A
A
We
will
begin
as
per
custom
with
some
recognitions
and
reports
from
the
board
and
manager.
First,
we
have
a
number
of
recognitions
and
proclamations
this
month
april,
it
appears
is
a
busy
month,
so
in
no
particular
order,
except
for
the
one
that's
been
given
me,
I
would
like
to
begin
with
a
proclamation
recognizing
holocaust
remembrance
day,
which
is
a
day
commemorated
of
course
internationally,
but
particularly
in
our
region,
the
jewish
community
relations
council
organizes
a
number
of
recognitions
throughout
northern
virginia,
as
well
as
some
pretty
meaningful
activities.
A
So
I
will
read
only
part
of
this,
which
is
to
just
note
that,
whereas
the
holocaust
was
the
state
sponsored
systematic
persecution,
an
annihilation
of
european
jews
by
nazi
germany
and
its
collaborators
between
1933
and
1945,
and
while
jews
were
the
primary
target
with
6
million
murdered.
Other
ethnic
and
religious
groups
were
also
victimized
and
pursuant
to
a
1980
act
of
congress,
the
united
states,
holocaust
memorial
council
designate
days
of
remembrance
each
year
to
recall
and
reflect
on
the
crimes
committed
and
endure.
A
Therefore,
it
is
my
honor,
as
chair
of
the
county
board,
to
proclaim
thursday
april
28th
as
holocaust
remembrance
day
and
urge
all
arlington
county
residents
to
rededicate
themselves
to
bear
not
silent
witness
to
anti-semitism
nor
any
injustice
and
to
remain
vigilant
to
the
principles
of
a
just
society,
particularly
meaningful.
I
think,
given
current
events
happening
around
our
globe
to
a
our
next
proclamation
is
one
that
I
believe
we
have
a
number
of
people
in
attendance
for
appreciate
this
opportunity
to
recognize
correctional
employees
week
nationally
and
here
in
arlington
county.
A
So
an
acknowledgement
of
all
that
the
folks
represented
by
the
sheriff
and
her
team
do,
whereas
the
arlington
county
detention
facility
receives
over
3
42
persons
for
equipment
annually
and
manages
an
average
daily
population
of
over
253
inmates,
and
whereas
the
operations
of
the
facility
represent
a
crucial
component
of
the
county's
criminal
justice
system
and
whereas
correctional
personnel
play
a
vital
role
in
protecting
the
right
of
the
public
to
be
safeguarded
from
criminal
activity
while
being
responsible
for
the
safety
and
dignity
of
human
beings
charged
to
their
care
and
whereas
correctional
personnel
provide
a
professional
and
compassionate
service
to
the
community
at
large
and
do
their
work
under
demanding
circumstances
facing
danger
in
their
daily
work
lives.
A
Now,
therefore,
I
is
the
chair
of
the
county
board,
along
with
my
colleagues.
Proclaim,
may
2nd
through
may
8th
as
arlington
county
correctional
employees
week,
and
we
urge
our
citizens
to
join
us
in
recognizing
the
efforts
of
the
men
and
women
who
work
in
the
arlington
county
detention
facility
and
the
sheriff's
office.
So
thank
you
all
so
much.
Thank
you
for
being
here.
A
Okay,
another
month,
particularly
close
to
my
own
heart,
if
I
can
take
that
point
of
personal
privilege
april,
is
also
sexual
assault,
awareness
and
prevention
month,
and
I
am
so
glad
to
be
joined
today.
On
behalf
of
what
I
know
is
many
many
partners
in
arlington
county,
candace
lopez,
who
is
the
current?
The
director
of
project
peace
in
arlington
county
to
share,
receive
a
proclamation.
A
It
is
a
slightly
long
one,
so
I'm
going
to
bring
just
a
high
a
couple
of
highlights
forward
and
then
take
the
opportunity
to
just
call
out
one
facet
of
this
community's
multi-faceted
work
when
it
comes
to
sexual
assault,
awareness
and
prevention.
So
sexual
assault,
awareness
and
prevention
month
calls
attention
to
the
fact
that
sexual
assault
violence
is
widespread
and
impacts
every
person
in
this
community
and
whereas
the
vision
for
arlington
county
is
one
in
which
arlington
is
a
peaceful
and
respectful
community.
A
Peace,
team
work,
collaboratively,
disappoint,
support,
joint
response
policies
to
ensure
consistent,
coordinated
approaches
to
supporting
those
who've
experienced
sexual
assault
and
whereas
any
arlington
resident
regardless
of
age,
gender,
socioeconomic
status,
race,
sexual
orientation,
ability
and
or
immigration
status,
has
access
to
a
comprehensive
array
of
services
from
our
24
7
crisis.
Hotline
and
police
and
medical
assistants
to
ongoing
mental
legal
and
housing
supports.
A
So,
following
my
own
exhortation
to
take
the
opportunity
to
educate
others
about
arlington
and
how
to
reach
out
for
services
and
supports,
I'm
so
glad
courtesy
of
candace
to
provide
my
colleagues
and
our
staff
with
a
couple
of
the
newest
resources
from
the
project.
A
During
a
board
meeting,
there
is
particular
kudos
due
to
candace
her
colleague
ashley
blow,
who
works
as
a
prevention
specialist
in
dhs,
and
especially
our
teen
network
board
and
healthy
relationships,
task
force,
which
has
been
gauged
in
a
lot
of
hands-on
work
with
their
colleagues,
their
classmates,
rather
and
with
teachers,
to
help
mature
that
ensure
that
teachers
throughout
aps,
particularly
at
the
secondary
levels,
are
aware
of
the
resources
for
students
and
are
aware
on
how
to
educate
and
prevent
instances
of
sexual
harassment
and
sexual
assault.
A
So
we
are
really
excited
to
to
release
that
you
can
see
the
healthy
relationships
task
force
on
display
there.
I
believe
those
really
fabulous
consent
is
hot.
T-Shirts
are
still
available
for
sale
online.
So,
if
you
go
probably
to
the
project
piece
website,
you
you
too
can
match
our
awesome,
healthy
relationships,
task
force
and
just
want
to
take
the
opportunity
candace.
Thank
you
so
much.
A
Okay,
all
right,
I'm
gonna
get
my
steps
in
doing
these
proclamations
today,
all
right,
so
we
have
just
two
more
to
go
again
april
busy
month.
So
we
are
also
observing
and
acknowledging
emergency
preparedness
month
and
specifically
recognizing
our
public
safety,
telecommunications
staff.
So,
whereas
april
2022
is
arlington
preparedness
month,
as
declared
by
the
department
of
public
safety,
communications
and
emergency
management,
and
whereas
arlington
preparedness
month
seeks
to
increase
public
awareness
about
the
importance
of
preparing
for
emergencies,
encouraging
individuals
to
be
better
prepared,
and
preparedness
of
course
goes
below
beyond.
A
Fire
alarms,
dead
belt
locks
and
extra
food,
whereas
the
department
of
public
safety,
communications
and
emergency
management
and
the
emergency
preparedness
advisory.
Commission
epac
encourage
arlington
marines
to
prepare
for
emergencies
in
their
homes,
as
well
as
their
businesses
and
schools,
and
whereas
arlington
county
encourages
residents
to
be
informed
about
different
threats.
Make
an
emergency
supply
kit,
make
a
family
emergency
communications
plan,
sign
up
for
free
training,
opportunities
and
alerts
and
get
involved
in
protecting
our
community,
because
preparedness
is
everyone's
responsibility.
A
A
A
And
whereas
the
john
m
langston
citizens
association,
has
long
encouraged
the
county
government
to
address
issues
in
the
community,
providing
municipal,
water
and
sewer
systems
to
our
community,
giving
equal
pay
to
our
fire
station.
Eight
firefighters
who
protected
the
community
from
fires
and
advocating
advocating
for
community
development
from
our
neighborhood
and
whereas
the
john
m
langston
citizen
association,
supports
equal
rights
for
all
virginians
and
has
been
an
important
contributor
in
making
arlington
a
diverse,
inclusive
and
more
equitable
community,
and
this
year
marks
the
85th
anniversary
of
the
john
m
langston
citizens
association.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
So
much
and
again
there
are
a
variety
of
activities.
I
know
that
the
john
m
links
and
citizens
association
will
be
hosting.
We
look
forward
to
them
the
weekend
of
may
13th,
okay,
because
I
have
taken
up
so
much
time
already.
I
have
no
further
chairs
report.
I
am
going
to
move
right
into
appointments.
A
Okay,
so
I
colleagues
I'm
going
to
move
the
following
appointments
to
the
citizens
advisory
commission
on
housing.
I
move
that
we
appoint
eric
lee
for
a
term
ending
april
30th
of
2026.
and
did
the
commission
for
the
arts
appoint
joshua
ellis
susan
mannis
in
newtopia
nuecoma
for
a
term
ending
all
for
terms
ending
april
30th
of
2025.
A
D
A
Any
opposed,
okay
that
carries
unanimously
congratulations
to
our
new
and
returning
commissioners.
We
appreciate
your
service
before
we
move
on
from
commissions.
I
know
that
our
our
liaison
to
the
commission
on
aging
has
a
couple
of
bylaw
updates
from
the
commission
to
bring
forward
to
us.
So,
ms
garvey,
I
turn
it
to
you.
C
Thank
you
so
much,
madam
chair
and
colleagues
of
have
seen
this
by
email
and
there
is
a
hard
copy
at
your
desks.
You
know
about
every
seven
to
eight.
I've
actually
got
the
history
going
back
to
1983.,
it's
back
every
seven
to
eight
or
nine
years.
These
bylaws
are
updated,
which
makes
sense,
and
most
of
it
is
you
know,
kind
of
just
bringing
things
up
to
with
foia
and
and
all
those
kinds
of
things.
C
There
also
is
a
mention
of
diversity
and
trying
to
get
diversity
on
the
commission
which
we're
working
for
everywhere.
So
there's
nothing
particularly
controversial
here.
So
if
it's
all
right,
I'm
happy
to
entertain
questions
which
I
may
or
may
not
be
able
to
answer,
but
I
would
like
to
move
make
a
motion.
If
I
might,
I
move
to
adopt
the
proposed
amendments
to
the
commission
on
aging
bylaws
as
presented.
C
And
I
just
want
to
thank
the
commission
on
aging
they're,
doing
great
work.
I've
I've
been
having
fun
interviewing
the
new
people
coming
on,
there's
just
a
lot
of
exciting
work
to
be
going
here,
we're
all
aging
clearly-
and
it's
just
you
know
it's
nice
to
have
our
folks
doing
these
commissions.
I
think,
makes
a
big
difference
for
us
here
in
arlington
and
we
just
keep
these
orders
going
and
need
to
re-up
these
and
I'm
happy
to
have
everybody
supported.
I
hope
absolutely.
C
A
Thank
you
so
much
okay.
Unless
there
is
any
further
discussion
that
motion
is
on
the
table,
all
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye,.
D
A
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
just
have
one
slide.
We
have
arrived
at
a
an
important
sort
of
moment
in
that
we
have.
The
urban
institute
has
completed
its
benchmark
analysis
and
I
have
had
a
chance
to
participate
in
in
sort
of
summary
discussions.
Look
through
the
report.
F
There
are
some
important
pieces
to
it,
and
now
we
move
into
a
stage
where
we
consolidate
those
insights
and
absorb
it,
and
then
review
the
findings
and
recommendations
to
see
what
investments
or
what
we
could
do
next
to
act
on
this
food
food
insecurity
study,
and
so
there
are
a
couple
of
neighborhoods
in
pentagon,
city
and
crystal
city.
That
were
a
touch
surprising
to
me
that
there
was
challenges
with
food
there.
