staff
have
done
a
lot
to
show
their
work
on
evaluating
alternative
options.
You
know,
ultimately,
as
others
have
indicated,
and
I
would
associate
myself
with
mr
karen
jonas's
points
here.
A
This
is
a
great
embodiment
of
a
phrase
that
sometimes
gets
used
in
urban
planning
the
high
cost
of
free
parking.
I
know
we
have
had
many
conversations,
as
mr
darcy
indicated,
about
our
desire
to
see
this
site
take
advantage
of
the
incredibly
rich
transit
network
in
roslyn.
Take
advantage
of
the
incredibly
extensive
parking
available,
some
of
which
is
mr
schreiber
noted
we
negotiated
for
schools
use.
A
Nevertheless,
I
think
probably
the
most
important
thing
here
is
not
only
the
field
but
the
the
new
entrance
for
the
shriver
students,
and
I
know
the
one
the
the
current
entrance,
the
sort
of
interim
condition
has
been
one
that
has
been
difficult
for
schools
and
I
think
difficult
for
all
of
us.
A
It
doesn't
represent
the
best
of
what
aps
hopes
to
show
students
of
all
abilities,
and
so
I
do
think
we
shouldn't
lose
sight
of
the
fact
that
that
approval
today
represents
a
a
a
return
to
that
principle
of
inclusion,
which
I
am
looking
forward
to
and
of
course
I
do
feel
like
be
remiss.
A
You
know
we
are
here,
of
course,
talking
about
this
field
on
a
separate
timeline
than
the
rest,
because
schools
did
us
a
solid,
so
to
speak,
allowing
us
to
put
the
temporary
fire
station
there
to
enable
the
construction
of
the
rest
of
wraps,
so
that
that
that
history
weighs
on
my
mind
too.
At
this
point
I
am
prepared
to
support
the
motion.
I
really
appreciate
the
the
diversity
of
opinions
brought
up.
A
I
want
to
join
my
colleagues
in
thanking
the
planning
commission
for
ensuring
that
these
important
considerations
became
part
of
the
public
record
and
part
of
our
dialogue.
Today,
I'd
like
to
thank
mr
schreiber
and
his
colleagues
and
the
team
at
aps
planning
for
getting
to
a
resolution
that
is
before
us
today
and
with
that.
I
believe
we
are
ready
for
a
vote
all
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed.
P
A
That
carries
four
to
one.
Thank
you
all
so
much.
I
believe
we
will
move
now
into
our
next
item.
Miss
madame
clerk.
If
you
could
call
that
item
for.
C
T
Yeah,
thank
you
ma'am
pierre.
You
should
sit
down
right
out
there.
Pierre
jollikar
is
here
to
make
the
presentation
and
mr
fusorelli
and
mr
schreiber
are
available.
Also
excellent.
O
AD
Currently,
this
is
the
location
of
the
village
school.
The
property
is
intersected
with
washington,
boulevard,
north
potomac
street
and
north
poduan
street.
The
applicant
is
currently
requesting
to
use
16
on
street
parking
spaces.
The
church
currently
has
no
parking
and
therefore
the
applicant
is
requesting
to
use
the
on-street
parking.
AD
So,
as
you
can
see
from
this
area,
the
church
doesn't
have
any
parking
and
in
order
to
preserve
the
on-site
playground
and
open
space
without
further
increasing
in
previous
site,
the
applicant
is
requesting
a
modification
to
allow
them
to
use
the
on-street
parking
spaces.
Currently
there
are
16
spaces.
An
applicant
is
requesting
to
use
10
spaces.
AD
This
is
a
closer
area
of
the
site.
This
is
the
resurrection
lutheran
church,
where
the
proposed
location
of
the
village
school
will
be
and,
as
you
can
see
in
the
aerial,
the
adjacent
streets
currently
are
not
metered
or
regulated
by
rpp,
and
they
are
on
street
parkings
available.
AD
AD
As
you
know,
the
property
is
located
in
highland
park,
overly
known
civic
association
neighborhood,
the
property
is
on
r6
and
per
the
use.
Protozoaning
ordinance.
The
use
is
permitted.
The
applicant
is
requesting
a
private
school
for
kindergarten
through
8th
grade
for
up
to
60
children,
age
5
to
13..
The
applicant
is
looking
to
operate
from
monday
through
friday,
8
a.m
to
5
p.m.
With
no
anticipated
evening
or
weekend.

and
again,
the
applicant
is
requesting
the
use
of
10

off
street
parking
spaces.
AD
Community
feedback
staff
initially
incorrectly
characterized
the
use
as
a
child
care
facility
rather
than
private
school
on
june
3rd.
The
issue
was
immediately
corrected
and
the
process
began
on
june
29th.
The
application
material
originally
shared
with
the
public
described
the
use
as
a
private
school.
AD
Staff
has
proposed
conditions
addressing
the
community
concerns
towards
mitigating
any
potential
adverse
impact
of
the
use
for
the
staff
assessment.
We
believe
that
the
use
is
appropriate
and
any
potential
adverse
impact
can
be
mitigated
through
these
conditions
and
another
of
addressing
the
capacity
of
students
conditioned
to
address
a
maximum
capacity
of
up
to
60
students,
and
if
the
applicant
requests
to
increase
their,
they
will
need
to
go
before
the
county
board
in
order
to
amend
their
current
application.
AD
The
current
hours
of
operation,
which
is
addressed
in
condition
2,
is
8,
am
to
5
pm,
but
no
evening

condition
to
address

Third
time's
the
charm.
Thank
you
for
that
presentation.
We
appreciate
it
very
much
if
you
wouldn't
mind
staying
close
for
questions
that
would
be
of
help,
and
I
do
believe
that
we
have
representatives
of
the
village
school
with
us
today.
If
you'd
like
to
begin
with
any
comments,
we'd
welcome
them
sure.
Otherwise
we
can
have
you
available
for
questions.
AE
AE
We
pick
up
eggs
at
the
westover
farmers
market
every
morning
every
sunday
morning.
My
love
of
and
pride
in
arlington
is
one
of
the
main
reasons
that
we
wanted
to
locate
the
village
school
here.
The
other
reason
is
because
over
60
percent
of
our
families
reside
in
arlington,
I'd
like
to
emphasize
two
important
aspects
about
our
school
that
are
relevant
to
today's
discussion.
AE
Number
one
is
our
size.
We
are
a
micro
school,
our
learning
model,
which
honors
the
individual
child's
path
for
learning,
is
largely
dependent
on
keeping
our
class
sizes
small.
While
it
is
our
intent
to
grow
the
school
to
reach
other
communities,
each
of
our
individual
campuses,
including
the
one
at
resurrection,
lutheran,
will
and
must
remain
small
number.
Two,
and
perhaps
the
most
important
point
I'd
like
to
make
today,
is
why
the
village
school
exists.
In
the
first
place,
some
of
you
may
have
visited
our
website
to
see
what
we're
all
about.
AE
AE
A
C
Mr
fox,
and
if
you
could
unmute
yourself
there,
you
go
try
again
there.
You
are
good
morning.
AF
Potomac
politon
street,
which
I
need
to
emphasize,
does
not
have
sidewalks
for
most
of
that
way,
so
that
any
walking
that's
done,
and
it
is
a
traffic
pattern
for
students
going
to
and
from
school
will
be
on
the
street
so
that
any
cars
coming
from
the
village
school
using
that
route
will
have
an
impact
on
people
walking
and
the
other
part
of
it
is
that
we
live
across
the
street
from
resurrection
lutheran
church.
We
noted
in
their
permit
application
that
they
had
contacted
people
within
an
area.
We
have
never
had
any
contact
with
the
school.