F
But
what
I
thought
I'd
do
is
just
sort
of
mention
that
we
finished
this
at
some
point,
a
sis
I
might
recommend
a
succinct
presentation
of
the
study,
but
that's
not
for
today.
I
just
wanted
to
share
that.
We
finished
this
the
report's
available
for
your
ease,
I'll
shoot
it
around
via
email
when
you
have
copious
extra
time
time
to
to
to
read
or
even
to
look
at
the
executive
summary,
but
it
is
very
helpful
report
and
it's
an
import
important
first
step.
A
Thank
you,
mr
defranti.
I
look
forward
to
reading
that.
As
you
noted,
it
is
interesting.
We
think
we
sort
of
know
where
the
pockets
of
need
or
risk
are
in
our
community,
and
so
it's
always
really
enlightening
to
look
at
through
a
different
index.
All
right.
Thank
you
again
for
that
really
important
work
that
is
underway.
We
move
now
into
regional
reports
and
I
believe
mr
karentonis
has
an
update
for
us
about
the
clean
air
partner
posters
contest.
Oh.
G
Yes,
this
is
this
is
on
the
lighter,
and
you
know
more
or
cheerful
note
here.
We,
we
just
celebrated
the
earth
earth
week
and
earth
day
on
on
friday,
so
I
I
just
wanted
to
use.
I
don't
know
if
mr
mason
has
the
the
slides,
because
it's
a
visual
thing,
a
poster
is
a
visual
thing.
G
Well,
I
thought
I
I
sent
that
that's
okay,
I
just
I'm
I'm
going
to
just
report.
There
is
a
organization
because
we
are
in
may
may
2nd
to
may
6th
is
air
quality
week,
so
the
organization
that
does
the
most
outreach
on
and
and
most
education
on,
air
quality
at
the
beginning
of
the
awesome
season
is
cleaner
partners.
This
is
a
non-profit
that
is
operating
in
all
in
the
entire
metropolitan
region,
including
baltimore,
I
believe
so.
G
We
are
participating
in
that
and
they
also
have
a
an
educational
pro
program,
something
that
works
in
schools.
They
they
actually
support
a
school
curriculum
and
every
year
they
do
a
poster
contest
among
middle
school
students,
and
this
year
the
winner
is
julia
hernandez
coca,
a
sixth
grader
from
our
williamsburg
middle
school.
G
G
I
hope
that
through
social
media
can
we
can
we
can
divulge
and
support
her
design.
She
is
really
touching
on
the
important
issues
that
this
you
know,
earth
earth,
day
and
earth
day
week.
Earth
week
has
touched
upon,
there
is
a
lot
of
there's
a.
E
G
G
Sure
it
is
more
another
one
another
one.
This
is
the
the
poster,
and
if
you
see
that
this
is
actually
starts
with
a
you
know,
a
mother
earth
as
a
flower
that
is
in
literally
in
flames,
you
slide
so
and
and
everything
that
a
sixth
grader
in
arlington
perceives
as
a
real
problem
like,
for
example,
emissions
from
cars,
the
forest
fires,
the
you
know,
the
the
loss
of
of
trees,
the
use
of
of
aerosols,
still
chemical
aerosols,
even
carbon
europe,.
G
Pretty
impressed
by
how
much
how
many
topics
julia
has
covered
in
that,
and
that
is
the
problem
so
to
say,
and
she
then
expressed
the
hope
and
the
way
forward
with
the
second
element
in
her
design,
which
includes
all
the
good
things
from
this
from
from
recycling
to
electrification
of
transportation.
I
was
extremely
pleased
to
see
the
the
the
the
vegetarian
or
the
kind
they
love
that
changing
diet.
G
Of
course,
we
you,
you
see
renewable
energy
production,
there's
a
planting
in
three
public
transit
is
part
of
this
and
and
of
course,
the
the
preservation
of
natural
environment
in
form
of
natural
forest,
etc.
So
I
was
really
very
impressed
by
what
julia
did
and
I
hope
to
be
able
to
to
meet
her
and
to
hear
from
her
how
she
came
to
this.
H
G
G
There
are
many
many
details
in
her
in
her
representation
of
what
she
learned
through
cleaner
partners
that
have
really
impressed
me.
I
thought
this
was
really
great.
A
I
I
Besides
the
fact
that
mr
d
ferrante
was
not
with
us
for
a
few
days
and
the
fact
that
my
beloved
red
sox
are
dealing
with
some
issues
with
their
a
lot
of
their
catching
staff
on
the
covet
19
list
is
that
arlington
county's
community
level
is
now
medium
according
to
the
centers
for
disease
control.
And
so
let
me
talk
a
little
bit
about
about
that.
I
Arlington
has
been
in
this
medium
category
for
a
couple
of
weeks
now
and
we've
now
just
been
recently
joined
by
the
district
of
columbia,
alexandria
and
manassas
park
city
and
the
cdc's
community
levels
are
comprised
of
three
elements
that
go
into
this
total
number
of
new
reported
cases,
hospital
beds
being
used
by
covid19
patients
and
then
also
covid19
hospital
admissions.
I
So
fortunately,
there
has
not
been
a
significant
rise
in
the
two
hospital
measures.
However,
the
case
rate
per
100
000
people
is
over
200,
which
pushes
arlington
into
the
medium
category.
Our
public
health
division
director
led
by
a
public
health
division
led
by
dr
ruben
varghese.
Our
public
health
director
has
determined
this
increases
due
to
ongoing
sustained
transmission
and
the
processing
of
delayed
lab
reports
from
the
omicron
search.
I
So
what
does
a
medium
level
mean
for
the
community
if
you
are
at
high
risk
for
severe
illness?
Talk
to
your
health
care
provider
about
whether
you
need
to
wear
a
mask
and
take
other
precautions
stay
up
to
date
on
your
covet?
19
vaccines
get
tested.
If
you
have
symptoms,
as
you
might
expect,
we're
also
seeing
a
rise
in
our
positivity
rate
arlington's
seven
day,
positivity
rate
last
week
was
about
12
percent
the
highest
since
january.
I
I
So,
thanks
to
that
really
in
our
high
levels
of
immunity,
the
risk
of
significant
disease
and
hospitalization
and
death
has
really
been
greatly
reduced
and
at
the
same
time
we
know
that
for
our
older
citizens
and
those
who
are
immunocompromised
and
people
with
disabilities
and
higher
risk
for
serious
illness,
there
are
some
real
challenges.
I
myself
went
and
got
my
second
booster
last
week,
and
I
encourage
everybody
who
fits
into
the
category
of
being
over
the
age
of
50
or
has
those
conditions
I
just
mentioned
to.
I
Please
do
it
in
arlington
we
have
88
of
the
people.
Five
and
older
have
received
at
least
one
dose
and
close
to.
Eighty
percent
are
fully
vaccinated
and
I
wanna
thank
our
public
health
division,
something
that
I
never
thought
I
would
be
saying.
We
just
administered
our
two
hundred
thousandth
coven
19
vaccine
last
week.
I
I
I
Our
emergency
management
team
recently
distributed
a
77
000
rapid
at-home
test
kits
they
were
distributed
in
the
weeks
right
before
spring
break
through
arlington
schools
and
tests
were
also
distributed
at
the
metro
stations
in
the
county
parks,
libraries
and
through
our
social
safety
net
partners,
with
a
focus
on
those
who
are
less
likely
to
have
access
to
other
testing
resources,
not
sounding
a
little
bit
like
mr
miyagi,
but
mask
on
mask
off.
In
case
you
have
been
paying
haven't,
been
paying
attention
in
the
last
week.
I
The
cdc
order
that
required
masks
on
public
transportation
is
no
longer,
in
effect
by
a
ruling
of
a
federal
judge
so
quickly,
following
that
ruling,
many
places
shifted
to
a
masked
optional
policy,
including
metro,
uber
and
lyft,
and
the
airlines
and
on
our
art
buses.
Masks
are
now
strongly
encouraged,
but
not
required.
I
The
justice
department
is
officially
appealing
that
ruling
and
we
await
the
outcome
of
that.
In
the
meantime,
people
need
to
use
common
sense
and
do
what's
appropriate
for
them.
We'll
continue
to
monitor
our
latest
guide
for
the
latest
guidance,
and
you
know,
I
think
that
for
a
lot
of
people,
I've
heard
them
say
yeah,
I'm
just
we're
just
done
with
this.
We're
done,
but
actually
please,
please
exercise
your
personal
responsibility
and
look
out
for
other
people
wear
a
mask
if
appropriate
and
take
care
of
your
fellow
family
members
and
your
friends
and
our
citizens.
I
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair
yeah,
mr
manager.
Thank
you
for
that.
That
was
an
important
update
to
provide
to
the
community,
and
you
know
many
may
be
done
with
covid,
but
clearly
covet
is
not
yet
done
with
us.
H
So
I
guess
the
trying
to
make
sure
I
form
a
question
and
don't
have
it
evolve
into
a
commentary,
but,
as
you
talked
about
the
molecular
tests
that
are
available
courthouse,
why
is
it
that
those
are
only
available
at
one
particular
curative
location
or
will
it
be
coming
to
others.
I
They
we
have
it.
My
understanding
is.
We
also
had
it
available
also
available
at
sequoia,
so
where,
as
we
get
the
systems
on
board,
our
goal
is
to
get
it
to
all
the
sites.
It's
just
a
matter
of
getting
the
equipment
got.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
so
mike's.
My
experience
a
week
and
a
half
ago,
or
two
weeks
ago,
two
plus
weeks
ago,
was
sort
of
48
hours
of
an
adjusted
flu
that
had
symptoms
that
weren't
overwhelming
but
were
different
from
what
I'd
had
before
and
then
quickly.
I
felt
better
and
then
I
was
just
every
morning
hoping
that
I
would
test
negative
and
then
tested
negative
three
times
in
one
day
and
then
could
rejoin
everyone.
I
I
think
this
is
the
case.
F
It
feels
like
that
was
the
second
strain
of
omicron,
at
least
from
what
I've
read
and
was
described,
and
you
know
we
eagerly
look
for
the
hospitalization
numbers,
but
you
know
I
I
think,
for
months
and
months
you
met
every
morning
with
dr
varghese,
but
I
still
feel
like
if
one
of
the
additional
strains
or,
if
there's
a
strain
that
starts
to
lead
to
hospitalizations,
I
feel
like
it's
just-
will
be
important
to
have
that
seamless
communication
that
you
guys
have
had
so
that
we
know
as
early
as
possible
that
we
have
a
strain
that
is
leading
to
more
than
just
a
48-hour
piece
that
I
had.
F
And
I
don't
know
if
you
have.
I
don't
want
you
know
it's
your
your
guys
to
work
on
the
mechanics
of
all
that.
But
I'm
confident
I
feel
like
it
might
be
worth
just
sharing
briefly,
if
you're
able
sort
of
the
system
of
communication
and
how
dr
varghese
and
you
touch
base
and
what
would
happen
if
you
started
to
hear
anecdotes
and
and
thought
that
there
were
policy
issues
that
you
might
need
to
bring
to
the
board
or
or
to
the
community.
I
So
I
I
continue
to
be
in
communication
with
dr
varghese
and
also
with
dr
miller,
and
we
are
in
constant
communication.
You
are
correct
that
the
most
recent
set
of
cases
are
based
on
the
sub-variant
of
omicron.
I
think
that
it's
about
three-quarters
of
the
current
cases
are
that
sub-variant
and
we
monitor
the
hospitalization
numbers.
We
get
a
weekly
written
update
from
all
the
area,
health
directors
and
on
an
as
needed
basis.
I've
had
conversations
with
reuben
in
the
past
week
a
few
times
as
far
as
right.