Our
next
speaker
is

AG
AG
I
have
two
asks
of
the
county.
One
is
to
please
delay
your
decision
on
this
permit
until
the
school
and
county
can
have
a
meeting
with
neighbors
to
share
information
and
collaboratively
address
concerns,
and
then
the
second
request
is
to
have
as
a
condition
of
the
permit
that
the
community
will
have
input
to
the
one-year
monitoring
plan.
AG
I
have
concerns
about
the
traffic
because
I
telework
three
to
five
days
per
week,
which
has
given
me
an
understanding
of
the
traffic
pattern
on
washington.
It's
unfortunate
that
the
county
staff
presentation
this
morning
did
not
show
the
pickup
drop-off
plan,
but
you
can
view
it
in
the
county's
report.
AG
The
plan
proposed
is
difficult
to
understand,
but
seems
to
indicate
that
drivers
will
be
lining
up
on
washington
boulevard
in
the
bike
lane
and
then
instructed
to
turn
on
to
potomac
for
drop-off
and
continue
on
potomac
and
then
down
cohaben
back
to
washington
boulevard.
The
plan
indicates
10.
Cars
will
be
lined
up
on
washington
and
15
minute
intervals.
This
is
concerning,
for
several
reasons,
cyclist
driver
and
pedestrian
safety,
unknown
number
of
cars
coming
in
the
morning
on
narrow
neighborhood
streets,
and
I
am
requesting
it
be
reconsidered,
with
county
input.
AG
Also,
as
for
the
miscommunication,
the
village
school
permit
application
states,
the
school
has
distributed
flyers
to
all
homes
within
the
500
foot,
radius
of
the
property.
The
statement
is
false.
We
live
350
feet
from
the
church
and
have
received
no
flyers.
There
are
several
other
inconsistencies
among
the
school's
website.
The
permit
application
and
information
provided
by
the
county
that
are
vital
for
community
members.
AH
Morning,
mr
hi,
good
morning,
my
name
is
mary
detweiler,
and
the
reason
I'm
here
is
that
this
is
my
neighborhood.
I
live
about
two
blocks
away
from
the
resurrection
lutheran
church
and
I
am
a
great
user
of
washington
boulevard.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
traffic
flow
works
as
well
as
the
community
smooth
function
of
everything.
AH
AH
We
have
no
problems
with
the
school
philosophy
or
with
having
the
school
there,
but
first
off
it's
a
very
different
thing
from
when
there
was
a
child
care
with
very
young
children
that
apparently
worked
quite
well,
and
the
very
small
playground
to
the
side
of
the
church
probably
worked
very
well
too.
This
proposal
is
for
something
quite
different.
AH
As
we've
seen,
it
goes
for
the
kindergarten
up
through
eighth
grade,
and
the
school
website
says
that
in
2023
school
year,
starting
school
year,
it
will
be
for
high
school
students.
Will
that
tiny
playground
that
was
appropriate
for
very
young
children
work
for
the
kind
of
recreation
that
these
children
of
all?
These
ages
will
probably
need
so.
My
conclusion
was
that
the
process
needs
to
be
slowed
down
to
the
point
where
there
can
be
dialogue,
discussion,
negotiation
about
how
all
this
works
on
the
parking
issue.
AH
I
physically
walk
through
how
all
this
would
work
with
a
15-minute
drop-off
period,
the
whole
cohort
of
cars
10
cars
would
have
to
be
lined
up
such
that
it
would
work
like
clockwork
and
the
space
that
every
car
would
take
would
eventually
back
up
into
those
10
used
parking
spots
on
the
angle.
Lot
and
traffic
could
start
backing
up
into
the
westbound
lane
of
washington
boulevard.
AI
AI
So
the
like
mary
said,
the
addition
of
a
new
k-8
school
to
the
community
and
county
is
important
and
a
big
impact,
and
although
we
understand
the
original
permit
was
for
a
private
day
nursery
with
similar
hours
in
student
size,
as
noted
in
the
report,
it
wasn't
updated
since
1978
and
a
lot
has
changed
in
44
years.
So
I
emphasized
the
impact
of
a
k-38
school,
not
the
day
nursery.
AI
AA
Yes,
hello,
can
you
hear
me
we
can
good
morning?
Yes,
hello,
hello,
my
name
is
jody
mcgary
and
I
live
five
houses
away
from
the
church.
The
church
is
where
my
children
were
baptized
and
my
children
also
went
to
the
pre-k
program
there
for
three
years.
While
I
want
the
church
to
succeed
in
our
neighborhood,
and
I
wish
the
best
for
their
continued
growth
and
success,
I
do
have
some
concerns.
AA
The
plan
for
the
village
school
does
not
build
confidence
with
the
community.
The
goalposts
have
been
constantly
moved
since
the
permit
application
was
put
in
and
continues
to
this
day.
The
newest
change
in
the
past
two
days
is
a
traffic
pattern
update
that
includes
what
looks
like
a
road
where
there
is
none.
Furthermore,
this
new
road
is
right.
On
top
of
a
very
small
amount
of
playground,
space
that
is
behind
the
church.
AA
AA
I
think
the
board
should
know
that
the
village
school
has
no
relationship
to
the
lutheran
church
other
than
a
tenet
and
landlord
relationship.
Moreover,
the
pastor
of
the
lutheran
church
is
departing
at
august
6.,
so
there's
really
concerns
over
oversight
of
this
potential
tenant
back
in
2000,
when
my
children
were
in
the
pre-k
program.
At
that
church
parking
was
an
issue
then,
and
that
was
only
for
a
half-day
program
and
most
of
those
families
that
went
to
the
pre-k
walk
to
the
school
from
the
surrounding
neighborhood.
AA
I
also
want
to
mention
that
the
pre-k
school
was
previously
at
the
that
was
at
the
church.
Had
staggered
attendance,
meaning
not
all
the
children
were
there
at
the
same
day,
the
impact
caused
from
the
village
schools,
traffic
and
parking
to
the
surrounding
neighborhood
is
a
real
concern.
Several
of
the
streets
around
the
church
don't
have
sidewalks.
AA
AJ
I
live
at
6101,
20th
street
north
I've
been
there
since
2004
and
I'm
here
to
join
my
voice
to
the
others
and
urge
the
board
to
postpone
consideration
of
the
permit.
Until
there
has
been
a
full
discussion
and
analysis
of
the
safety
issues.
Safety
was
not
even
listed
as
a
community
concern
on
the
the
commission's
presentation.
AJ
A
previous
speaker
has
already
mentioned
that
poetin
has
no
sidewalks
20th
street,
where
I
live,
has
no
sidewalks.
Poeton
has
a
steep
hill
that
obstructs
the
views
of
drivers.
AJ
So
when
the
cars
are
leaving
their
drop-off
route,
they
will
have
an
obstructed
view.
20Th
street
is
relevant
and
I
would
like,
if
it's
possible,
to
have
a
slide
4
displayed
there.
It
is
okay,
so
you
can
see
powerton
street
and
you
can
see
at
about
two
o'clock
where
20th
street
begins,
which
has
not
has
been
considered
at
all
in
any
of
the
documentation,
and
it
is
relevant
because
anyone
approaching
the
church
from
the
east
will
be
tempted
to
use
it
when
washington
boulevard
clogs
up,
as
it
usually
does,
on
weekdays.
AJ
AJ
AJ
K
AJ
A
Thank
you
so
much
to
those
who've
joined
us
to
share
concerns
in
person
as
well
as
online.
The
conversation
is
now
with
the
board.
Colleagues,
I
think,
as
I
hear
it,
I'm
seeing
maybe
three
buckets
of
conversation
for
us
this
morning.
One
of
of
process,
including
the
engagement
and
process
conversations
to
date,
as
well
as
a
couple
of
concerns
raised
with
regard
to
future
annual
annual
review
processes
and
what
could
be
expected
there
parking
and
transportation,
I
think,
being
the
dominant
issue.
A
Safety
related,
of
course
being
encompassed
within
that
and
then
any
other
questions
about.
I
guess
what
I
describe
is
intensity
of
use,
whether
that's
the
number
of
students,
staff,
auxiliary
facilities
and
so
forth.
Why
don't
I
begin
by
inviting
any
questions
that
we
may
have
for
the
applicant
or
staff
about
process
how
this
unfolded
or
how
future
use
permit
evaluations
would
work.
Q
It's
it's
sort
of
in
this
bucket,
but
it
doesn't
quite
fit
anyways
but
sort
of
a
foundation,
one
that
I
just
want
to
think
about.
If
you've
got
the
answer-
and
I
think
it's
probably
for
our
staff-
do
we
know
when
the
school
stopped
in
2020?
There
was
a
school
there
before
do.
We
know
how
many
students
were
at
the
school
then
at
that
time,
like
from
you
know,
2015
to
2020
how
many,
how
many
students
were
there,
I'm
assuming?
Maybe
it
wasn't
the
full
60.?
AD
They
were
originally
approved
for
60,
but
I've
heard
that
the
number
was
a
lot
lower
yeah.
Q
Q
Okay-
and
you
don't
know
what
approximately
what
size
it
was:
okay,
because
that's
sort
of
something
I'm
thinking
about.
If,
if
there
were
just
recently
60
students
there,
it
feels
pretty
similar
if
it
was
a
lot
lower,
which
I
suspect
it
was,
I
can
see
how
there
might
be
some
differences.
So
thank
you.
Z
Sure
one
question
is
for
staff.
I
think
you
mentioned
that.
Z
Z
AD
Z
Got
it
okay,
that's
helpful,
and
also,
certainly,
I
think
one
comment
from
residents
was
that
you
got
a
call
the
next
day
and
you
said
you
immediately
recognized.
We
immediately
recognized
that
there
was
a
mistake.
I
just
wanted
to
sort
of
ask
about
that
and
then
a
number
of
oh,
this
is
process,
but
it's
related.
Maybe
I'll
pause,
it's
related
to
the
the
second
part
of
the
next
year.
Z
So
I
do
have
one
more
process,
question
for
the
applicant
and
that
is
have
you
yet
set
a
meeting
to
engage
with
neighbors
or
where
I
mean,
I
think,
from
what
was
shared
today,
that
that
would
be
very
important
and
being
willing
to
do
that.
Outreach
would
be
very
important.
Have
we
have
you
done
that
yet
or
would
you
be
willing
to
do
that
in
the
coming
weeks
or
months.
Z
Okay-
and
I
guess
I
should
have
said
weeks
not
months
because
time
is
short
so
I'll
yield
thanks.
A
Thank
you
so
much.
I
have
just
a
question
myself
as
we
go
down
the
line
with
colleagues
ms
geising
had
asked
what
I
think
is
a
very
fair
and
reasonable
question,
which
is
you
know
at
the
one-year
review?
A
What
assurances
do
we
have
that
the
community
will
have
input
I'll
note,
you
know,
I
think
there
are
a
number
of
use,
permit
conditions
that
suggest
to
me
that
we
will
have
a
lot
of
more
a
lot
more
data
at
a
one-year
review
time,
for
example,
the
requirement
that
the
village
school
provide
and
take
down
and
provide
transportation
performance
monitoring
results,
and
so
I
do
think
that
a
one-year
review
is
going
to
be
really
important
here.
A
Can
could
you,
mr
julicore
or
mr
schreiber
talk
a
little
bit
about
expectations
for
engagement
during
the
one-year
review?
Maybe
what,
if
anything,
we've
learned
from
the
process
of
this
first
use
permit?
That
would
be
improved
at
the
point
of
of
engagement.
I
know
a
lot
of
times
those
are
treated
as
relatively
administrative,
given
the
high
level
of
concern.
What
what
could
we
as
the
board
and
the
community
expect
for
that
one-year
review
process?
With
regard
to
community
input,.
AD
For
our
one-year
review
process,
we'll
follow
the
same
step
of
public
outreach
and
also
the
applicant
will
have
a
personnel
on
staff
which
stays
in
contact
with
community
liaison
okay.
So
we
will
we'll
get
in
touch
with
our
community
liaison
the
applicant
and
as
well
as
the
community
members,
to
ensure
that
the
proper
community
outreach
has
occurred.
A
If
we
wanted
to
ensure
that
there
be
a
community
meeting
prior
to
the
consideration
of
the
one
year
use
permit
review,
would
we
need
to
write
that
in
as
a
use,
permit
condition
or
would
staff
we
would
need
to
okay
all
right?
That's
maybe
for
our
consideration,
as
we
continue
to
work
on
questions
all
right.
E
Sir
dorsey,
thank
you,
madam
chair,
along
those
lines
proposed
condition.
Number
four
about
the
parking
management
plan
outlines
the
administrative
review
process
that
the
applicant
will
need
to
go
through
to
comply.
Is
there
any
reason
from
a
precedent
and
process
standpoint
that
that
parking
management
plan
can't
be
conditioned
to
be
submitted
following
the
meeting
with
the
community
that
ms
ms
vogelai
agreed
to
to
conduct.
AD
Yes,
we
could
do
that,
and
also
the
applicant
will
not
get
their
certificate
of
occupancy
until
the
pmp
is
approved
by
the
zoning
department.
So
she'll
have
to
submit
a
thorough
parking
management
plan
which
illustrate
the
pickup
and
drop
off
in
a
more
concise
manner,
which
staff
will
then
review
before
the
applicant
could
even
open
for
operation.
E
E
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
how
to
ask
this
without
coming
across
as
condescending.
That
is
not
my
intent,
but,
given
that
you
are
of
the
neighborhood,
I'm
surprised
that
you
didn't
realize
that
connecting
with
your
neighbors
would
be
really
important
for
a
few
different
reasons.
One
this
is
arlington.
People
like
to
be
engaged
and
informed
with
what's
going
on
in
their
neighborhood,
but
two
you're
operating
a
school.
Presumably
you
want
to
market
that
opportunity
for
people
who
may
be
interested
in
your
your
educational
philosophy.
E
So
can
you
just
give
me
a
sense
of
why
we're
here
at
this
point
with
a
public
hearing
where
you
know
many
people
are
hearing
about
this
project
as
as
fully
as
it
is,
it
just
seems
a
little
odd
if
you
could
help
me
understand
how
we
got
to
this
point.
AE
Sure
I
believe
we're
here
because
of
the
oversight
on
categorizing
us
as
a
child
care
center,
and
that
opened
this-
I
guess
case
or
issue
up
to
many
questions,
because
because
there
was
not
enough
time
for
the
neighbors
to
react
to
the
fact
that
we
are
actually
a
private
school,
because
if
they
were
under
the
impression
that
we
were
coming
in
as
a
child
care
center,
it's
the
previous
use.
AE
So
that's
your
first
question.
I
believe,
that's
why
we're
here,
the
second,
why
didn't
we
market
are
coming
to
arlington?
And
that
goes
to
the
point
I
made
before
is
we
are
a
small
school?
We
don't
intend
to
grow
bigger
in
arlington.
AE
We
are
coming
in
to
this
school
year
with
48
learners.
Our
max
is
60..
We
are
not.
We
don't
intend
to
drive
growth.
We
we
are
there
for
to
create
to
create
a
community
in
arlington
for
this
school.
AE
AE
It's
it's
my
fault
that
I
that
I
relied
on
12
and
10
year
olds
to
hand
out
flyers
I,
but
we
in
fact
did
and
that
that
was
our
outreach.
AE
We
held
a
meeting
with
the
church
with
their
parishioners
and
in
hindsight
it
would
have
been
it
would
have
been
better
to
or
we
should
have
invited
the
neighbors
as
well
and
not
only
the
parishioners,
but
that
that
we
did
have
a
meeting
with
the
parishioners
of
the
church
that
was
attended
by
our
educators
and
some
of
our
parents.
E
Okay,
but
moving
forward,
you
would
have
just
to
reiterate
your
answer
to
mr
deferenti.
You
would
have
no
issues
having
a
properly
noticed
meeting
with
the
residential
neighbors
as
priority
prior
to
submitting
the
parking
management
plan
and.
P
Yes,
thank
you
ma'am
chair
a
little
bit
digging
in
because
maybe
I
don't
understand
something
you
know
procedural
on
the
certificate
of
occupancy,
so
the
the
condition
as
written
in
the
the
border
report
says
that
the
village
school
will
implement
a
you
know,
pick
up
and
drop
off
regime
with
different
times
staggering,
etc.
P
P
In
fact,
it
cannot
be
conditioned
on,
for
example,
a
public
meeting
or
a
meeting
with
a
neighborhood.
It's
a
good
thing
to
have
a
public
meeting,
but
we
can
so
that
I
wanted
to
figure
out
so
seo
can
be
subject
to
you
know
the
outcomes
of
a
meeting
within
with
the
neighborhood.
AD
Yes
great,
we
will
include
a
condition
to
require
that
the
applicant
meet
with
the
community
members
prior
to
up.
P
So
as
an
additional,
so
it
so,
the
the
the
neighborhood
will
have
a
say
whether