I
We
still
have
the
we're
still
in
the
state
of
emergency
here
in
the
county,
it's
a
little
bit
concerning
that
the
number
of
cases
have
ticked
up,
but
I
think
that
I
even
saw
a
report
today
that
saying,
as
many
as
60
of
all
the
residents
of
the
country
may
have
had
covet
at
one
point,
and
that
is
a
pretty
shocking
statistic.
But
at
the
same
time
I
think
that
also
speaks
to
a
little
bit
about
how
how
the
variants
are
not
having
as
much
of
an
effect
on
hospitalization.
I
So
that
doesn't
mean
people
won't
get
sick
and
don't
need
to
pay
attention.
I'm
getting
way
out
of
my
depth
here.
I
do
not
have
a
master's
in
public
health.
So
if
there's
anything
like
that,
I
will
be
to
you
soonest
and
also
to
the
community,
we're
still
sending
out
regular
updates,
and
we
know
how
to
ring
the
alarm
bell.
Even
though
people
may
not
be
listening
as
much
great.
F
I
was
happy
to
have
had
the
booster
didn't,
enjoy
those
48
hours
and
thought
I
was
so
careful,
but
that
second
strain
seems
even
more
transmissible,
at
least
if,
as
I
tried
to
recreate
how
I
might
have
gotten
it,
but
thanks
for
being
willing
to
ring
the
alarm
bell
if
needed
amidst
this
long
pandemic,
I
understand
the
the
balance
there.
Thank
you.
A
Thanks
so
much
appreciate
that,
are
there
other
questions
or
thoughts?
Well,
the
the
achievement
of
the
20
000th,
shot
or
200.
Thousands
not
is
particularly
remarkable,
and
I
think,
a
good
opportunity
to
just
reflect
that.
This
has
been
a
long
and
ongoing
journey
in
this
community's
effort
to
combat
covet
and
its
spread.
I
So
I'm
going
to
move
on
to
what
was
going
to
be
my
last
item
I'll
we'll.
Do
it
right
now,
but
you
see
if
you
look
out
in
the
audience.
Madam
chair,
you
see
a
number
of
very
eager
communicators
and
public
engagers,
various
cape
teams
and
cape
knockoffs
throughout
the
departments.
So
what
I
wanted
to
do
is
provide
a
communications,
an
engagement
update
for
you.
You
know
when
I
became
county
manager.
One
of
my
top
priorities
was
to
talk
about
enhancing
our
efforts
and
engagement
and
communications,
and
this
was
right.
I
After
the
community
facility
study
group
said
you
know
we
needed.
We
had
a
number
of
challenges
on
how
we
engaged
the
public
and
we
were
trying
to
come
up
with
consistent
approaches
on
similar
types
of
plans
and
projects,
and
we
wanted
to
come
up
with
processes
that
were
consistent
for
decision
makers
and
we
knew
that
we
had
some
real
challenges
in
getting
input
from
a
lot
of
parts
of
our
community
and
it's
hard
to
believe.
I
But
we
are
just
celebrated
the
fourth
anniversary
of
our
six-day
six-step
guide
for
public
engagement
and
since
then,
we've
learned
a
lot
about
communicating
and
public
engagement,
especially
over
the
last
two
years
with
covid,
and
I
will
be
the
first
to
admit.
I
admitted
it
here.
We
don't
always
get
it
right,
but
we've
come
a
long
way
in
weaving,
not
just
the
old
style,
corporate
communications,
but
true
engagement
into
our
efforts
as
we
develop
and
implement
policies
and
as
we're
taking
a
breath.
I
At
this
point,
I
thought
it
was
a
good
opportunity
to
have
an
update
and
we
have
with
us.
Briana
helfer
is
assistant
county
manager
for
communications
and
public
engagement,
jerry
solomon,
the
director
of
public
engagement
and
jessica
baxter,
the
director
of
strategic
communications
and
I'm
sure,
they'll,
give
a
shout
out
to
all
the
people
in
the
back
of
the
room
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
dr
helfer
bryna.
B
Thanks
yeah
before
we
get
started,
I
just
really
do
want
to
thank
the
entire
cape
team
across
government
we
have
from
four
years
ago,
and
jerry
am
I
just
advancing
that
you
know
we
started
as
mark
mentioned,
you
know.
The
community
facility
study
called
for
a
new
approach.
B
We
have
been
able
to
to
do
that
in
a
way
that
we've
never
been
able
to
do
it
before
and
and
and
so
we
just
want
to
refresh
everyone
today,
a
little
bit
about
the
journey
and
about
the
guide.
So
we
started
with
the
community
and
the
internal
community
and
our
external
community
back
in
2016,
and
out
of
that,
we
set
some
values
for
public
engagement,
about
inclusion,
about
early
and
timely
communication
about
clear,
accessible
language.
B
Think
back
five
years
ago,
we
were
doing
things
differently
for
similar
kinds
of
projects
and
similar
types
of
plans.
Now
we
have
a
guide,
and
while
we
develop
this
guide
for
capital
projects,
we've
seen
it
apply
to
planning
and
to
policy
making
into
programs
so
clearly
defining
the
project,
identifying
stakeholders
determining
our
engagement,
creating
robust
engagement
strategies
and
communication
strategies,
analysis
and
close
out
and
again
because
we
wanted
to
refresh
not
only
the
board
but
our
community
internally
and
externally.
I'm
just
gonna
walk
through
the
steps
really
briefly
clearly
defining
the
project.
B
B
What's
the
purpose
of
the
engagement
identifying
our
stakeholders
and
jerry's
going
to
expand
a
lot
on
this,
because
I
think
we
have
clearly
learned
so
much
about
working
with
trusted
partners
and
doing
things
differently,
but
one
of
the
things
that
we
still
have
to
work
on
is
getting
those
folks
that
are
highly
impacted,
but
have
really
low
awareness
to
high
awareness
and
high
impact.
But
we
spend
a
lot
of
energy
on
people
with
low
awareness.
B
I
mean
high
awareness
and
low
impact
and
so
really
being
intentional
and
jerry
will
talk
to
that
in
a
little
bit.
So
we
as
a
government
had
already
kind
of
adopted
the
international
association
of
public
participation
framework,
and
so
we
built
on
that
communicate,
consult,
involve
and
collaborate,
and
so
just
to
refresh
the
guide
really
starts
to
help
us
answer
the
questions.
What
iap2
the
international
association
of
public
participation
doesn't
do
is
tell
you
when
and
where
to
apply
those
steps.
B
So
this
allows
us
to
really
ask
the
questions
about
what
is
the
change,
the
more
intensity
of
the
project
or
the
policy,
the
higher
level
of
engagement,
if
that
makes
sense.
So
this
is
an
illustrative
list,
but
what
I
really
want
to
point
out
in
this-
maybe
I
can
just
use
my
mouse-
is
that
you
see
that
really
at
the
collaborative
level,
it's
much
there's
fewer
projects
at
the
collaborative.
B
We
do
thousands
of
projects
right,
and
so
we
might
be
communicating
if
we're
paving
and
putting
things
back
in
the
same
way,
but
where
we're
fundamentally
changing
things,
our
level
of
engagement
intensifies,
and
so
this
is
an
illustrator
list
of
examples,
and
the
other
thing
that
we've
really
taken
great
care
is
to
build
the
capacity
across
every
department
to
understand
how
to
use
and
utilize
the
tools
both
virtually
and
in
person
and
align
them
with
the
level
of
engagement.
B
So
we're
not
showing
up
to
doing
charettes
if
we're
just
painting
the
bench
right
and
if
we're
painting
the
bench
or
if
we're
changing
the
road
and
configuration
we're
not
just
showing
up
and
telling
people
of
the
roadway.
So
we're
really
aligning
the
tools
and
strategies
with
the
level
of
engagement
and
training,
all
of
us
to
use
the
right
tools
and
to
bring
neutrality
right
so
that
we're
using
neutral
facilitators.
B
We're
really
looking
at
naming
and
framing
asking
the
right
questions.
Do
we
get
it
right
all
the
time?
No,
but
we're
getting
it
right
more
often,
and
we
really
appreciate
the
community
feedback
that
we
get
both
when
people
are
uber
engaged
like
on
saturday
with
the
pen
place
and
that
went
so
well
and
people
coming
to
talk
about
the
process
to
projects
where
we
need
to
realign
and
maybe
step
back
and
revisit
and
with
that
coming
out
of
covid.
B
B
But
what
we
learned
was
we
were
able
to
shift
from
what
we
would
typically
do
traditionally
in
person
to
virtually
virtual
walking
tours
for
site
visits
right.
We
would
have
never
imagined
that
hybrid
public
comment
that
was
on
our
dream
list.
Four
years
ago,
kovalev
has
allowed
us
to
learn
to
do
that
coming
out
of
covid.
B
We
think
we
will
be
able
to
do
some
in-person
things
we'll
do
some
continue
to
use
our
virtual
platforms,
because
the
greatest
thing
has
been
like
people
participating
while
they're
watching
their
kids
softball
game
and
that
hybrid
model,
where
we
come
together
with
both.
So
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
over
to
jessica
to
talk
about
some
of
our
communication
strategies.
Thanks.
J
Thank
you,
bryna,
and
I
have
the
pleasure
of
talking
about
my
favorite
topic
communications
as
you've
heard
and
we'll
hear
throughout
this
presentation
is
the
weaving
of
communication
and
engagement,
essential
it's
essential,
because
communication
is
that
common
thread
throughout
a
public
engagement
process.
We
also
know
that,
if
there's
a
breakdown
in
a
process,
any
communication
that
we
try
to
do
will
likely
fail.
So
continuing
on
with
that
is
meeting
people
where
they
are
so
we
offer
a
multi-faceted
approach
in
our
communications
and
pairing
tools
so
that
we
can
reach
broad
cross-sections
of
the
population.
J
So
digital
tools
work
immensely.
Well,
we
have
an
engaged
arlington
web
page.
We
have
inside
arlington
that
reaches
over
150
000
people.
We
have
multiple
subscribers
on
our
list
serves.
However,
there
is
a
big
disparity
in
that
not
everybody
in
our
community
has
access
to
the
internet
or
a
mobile
device.
So
how
do
we
get
to
these
people?
We
saw
it
very
much
during
the
covid
pandemic.
This
disparity
where
we
had
to
really
think
strategically
on
the
tools
that
we
were
using
to
get
to
diverse
cross-sections
of
our
community.
So
what
did
we
do?
J
We
reached
out
to
community
partners
trusted
organizations.
We
we
did
a
lot
of
flyering
that
could
be
easily
shared
to
businesses,
community
organizations,
places
of
worship.
You
likely
saw
those
yard
signs
in
the
medians
and
the
variable
message
board
signs,
traffic
signs,
sharing
information
about
testing
and
vaccination
efforts,
and
that's
a
practice.
We've
continued
for
some
of
our
major
county
efforts.
J
You
also
saw
that
we
likely
did
a
lot
more
direct
mailers
like
letters
and
postcards,
and
all
of
this
I
want
to
note
that
was
it
was
an
emphasis
on
translating
the
materials
as
well.
J
J
So
during
certain
when
we're
when
we're
aligning
them
to
certain
periods
in
the
life
cycle,
there
might
be
higher
levels
of
engagement
or
lower
levels
of
engagement
and
the
reason
why
we
do
this
is
because
we
know
that
not
many
of
our
residents
follow
a
process
from
start
to
finish.
J
It's
a
way
to
simplify
complex
information
coming
from
the
county
and
being
able
to
translate
it
to
the
common
layman's
terms
for
peop,
for
people
to
easily
understand
the
information
we're
trying
to
convey.
So
here
are
a
few
examples.
The
first
one
is
the
barcroft
acquisition
and
it
really
just
breaks
down
the
deal
for
people
to
understand.
You
know
the
partnership
and
and
where
you
know
the
money
is
being
invested
and
what
it
means
for
affordable
housing
in
the
middle
you'll
see
the
affordable
housing
infographic.
J
We
took
a
900
page
budget
document
and
created
six
infographics.
We
distilled
that
information
and
made
it
easily
readable,
highlighted
the
funding
figures.
The
programs
were
being
invested
and
so
taxpayers
can
see
where
their
money
is
going
to
and
where
we're
investing
and
then
on
the
right.
This
is
something
I
pulled
from
my
days
in
des.
J
J
These
dots
go
to
project
pages,
so
you
can
learn
more
information.
If
there's
active
engagements,
it
will
share
that
as
well,
and
the
ural
url
is
on
the
bottom
of
that
and
then
on.
The
right
is
the
arlington
va
website.
Last
fall.
We
switched
content
management
systems
with
a
focus
to
put
customer
first,
so
on
our
home
page,
you
will
see
that
a
customer
or
resident
can
easily
go
and
pay
their
bill
report.
A
problem
request
a
permit
and
then
link
to
key
services
that
we
used.
J
Google
analytics
for
so
these
are
the
most
highly
trafficked
web
pages
and
services.
So
if
you,
if
you
see
up
there,
you
have
parks
and
recreation,
that's
where
it
will
take
you
to
the
seasonal
registration
programs
and
we
have
recycling
and
trash,
as
well
as
an
example,
and
then
you
can
drill
down
and
explore
county
projects,
programs
and
more
so
with
that.
K
K
A
lot
of
that
is
done
with
the
guidance
of
the
racial
equity
lens
through
the
help
of
our
chief
race
and
equity
officer,
samia
byrd.
We
are
applying
the
lens
that
you
see
on
the
screen
right
now
to
better
recognize
who
benefits
who's
burdened
who's
missing.
How
do
we
know
and
what
do
or
did
we
do
about
it
in
order
to
inform
our
processes
and
better
connect
with
folks
who
might
be
missing
from
the
conversation?
K
We
also
use
the
data
in
order
to
ground
our
process,
a
big
shout
out
to
elizabeth
hardy
who's
on
this
call,
who
is
a
principal
demographer
demographer
in
cphd,
and
helped
build
both
the
race
and
ethnicity,
dashboard
and
the
census
tract
dashboard,
which
helps
us
get
a
better
idea
of
the
community.
We
serve
better
understanding,
education
levels,
housing
types
and
more
so
that
we
can
better
strategize
around
our
process
and
then,
of
course,
recognizing
gaps
in
participation.
K
So
we've
been
incorporating
more
language
accessibility
into
our
work,
making
sure
that
we
have
translated
signage
in
frequently
visited
areas
using
the
data
dashboard
to
identify
areas
that
speak
those
languages,
so
that
we
can
be
strategic
about
where
we
put
that
signage,
making
sure
that
we
have
interpreters
at
meetings
or
pop-up
engagements
so
that
people
can
participate
in
their
native
language.
Continuing
most
importantly,
continuing
conversations
with
some
of
our
trusted
partners
who
come
from
those
communities
and
can
help
us
better
understand
where
to
reach
people
most
effectively
and
how.
K
Another
part
of
expanding
our
outreach
is
diversifying
the
ways
in
which
we
approach
our
community
members.
We
have
found
that
not
everything
happens
online,
especially
in
those
different
languages,
but
we
have
found
a
lot
more
success
when
we
meet
people
face
to
face
where
they
are
so
incorporating
pop-up
engagements
at
food
distributions
or
multi-family
buildings,
grocery
stores
and
special
events
has
allowed
us
to
talk
to
people
face
to
face
and
make
these
connections
also
gathering
feedback
in
real
time.
K
And
then
we
we
know
that
one
of
our
gaps
is
in
reaching
people
who
live
in
multi-family
buildings.
With
the
help
of
elizabeth
hardy.
Again
we
have
been
able
to
create
a
resource
that
I
think
is
so
exciting
and
going
to
be
beneficial
to
us
at
large.
It
is
the
multi-family
complex
directory
and
it
is
a
list
of
all
of
the
multi-family
buildings.
We
have
record
of
right
now
and
contact
information
that
allows
us
to
filter
by
civic
association,
boundaries,
zip
codes,
whether
it's
an
apartment
or
condo
or
more.
K
So
I
would
implore
all
of
you
to
check
it
out.
It's
actually
live
right
now
on
the
county's
website.
If
you
search
organizations,
it's
called
the
multi-family
complex
directory
and
then
of
course,
none
of
these
resources
could
have
been
built
without
the
information
that
we've
gathered
or
the
lessons
learned
from
some
of
our
most
significant
work
over
the
past
four
years.
K
We
know
that
our
most
valuable
resource
has
been
the
trusted
partners
who
help
us
better
understand
the
community
we
serve.
So
we've
been
tapping
into
these
networks
like
limited
english
speakers,
non-profits,
faith-based
leaders,
multi-family
buildings,
of
course,
and
our
civic
associations,
along
with
condo
associations
and
other
community
leaders.
K
B
Thanks
jerry
thanks
jessica
and
thanks
for
taking
the
time
to
just
pause
and
take
a
break
and
celebrate
the
progress
and
recognize
that
we're
not
done.
You
know
in
all
of
this,
whether
we're
talking
about
engagement,
practice
and
I
and
I
talk
to
engage
in
practice
because
it
is
a
practice
and
there's
not
a
clear
path
to
that
practice.
B
We
all
come
from
different
disciplines
and
we're
all
learning
and
we've
learned
from
all
of
you
and
hopefully
you
know-
you've
learned
some
things
along
with
us,
but
we
have
continuously
looking
at
designing
for
successful
engagement
to
aligning
those
tools
and
practice
into
building
our
internal
capacity
to
expanding
our
outreach
and
jerry
talked
beautifully
to
that.
So
I'm
not
going
to
stress
that,
but
that's
it's
never
done.
The
work
is
never
done
right,
katie
your
work
in
equitable
engagement
and
the
rest
of
the
board.
B
We're
gonna
we're
learning
so
much
through
the
unum
project
that
will
inform
our
work
forward
and
then
you
know
this
enhancing
communication,
the
thread
of
communication
throughout
our
work,
so
that,
regardless
of
when
you
enter
our
community
or
enter
the
process,
you
have
an
understanding
and
that
it's
clear,
accessible
and
available.
So
that's
really
our
goal,
and
so
with
that,
I
would
just
ask
one
more
thing
of
everyone.
Internally
and
externally
libby.
We
know
we've
had
this
conversation
over
and
over
about
the
challenge
in
mutual
respect.
Sometimes
people
are
passionate.
B
We
have
a
passionate
community
and
that's
good,
that's
a
good
thing,
but
recognizing
there's
many
players,
whether
it's
staff
or
commissioners
or
members
of
our
community
or
the
county
board
that
we
all
come
to
it
with
cooperation,
communication
and
consideration
of
each
other,
because
we
all
have
the
same
goal
of
having
a
community.
That's
inclusive
and
the
quality
of
life
is
available
and
that
we
can
have
access
to
transit
and
parks
and
live
and
work
and
play
together,
and
that
only
comes
in
our
process
of
mutual
respect.
B
B
A
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
and
thank
you
bryna
and
jerry
and
everyone
else,
who's
involved
in
this
work.
You
know
some
years
ago
I
I
spoke
at
length
about
my
desire
to
see
us
professionalize
public
engagement
in
our
county,
and
this
is
the
realization
of
that
vision
and
dream,
and
so
I'm
so
grateful
and-
and
it's
really
been
for
the
betterment
of
our
community.
Now
that
I've
said
the
nice
stuff
I'll
point
point
out
some
areas
that
I'd
love
to
see
our
continued
progress.
H
So
you
know
one-
and
this
is
not
a
a
commentary
on
on
your
work,
but
just
where
our
community
is
we
frequently
hear
of
people.
You
know
claim
that
they
don't
know
about
something.
You
know
that
we
haven't
communicated
with
them
and
we
seem
to
spin
in
circles
because
through
all
the
channels
that
you
mentioned,
yeah,
we've
put
it
out
there,
and
but
it
exposes
that
you
know.
On
our
end,
it
is
the
responsibility
to
clearly
share
across
whatever
channels
we
have
whatever
it
is.
H
We
need
people
to
know,
but
for
people
in
our
community
seems
to
be
an
expectation
that
it's
government's
responsibility
to
make
sure
they've
heard
it
or
to
make
sure
it's
been
absorbed,
not
sure
that
we
can
ever
square
that
circle
and
reconcile
it.
But
it's
the
world
that
we
live
in,
and
so
I'm
wondering
if
there
are
other
ways
in
which
we
can
further
ensure
that
the
I
didn't
hear
it.
Therefore,
it's
your
fault
and
you
need
to
now
accommodate
my
coming
on
board
this
process.
H
We
make
sure
that
that
doesn't
derail
what
it
is,
we're
trying
to
do
or
prolong
what
it
is
that
we're
trying
to
do
so.
Inspired
by
something
that
mr
karentonis
and
I
did
this
morning,
the
the
street
smart,
annual
or
semi-annual
campaign
to
promote
awareness
about
traffic
safety,
particularly
for
the
benefit
of
bicyclists
and
pedestrians.
I'm
wondering
if
we
could
do
some
public
educate
public
engagement,
education
campaigns
to
let
people
know
about
all
of
the
things
that
you
shared
with
us
today.
H
If
you
want
to
be
someone
who
knows
what's
going
on,
you
need
to
do
these
tools,
and
not
just
one,
because
one
of
the
things
that
I
fear
you
all
have
a
robust
set
of
things
that
we
are
doing
on
a
regular
basis
or
innovating
and
pioneering
on
an
ad
hoc
basis
and
whatever,
whatever
way
someone
came
into
a
process
of
hearing
about
something,
there's
going
to
be
the
expectation
that
that
tool
is
always
going
to
be
about
how
they
hear
about
things
and
that's
not
sustainable.
H
So
I'm
wondering
if
we
can
as
circumstances
allow
just
periodically
push
out
to
our
entire
community.
If
you
want
to
be
in
the
know,
here's
the
way
you
do
it
here
are
the
hear
the
things
you
sign
up
for
here.
The
things
that
you
check
on
your
own
is
that
something
that
we
can
add
to
our
repertoire.
Absolutely.
B
We
thank
you
for
that
suggestion
and
also
we're
doing
some
work.
It's
it's
not
quite
ready
to
be
primed
prime
time,
but
we
are
doing
some
work.
Jerry's
been
leading
with
a
number
of
people
in
the
room
and
across
the
county,
we're
using
crystal
city
as
a
pilot
where
we're
creating
a
mapping
tool
and
a
storyboard
just
about
crystal
city,
so
that
because
there's
so
much
going
on
and
there's
so
many
avenues.
So
it's
kind
of
like
we
hear
there's
so
much
information.
B
H
Yet
with
the
the
migration
to
the
new
cms.
I've
noticed
that
historical
documents
seem
to
be
dated
by
when
they
migrated
and
not
by
when
they
were
created,
which
has
really
made
it
difficult
for
me
to
actually
do
productive
searches,
and
I
find
it
very
frustrating
so
solve
my
problem.
Please,
and
let
me
know
if
this
is
something
that
can
be
fixed.
J
Yes,
thank
you.
We
meet
weekly
with
the
department
of
technology
services
and
they
have
a
pipeline
and
we've
been
sharing
with
them.
Our
priorities
of
what
we
want
to
see
improved
search
engine
optimization
is
one
of
them
easily
finding
documents
we
are
talking
about
and
we're
a
few
months
out
of
a
document
library.