the
you
know
the
checks.
The
safeguards
in
in
in
the
plan
would
be
enough
and
satisfying
for
all
the
neighbors.
Okay
good.
A
second
question
on
on
the
tdm
for
the
staff:
how
how
how
many
people
will
be
working
typically
in
a
day
and
how
are
we
going
to
manage
their
parking
needs?
P
AE
Site
there
are
six
staff
members
on
site
on
a
daily
basis,
two
of
whom
commute
from
the
washington
dc
and
use
public
transportation.
Q
Thank
you,
ms
harvey
yeah
question
for
the
for
the
applicant.
You
said
that
there
were
going
to
be
48
students
to
start
and
you're,
not
looking
to
do
major
growth
when
I,
but
it's
approved
up
to
16,
I
think
you're,
adding
the
high
school
level.
When
are
you
planning
to
increase
beyond
48
students?
I.
AE
Q
You,
and
are
you
planning
to
get
to
60
this
year,
or
is
that
because
you
say,
you've
got
48
right
now.
Are
you
planning
to
expand
to
to
60
by
september,
or
are
you
planning
to
keep
it
48
for
a
year?
It.
Z
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
wanted
to
see
if
I
could
kind
of
clarify.
One
question
is
for
staff,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
I
unders.
I
understand
the
timing
I
drove
over
and
there's
some
signs
that
say
sunday
based
signs
that
say,
handicapped,
but
only
on
for
handicap
parking
right
there,
where
the
drop
off
10
parking
spaces
are
10,
p
cars
I
believe,
could
fit.
Z
U
Yeah,
I
I
think
that
we
could
the
way
the
conditions
are
structured
is
that
that
has
to
be
done
prior
to
the
applicant
receiving
their
certificate
of
occupancy.
So
in
the
if
the
board
is
so
inclined
to
include
a
condition
which
it
sounds
like
they
may
want
to
about,
requiring
the
community
meeting.
I
would
suggest
that
this
be
part
of
that
conversation.
I
would
you
know.
U
Perhaps
that
could
even
occur
prior
to
the
submission
of
that
plan,
so
that
that
could
be
a
point
of
discussion
and
that
can
be
crafted
with
community
input
rather
than
say
distributed
to
the
community
after
was
already
prepared.
So
I
I
don't
see
any
reason
why
we
couldn't
have
that
meeting
sooner
rather
than.
Z
Later
great,
thank
you
and-
and
I
I
think
there
I
won't-
have
just
a
quick
comment
that
we'll
have
a
2023
process
and
I
feel
confident
based
on
this
discussion,
that
we'll
be
wanting
to
have
civic
associations
and
neighbors
fully
engaged
in
that,
but
we're
also
talking
about
the
2022.
So
thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank.
A
You
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
just
about
some
of
the
substantive
concerns
about
parking
and
transportation.
A
Let
me
maybe
begin
by
asking
if
we
could
well,
so
I
think
I
guess
related
questions,
so
we've
had
some
concerns
raised
about
queueing
along
washington
boulevard,
and
I
think
it
seems
to
me
anyway
that
they're
going
to
be
some
ways
in
which
a
k-38
school
is
actually
less
intensive
use
than
a
child
care
use,
there's
some
ways
in
which
it
might
be
more
intensive
on
the
neighborhood,
which
is
to
say
your
childcare
uses.
A
A
Ms
vogle,
could
you
talk
to
us
a
little
bit
and
mr
gilligan,
if
you
have
anything
to
add
here
about
you,
know
the
plan
to
manage
and
ensure
that
that
staggered
drop-off
works
ahead
of
schedule
without,
as
I
think
somebody
pointed
out,
you
know
stressing
out
parents
and
actually
causing
less
safe
driving,
but
also
without
ensuring
that
queuing
isn't
happening
along
washington,
boulevard.
AE
So
this
pickup
and
drop-off
process
is
currently
employed
at
our
current
campus,
and
so
our
families
are
very
well
versed
in
the
15-minute
drop-off
window
and
from
our
staff
side
pick
up
and
drop
off.
It
doesn't
happen
one
car
at
a
time
four
of
our
staff
members
meet
four
cars
at
a
time,
so
it
happens
rather
quickly
and,
like
I
said,
our
staff
is
well
versed
in
it
and
well
practiced,
and
so
are
our
our
families.
A
Thank
you.
That
is,
I
think,
a
pretty
helpful
piece
of
information
for
what
we're
envisioning.
What
happens
now,
if
a
family
arrives
too
early
for
its
drop-off
time,
is
it
you
know,
do
you
start
to
see
them
kind
of
queue
up
and
wait?
No,
we.
AE
Asked
that
they
not
wait
because
of-
and
this
happens
at
our
current
campus
as
well-
we
they
they
can't
queue
up
and
wait
there.
So
we
ask
that
they
circle
or
go
some
problem
until
it's
time
to
drop
off.
A
Z
Just
several
speakers
mentioned
about
the
the
diagram
and
I
just
didn't
know
if
staff
intended
that
not
to
indicate
that
there's
there
is
to
there
is
no
alley
so
a
staff
intended
that
not
to
indicate
an
alley
that,
if
I'm
correct,
I
understand
why
residents
reach
that
conclusion.
And-
and
I
do
I
hear
the
concern
about
going
up
and
around
to
come
back.
But
is
that
just
want
to
confirm
that.
U
Sure
what
I
would
say
that
was
a
an
exhibit
that
was
provided
by
the
applicant.
I
think
the
materials
that
we
alluded
to,
as
shown
in
the
presentation
we
zoomed
our
aerial
image
out.
I
think
the
applicant
just
did
it
a
little
bit
tighter.
I
don't
think
well,
I
know
there's
no.
There
should
be
no
impression
and
there's
no
ability
for
the
applicant
to
cut
a
street
through
behind
their
property.
U
The
intent
is
that
from
a
parking
management
drop-off
perspective,
as
alluded
to
in
condition,
number
four
they'll
be
having
somewhat
of
a
kiss
and
ride
type
of
operation
along
kansas,
extreme
potomac
street,
and
then
folks
will
either
be
able
to
circulate
north
up
to
powhatan
to
come
back
or
go
further
points.
North
there's
also
the
16
parking
spaces
available
along
washington
boulevard.
So,
but
no
we
don't
expect
there
to
be
a
road
cutting
through,
but
but
there
is
that
circulation
route
available
with
the
current
streets.
P
Thank
you,
ma'am
cheer,
so,
besides
that
there
indeed
there
is
no
alley.
I
I
happened
to
drive
by
and
I
saw
no
no
way
to
cut
through
the
place,
not
even
in
the
future,
so
the
problem
with
the
lack
of
sidewalks.
You
know
what
one
concern
is
that
you
know
somebody
will
just
let
their
kids
just
walk
down
on
a
on
a
street
like
paul
down
that
doesn't
have
a
sidewalk.
So
that's
that's
dangerous.
How?
How
did
you?
AE
Our
staff
members
meet
each
child
at
their
car
and
so
and
and
walk
them
to
the
sidewalk
to
or
to
the
entrance
to
the
school.
So
they're
not
going
to
be
walking,
they
will
their
parents
or
carpool
will
drop
them
off
at
the
at
the
entrance
where
a
staff
member
meets
them
at
the
door
and
makes
ensures
that
they're
safely
to
the
sidewalk
and
to
get
to
the
school
to
school
entrance.
Does
that
answer
your
question.
A
Thank
you.
Well,
I
think
oh,
mr
dorsey.
E
So,
thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
just
to
clarify,
I
believe
I
know
this
to
be
true
by
reading
the
conditions,
but
the
website
has
caused
some
concern
about
people
that
sees
you
have
you
have
plans
for
a
future
high
school
cohort,
but
by
condition
you're
not
allowed
to
have
that
in
arlington,
so
that
will
be
a
plan
that
you
implement
at
some
other
location.
E
A
All
right
I'll
just
make
an
observation
by
way
of
maybe
looking
to
mr
karantonis
for
emotion,
if
he's
willing
to
make
one,
I
think
this
conversation
has
been
really
helpful,
as
others
I'm
sure
no
generally
use
permits
of
this
nature
tend
to
end
up
on
our
consent
agenda.
Given
the
the
feedback
and
concern
we
heard
from
the
neighborhood
it's
allowed
for
this
dialogue,
which
I
think
has
been
a
really
important
one.
This
looks
not
unfamiliar
from
a
lot
of
conversations.
A
A
Probably
the
only
way
to
resolve
them,
is
to
let
this
work
for
a
little
bit
of
time
and
and
and
make
sure
that
it
does
to
me.
I
have
confidence
from
listening
to
this
plan
that
this
has
been
evaluated
closely
by
our
staff,
that
it
is
consistent
with
the
with
current
practice
of
the
village
school,
but
I
think
it
is
would
be
reasonable
for
community
members
to
trust
but
verify.
A
So
I
think
you
know
not
only
are
there
pretty
extensive
conditions
about
that
transportation
management
plan
and
his
performance
and
monitoring,
but
to
create-
or
maybe
enshrine,
this
board's
expectation
that
that
dialogue
happened
in
a
way
that
engages
the
community
and
perhaps
builds
on
what
we
learned
from
some
of
the
the
missteps
in
this
process,
I
think
would
be,
would
behoove
us
so,
mr
cartonis,
if
you're
ready,
I
might
call
for
you
to
make
a
motion
and
then
I'll
be
prepared
with
a
if
you'll
accept
a
friendly
amendment
to
sort
of
capture
that,
as
a
condition.
P
So,
thank
you,
madam
chair.
So
the
the
the
motion
is
to
approve
the
use
permit
for
a
private
school
for
up
to
60
children
with
an
associated
modification
of
the
parking
requirement
located
at
6201
washington
boulevard,
subject
to
the
proposed
conditions
of
the
staff
report
and
with
a
county
board
review
in
one
year.
That
is
in
july
2023
and
I'm
sure
I
am
aware
of
a
of
language
of
friendly
addition
or
amendment
which
reads
as
follows.
P
Prior
to
the
county
board,
one
year
review
in
july
2023,
the
applicant
agrees
to
a
community
meeting
to
be
coordinated
with
arlington
county
planning
staff.
The
highland
park
park
overly
null
civic
association,
in
which
data
from
the
performance
and
monitoring
activities
associated
with
the
transportation
management
plan.
Detailed
in
condition
number
six
will
be
reviewed.
A
A
Thank
you,
and
is
that
agreeable
to
the
applicant
as
well?
Yes,
thank
you
and
to
our
attorney
no
problems,
okay,
fantastic!
So
that
motion,
then,
with
this
conditional
condition,
is
on
the
table
for
our
consideration.
Are
there
questions
about
it
or
concluding
comments?
I'm.
Q
Just
concluding
comments,
I
think
I'm
I'm
going
to
support
the
motion.
I
appreciate
the
the
discussions.
A
couple
of
things
that
you
know
the
discussion
is
brought
out.
One
is
that
this
is
a
transfer
of
an
existing
school.
That's
already
functioning.
I
had
envisioned
this
as
a
new
school
where
parents
don't
know
the
drill
students
don't
know
the
drill
staff
everything's
new.
Q
No
you've
already
got
this
kind
of
way
of
dropping
people
off
and
things
so
that
that
helps
me
have
confidence
that
you
know
what
you're
doing
and
the
fact
that
I
assume
the
church
still
is
open
on
sundays
and
people
come
on
sundays,
so
there's
there's
traffic's
been
coming
and
going
here
for
quite
a
while
and
still
continues
at
least
on
sundays,
and
if
that
were
a
problem,
I
assume
we
would
heard
about
it
from
the
neighbors.
So
with
the
review
and
the
and
the
meeting
with
the
community
coming
up.
Q
Z
Thank
you
did
we
have
a
second
on
the
original
motion?
You
did
sorry
sorry
about
that.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
so
concluding
comments.
The
friendly
amendment
helps
certainly
also,
as
mr
schreiber
gently
helped
me
realize,
there's
condition
four
still
and
then
there's
language
later
in
the
staff
report
that
I
think
helps
address.
Z
What
we
hope
will
happen
in
the
next
few
weeks,
in
addition
to
the
2023
process,
appreciate
all
the
the
work
that
miss
miss
vogelei
and
also
mr
jolly
cure,
if
you
can
can
do
I
really
appreciate
your
you
know
your
honesty
on
the
mistake
you
know
and
then
owning
it
and
bringing
it
together,
and
now
we
have
some
work
over
the
next
four
or
five
weeks.
If,
if
I
can
respectfully
suggest
that,
but
two
concluding
thoughts,
one
is
that
inquiry.
Z
Inquiry-Based
learning
is
near
and
dear
to
my
heart,
and
that
seems
like
a
lot
of
what
I
read
on
the
on
the
website.
I
think
that
there's
some
great
pieces
to
that
and
sort
of
more
broadly
applying
that,
of
course,
also
to
the
neighborhood,
is
sort
of
the
spirit
of
what
I
see
is
happening.
I
appreciate
your
honesty
and
owning
that
things
could
and
perhaps
should
have
been
done
a
little
differently,
but
willingness
to
move
forward
with
respect
to
the
arlington
way.
I
guess
and
neighbors
concerns.
Z
I
feel
that
the
high
school
point
is
part
of
reaching
that
consensus.
I
won't
claim
that
there's
unanimity,
that
everything
is
perfect,
but
I
do
hope
that
our
discussion
today,
I
feel
at
least
satisfied
that
we've
gotten
closer
to
consensus,
if
not,
perhaps
unanimity,
because
I
certainly
understand
the
concerns,
but
we
have
tried
to
be
diligent
thorough
on
this
and
for
those
reasons,
I'm
happy
to
support
this.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
mr
mercy,
and
then
mr
carantonis.
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I'd,
like
to
further
move
that
we
amend
the
main
motion
to
include
a
change
to
condition
number
four,
and
I
apologize
for
not
having
this
up,
having
provided
advanced
notice
to
put
this
up
on
the
screen,
but
it's
pretty
easy
amendment.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
Perfect
so,
as
you
can
see,
the
original
language
requires
this
parking
management
plan.
It's
entirely
an
administrative
process,
so
in
order
to
effectuate
an
ability
for
the
community's
input
to
go
into
the
development
of
said
plan,
I
move
that
this
language
be
amended
to
say
the
applicant
agrees
to
submit
a
parking
management
plan,
comma
developed
with
input
from
a
broadly
advertised.
P
So
I'm
inclined
to
to
accept
the
language
I
don't
see.
I
mean
in
the
conversation
we
have
had
the
you
know,
there
is
condition
number
three
that
already
tells
the
applicant
to
to
to
to
appoint
a
a
contact
person.
Conditional
four
is
what
is
here.
I
meant
I'm
fine
with
this.
E
C
AK
E
The
expectation
that
this
would
be
a
community
meeting,
the
intent
is
not
to
handpick
who
from
the
community
could
it
could
come,
but
that
it
would
be
broadly
advertised,
I'm
not
one.
I
don't
want
to
be
prescriptive
into
how
we
accomplish
that.
Hopefully
we're
not
at
the
place
where
this
has
to
be
parsed
out
specifically,
but
if
you
recommend
that
we
do,
I
can
try.
AK
I
think
this
is
fine.
If
we
we
don't
seek
to
enforce.
You
know
at
some
level
detail
what
the
minimum
level
of
advertisement
would
be.
AK
If
you
look
at
condition
number
three,
it
refers
to
everyone
who
has
to
be
communicated
to
by
the
neighborhood
liaison.
Would
you
like
to
refer
to
that
as
far
as
who
we
would
advertise
to.
AC
AK
AK
Yes,
developed
with
input
from
about
from
my
broadly
advertised.
AK
AB
AK
AK
P
Fine
with
mr
dorsey
is
proposing
that,
and
I
am
fine
with
accepting
that
final
shaped
and
and
crafted
language
as
a
friendly
amendment.
Community
meeting
needs
to
be
deleted.
P
Oh
yeah,
there
we
go
okay,
so
we
can
proceed.
Okay,.
A
Fantastic
all
right.
In
that
case
we
have
a
vote,
perhaps
not
the
most
elegantly
worded
condition
in
the
history
of
this
body,
but
I
think
it
communicates
the
intent
and
the
good
news
is.
This
will
all
be
happening
in
the
coming
weeks,
so
there
will
not
be
a
a
need
to
go
back
to
divine
the
the
intent
from
that
language
for
very
long
all
right.
Unless
there
is
any
further
conversation,
I
believe
we're
ready
for
a
vote
all
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
aye
any
opposed
that
cares
unanimously.
A
Thank
you,
as
ms
garvey
said,
we
wish
you
luck
and
to
the
neighbors.
We
appreciate
your
coming
in
and
hope
that
these
are
avenues
to
resolve
any
removing
concerns.
Okay,
with
that,
we
are
going
to
take
a
brief
recess
for
lunch,
I'm
going
to
propose
that
we
return
at
12
30
to
hear
our
final
item.
Thank
you.
So
much
see
you
at
12,