It
will
take
extensive
cleanup
by
the
departments
to
go
through
the
documents
and
and
label
and
date
them.
J
But
yes,
I
understand
the
frustration
that
the
date
that
you
see
isn't
the
date
that
it
was
actually
posted,
but
when
it
was
migrated
and
that's
something
that
just
happened
in
the
transition
in
the
migration,
as
you
all
know,
part
of
the
reason
why
we
migrated
so
quickly
was
because
of
the
security
concerns,
and
so
essentially,
when
the
switchover
happened,
we
had
to
really
kind
of
look
at
what
added
functionality
we
needed
to
go
back
in
and
fix,
and
that's
one
of
those
areas
about
the
dates.
But
it's
it's
something.
J
We
talk
about
weekly
with
dts
and
we're
working
with
the
departments.
We
have
a
governance
group
now
to
look
at
these
issues
and
and
get
buy-in
from
the
organization
to
really
improve
the
user
experience
on
the
website,
particularly
to
your
point
about
the
historical
documents.
J
So
right
now
we're
focused
on
search
engine,
optimization
and
building
that
up
and
we're
also
going
to
be
looking
at
mapping
tools,
but
the
document
search
library.
I
think
we're
going
to
start
working
on
that
this
summer
meeting
with
the
departments
to
to
kind
of
tackle
that,
and
so
we're
hopeful
that
this
fall
there
would
be
some
improvement.
Okay,.
C
One
question
and
then
a
few
a
couple
comments,
so
I've
been
I've
talked
to
some
folks
in
civic
associations
and
they've
been
saying
we
have
so
much
trouble
reaching
out
to
people.
You
have
all
of
this
data.
Can
you
help
us
do
that,
and
I
know
there
are
all
kinds
of
legal
ways
not
to
do
that,
but
I
have
it
has
occurred
to
me
that
we
have
on
the
old-fashioned
sense.
C
K
Oh
yes,
so
I've
been
with
the
county
for
a
little
bit
now
but
pre-covid.
We
had
this
series
of
conversations
called
energize
arlington,
where
we
focused
on
some
of
the
things
that
we
had
heard
from
some
civic
association
roundtables
in
2018..
K
K
You
know
getting
in
with
the
multi-family
buildings
and
some
other
items
that
were
hot
topics
that
we
centered
the
energized
arlington
series
around,
and
these
conversations
allowed
us
to
continue
to
gather
that
feedback,
invite
a
bit
of
a
brighter,
broader
audience
and
then
develop
tools.
Out
of
the
conversations
that
we
had,
including
a
civic
association
president
tool
kit.
So
now,
every
time
a
new
civic
association
president
is
comes
into
their
role.
K
We
actually
reach
out
to
them,
ask
for
a
sit
down
and
we
can
go
down
the
list
of
really
helpful
resources
and
I
think
they've
you
know
shared
that
they've
appreciated
it
and
used
it
consistently
in
their
work.
And
then
it's
just
developing
tools.
As
we
go,
I
mean
the
multi-family
complex
directory
is
an
example
of
a
long-standing
need
that
was
expressed
by
folks
from
those
conversations
and
we're
you
know,
we've
had
some
small
wins
along
the
way,
but
that's
an
example
of
a
big
win
that
helps
us
to
that.
To
that
greater
capacity.
K
Building
that
we
know
our
community
needs.
C
Thank
you.
No,
I
know
that's
great
and
something
those
buildings
is
you
you
find
out
they're
all
there
and
have
them
all
listed.
You
still
can't
get
inside,
and
I
know
that
that's
hard
and
I
think
we've
talked
at
times
about.
Well,
you
know
welcome
packets
when
people
move
in
and
I'm
I'm
sure
I'd
happy
to
talk
to
you
about
that,
a
little
more
and
see
where
see
where
we
are.
C
I
will
say
listening
on
this
one
when
I
first
started
getting
involved
in
boardwork
1996,
we
were
talking
about
community
engagement
and
I
had
enough.
What's
community
engagement,
what
is
it
I
mean?
That's
how
long
you
know
it's
really
and
it's
great
it's
really
great
to
see
how
far
we've
come
along.
C
I
was
thinking
too
that
to
some
extent
that's
saying
that
repetition
is
the
mother
of
learning
and
I
really
like
the
fact
that
six
years
later,
you've
come
back
you're
kind
of
re-energizing
it
and
presenting
it
again
and
re-going
over
things,
and
I
think
we
need
to
keep
kind
of
repeating
because
it
is
so
much
information.
I
think
that's
really
helpful.
I
love
the
graphics
they
for
one.
C
A
lot
of
people's
eyes
glaze
over
when
you
just
sort
of
do
government
speak
at
them
or
you
give
them
a
page
with
all
kinds
of
white.
You
know
white
and
black
print
on
it.
You
don't
even
plant
it,
but
this
catches,
your
eye,
makes
you
kind
of
think
draws
you
in
that's
great
and
then
I
imagine,
there's
an
incredible
discipline
to
try
to
hone
it
down.
Some
of
them
seem
a
little
involved.
It
might
make
it
a
little
hard
for
people
to
look
at,
but
it
did
occur
to
me
with
the
one.
C
The
infographic
particularly
lover
runs
sewing
all
the
community
engagement
because
we
do
have
these
people
who
come
and
say
you
didn't
talk
to
us.
You
didn't
do
anything,
you
haven't
we'll.
Actually
it's
here
we
have
in
here
and
you
and
a
picture
is
kind
of
worth
a
thousand
words.
So
that's
helpful,
I
don't
think
we'll
ever
get
to
the
point.
You
won't
have
somebody
coming
to
us
and
saying
you
didn't
tell
me
and
you
need
to
stop
this
process
now
until
I
get
caught
up,
but
that's
kind
of
another
issue
in
some
ways
too.
C
D
F
Thank
you
first
thought
is
that,
looking
out
there
are
different
moments
where
the
professionals
communicators,
you
have
seen
the
best
of
me
last
year
and
the
not
best
of
me
and
and
all
those
moments,
and
I
feel
as
though
you've
been
smart,
professional
and
kind
throughout,
and
I
just
that's
an
honest
way
of
trying
to
say
you
know
you
can't
it's
hard
to
spin
a
spin,
a
communicator
and
so
you've
seen
the
reality
and
thank
you
for
it
over
the
last
two
years.
F
Second
thought
is,
I
kind
of
feel
on
the
mutual
respect
point.
I
think
probably
most
of
you
have
thought
about
this,
but
I
feel
like
we're
coming
out
of
a
deficit
there
that
is
sort
of
related
to
the
pandemic,
but
distinct
and
we're
going
to
have
to
like
you
know,
create
that
civility
that
we
want-
and
I
don't
know
if
that's
a
helpful
frame
for
you
all
and
then
the
third
thought-
and
maybe
you
might
have
just
a
little
point
on
it
or
is
I
feel
as
though
you
know
we
started
out.
F
I
started
out
three
years
ago
saying
that
virtual
had
some
big
equity
concerns.
I've
learned
in
some
ways
I
feel,
like
virtual
may,
have
some
equity
benefits,
but
I
feel,
as
though
there's
sort
of
I
imagine
that
an
hour
brainstorming
with
amongst
you
as
professionals,
to
think
about
a
little
bit
more
nuance
on
that.
You
may
have
already
done
it,
but
that's
sort
of
the
question
because
we
do
have
folks
who
don't
have
the
up
and
down
speeds
that
they
need
and
we're
working
on
broadband.
F
But
I
just
wonder
if,
if
you
know
you
probably
already
have
some
ideas
on
that,
we
have
new
law
on
that,
but
that's
an
area
for
maybe
I
could
envision
a
half
hour
hour
of
brainstorming.
You
guys
could
come
up
with
some
great
ideas
and
I
don't
know
if
that
fits.
B
Yeah,
so
a
couple
couple
things
on
that
one
is,
I
think,
throughout
covet,
we
we
made
some
assumptions
that
our
lowest
income
residents
or
our
residents
that
don't
use
english
as
in
their
first
language
might
not
participate
virtually,
but
we
learned
something
very
different
during
the
trust
conversations
that
you
led
and
was
just
thrilled
with
over
60
participants
in
f.
You
know
we
offered
five
different
languages.
We
had.
We
ran
three
sessions
in
spanish.
B
I
mean
it
was
really
an
eye-opener,
but
we
also
had
to
use
some
different
tools
and
so
coming
out
of
that
going
into
throughout
covet
we've
been
doing
all
that
boots
on
the
ground
work
so
that
we
recognize
we
couldn't
do
everything
virtually
so
we
would
go
into
the
community
we've
been
going
into
the
community.
We
can't
stop
that,
but
I
do
think
we
learn
some
things
from
the
trust
conversation
about
how
being
intentional,
in
other
ways,
in
a
virtual
world
relative
to
the
reference
of
the
new
electronic
meeting
spill.
B
There's
a
whole
conversation
that
we
do
need
to
have
about
how
that
will
work,
and
we
are
meeting
tomorrow
morning
with
liaisons
to
go
over
the
electronic
meetings
bill
and
look
forward
to
working
with
you
on.
How
do
we
create
a
hybrid
model?
But,
as
I
mentioned
on
four
years
ago,
we
had
on
our
dream
list
that
people
would
be
able
to
participate
virtually
in
public
comment
and
we
are
doing
you're
doing
that.
You've
led
the
way
and
not
every
community
is,
and
so
thank
you.
G
First
of
all,
I
I
cannot
overstate
how
grateful
I
am,
and
I
think
I
speak
for
almost
everybody
in
arlington
for
what
you've
done
the
last
two
years,
so
that
was
extremely
important
and
extremely
effective
at
the
end,
and
we're
still
I
mean
I,
I
do
believe
that
there
will
be
students
not
only
of
communications
that
will
be
writing
papers
about
that
relatively
soon,
and
I
believe
I
will
find
arlington
what
and
the
work
that
you
all
have
done
in
there
sooner
rather
than
later.
I
believe
so.
G
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
one
is
we
learned
a
lot
from
you,
you
learned
abroad
from
us.
We
learned
all
together
from
our
community
and
there
was
a
golden
point
on
the
sixth
level,
it's
after
action
review.
G
B
B
So,
first
of
all,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
recognize
carrie
johnson
for
the
sixth
step.
It
was
in
this
room
that
I
had
a
conversation
with
carrie
about
the
sixth
step
and
that
she
reinforced
the
importance
of
after
action.
B
B
K
Sure,
I
would
just
say
you
know,
I
think
one
of
our
biggest
goals
is
maximizing
the
amount
of
limited
time
that
we
get
with
folks
right.
K
K
I
think
that
you
know
with
every
every
time
we're
out
there
in
pop-ups
we're
realizing
hey.
You
know
this
didn't
actually
gain
the
reaction
or
maximize
the
amount
of
time
with
that
one
person
because
of
this,
limiting
factor
being
able
to
sit
down
with
the
team
and
take
it
line
by
line
about,
like
you
know,
the
strategy
for
flyers,
the
strategy
for
signs
the
strategy
for
the
places
that
we
actually
went
to
you
know
an
example
of
that
would
be
the
budget.
We
we
go
out
and
engage
every
year.
K
This
year
we
reached
a
little
over
300
people
in
during
our
pop-ups,
but
we
immediately
changed
our
course
of
action
and
applied
what
we
had
learned
to
our
cip
process
and
reached
900
people
that
way,
and
I
think
it
can
grow
even
more.
So
I
would
say
that
continuous
improvement
is
probably
my
most
valued
value
that
we
listed
earlier,
and
this
is
how
we
do.
G
Awesome,
thank
you.