Item
number
39
is
request
to
authorize

board
to
consider
actions
pertaining
to

including
adoption
of

The
study
area
is
located
at
the
western
edge
of
the
courthouse
metro
station
area
and
is
within
a
quarter
mile
radius
of

the
block
bounded
by
wilson
boulevard
to
the
north
north
cleveland
street,
to
the
east
clarendon
boulevard
to
the
south
and
north
danville
street
to
the
west.
AL
The
applicant's
request
is
a
go
up:
amendment
from
service
commercial
to
high
office
apartment
hotel.
The
applicant
anticipates
also
requesting
a
rezoning
from
the
c2
zoning
district
to
the
co
zoning
district.
This
rezoning
request
would
be
examined
in

application.
AL
AL
Input
and
feedback
on
building
height
and
density
throughout
the
study
process
has
been
diverse.
The
initial
online
engagement
session
sought
feedback
from
stakeholders
regarding
which
of
three
preliminary
massing
scenarios.
They
felt
best
reflected
draft
guiding
principles
that
were
initially
developed
for
the
study
and
for
discussion.
AL
AL
Diverse
views
on
building
height
and
density
were
also
expressed
at
the
january
and
may
lrpc
meetings
on
one
side.
Staff
received
feedback
that
expressed
a
desire
for
greater
building,
height
and
density
and
at
the
may
lrpc
meeting,
lrpc
feedback,
supportive
of
greater
building
height
and
density,
expressed
a
preference
for
additional
building,
height
and
density
above
the
preliminary
staff
recommendations,
with
a
desire
to
consider
a
designation
of
high
office
apartment
hotel
or
the
designation,
medium
office
apartment
hotel
and
an
allowance
for
up
to
16
stories
in
building
height.
AL
AL
The
designation
allows
for
a
multi-storey
residential
building
with
retail
or
retail,
equivalent
uses,
which
is
consistent
with
feedback
received
during
the
study
regarding
desired
land
uses
this.
This
designation
also
allows
for
taller
building
heights
than
other
medium
density,
mixed-use
glove
designations,
allowing
for
greater
height
in
the
center
of
the
block
and
greater
tapering
down
to
the
edges
of
the
study
area.
AL
The
total
residential
density
for
this
model
is
approximately
220
units
per
acre
and
the
total
commercial
density
is
approximately
2.5
far.
The
model's
density
of
220
units
per
acre
is
approximately
90
percent
above
115
units
per
acre.
The
standard
site
plan
density
for
residential
uses
in
the
co
2.5
zoning
district
that
is
typically
found
with
medium
office