I
had
two
more
things,
but
one
is.
I
do
believe
that
campaigns
are.
They
have
an
amazing,
a
magical
power.
This
is
to
reaffirm
the
values
of
the
community,
because
when
you
do
a
campaign,
for
example,
for
for
for
vision,
zero
et
cetera
at
the
same
time,
you
carry
a
different,
a
whole
lot
of
other
other
things.
G
You
set
the
stage
you
you
condition
the
dialogue,
and
I
think
this
is
a
valuable
instrument
to
to
explore
and
third
one
I've
had
these
conversations
with
with
you
guys
for
a
very
long
time,
whether
we
should
consider
whether
we
should
have
in
our
public
realm
actually
physical
places
where
to
you
know,
put
a
poster.
G
I
do
think
that
they
are
very
powerful
because
they,
you
really
you
know,
bump
into
them.
It's
not
anymore
covered
people
are
actually
out
there
and
they're.
You
know
walking
and
by
and
cycling
and
you're
driving,
and
I
think
that
this
would
be
worth
a
while
to
explore.
G
We
never
did
that
here
in
arlington
in
cities,
where
I've
seen
that
they
are
very
successful
in.
G
So
I
would.
B
Was
that
a
real
question
it
did
well.
Actually
I
mean
your
support,
your
leadership.
We
started
the
presentation
with
public
engagement
as
a
value.
It's
a
value
exchange,
every
single
board,
member
values
that
exchange
so
asking
the
right
questions,
keeping
us
on
track,
holding
us
accountable
that
helps
us.
So
thank
you.
A
You're
fantastic.
Well,
I
hate
to
ask
another
question,
because
what
a
note
to
end
on
that
would
be
one
of
the
the
sort
of
ongoing
tensions
that
I
think
is
just
inherent
in
communications
and
have
been
thinking
about
for
a
long
time.
Is
that
tension
between
breadth
and
depth?
You
know
this
came
up.
I
think,
when
we
had
really,
by
all
intents
and
purposes,
a
complete
count
right,
every
housing
unit,
responding
to
the
census
and
heard
from
a
couple
folks
in
our
community,
saying
like
let's
what?
A
Let's
do
that
for
everything,
and
I
think
one
of
the
reasons
that
was
so
effective
and
even
to
some
extent
that
you
know
the
the
complete
vaccination
committee
was
pretty
effective
as
well.
Not
only
because
of
all
of
the
reasons
that
you
described
all
of
the
work
of
this
team
and
the
the
dedication
of
the
folks
who
served,
but
that
was
such
a
specific
action
right
and
it
was
it
was.
A
It
was
reaching
a
lot
of
people
to
do
something
once
or
maybe
in
the
case
of
vaccination,
then
two
more
times,
but
you
sort
of
complete
the
senate,
the
census
and
then
you've.
You've
done
what
we
we
hoped,
this
campaign
would
get
you
to
do
and
it
can
be
really
challenging.
Instead,
when
we're
trying
to
get
people
involved
in
very
deep
processes
to
really
evaluate
the
trade-offs,
you
know
the
complete
your
census
form
is
really
different
than
you
know.
A
Please
stay
with
the
evolution
of
this
sector
plan
over
two
years,
so
you
can
help
us
understand
whether
to
prioritize
stormwater
retention
relative
to
other
public
facilities
and
setbacks
versus
step
backs
and
so
forth.
You
know
matt
matuzik,
who
is
our?
I
think
our
lead
planner
on
the
pentagon
city
sector
plan
really
had
a
what
I
an
insight
that
landed
with
me
that
I
thought
a
lot
about
since
which
was
you
know.
These
are
the
circumstances.
A
Those
really
deep
circumstances
are
the
ones
in
which
we
almost
definitionally
have
to
rely
on
representatives,
because
you
cannot
get.
You
know
hundreds
of
people
in
a
room
to
really
sort
of
meaningfully
talk
about
those
trade-offs,
so
that
that
may
be
one
answer
that
sort
of
sense
of
representatives.
A
B
Yeah,
so
I
think
there's
campaigns
like
complete
count
and
vaccine
and
vision
zero.
You
know
things
that
climate,
where
you
know
we
need
everyone
to
take
an
action
and
there's
things
that
everyone
can
do
and
then
there's
the
sector
plans
and
there's
small
projects
and
big
projects.
We're
really
working
hard,
as
I
mentioned
in
the
in
the
guide,
to
align
the
engagement
with
the
level
of
impact
who's,
whose
burden
who
benefits
who's
burden.
B
How
do
we
know
who's
missing
and
then
aligning
the
higher
the
level
of
impact
positively
or
negatively
the
more
engagement
right,
the
more
outreach?
So
that
means
that
we
have
to
be
intentional,
sometimes
about
reaching
the
renters
that
live
in
that
building
right
next
door.
It's
intentionality
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
that
for
everything,
but
if
we
use
the
guide
effectively,
it
allows
us
an
alignment
of
breath
and
depth
if.
A
B
A
So
yeah,
I
don't
know
if
that
helps
no,
it
does,
and
I
think
you
know,
there's
also
that
just
that
question
of
knowing
that
folks
in
the
community
have
limited
bandwidth
right,
and
so
what
does
it
mean
to?
And
we've
talked
about
this
a
lot
in
terms
of
how
do
you
provide
those
supports?
And
you
indicated
in
your
presentation,
you
know
around
somebody
who
might
care
very
deeply
about
the
future
of
their
community,
but
is
not
going
to
have.
B
And
that's
where
I
think
you
know
your
point
about
coming
back
in
reminding
people
where
we're
at
doing
snapshots
in
time.
You
know
making
sure
that
when
we're
at
a
new
point
in
engagement,
we
we
elevate
the
energy
around
that
so
that
we
can
bring
people
in.
At
that
point.
B
We
do
know
that
when
it's
in
front
of
people,
you
know
sometimes
it's
not
until
the
construction
folks
show
up,
but
that
we're
that
threat
of
communication
throughout
from
beginning
to
end
is
so
important
that
we,
it
doesn't
end
with
the
plan,
but
that
we
tie
the
project
back
to
where
the
origin
of
the
project
right.
The
people
understand
that
there's
been
this
journey
and
where
we
are
in
the
journey.
So
I
don't
know
if
that
answers
your
question
katie.
I
think
it's
it's
one
of
those.
B
The
job
is
never
done
yeah
and
it's
a
continuous
improvement
and
exploration.
So,
thank
you
sure.
A
A
Talking
about
the
communication
structure
in
the
county's
latticed
right
that
you've
got
folks
who
are
the
subject
matter,
experts
working
within
your
departments,
but
you
also
are
interconnected
in,
and
this
has
been
a
huge
area
of
improvement
that
I've
seen
during
my
tenure
on
the
board
you're
interconnected
to
each
other
too,
and
I
think
that
delivers
on
the
type
of
predictability
that
that
you
were
talking
about,
dr
halford,
that
the
expectation
that
community
members
do
haven't
should
have
that
when
they
participate
in
you
know
a
master
planning
process
for
a
park
that
that
shouldn't
meaningfully
differ
from
participating
in
a
I,
don't
know,
master
planning
process
for
the
water
pollution
control
plan.
A
A
If
this
group
did
not
have
an
identity,
not
only
as
members
of
your
individual
departments
but
as
a
team
with
one
another,
and
so
I
really
appreciate
that
the
work
that's
put
in
there,
certainly
on
behalf
of
this
group
to
steer,
but
also
you
all
to
sort
of
operate
horizontally
as
well
as
vertically
in
your
lattices,
so
appreciate
you
too
all
right.
I
think
that
concludes
yeah.
It's
been
a
real
pleasure.
Thanks
for
the
update.
I
Okay,
one
more,
thank
you,
everybody
and
it's
so
exciting
to
see
everybody
here.
I
can't
believe
our
emergency
management
communicators
and
our
planning
communicators
are
sitting
right
next
to
each
other.
How
did
that
happen?
I'm.
I
So,
madam
chair,
you
know
we
talked
last
in
february
and
also
last
year
in
september
about
our
ongoing
work
that
we
face
in
the
commercial
market,
and
I
know
that
we're
going
to
be
adopting
the
budget
this
evening
and
I'm
especially
get
reminded
of
this.
When
we're
talking
about
the
budget,
we
have
a
great
community
and
we
rely
to
a
very
large
degree
on
the
success
of
our
commercial
sector
and
what
we've
gone
through
in
the
last
two
years
has
been.
I
I
think,
unprecedented
in
the
last
of
what
we've
seen
in
the
last
40
or
50
years.
So
you
challenged
us
to
come
back
with
ideas
about
how
to
improve
our
market
resiliency,
and
what
does
that
actually
mean?
And
how
do
we
go
about
doing
that?
Given
that
our
zoning
ordinance
is
a
product
of
many
decades
ago
and
has
some
crusty
old
barnacles
on
it
that
need
to
be
scraped
off?
I
L
Thank
you,
mr
manager.
Red
dog
is
real
estate
development
group.
It's
not
nearly
as
exciting
as
it
sounds,
but
thank
you
board,
chair
crystal
vice
chair,
dorsey
and
members
of
the
county
board
for
taking
time
to
talk
with
us
this
afternoon.
We
are
excited
to
present
to
you
today
a
proposed
new
approach
to
promote
commercial
market
resiliency
in
arlington
through
land
use,
regulation,
flexibility
and
responsiveness.
L
What
do
we
mean
when
we
talk
about
commercial
market
resiliency?
Well,
these
will
be
targeted
efforts
to
support
or
both
robust
commercial
real
estate
market,
including
the
continuation
of
our
efforts
to
reduce
our
commercial
office
vacancy
rate
and
related
to
continued
our
balanced
fiscal
outlook
where
commercial
real
estate
continues
to
contribute
significantly
to
total
counter
revenues.
L
Why
is
this
an
urgent
need
today?
Well,
really,
it's
about
the
pace
of
economic
change
and
innovation
that
affects
land
use
has
quickened
quicken
dramatically,
particularly
the
last
several
years
with
the
pandemic,
and
this
includes
concepts
like
where
and
how
we
work:
consumer,
behaviors
and
expectations
and
business
practice
innovations.
L
All
this
has
changed
what
were
once
well-defined
land
uses.
We
knew
what
we
we
once
knew,
what
was
in
an
office
building
what
types
of
activities
occurred
in
those
buildings
and
how
to
retain
and
attract
those
uses,
but
the
as
the
economic
model
has
changed
and
will
continue
to
change.
More
dynamic
planning
and
zoning
strategies
are
needed
in
order
for
arlington
to
compete,
regionally
and
nationally,
as
mr
fuzzarelli
will
also
expound
upon.
This
is
not
about
a
need
to
tear
down
and
rebuild
our
planning
and
zoning
rubric.
L
L
Well
through
the
modernized
land
use
regulations
that
can
accommodate
desirable?
And
imagine
emerging
land
uses.
First,
we
provide
more
streamlined
and
predictable
approval
processes
for
new
businesses.
Investments
by
new
businesses
become
very
challenging
to
justify
with
significant
regulatory
uncertainty,
especially
entrepreneurs
and
small
businesses,
where
capital
is
constrained
and
risk
of
business
failure
is
high.
L
The
more
predictable
businesses
on
on
the
other
side
of
that
coin
will
also
allow
landlords
to
take
more
risk
and
emerging
and
innovative
uses
they'll
be
able
to
provide
the
spaces
for
those
types
of
businesses
from
a
county
workflow
perspective.
The
more
predictable
process
will
also
remove
items
that
burden
the
county
board
agenda
and
take
up
significant
staff
resources.
L
This
list
is
not
meant
to
be
exhaustive,
nor
is
it
all
low-hanging.