A
Excellent,
mr
murphy,
thank
you
so
much
for
that
presentation
for
the
extensive
work.
I
know
that
we
are
joined
again
by
the
chair
of
our
planning.
Commission,
mr
weir,
I
don't
believe
we
have
any
other
commission
representatives
with
us
today.
Is
that
right?
Yes,
that's!
Correct,
excellent!
Well,
mr
weir,
the
floor
is
yours
once
again,
thank
you
for
the
considerable
engagement
of
both
lrpc
and
the
planning
commission
as
a
whole.
On
this
item.
X
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
county
board,
long
time,
no
see
again
for
the
record
daniel.
We
are
here
on
behalf
of
the
planning
commission.
The
commission
recommends,
recommends
advertisement
of
the
hearings
to
adopt
the
the
the
study
document.
However,
as
noted
at
the
full
co
2.5
16
story
limit,
the
commission
heard
this
item.
On
july
6th
there
were
12
public
speakers
breaking
roughly
in
half
support
of
advertising
maximum
allow
a
densable
allowable
density
and
and
roughly
half
in
opposition
to
any
additional
density.
X
The
commissioners
were
overall,
very
positive
on
the
study
document,
and
rightly
so.
It
is
a
richly,
detailed
and
highly
developed
study.
X
X
Discussion
about
affordable
housing
issues
are
consistent
with
just
about
every
other
project
that
we've
heard
with
a
residential
component.
I
suspect
that
there's
a
consensus
or
near
to
it,
albeit
informal
among
commissioners.
The
density
should
come
with
on-site,
committed,
affordable
housing
units
and
that
we
continue
to
see
too
few
three-bedroom
calves
delivered.
X
The
number
of
bedrooms
is
an
especially
heightened
concern
given
federal
requirements
that
children
assigned
different
genders
at
birth
have
separate
bedrooms.
These
restrictions
regulate
consumer
choice
and
they
restrict
the
availability
of
calfs
sized
for
families
with
more
than
one
or
two
children.
They
also
put
families
with
lgbtq
children
at
risk
of
losing
their
housing,
while
changing
these
restrictions
is
beyond
the
county's
power.
Reducing
their
impact
by
encouraging
sufficient
supply
is
within.
AM
X
That
that
explains
the
feedback.
I
was
worried
that
it
was
something
about
me.
The
commission
struggled
to
understand
the
practical
implications
of
proceeding
with
the
12
story
cap
on
the
glop
study.
This
is
a
point.
That's
that's
that's
raised
throughout
the
documents
and-
and
I
think
hopefully
won't
become
relevant
until
until
we're
back
here
in
september.
X
So
I'm
probably
going
to
skip
this
paragraph
for
this
point
as
as
noted
that
the
commission
thinks
that
there
is
more
discussion
to
be
had
on
these
questions,
which
is
why
we
ask
to
authorize
hearings
to
allow
that
discussion
and
we
are
grateful
that
staff
is
supporting
that
at
least
at
this
stage,
and
that
concludes
my
remarks.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
might
have.
A
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
conversation.
Okay.
We
are
going
to
go
now
to
public
comments
associated
with
this
request
to
advertise.
Madam
clark,
I'll
look
to
you
to
call
the
first
speakers.
C
Yes,
our
first
speaker
is
elizabeth,
craig,
followed
by
cath.
I'm
sorry,
kate,
bates.
A
AC
AC
I'm
a
firm
believer
in
smart
growth
and
comprehensive
planning
that
means
building
on
arlington's
gold,
national
planning
achievement
and
ensuring
that
this
community
continue
to
be
a
safe
and
walkable
community.
What
we
should
not
be
doing
is
planning
this
community
block
by
block,
which
is
what
we're
talking
about
today.
It
doesn't
make
sense
to
look
at
one
block
and
make
decisions
without
looking
at
the
landscape,
especially
for
a
block
that
is
not
even
owned
by
one
owner,
and
it
seems
to
be
to
be
on
the
behest
of
the
developer.
AC
The
recommend
the
recommendation
is
to
substantially
change
the
character
and
divert
from
previous
thoughtful
planning
by
placing
a
high
rise
of
up
to
16
stories
in
the
middle
of
the
low
rise
area.
If
the
climate
wants
to
do
that,
that's
fine,
but
we
just
need
the
time
to
do
it.
We
we
do
need
to
talk
about
impact,
we
talk
about
the
impact
and
talk
in
terms
of
traffic
parking
infrastructure,
green
space.
AC
AM
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
I'm
kate
bates
president
and
ceo
of
the
arlington
chamber
of
commerce,
and
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
chamber,
to
ask
that
the
board
move
forward
the
rta,
as
recommended
by
the
planning
commission,
with
the
maximum
height
cap
of
16
stories,
as
allowed
within
zoning
category
co.
2.5.
AM
As
stated
in
our
december
2021
letter
to
planning
staff,
the
chamber
supports
additional
density,
especially
in
established
bus
and
real
transit
corridors
and
land
use
policy
and
regulations
that
are
flexible
to
attract
investment
in
arlington,
and
this
site
proves
a
great
opportunity
to
do
just
that.
The
courthouse
west
side
is
within
easy
walking
distance
of
existing
transit,
including
the
courthouse
and
clarendon
metro
stations,
as
well
as
several
bus
lines
that
run
along
wilson
and
clarendon
boulevard
and
a
high
concentration
of
jobs,
services
and
retail.
AM
To
continue
to
increase
housing.
Affordability,
arlington
county
should
remove
barriers
to
the
provisions
of
housing
supply,
including,
but
not
limited
to
limitations
on
density,
allowing
a
higher
maximum
height
still
provides
the
opportunity
for
further
refinement
in
the
4.1
site
plan
process,
including
potential
tapering,
to
respond
to
the
concerns
from
some
over
heights,
which
are
needed
to
provide
the
much
needed
increased
housing
stock.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
AN
There
we
go
welcome
good
afternoon,
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
board.
I
am
scott
pedowitz,
I'm
with
the
apartment
and
office
building
association,
I'm
also
a
nearly
14
and
a
half
year
resident
of
this
courthouse
neighborhood.
I
encourage
you
to
adopt
the
manager's
recommendation
for
the
advertisement
to
include
the
flexibility
for
all
heights
allowed
under
medium
oah
and
co
2.5
zoning.
AN
AO
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair,
mr
mr
vice
chair
members
of
the
board,
thank
you.
I'm
anne
beaudine,
I'm
speaking
today
on
behalf
of
arlingtonians
for
our
sustainable
future.
Asf
is
asking
united
men
that
glop
for
this
parcel
from
service
commercials
to
medium
office
apartment
hotel
for
the
following
reasons.
Asf
is
concerned
that
arlington
has
not
planned
adequate
services
or
budget
budgeted
for
the
consequences
of
a
commitment
made
in
2018
under
then
current
zoning
to
allow
up
to
63
000
more
residents
by
2045..
AO
These
plans
and
missing
middle
efforts
ask
us
to
accept
the
same
poor
logic
that
there
is
no
need
to
plan
for
large
numbers
of
people
that
higher
land
use
makes
certain
pentagon
city
alone
adds
twelve
thousand
people,
but
that
area
got
no
community
school.
No
community
owned
parked
with
a
ball
field.
No
community
center
county
staff
told
these
these
residents
that,
if
they
wanted
a
new
school
it
would
be
have
to
be
put
on
their
park
and
in
amazon.
Employee
park
is
not
how
you
form
a
new
community.
AO
The
county
has
also
said
every
month
that
you
have
approved
code
exceptions
for
more
infill,
massing
setbacks,
reduced
parking
ratios
or
penthouses
that
don't
count
towards
gross
floor
area.
You
pretend
that
sidewalks
in
pentagon,
city
and
balconies
on
columbia,
pike,
equal
green
space.
This
massive
gifting
to
developers
is
short-changing
our
residents
and
is
not
sustainable.
So
we
ask
that
you
provide
for
courthouse
west
a
site-specific
fiscal
and
environmental
impact
analysis.
Only
then
would
asf
consider
upward
ratcheting
of
density.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Miss
bye.
B
Good
afternoon
at
the
planning
commission
hearing,
I
was
shocked
and
perturbed
by
the
manner
in
which
applicant's
counsel
interjected
the
entitlement
with
which
he
demanded
16
stories
and
his
attempt
to
intimidate
staff
and
the
commissioners
to
succumb
to
pressure.
On
what
basis
does
the
applicant
believe
that
the
change
in
zoning
is
rightfully
theirs
when
a
developer
purchases,
land
that
is
known
for
a
different
purpose,
height
and
density
than
their
plans?
B
That
is
the
risk
they
choose
to
take
neighboring
community
input
must
equally
be
given
taken
and
given
with
significant
weight,
applicants
requests
and
staff's
recommendation
go
way
beyond
what
was
ever
envisioned
for
this
site
by
the
globe.
This
site
is
supposed
to
be
the
trough
between
two
bull's-eyes
above
metros.
It
is
abutted
by
low
density
on
all
four
sides.
Any
change
in
policy
for
this
will
set
precedence.
B
The
club
in
this
area
won
the
planning
profession's
highest
award
for
excellence
in
implementation.
It
balances
areas
of
high
density,
with
smooth
transitions
to
low
density.
It
envisions
a
different
character
and
flavor
for
each
neighborhood
along
the
corridor.
We
do
not
need
multiple
roselands.
We
need
a
rosalind,
a
courthouse,
a
clarendon
and
a
boston.
They
do
not
need
to
merge
into
each
other
and
become
indistinguishable.
B
Most
importantly,
we
need
development
that
fits
into
its
neighborhood
and
is
sustainable,
along
with
all
the
other
increased
density
plants
for
the
area
near
the
courthouse
and
clearing
their
metro
stops
at
the
bull's-eyes.
If
the
county
wants
to
change
the
character
of
the
area,
then
a
larger,
more
comprehensive
study
of
the
glop
is
needed.
12
and
16
stories
are
not
sustainable
for
this
site.
All
the
already
planned
developments
within
close
proximity
will
strain
services,
facilities,
parks,
traffic,
schools,
transportation
and
infrastructure
for
the
area.
B
The
site
lacks
access
to
the
major
thoroughfares
and
will
create
cuts
through
traffic
in
adjacent
neighborhoods.
The
metro
tunnel,
alongside
will
constrain
the
depth
of
the
development
staff,
have
not
met
the
burden
of
proof.
The
increased
density
for
this
site
is
sustainable,
I'm
also
dismayed
okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
AP
AP
We
already
feel
this
in
our
schools:
over-packed
classrooms,
shortfall
of
teachers
and
staff.
This
also
includes
school
transportation.
Standards
of
learning
have
dropped
only
those
with
economic
leverage
able
to
hire
tutors
or
extracurricular
activities
to
supplement
education.
That's
not
me
all
the
all,
the
all
those
lucky
enough
to
have
two
parents
to
help
their
kids
with
homework.
We
fill
this
in
our
overcrowded
playgrounds,
so
no
space
to
play.
We
fill
this
on
up.
We
feel
this
on
our
streets,
filthy
with
dog
excrement
from
irresponsible
dog
owners.
AP
Several
dog
attacks,
my
five-year-old,
was
bitten
as
owners
don't
want
to
go
to
overcrowded
and
filthy
dog
parks.
We
fill
this
in
our
ever
dirtying
parks
with
broken
glass
used,
condoms
unleash
dogs,
as
budget
cuts,
don't
have
enough
rangers
to
protect
and
keep
these
facilities
clean
and
safe.
We
feel
this
on
our
streets
as
they
become
more
and
more

drivers

too
many

We
feel
this
more
and
more
in
arlington
parks
and
recreation
county
classes,
as
they
fill
up
with
waiting
lists.
Now,
in
the
hundreds
due
to
increasing
population
growth,
I
rely
on
these
classes
for
my
kids
as
a
single

household
as
a
single
income
household.
I
am
that
missing
middle
that
I
hear
arlington

say
they
want
to
keep.

am
the
demographic
that
relies
on
the
ever
depleting
overburdened
population
of
clarendon,
courthouse
areas,
facilities
and
education.

I
therefore
implore
the
board
to
not
overbuild.
Yes,
housing
is
required,
but
the
glup
should
not
exceed
more
than
six
stories,
as
expressed
by
the
community
members
in
the
initial
survey
for
the
above
stated
reasons,
developers
have
profitable
agendas,
not
ones
that
will
live,
contribute
and
survive
in
these
communities.
Thank
you