Fruit
can
all
happen
immediately,
but
I
do
think
they
are
a
good
start
to
think
about
the
types
of
uses
our
community
may
see
and
may
actually
enjoy
to
see
in
the
future
in
the
near
future.
L
Mr
fritz
oil
and
now
walk
through
the
details
of
the
new
planning
approach,
including
how
we
parse
and
quickly
react
in
future
new
uses
and
how
we
distinguish
between
uses
that
have
different
levels
of
complexity,
as
well
as
some
near-term
action
that
we
approached
to
undertake.
Thank
you
very
much.
M
Thank
you,
mr
mccauley
and
good
afternoon
board
members
right
on
cue.
I
am
having
technical
difficulties,
so
I'm
gonna
momentarily
leave
the
mill
meeting
and
return
virtually
not
physically.
L
M
Okay,
so
it
is
against
this
backdrop
that
we
are
here
this
afternoon
to
share
our
latest
thinking
around
proposed
changes
to
our
pertinent
planning
and
zoning
systems.
M
M
The
internal
and
external
processes
associated
with
such
uses
adjusting
our
approval
paths
for
an
entitlement
types
to
be
best,
matched
for
the
proposed
use
and,
finally,
a
variety
of
other
process
changes,
including
updates
to
our
standard
site
plan
conditions
and
how
we
distinguish
between
major
and
minor
site
plan
amendments
in
our
zoning
ordinance
or
other
items
to
be
administratively
approved
and
to
say
just
a
few
words
here
about
process.
We
have
also
considered
how
to
improve
our
approach
to
emerging
uses
as
well.
M
This
begins
with
a
well-defined
dedicated
response
staff
team
who
would
play
a
key
role
in
addressing
business
requests
for
certain
uses
and
would
also
conduct
research
on
such
uses
at
a
starting
point.
M
Based
on
this
research
and
other
factors,
our
analysis
would
then
involve
a
criteria
based
decision
on
which
type
of
process
would
be
most
appropriate
to
consider
for
that
potential,
new
use
and
based
on
our
conceptualization
to
date.
The
three
categories
we've
developed
would
involve
studies
that
are
either
quick,
nimble
or
nuanced.
M
Micro
fulfillment
could
be
envisioned
as
a
use
that
repurposes
portions
of
an
underutilized,
parking,
garage
or
non-storefront
portion
of
an
existing
building
locally
delivers
most
or
all
of
its
goods
by
non-motorized
modes
of
transport.
In
this
form,
we'd
see
this
as
a
quick
use.
Study
now
consider
a
similar
use,
but
one
that
occupies
a
ground
floor,
storefront
space
or
perhaps
has
increased,
expected
impacts
on
the
public
right-of-way.
M
M
M
So
in
closing
I'll
review,
our
proposal
to
pilot
this
proposed
approach
with
an
emerging
use
of
urban
micro
fulfillment,
we'll
first
be
addressing
the
quick
use,
study
version
of
micro
fulfillment,
where
such
uses
would
occupy
existing
buildings
that
are
non-store
front
or
garages
and
where
most
or
all
deliveries
are
made
through
non-motorized
means
our
next
steps.
After
assigning
staff
to
the
study,
we'd
initiate
research
and
analysis
on
the
requested
use,
we
would
then
bring
forward
to
the
county
board.
M
We
were
targeting
july
for
a
request
to
advertise
and
then
followed
by
engagement,
including
with
the
zoning
committee
of
the
planning
commission
in
september,
and
come
back
to
planning,
commission
and
county
board
for
hearings
in
october,
consistent
with
the
time
frame
shared
earlier,
and
so
with
that
once
we
get
started,
it's
important
to
note
here
that,
as
we
initiate
this
work,
if
we
find
that
the
studies
can
be
completed,
obviously
in
under
six
months,
we
would
endeavor
to
do
so.
A
A
In
fact
that
particularly
began
when
we
began
to
consider
alternative
uses,
or
rather
amendments
to
the
form-based
code
on
columbia,
pike
that
might
allow
for
different
types
of
uses
and
whether
that
was
dog
boarding
or
side
raiser
meaderies,
which
I
think
we
we
quickly
realized
that
there
were
quite
a
few
areas
where
our
zoning
ordinance
was
the
obstacle
to
a
type
of
use
that
not
only
the
market
was
eager
to
supply,
but
that
our
residents
and
consumers
were
eager
to
avail
themselves
of.
A
So
I
really
appreciate
these
efforts
on
behalf
of
staff
to
think
about
what
this
would
look
like
county
wide
and
how
to
be
able
to
operate
tactically,
to
adjust
to
exactly,
as
mr
mccauley
said,
rapidly
changing,
economy
and
marketplace.
So
everyone's
lights
went
on.
At
the
same
time,
I'm
going
to
start
with
ms
garvey
and
just
make
our
way
down
here.
C
Unless
charlie
just
put
his
price
simple
to
go
right
forward,
I'm
happy
to
do
it.
Thank
you.
This
is,
you
know,
I
think,
we've
all
been
feeling
for
quite
a
while
that
this
has
been
needed.
It's
kind
of
clear.
I
think
it's
maybe
in
a
way
a
little
bit
of
a
a
gift
of
the
pandemic.
C
You
know
we
sort
of
all
knew
this
needed
to
happen
and
it
sort
of
felt
impossible
and
then
suddenly
everything
closed
down
and
we
did
ptosis
and
you
did
I
mean
really.
It
was
impressive
how
how
how
quickly
and
you
kind
of
were
able
to
respond
to
some
of
that.
So
my
question
is
just
kind
of
basic
and
sort
of
a
somebody
who
doesn't
really
think
about
you
know
I
don't
spend
all
my
time
on
zoning,
whatever
six
months
doesn't
feel
like
quick
to
me
and
and
looking
at
the
the
on.
C
I
think
it's
slide.
Eight,
I'm
actually
I'm
not
quite
clear
if
it's
seven
or
eight,
but
the
one
that
has
the
analysis.
You've
got
quick
goes
down
and
the
staff
analysis
it
looks
like
is
going
to
take
three
and
a
half
months.
Sort
of,
if
it's,
if
that's
the
way,
you
meant
it
to
line
up
so
that
seems
like
the
longest
amount
of
time.
Is
there
a
way
to
speed
up
that
part
at
least
really
try
to
get
four
months
doesn't
actually
feel
really
quick,
but
it
feels
like
way
better.
C
M
No
thank
you
for
the
question.
I
think
I
think
the
to
answer.
Your
first
question.
I
think
the
the
way
the
graphic
is
depicted
here,
they're
supposed
to
be
conceptually
so
exactly
where
those
words
fall
relative
to
the
spectrum.
M
It's
not
intended
to
kind
of
communicate
that
that
would
be
sort
of
the
the
timing
of
each
of
those
incremental
parts,
but
it
was.
You
know
we'll
say
that,
even
in
terms
of
that
six-month
process,
there
is
a
number
of
things
that
staff
would
have
to
undertake
and
complete
the
the
analysis.
You
know
we
have
to
conduct
a
certain
level
of
analysis
to
even
prepare
for
the
request
to
advertise
and
for
something
like
urban
micro
fulfillment.
That
is
again
in
an
existing
garage
and
not
relying
on
motorized
vehicles
for
transport.
M
There
is
a
little
bit.
There
is
some
work
associated
with
that,
but
we
think
obviously
it's
it's
a
lot
less
than
more
of
a
intensive
operation.
M
I
do
think
that
an
important
point
to
make
about
this
proposed
approach
is
the
proposal
to
actually
advertise
up
front
before
engagement
and
when
it
comes
to
a
zoning
ordinance
amendment
that
advertisement
actually
becomes
really
important
in
terms
of
setting
the
scope,
and
so
if
we
advertise
ask
the
board
to
advertise
something
where
the
scope
isn't
quite
fully
developed
or
thought
through,
we
we
do
run
the
risk.
M
If,
as
we
proceed
and
advance
our
studies
and
engagement,
we
do
run
the
risk
of
actually
needing
to
re-advertise
if
we
decide
to
change
something
along
the
way.
So
that's
part
of
the
thinking
is
that
we
don't
want
to
necessarily
kind
of
shortchange
ourselves
on
the
time
for
the
staff
analysis,
because
we
want
to
try
and
leave
no
stone
unturned
to
the
extent
we
can
within
within
a
timely
fashion.
C
So
speaking,
just
for
myself,
thank
you,
that's
helpful,
so
the
risk
is
that
you'd
have
to
re-advertise
and
take
longer.
So
if
you've
got
it
at
three,
if
you
manage
to
get
it
down
a
lot
faster
and
you
don't
manage
to
pull
it
off,
we
end
up
at
the
six
months
where
you
might
have
been
anyway.
Possibly
you
see
what
I'm
saying
and
it
might
be
a
risk
work
take
worth
taking.
Sometimes
because
if
you
do
it,
okay
and
you
anything
goes
as
well
as
you
think,
then
we
actually
can
do
it
quicker.
C
So
the
worst
thing
that
will
happen
is
you'll
end
up
at
the
six
months.
You
thought
you
were
going
to
have
to
need
in
the
first
place.
I
I
don't
know
if
that's
the
case,
but
that's
what
I'm
sort
of
seeing
might
be
a
possibility,
so
this
board
member
at
least
particularly
we're
trying
to
pilot
if
we
finally
have
to
re-advertise
something
I'm
not
going
to
be
like
angry
at
you
guys,
for
you
know
not
catching
something,
and-
and
that
might
be
something
that
would
happen
with
the
pilot.
C
I
don't
know
so
I
guess
I
just
a
little
bit
more
more
risk.
There
might
be,
might
be
worth
it
on
on
some
of
these
things,
just
sort
of
saying
that,
speaking
for
myself,
but
I'm
only
one
of
five
of
us,
but
I
really
am
pleased
that
we're
we're
trying
to
do
this.
It's
sounding
a
little.
It's
reminding
me
a
little
bit
of
the
presentation
we
just
had
where
it's
really
about
the
impact.
C
You
know
if
there's
not
a
whole
lot
of
impact,
even
if
you
kind
of
make
you
know
we
have
to
we
get
it
out
there
and
if
there's
not
a
whole
lot
of
impact,
then
maybe
it
doesn't.
They
require
all
that,
whereas,
if
there's
a
whole
lot
of
impact,
I
totally
understand
that
you're
going
to
need
to
take
take
more
time,
because
if
you
make
a
mistake,
it's
a
problem,
I
guess
it's
a
whole
risk.
Analysis
is
maybe
what
it
is
so
so.
Thank
you.
That's
thank
you.
My
question
for
now,
thanks.
F
A
thank
you
to
the
manager
and
I
think
it
was.
I
don't
know
whether
it
was
a
chair,
but
this
is
not
an
issue
that
I
had
seen
as
as
fully
as
you
all
had
seen,
and,
and
also
thank
you
for
the
work
quickly-
and
this
is
great.
This
is
just
gonna.
Be
a
comment.
That's
a
thought,
the
uses.
F
I
think
this
is
the
scope
of
what
the
work
was
is
the
uses
are
primarily
ground
floor
and-
and
I
think
we
have
this
other
office
issue-
that's
out
there
and
I
will
you
guys
can
share
if
you
want,
but
I'll
be
happy
to
loop
back.
I
know
that
work
is
happening.
I
just
think
that
there's
some
concepts
on
the
full
office
that
we
have
a
lot
of
spin-off
businesses
that
are
likely
to
happen
in
the
next
few
years.
F
There's
a
couple
of
ways
in
which
I
you
know
getting
from
20
down
to
14
is
going
to
take
some
work.
I
think
some
will
happen,
but
some
there'll
be
some
work.