your

consideration.
AQ
As
you
know,
I
live
near
boston
in
buckingham
neighborhood.
I've
been
impacted
by
this
in
my
neighborhood
attacked
by
this
kind
of
development
over
development
for
many
years.
This
is
nothing
new
to
us
and
we,
we
kind
of
we
always
object
against
it,
but
you
always
do
it.
I
I
would
like
to
report
comment
on
some
other
people.
If
I
said,
planning
commission
said
that
there's
nothing
there's
the
the
old
plans
are
inadequate
or
are
are,
are
anti-antiquated
no
they're,
not
antiquated.
The
original
pans
are
very
good.
AQ
What
is
antiquate
not
antiquated,
but
stupid
is
what
you're
doing
now.
Furthermore,
they're
this
is,
they
said:
there's
a
need
for
new
housing,
there's,
not
a
need
for
new
or
luxury
housing,
which
is
full
have
that
it
will
at
most
add
a
few
calves
and,
more
likely
will
not
add
any
cash,
because
they'll
just
contribute
to
the
affordable
housing
fund,
which
will
put
her
for
the
housing
health
outside
of
the
corridors.
AQ
AQ
Basically
remember
the
neighborhood
is
saying:
has
consistently
said
that
about
about
half
of
them
are
saying
half
the
respondents,
almost
most
of
which
came
from
the
neighbors
saying,
don't
build
any
higher
than
six
floors.
This
is
a
major
community
thing.
It's
it's
every
community
around
that
the
the
boston
card
is
saying
that,
furthermore,
clarendon
courthouse
is
not
close
to
the
I-66
or
a
highway.
AQ
People
have
to
drive
through
it
to
go
to
the
highway
isis
to
the
south
west
of
boston
needed
to
be
widened
because
it
accounts
for
the
traffic
that
was
caused
by
caused
by
the
of
the
rosterboards
of
corridor.
Next
time,
there's
one
that's
going
to
take
out
residences
in
parkland,
and
inevitably,
if
you
keep
doing
this,
that
will
happen,
they
do
just
traffic
studies.
They
never
look
at
the
studies
on
the
other
state
highways.
AQ
The
schools,
of
course,
will
be
a
problem.
This
is
residential
this
these
corridors
and
that
some
of
the
major
things
about
the
office.
Well,
they
what
they
change
that
you're
gonna
get
less
revenue,
more
crowding,
more
need
for
schools.
There
was
never.
There
was
no
real
little
real
need
for
a
12-story
building
or
anything
higher.
The
building
would
probably
contain
luxury
residential
uses
uses
the
bull's
eye.
Contact
is
much
better,
otherwise,
it's
just
plain
sprawling.
It
sprawls
out
and
gradually,
and
this
is
for
all
believe
it
or
not.
AQ
Even
though
it's
not
in
the
suburbs,
this
is
sprawl.
The
the
courthouse
is
so
stick
with
the
boat,
with
a
bullseye
density
and
again
one
thing
for
public
spaces.
Nothing
uses
this
public
space.
Please
recommend
that
the
study
doctrine
safely
the
space
will
be
a
green
area,
not
a
paved
plaza.
This
is
important.
The
boston
reservoirs
of
current
has
too
much
favor
and
too
little
green
space.
AQ
AB
That's
important
afternoon
county
board.
Chair
members,
I've
been
a
civic
association
president
for
14
months
and
we'll
step
down
this
thursday.
My
goal
was
to
make
clarendon
dog
park
nicer,
a
50
000
square
foot
park
by
joyce
motors
and
fix
a
reckless
driving
problem
around
11th
street
park
and
clarendon.
I
haven't
succeeded
speaking
of
residents
around
here.
I
sense
the
homeowners
want
four
to
six
stories
and
renters.
Both
short-term
transient
and
long-term
renters
want
17
stories.
AB
20
years
ago.
The
county
board
members
and
residents
who
designed
clarendon
did
an
excellent
job
so
good
that
this
is
the
most
popular
part
of
arlington.
If
not
the
state
of
virginia.
The
question
is:
why
does
arlington
now
want
to
make
it
like
boston?
There
are
many
single-story
commercial
structures
in
clarendon
that
can
and
will
be
converted
to
six
stories
in
the
future
near
future
plenty
of
units
coming
to
clarendon.
How
much
is
enough
of
my
initiatives?
The
reckless
driving
was
my
biggest
concern,
so
someone
can
get
seriously
injured
or
killed.
AB
The
problem
is
google
maps
and
waze.
They
send
drivers
racing
down
residential
streets,
never
designed
for
this
type
of
traffic,
so
they
can
save
two
seconds
not
waiting
at
a
red
light
on
main
roads,
more
development,
more
cars,
the
map
application
find
ways
to
route
them
through
residential
streets.
This
is
actually
a
problem
all
across
arlington,
but
no
one
can
figure
out
why
arlington's
not
doing
anything
about
it,
and
this
makes
arlington
car-centric
not
people-centric,
nor
support
the
car-free
diet
nor
vision,
zero,
which
the
county
board
supports.
AB
Most
progressive
cities
d-list
map
routes
like
this
using
methods
I
sent
to
ds
transportation,
but
they
were
not
receptive
but
again,
county
board
makes
the
actual
policies
for
solutions
got
a
letter
from
the
last
year,
county
board,
chair,
said
I'll.
Look
into
it
and
nothing's
been
done.
Talk
to
neighbors
around
the
area,
they're
all
scared
for
the
kid's
safety.
AB
Many
close
calls
one
briefer
just
said
her
daughter
was
hit.
I
found
out
the
planning
commission
lion.
Village
has
the
same
problem,
which
is
on
the
opposite
side
of
this.
This
development
will
exponentially
continue
to
ruin
our
residential
streets
if
arlington
wants
to
be
inclusive
and
diverse
for
pedestrians
and
cyclists,
let's
copy
other
progressive
cities
for
solutions
next
issue
with
cyclists
and
pedestrian
safety.
AB
I
cycle
daily
and
the
lanes
are
always
blocked
off
by
cars.
Sent
a
video
to
arlington.
Now
yesterday
has
been
posted
and
a
lot
of
comments
saying
we
need
more
safer
next
issue
is
the
property
owners
paying
six
percent
tax
increases.
Crc
wants
the
moon
on
this,
but
instead
of
the
developers
paying
a
cash
profit
fee
exchange
of
value
they're
paying
like
30
on
the
dollar,
with
like
affordable
housing
units.
Yesterday,
false
choice
sent
a
press
release
of
their
latest
development.
It
got
tax
receipts
to
high
school
property.
Tax
rate
went
down
renovated
library.
AB
In
summary,
to
quote
the
notorious
big,
more
stories,
more
problems
with
arlington's
inability
to
fix,
reckless
driving,
shortcuts
inability
to
enforce
safety
for
cyclists
and
pedestrians,
inability
to
get
developers
that
pay
for
second-order
effects,
like
other
progressive
cities,
do
17
stories
will
negatively
impact
arlington.
However,
if
arlington
could
fix
these
issues,
17
stories
would
get
more
support
thanks
for
your
time,.
C
AR
Hey
good
morning
or
good
afternoon,
I
guess
it
is
now
when
I
got
here
was
the
morning
as
as
it
was
for
you,
my
name
is
greg
wood,
I'm
a
clarendon
courthouse
resident,
the
civic
association
member,
but
I'm
just
speaking
on
my
behalf
today.
I
don't
speak
often
before
the
board,
so
I
wrote
everything
down
and
I'm
not
wearing
a
jacket,
but
I
think
I
should
reconsider
that.
Maybe
next
time
seems
like
that's
the
thing
to
do.
I'm
familiar
with
this
site
and
I
walk
by
it
nearly
every
day.
AR
AR
It
couldn't
be
farther
away
from
a
metro
station
if
it
tried
in
this
in
this
corridor
and
while
I
think
one
of
the
great
things
about
the
clarendon
sector
plan
is
that
it
anticipated
and
encouraged
development
and
we've
seen
the
benefits
of
that
absent
a
similar
planning
process.
I
think
we're
leading
into
problems,
as
other
speakers
mentioned
about
you,
know,
resources
like
parks
and
schools
that
just
haven't
been
considered
in
the
plan
or
the
report.
AR
The
other
thing
I'll
say
is
that
the
most
popular
option,
the
six
story
option
from
the
survey
that's
cited
in
the
report-
is
isn't
isn't
the
one
that
got
brought
forward
and
and
there's
some
careful
wording
in
the
report
to
sort
of
hedge
around
the
idea
that
there's
similar
developments
in
the
balsa
and
rosalind
corridor.
But
there's
nothing
like
like
this.
In
this
immediate
area
or
neighborhood.
AR
I
was
surprised
that
the
advertisement
proposed
advertisement
anticipates
a
building
the
same
height
as
the
one
we're
in
now,
and
yet
it's
in
a
this
one's
over
a
metro
station
and
the
other
one,
as
I
said,
is
as
far
away
as
it
could
be
in
this
corridor,
and
we
also
know
developers
don't
contract
the
envelope,
so
whatever
we
start
with
now
is
only
likely
to
expand,
that's
just
the
natural
pressure.
AR
Finally,
the
rationale
given
by
some
of
the
planning
commissions
for
their
endorsement
was
preserving
maximum
flexibility,
but
that
doesn't
sound
like
planning
to
me,
so
I
would
hope
that
they
would
reconsider
their
recommendation
again.
Continuing
the
conversation
is
right,
but
it
happened
before
not
after
we're
in
in
parallel
with
this,
this
recommendation.
Thank
you.

Hello,
miss
girl.
Can
you
hear
me
now
hi
hi?
My
name
is
elizabeth
farrell,
and
this
is
the
first
time
that
I've
spoken
to
the
county
board.
I'm
a
single
mom
and
I've
lived
in
arlington
for
about
15
years,
but
I've
looked
at
my
current
house
for
the
last
seven
years.
I
live
at
the
corner
of
danville
and
triton
street.
I
will
be
able
to
see
this
new
building
outside
my
window.
I
have
written
too
many
people
on
my
block
and
I
think
that
I'm
about
to
say
accurately
oppresses
their
feelings
as
well.
AS
AS
Families
that
are
about
collectively
there
are
15
children
under
the
age
of
18
and
living
just
on
hard
walk
between
franklin
street
and
key
boulevard.
We
have
many
concerns
about
the
height
and
side
of
the
building,
but
specifically,
we
have
concerns
about
the
traffic.
We
are
a
field
street,
which
means
we
are
a
two-way
street.
That's
only
just
only
three
lanes
wide
with
parts
on
both
sides
there's
a
light
at
danville
and
langston,
and
so
both
blue
maps
and
waves
direct
traffic
directly
down
our
streets
regularly
people
drive
way
too
fast
on
our
street.

This
graphic
was
included
in
each
of
the
five
sector
plans
which
in
turn
were
adopted
as
policy
by
the
county
board
and
is
still
county
policy,
notably
this
bullseye
policy
puts
the
highest
height
and
density
over
each
metro
station
and
slopes
down
to
the
neighborhoods
and
also
slopes
down
in
height
and
density
between
the
stations,
leaving.
What
I
call
the
troughs
between
the
stations
the
troughs
are
marked
in
yellow
the
courthouse
west
project
is
smack
in
the
middle
of
a
trough
marked
with
an
x
with
current
county
policy.
AT
This
site
should
remain
low
in
height
and
density,
as
c2
now
times
have
changed
since
1984..
Currently,
the
county
board
is
trying
to
address
a
critical
housing
shortage
for
middle
income
people.
It
may
be
appropriate
to
increase
the
height
and
density
along
the
entire
metro
line,
making
more
of
a
spine
than
a
series
of
bullseyes.
AT
AT
We
need
to
look
at
this
currently
unallocated
potential
development
for
the
whole
corridor,
see
how
all
of
these
developments
would
affect
our
need
for
schools,
storm
water,
runoff
parks
and
recreation
needs
traffic
and
parking
and
make
a
plan
that
includes
all
of
these
things
as
part
of
the
redevelopment
with
proper
planning.
The
county
would
have
the
potential
to
build
missing
middle
housing
here,
as
this
is
as
in
this
as
yet
unallocated
development.
AT
If
we
could
capture,
two-thirds
of
the
resulting
270
residential
units
were
missing
middle.
That
would
be
an
extra
180
extra
units
for
missing
middle
on
this
one
block,
thank
you
for
your
consideration.
I
have
loved
living
in
central
arlington
for
the
last
46
years.
Please
make
decisions
that
will
serve
arlington
for
the
next
46
years.
Do
not
accept
this
study,
use
the
study
to
decide
to
look
at
the
policy
for
the
whole

The
block
in
question
is
covered
by
the
county's
courthouse
sector
plan,
which
calls
for
service
commercial
buildings
on
the
site.
The
site
is
currently
zoned
service,
commercial,
c2,
the
neighbors
who
live
close
to
this
site
want
low
mixed
use.
This
would
allow
for
up
to
six
stories.
AU
AU
The
county
survey
that
went
out
to
the
community
earlier
this
year
on
courthouse
west
was
very
flawed
when
it
asked
the
respondents
what
size
building
would
they
like
to
see
on
it?
The
current
land
use
plan
and
zoning
was
not
a
choice.
This
should
have
been
the
base
case.
It
was
like
asking
somebody
on
a
diet.
AU
Do
they
want
a
24
ounce
or
the
32
ounce
steak?
The
6
ounce
steak
was
not
an
option.
There
also
was
no
place
to
write
in
comments
on
the
survey
about
the
plan.
It
was
a
done
deal
if
you
responded
to
the
survey.
The
minimum
number
of
floors
that
you
could
pick
was
12.,
so
this
resulted
in
a
biased
survey.

Arlington's
planning
in
the
metro
corridor
follows
the
nub
concept
used
in
northwest
washington
and
other
places
with
greatest
heights
at
the
metro
stations
and
lower
heights
farther
away.
This
is
what
the
long
time
plan
for
the
rb
quarter
calls
for.
The
building
heights
and
densities
should
taper
down
between
stations
and
be
consistent
with
the
long
time
county.
This
long
time,
county
planning
principle.
AU
The
proposed
building
heights
present
a
problem
in
that
the
height
of
the
buildings
on
the
north
side
of
wilson,
just
opposite
are
one
and
two
stories.
Twelve-Story
buildings
would
tire
tower
over

dwarfing

30-year
history
of
delivering
purpose-driven
projects,
we're
privately
held
and
focused
on
long-term
ownership
and
management
of
our
projects,
which
are
primarily
mixed-use
residential.
AV
Although
we're
still
very
early
in
the
planning
process,
we've
assembled
a
team
that
includes
not
only
architects
but
also
retail
and
landscape
experts
to
have
their
input
on
how
retail,
residential
and
open
space
will
best
work
for
residents
retail
patrons
in
the
community.
Our
entire
team
has
arlington
experience.
AV
I
want
to
very
briefly
highlight
our
firm's
history
in
arlington,
we've
been
been
based
in
boston
for
over
15
years
and
have
completed
several
award-winning
projects
in
clarendon.
Our
most
recent
delivery,
known
as
the
tent
at
clarendon,
was
the
first
leed
platinum
residential
building
in
arlington
and
set
a
new
standard
for
successful
live
work.
Units.
AV
Staff
has
done
an
excellent
job,
orienting
everyone
to
the
site.
I
wanted
to
highlight
why
we
feel
a
mixed-use
residential
zoning.
Category
and
density
makes
sense.
This
location,
the
courthouse
west
block,
is
a
gap
in
the
rrb
corridor.
It
is
a
sea
of
asphalt
that
has
been
there
for
decades
and
could
be
a
mixed-use
project
that
weaves
the
courthouse
and
clarendon
neighborhoods
together.
AV
AV
AV
AV
AV
Attributes
of
this
transit
rich
site
was
that
co
was
the
appropriate
category.
Staff
has
recommended
a
medium
density,
category
of
co,
2.5
and
added
a
height
cap
of
12
stories
versus
the
16
stories
allowed
in
the
co
2.5
zoning
category.
Our
recommendation
is
simply
to
remove
that
height
cap
at
this
time
to
enable
flexibility
in
the
design
during
the
4.1
process
and
achieve
more
housing
in
a
location
that
is
served
by
transportation,
infrastructure,
walk
little
jobs
and
numerous
amenities
staff
has
depicted
potential
massing
schemes
in
this
report.
AV
AV
AV
I
want
to
briefly
share
a
rough
schedule
for
those
who
might
be
wondering
what
comes
next
after
a
glove
study.
There's
much
work
to
be
done
in
preparing
documents
for
4.1
submission
site
plan,
review
committee
meetings
and
eventually,
a
fully
designed
project
to
build
the
engagement
process
that
we
commenced
in
2019
will
continue
and
we
look
forward
to
a
meaningful
and
healthy
dialogue
that
makes
the
project
better.
A
Okay,
well,
if
not,
then
I
believe
that
puts
the
conversation
with
the
board.
Let
me
begin
by
thanking
those
who
came
in
to
give
input
today
and
those
who
provided
input
throughout
on
the
process
for
framing.
I
think
this
has
been
well
noted
by
our
staff.
A
This
is,
of
course,
a
request
to
advertise,
which
is
to
say
the
the
general
boundaries
of
setting
the
general
boundaries
of
what
might
be
submitted
for
future
4.1
to
be
considered
with
any
glock
changes,
as
well
as
what
might
set
the
context
for
more
integrated
consideration
of
the
site
plan.
Land
use,
related
impacts
on
transportation,
et
cetera,
so
no
final
decisions
today,
I
think,
is
a
really
important
note.
A
As
we
begin
this
conversation,
I
think
it
is
fair
to
say
that
the
conversations
or
questions
or
themes,
we've
largely
heard,
have
been
around
the
areas
especially
of
height,
but
I
do
know,
we've
heard
from
a
number
of
public
commenters
today,
with
sort
of
general
concerns
or
considerations
about
well
effectively,
adding
more
people
to
arlington
county.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
opportunity
to
surface
any
questions
we
may
have
for
our
staff
or
others
that
may
have
arisen
during
the
process.
E
Thank
you.
Madam
cheryl
begin
with
a
question
for
staff.
Just
in
the
scoping
of
the
study
document
and
conducting
this
glup
study
did
you
consider
any
potential
new,
if
not
zoning,
categories
or
even
club
designations,
to
maybe
think
about
areas
such
as
these
that
have,
you
know
a
little
bit
of
an
unclear
direction
in
terms
of
reconciling
old
board
policy
with
the
current
way
people
are
able
to
move
around.
This
is
sort
of
looking
at
that
bullseye
context.
Within
a
modern
perspective,.
AL
And
so
our
initial
steps
were,
you
know,
let's
explore
different
forms
and
then,
as
we
collect
feedback
related
to
the
vision
for
the
site
related
to
obviously
building
form
and
height,
what
what
designations
could
could
potentially
be
appropriate
and
help
realize
that
vision.
Z
I
suppose
this
is
related
to
that
question.
The
question
is,
I
was
struck
by
miss
alexander's
comments
with
respect
to
the
process
for
considering
this
special
glop
area
and
the
entire
bullseye
approach,
which
I've
also
heard
discussion
of
rather
than
a
bullseye.
A
more
contemporary
thought
might
be
a
sort
of
a
saddleback
where
you
have.
You
know
greatest
density
directly
near
metros,
but
I
don't
know
if
this
question
is
is
for
you,
mr
murphy,
or
or
whether,
whether
it's
for
our
planning
director,
the
question
is
a
little
bit
about.
Z
Z
Having
lived
in
courthouse,
there's
difference
between
roslyn
and
you
know,
and
you
go
further
up
the
the
corridor,
and
I
think
that
you
know
there.
There
is
gentler
density
at
different
points,
but
did
have
you
thought
about
that
question
of
whether
we
should,
and
how
did
you
think
about
the
question
of
special
glove
here
versus
more
throughout
that
corridor?
Planning.
AW
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
question
anthony
fuscorelli
with
the
planning
division.
So
I
think
one
important
point
to
introduce
in
terms
of
the
background
of
the
special
club
study
and
and
how
they
came
about
and
and
to
get
to
your
question
right.
When
do
we
feel
it's
appropriate
to
have
this
type
of
study
be
conducted
to
consider
the
future
of
a
site
versus?
AW
When
do
we
take
a
undertake,
a
broader
geographic
study
for
a
larger
planning
area,
and
I
think
you
know
going
back
to
the
to
the
late
2000s
and
even
leading
up
to
that
point.
AW
We
saw
a
number
of
instances
where
there
were
certain
sites
in
particular
where,
for
whatever
reason,
the
general
land
use
plan
designation
had
not
the
way
it
had
been
considered
previously
was
perhaps
not
fully
completed
or
circumstances
have
changed,
and
so
this
similar
to
this
site,
you
know
it's
a
service,
commercial,
designation
within
the
heart
of
the
rb
corridor
and
there
have
been
other
sites
in
the
past.
800
900
north
glebe
in
ballston
is
another
good
example
going
back
about
15
years.
AW
So
we
have
a
process
where
applicants
can
ask.
You
know
staff
and
the
county
to
reconsider
the
designation
for
some
of
those,
I
don't
say
forgotten
sites,
but
some
of
those
sites
that
haven't
been
addressed
to
date.
I
think
that
process
is,
is
you
know
why
we're
here
today?
AW
I
think
when
we
look
more
broadly
at
certain
edges
or
certain
areas
that
maybe
haven't
been
planned
more
comprehensively,
that's
when
we
would,
you
know,
be
having
a
conversation,
probably
as
part
of
the
work
program
discussion
with
a
recommendation
to
consider
you
know,
maybe
a
a
near-term
study
for
a
particular
geography.
So
not
sure
if
that
gets
the
heart
of
your
question,
but
some
some
thoughts.
AW
Z
Very
helpful,
I
I
mean
we're
at
a
request
to
advertise,
and
so
I
have
that
sort
of
level
of
of
deference,
and
I
really
appreciate
the
very
careful
consideration
that
seems
to
have
led
to
the
current
recommendation
from
staff
from
the
county
manager
in
light
of
everything.
So
I'll
have
more
questions,
I
think
just
because
I
was
not
here
at
that
time.
Just
to
signal.
I
want
to
understand
the
full
community
benefits
and,
I
suspect,
just
being
transparent.
Z
I
want
to
understand
the
story
of
other
planning
in
clarendon,
which
would
which
I
don't
know
every
piece
of
what
what
eventually
led
to
the
to
the
the
shops
at
clarendon
that
space,
as
opposed
to
there,
was
some
discussion
of
an
alternate
development,
but
at
this
stage
I
I
had
that
def
sort
of
deference,
and
I
do
think
that
the
question
what's
right
for
the
next
46
years
is
is
a
piece
of
this.
For
me
thanks.
A
Well,
put
I
I
think,
one
of
the
things
I
found
sort
of
in
a
similar
vein
kind
of
interesting
to
get
my
head
around
here
is
you
know,
often
when
we've
looked
at
generally
andy's
plans
in
recent
years?
It's
been
certainly
not
the
edges,
as
you
were
indicating,
mr
surely
right,
but
but
areas
that
are
not
really
along
that
that
that
spine,
right
to
the
extent
that
clarendon
boulevard
and
wilson
boulevard,
I
really
think
of-
are
our
main
thoroughfares
to
the
rb
corridor.
A
One
of
the
things
I
think
about
ms
alexander's
comments
is
like
how
precedential
this
special
glub
study
is
I'm
trying
to
think
about
how
to
phrase
this
right
like
so
so
how?
A
How
many
kind
of
unplanned
areas
are
there
along
those
those
two
core
thoroughfares
are
most
of
them,
captured
by
the
boston
sector,
plan,
rosslyn
sector
plan
or
historically
the
clarendon
sector
plan,
or
because
both
the
clarion
and
sector
plan
and
boston
sector
plan
are
at
this
point,
so
old
I
mean
do.
Do
we
have
pretty
significant
swaths
of
you
know
what
we
think
of
as
our
key
metro
corridor,
clarendon
boulevard
and
wilson
boulevard
they're
outside
of
planning
corridors
or
planning
sector
plans.
AW
To
that
to
that
question
I
would
offer
that
the
number
of
sites
within
the
roslin-ballston
corridor
proper
that
are
similar
to
this
particular
site
as
being
a
vested
service
commercial,
designation
along
you
know,
the
wilson
clarendon
couplet
is
pretty
limited.
Okay,
that
that
being
said,
you
know
there
certainly
would
be
the
opportunity
for
an
applicant
to
come
forward
and
request
a
change
to
a
designation
for
a
property
that
they
might
have
interest
in.
AW
But
I
think
in
most
instances
we
would
have
sector
plan
guidance
that
would
be
applicable
and
helpful
to
either
responding
to
a
developer,
reviewing
a
development
application
or
providing
feedback
on
their
their
intentions.
A
That's
really
helpful,
I
think,
for
me,
you
know,
sort
of
as
I've
watched
this
one
evolve.
I've
been
mostly
startled
by
the
fact
that
we've
had
you
know
this
site
that
that
is
outside
of
the
area.
Now
standing
appreciate
mr
burns
comments,
I'm
not
sure
I
would
describe
anything
quite
so
walkable
the
two
metro
stations
as
a
sprawl
area,
so
I
was
a
little
surprised
there
wasn't
already
within
one
of
those
sector
plan
scopes.
Mr
carotona's
questions.
P
Thank
you,
ma'am
chair,
you
just
covered
one
of
the
questions
that
I
had
so
what's
what
what?
What
kind
of
appetite
can
can
be?
You
know
stimulated,
but
you
know
most
most
of
the
quarters
are
actually
planned
and
I
I
have
to
say
I
appreciate
very
much
the
slide,
16
and
17,
because
they
they
we
can
see
how
the
corridor
over
these
46
and
half
a
century
now
has
been
sculpted
over
time.
So
and
this
this
shows
quite
some
trends.
P
I
wanted
to
to
focus
on
a
different
thing
on
the
open
space
and
the
the
the
part
of
that,
so
is
the
advertisement
today.
Making
any
is.
Is
it?
How
specific
is
that?
What
kind
of
open
spaces
will
be?
What
you
know?
What
users
do
we
expect
there?
How
does
it
work
with
biophilic?
You
know,
principles,
etc.
P
AL
Thank
you
for
that
question.
Yes,
so
the
study
document
contains
public
space
recommendations.
AL
One
of
the
recommendations
is
the
provision
of
public
space
along
clarendon
boulevard.
The
recommendation
sets
a
minimum
square
footage
size
for
that.
That
would
be
expected
with
with
any
future
site
plan
application
or
the
study
document
to
be
adopted.
So
it
establishes
that
that
minimum
square
footage,
and
through
the
the
4.1
sprc
process
there
would
be
additional
discussion
about
the
size
that
is
included
in
the
site
plan
application,
ideally
larger
than
that
there
would
also
be
a
separate
park.
Master
planning
process
dedicated
to
to
the
the
public
space.
AL
The
public
space
would
end
up
being
a
privately
owned
public
space,
owned
and
maintained
by
by
the
property
owner
in.
In
terms
of
your
second
question
about
the
size
of
the
building
and
the
potential
effect
on
the
public
space,
that
was
one
of
one
of
the
considerations
related
to
our
building
height
guidance
staff
felt
strongly
that
encouraging
appropriate
height
transitions
down
to
a
public
space,
to
really
frame
it
and
make
it
a
welcome.
AL
Open
place
was
really
important
and
so
that
that
led
to
our
the
the
proposed
maximum
building
height
guidance
of
no
more
than
four
stories
adjacent
to
the
public
space.
To
help
create
that
that
kind
of
open
and
accessible
feel.
Z
Z
I
think
it's
fair
to
say
that
what
was
envisioned
in
the
80s
is
is
different
from
from
now
and
what
I
think
is
reasonable
and
advisable
for
the
next
46
years.
So
I
heard
those
comments
as
well.
Miss
carr
is
a
single
parent.
Certainly
some
of
the
issues
you
mentioned
very
concerned
about
we
do
seek
to
invest
in
a
lot
of
those
areas
and
respect
your
comments
that
you
raised
and
we'll
be
thinking
of
those.
I
think,
mr
wood.
Your
comments
were
very
helpful
with
respect
to
parks
in
particular,
but
also
schools.
Z
I
think
there
are
many
there's
some
who've
said
you
know
there
are
many
great
strengths
of
ballston.
Perhaps
the
number
of
parks
integrated
into
it
is
not
one
of
those
greatest
pieces,
so
we
have
to,
I
think,
be
careful
to
try
to
avoid
that
going
forward,
and
that's
a
note
that
I
think
perhaps,
and
also
school
capacity
is
relevant
as
well.
So
I
mentioned
miss
alexander,
I
would
say
something
with
respect
to
mr
nolan.
Z
I
think
that
the
next
three
months,
two
three
months.
This
is
a
time
when
community
engagement
is
very
very
important,
because
I
believe
that
the
that
it
it
is
a
very
close
question
as
to
16
and
12
stories
even
for
advertisement.
So
the
community
benefits
would
be
very
important,
but
I
still
think
we
have
a
glup
process
that
precedes
the
4.1
that
mr
nolan
mentioned,
and
so
I'm
really
hoping
for
a
lot
of
community
engagement
over
the
coming
months.
Z
E
Be
happy
to
madam
chair,
it
is,
I
moved
at
the
county
board,
adopt
the
resolution
to
authorize
advertisement
which
is
attachment
1
to
board

2022

which
is

E
3
of
that
board
report
of

At
a
time,
concurrent,
with
consideration

E
Speak
to
it
briefly,
so,
as
has
been
said,
this
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
really
frame
the
discussion
that
we
expect
our
planning
commission
will
more
fully
engage
in
and
that
the
board
will
later
engage
in
in
september.
E
So
at
this
time
to
me,
it
seems
most
appropriate
to
ensure
they
were
not
leaving
anything
off
the
table,
but
that
said,
I
feel
it's
important
to
certainly
lay
very
clearly
here
that
the
distinctions
between
12
stories
and
associated
density
and
16
are
quite
significant
and
are
not
costless
and
shouldn't
be
viewed
as
just
simply
a
whim
to
be
taken
up
later.
E
In
my
mind,
12
stories
is
thought
has
been
thoughtfully
suggested
by
staff
to
address
a
myriad
of
concerns
and
in
any
way,
moving
toward
16
should
come
with
not
only
mitigating
any
adverse
impacts,
but
also
providing
substantial
community
benefits.
So
this
is
just
not
simply
a
matter
of
whether
you're,
comfortable,
12
or
comfortable
with
16,
but
really
does
you
know,
does
either
promote
the
goals
that
we
intend
for
this
area
and
just
to
speak
to
this
area.
I
know
we
don't
have
necessarily
universal
agreement,
as
we've
heard
from
our
discussion
today.
E
I
hope
that
we
can
all
agree
that
the
service
commercial,
the
c2
zoning
service,
commercial
designation,
that
exists-
is
inappropriate
for
this
area.
I
hope
that
we
can
all
agree
on
that.
I
mean
I
would
have.
E
I
would
have
lost
a
lot
of
money
if
you
could
have
told
me
that,
within
you
know,
the
wilson
clarendon
box,
that
we
had
an
existing
c2
zone
pro
parcel
this
close
to
metro,
I
would
have
lost
a
lot
of
money,
so
we
know
that
that's
wrong
and
then,
as
you
think,
about
what
would
be
appropriate,
the
name,
the
neighboring
properties
being
medium
office,
apartment
hotel.
It's
not
inconsistent
to
have
this
one
in
that
designation
either.
E
Now
recognizing
within
that,
though,
this
site
has
specific
needs
and
circumstances
or
conditions
that
we
may
want
to
address,
as
it
relates
to
transit
and
proximity
to
transit.
Ms
alexander,
you
you
raised
a
compelling
point.
You
know
we
do
have
overall
policy.
That
has
never
been
repudiated
if
you
will,
but
I
think
that
has
been
kind
of
superseded
by
different
sensibility.
E
We
have
to
think
about
how
we
absorb
that
the
bullseye
concept
that
arlington
is
known
for
is
kind
of
not
necessarily
the
way
a
lot
of
folks
look
at
it
today
for
a
lot
of
different
reasons.
Instead
of
the
right
on
top
of
transit
people,
look
at
a
half
mile
away
from
transit,
for
example,
as
a
way
to
determine
what
is
transit
rich
and
accessible.
E
Now,
whether
or
not
we
should
treat
the
the
outer
edges
of
a
half
mile
radius,
for
example,
very
differently
from
right
on
top,
that's
that's
a
legitimate
real
discussion,
but
we
have
to
certainly
think
about
things
that
are
different
today
than
they
were
30
40
years
ago.
The
connection
of
the
full
streetscape
that
we
have
now
wasn't
existing.
Then,
in
addition
to
access
to
heavy
rail,
we
also
have
access
to
what
I
would
call
premium
bus
service
on
this
corridor,
which
also
is
a
significant
transit
advantage.
E
Of
course,
the
ability
for
people
to
use
micro
mobility
devices
to
move
around
is
also
very
different.
So
as
we
we
think
about
this
particular
site,
I
believe
that
it
is
certainly
worthy
of
of
thinking
about
this.
Within
the
the
context
of
of
not
30
40
years
ago,
when
we
don't
expect
a
lot
of
these
people
to
be
incentivized
to
transit
and
to
active
uses,
they
absolutely
are
at
the
site
without
question.
E
I
think
experience
bears
that
out
and
I
just
do
want
to
speak
a
little
bit
to
something
that
I
look
forward
to
discussing
a
lot
more
over
the
next
couple
of
months.
The
community
concerns
around
safety,
it's
always
very
troubling
when
I
hear
about
people
who
feel
unsafe,
particularly
when
it
relates
their
children
in
their
communities.
E
But
I
also
know
it's
true
that
properly
designed
infill
projects
mix
these
projects
have
the
ability
to
reduce,
not
the
ability
to
it's
proven.
They
reduce
vehicle
miles
traveled,
which
is
a
key
component
of
safety,
and
I
think
it's
also
worth
just
mentioning
that
our
responsibility
to
ensure
a
safe
community
exists,
regardless
of
the
type
of
development
that
we
approve,
and
I
hope
that
people
just
don't
walk
away,
believing
that,
as
you
build
bigger
buildings,
you
are
inherently
making
your
community
unsafe.
A
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
dorsey,
for
making
the
motion
and
a
series
of
very
well
put
arguments
all
note
and,
as
I
seek
to
close
and
then
turn
it
to
my
colleagues,
I
I
don't
think
I
could
do
better
in
terms
of
the
broader
conversation
than
associating
myself
with
where
we
are
headed,
perhaps
versus
where
we
have
been,
and
in
particular
that
the
lessons
learned
over
the
past
couple
of
decades
with
regard
to
being
able
to
significantly
add
to
the
population
of
arlington,
while
significantly
reducing
the
numbers
of
cars
on
the
road
through
extended
transit
options,
which
will
of
course
be
quarter
this
or
any
other
development
proposal
within
the
orange
line
corridor,
as
well
as
our
other
key
transit
areas.
A
We
are
not
taking
it
off
the
table,
as
others
have
said,
but
it
is
certainly
the
the
expectation
now
that
the
advertised
policy
guidance
of
the
board
that
we
think
that
12
stories
is
what
is
likeliest
to
be
appropriate
here
and
is
the
one
that
has
been
studied
most
carefully
with
our
staff,
and
it
is
a
conclusion
I
know
they
didn't
come
too
lately
and
is
therefore
not
one
to
which
we
come
lightly
either
in
terms
of
the
appropriateness
of
this
area.
A
So
I
I
think
it,
mr
garcia,
put
that
so
well,
it's
there
is
it's
not
sort
of
just
an
immaterial
difference
between
heights.
It
really
is
important
to
articulate
the
expectation
really
really
is
around
12
stories.
I
have
no
further
comments.
I'm
going
to
turn
to
mr
carantonis
and
miss
garvey
as
we
wrap
up.
P
Well,
only
very
briefly,
ma'am
cheer.
So,
as
I
was
listening
to
mr
dorse's,
very
very
well
articulated
comments.
It's
not
half
a
mile,
it's
0.2
miles!
This
is
one
fifth
of
a
mile,
and
that
shows
that
and
and
as
a
matter
of
fact,
what
is
what
is
the
amazing
accomplishment
of
the
original?
P
Just
at
the
beginning
of
the
metro
era,
planning
principle
of
the
of
the
of
the
bull's
eyes
is
that
they
they
and
miss
alexander.
Thank
you
for
that.
You
created
the
the
nodal
points
that
created
an
entire
community,
and
you
know
created
this
this,
this
commercial,
vibrancy
and
and
human
connectivity.
P
That
gave
us
the
possibility
to
now
reconnect
to
to
be
able
to
accommodate
more
housing
on
this
corridor
to,
at
the
same
time,
keeping
that
a
safe,
prosperous
community
and
and
still
being
a
very
good
business
proposition
for
a
lot
of
people.
So
I
think
that
this
is.
P
This
is
still
a
a
success
story,
a
very
big
success
story
and
in
that
sense
I
think
that
we
should
be
thinking
today
as
well,
and
I'm
really
aligned
myself
with
those
who
appreciate
staff's,
very,
very
thorough
work
on
understanding,
massing
and
understanding
the
the
trade-offs
on
making
them
very
visible.
I
repeat
that
I
I
particularly
like
slide
16
and
17
because
they
add
a
lot
of
texture
and
in
context
to
what
we
are
talking
about
today
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
conversation
on
on
this
on
this.
P
Q
Thank
you
and
miss
garvey
yeah.
Thank
you.
I
just
appreciated
listening
to
all
the
questions
and
the
discussions
raised
by
the
residents
who
come
and
verse
virtually
and
in
person
and
all
the
questions
from
my
colleagues,
it
just
strikes
me
it's
kind
of
the
ongoing
discussion
about
arlington.
You
know
we
went
back
to
our
history
moving
forward
and
it's
all.
How
can
we
build?
You
know
the
best
community
we
can
with
from
where
what
we've
got
now
and
the
tools
that
we
have.
Q
I
appreciate
having
the
flexibility
from
staff
to
do
a
little
more
discussion
about
things
which
we'll
talk
about,
and
it's
really
all
about
benefits.
You
know
the
trade-offs
that
we've
got
as
we
as
we
move
forward
and
develop
with
height
and
density
and
the
usual
discussions
we
have-
and
I
should
make
for
some
fruitful
conversations
during
the
summer
and
thank
you
I'm
pleased
to
support
the
motion.
A
Thank
you
very
much
unless
there
any
further
comments,
I'll
call
for
a
vote
on
mr
dorsey's
motion,
all
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye
opposed
okay
that
carries
unanimously.
Madam
clerk,
is
there
any
other
business
to
come
before
the
board?
Today
there
is
not
okay
with
that,
then
we
are
recessed
until
3
p.m.
This
upcoming
tuesday.