So
that's
you
know
in
the
interest
of
time
I'm
just
sort
of
flagging.
That's
my
biggest
thought.
This
work
seems
great
to
me
and
I'm
just
thanks
to
you
and
and
our
chair
leadership
and
and
vice
chair,
I
believe,
and
because
I
I
haven't
been
following,
but
it's
the
right
work
to
be
doing
and
big.
L
And
just
to
clarify
board
member
defranci,
these
are
about
upper
floor
uses
as
well.
I
think
columbia
pike
was
focused
on
the
ground
floor,
because
that
was
the
focus
of
that
study,
but
a
lot
of
those
uses
could
be
upper
floor
and
things
like
flex,
r
d
lab
spaces
is
absolutely
about
filling
off
a
space.
Urban
agriculture
may
be
feeling
about
filling
off
a
space
education
university
is
about
flying
out
of
space,
so
we
are
as
focused
not
just
on
ground
floor,
but
on
the
commercial
vacancy
rate
commercial
office
vacancy
rate,
as
well.
L
A
A
And
I'll
just
clarify
that
I
I
personally
deserve
no
credit
for
it.
I
think
this
is
really
on
the
initiative
of
our
manager
and
really
the
recognition
of
both
our
planning
and
economic
development
teams
for
for
this
opportunity.
So
mr
dorsey.
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Yes-
and
you
know,
credit
does
go
to
mr
schwartz,
for
you
know
managing
us
through
a
pandemic,
but
also
having
his
eye
on
the
prize
for
a
potential
existential
crisis
looming,
and
so
your
ability
to
multitask
and
walk
and
chew
gum
at
the
same
time.
Just
is
one
other
reason
why
we're
we're
pleased
to
have
your
your
leadership
of
our
county
government?
H
With
that
you
know
this
is
just
really
great
work,
and
you
know,
I
think,
responsive
to
things
that
we
have
specifically
or
implicitly
been
asking
for
for
quite
a
while,
and
I
think
it.
It
is
also
the
culmination
of
a
lot
of
work
that
we're
doing
in
thinking
about
you,
know,
equity
and
remediating,
past
or
historic
or
legacy
choices,
none
of
which
are
necessarily
bad
per
se,
but
just
not
necessarily
suited
for
our
modern
times
and
environment.
H
And
you
know
this
very
much
gets
at
you
know
some
of
the
criticisms
of
euclidean
zoning,
which
has
been
you
know
predominant
paradigm
for
about
a
hundred
years,
and
you
know
when
we
think
about
what
zoning
is,
is
attempting
to
do
and
designed
to
do
to
make
sure
that
we
have
development
compatible
with
infrastructure,
so
that
development
doesn't
overwhelm
infrastructure
that
we
can.
You
know,
curb
externalities
that
come
from
whatever
use
might
be
in
order
and
that
we
can
develop
or
maintain
a
community
character.
H
That
could
be
a
growth
or
could
be
an
area
of
opportunity
for
arlington
to
reduce
the
commercial
vacancy
rate
had
the
privilege
of
exploring
a
lot
of
these
types
of
spaces
throughout
the
region,
and
I
mean
they
are
as
compatible
with
an
office
use
as
any
of
the
million
and
one
uses
that
we
have
going
on
right
now
and
that
that's
a
difficult
path
for
people
to
do
in
a
community
like
arlington
is
is,
is
a
pox
on
us,
given
the
kind
of
tech
hub
that
we're
building
in
this
community,
those
uses
ought
to
be
facilitated.
H
So
I
see
that
as
an
area
of
great
great
opportunity
and
those
exist
very
well
within
mixed
environments
or
could
provide
opportunities
for
people
to
you
know,
take
over
whole
office
buildings
in
the
future,
to
do
some
pretty
amazing
things
and
be
located
close
to
the
talent
that
is
probably
you
know,
working
there
or
would
be
attracted
to
working
there.
So
anyway,
I
think
this
is.
H
This
is
great
work
that
can
lead
to
even
greater
things
than
we're
we're
indicating
by
our
conversation
today
and
applaud
you
on
it
and
am
very
supportive
and
and
ms
garvey.
While
I
appreciate
that
you
would
like
to
see
quicker,
I
think
look
wherever
you
can
go
quicker,
but
four
months
would
still
be
great.
Compared
to
six
months
will
still
be
great
compared
to
the
status
quo.
So
I'm
I'm
with
you.
H
I'd
love
it
to
be
as
quickly
as
possible,
but
I'm
I'm
not
going
to
to
shy
away
from
going
six
months
is,
is
really
good
too.
G
Thank
you,
mom
chair,
scraping
the
barnacles,
that's
a
very
healthy
practice.
From
time
to
time.
Yeah
I
mean
there
is
no
worse
thing
than
a
boat
with
a
lot
of
barnacles
underneath
that's.
D
G
Really
a
nightmare,
so
thank
you
for
that.
One
of
the
innovations
that
you're
proposing
I
find
absolutely
you
know
very
intriguing.
This
is
a
scout
team,
so
people
who
will
be
on
staff
who
will
be
actually
investigating
you
know
new
new
users
and
preparing
right.
So
I
would
like
I
mean.
I
believe
that
this
will
be
probably
the
best
accelerator
we.
We
will
understand
a
lot,
a
lot
of
things
before
the
actually.
G
Somebody
comes
with
a
proposal
here
and
we
will
be
ready
to
receive
that
right,
which
means
we
will
be
opening
we'll
be
putting
a
big
sign.
That
says
we
are
open
for
business
here.
Here's
where
you
can
start-
and
I
think
this
is
great,
so
two
questions.
One
is
how
exactly
this
will
work
so
how
they?
How
are
they
going
to
scout
and
find?
A
second
thing
is:
what
else
are
we
going
to
do
on
the
aed
side?
G
I've
seen
this
flexibilization,
so
this
scraping
of
barnacles
always
going
hand
in
hand
with
something
else
like,
for
example,
and
here
you
have
a
you-
know,
a
financial
support
program
right
here.
You
have
you
know
certain
things
where
you
we
would
be
focusing
on
that.
A
big
example
for
me,
something
I
feel
very
strong
about
is
kind
of
mentioned
here.
It's
probably
between
nimble
and
nuanced.
It's
a
urban
manufacturing.
M
So
thank
you
for
the
question
I'll
I'll
go
ahead
and
try
to
address
the
first.
The
first
question
then,
maybe
turn
into
mr
mccauley
for
the
second
but
yeah
I
mean
in
a
way
this
slide
depicts,
I
think,
the
creation
of
a
new
team
that
already
exists
in
some
way.
So
it's
just
the
intent
here
is
really
to
formalize
and
improve
the
staff
we
bring
together
to
respond
to
requests
that
either
arlington
economic
development
might
receive
as
sort
of
the
first
entry
point
or
cphd
planning
might
receive.
M
M
We
really
should
be
including
some
of
our
colleagues
and
partners
in
other
agencies
within
our
departments
and
perhaps
elsewhere
as
part
of
that
initial
response,
because
we
might,
while
we
might
be
looking
at
it
from
an
economic
development
and
planning
perspective,
there
may
be
zoning
nuances.
There
may
be.
You
know,
building
code
nuances
that
really
we
should
have
the
benefit
of
that
knowledge
and
insight
going
in.
M
So
I
think,
taking
sort
of
the
informal
team
we
currently
have
and
and
expanding
it
and
making
it
a
bit
more
formal,
is
really
the
intent
of
what's
there
but
yeah
for
the
second
question,
turn
it
over
to
mark.
L
Yeah,
I
think,
in
terms
of
how
our
business
investment
group
in
particular
goes
out
and
finds
prospects.
I
think
we
always
from
my
side
of
that
department.
We
always
talk
about
them
being
unencumbered,
go,
find
the
prospects
and
we'll
figure
out
how
to
get
it
done.
This
is
just
an
easier
way
to
get
it
done,
and
I
think
it's
an
easier
way
for
them
to
go
out
and
find
prospects
and
look
them
straight
in
the
face
and
say
we
have
a
process
to
get
you
there
versus
versus
the
unknown.
The
uncertainty
right.
L
What
did
you
see
out
there
and
what
was
the
cool
stuff
you
saw
and
let's
get
ahead
of
that
before
business,
has
to
ask
us,
because
that
may
we
can
get
it
done
before
the
business
comes
in
and
asks
us,
because
you
can
go
out
there.
So
I
think
that
process
of
research
and
discovery
is
also
a
critical
part
of
this.
When
usually,
we've
asked
those
folks
to
go
out
there
find
the
right
prospects
and
then
we
have
to
then
figure
out
how
to
get
it
done.
So
I
think
that's
part
of
the
approach.
L
A
That
was
terrific
and
mr
mcauley
wanted
note
to
end
on
too
I
mean
I
think,
you've
really
described
what
this
means
for
our
economic
development,
recruitment
practices,
which
is
exciting
and
again
you
need
to
just
emphasize.
This
is
not
just
for
shoring
up.
You
know
our
office
vacancy
rate
and
commercial
sector.
A
This
is
also
because
you
know
many
of
these
are
uses
that
our
residents
are
really
interested
in
right,
whether
it's
pursuing
you
know
a
new
certification
or
higher
education
in
a
in
a
way,
that's
close
to
their
home
or
taking
advantage
of
urban
agriculture
or
whatever
else
the
case
may
be.
So
I
think
this
is
really
exciting
for
both
our
commercial
market,
but
also
for
arlingtonians
as
consumers.
I
think
this
is
going
to
yield
a
lot
of
enthusiasm.
A
So
thank
you
so
much
for
this
work.
I
think
you
from
what
I'm
hearing
you
have
the
the
strong
support
from
the
board.
When
the
only
feedback
you
get
is
go
faster,
then
you,
you
know
you're
headed
in
the
right
direction,
so
thank
you
so
much
and
mr
manager
does
that
conclude
your
report
for
us
today.
A
Fantastic,
we
have
a
couple
of
items
to
consider
in
a
closed
session,
so
I
am
going
to
move
that
the
county
board
convene
a
closed
meeting
is
authorized
by
virginia
code
sections,
2.2,
37,
11,
8.3
and
8
for
two
discussions
regarding
the
acquisition
of
and
disposition
of
real
property
for
public
purpose,
where
discussion
of
an
open
meeting
in
an
open
meeting
would
adversely
affect
the
bargaining
position
or
the
negotiating
strategy
of
the
public
body
and
for
a
discussion
with
a
county
attorney.
Regarding
case
number
cl22-1290.
A
A
As
our
first
item
of
business,
I'm
going
to
reconvene
us
into
our
open
meeting
by
moving
that
the
members
of
the
county
board
certify
at
the
just
concluded
closed
session.
First,
only
public
business
matters
lawfully
exempted
from
open
meeting
requirements
under
chapter
37,
title
2.2
of
the
code
of
virginia
and
two
only
such
public
business
matters
as
were
identified
in
the
motion
by
which
the
closed
meeting
was
convened,
were
heard,
discussed
or
considered
by
the
board.
N
Yes,
of
course,
mrs
crystal
yes,
mr
dorsey,
yes,
mr
defronti,
yes,
mr
karentonis,
yes
and
ms
garvey,
we'll.
A
Hold
the
vote
open
for
her
yeah
great.
Thank
you
so
much.
Okay!
Welcome
back.
We
had
no
items
pulled
from
our
consent
agenda
on
saturday,
so
we
are
going
to
move
forward
with
the
first
regular
item
and
mr
kushner.
Could
you
call
that
item
please.
N
Of
course,
items
number
42,
a
through
p,
are
related
to
the
fiscal
year.
2023
proposed
operating
budget
tax
rates
and
various
fees
as
a
note
to
the
public.
The
public
comment
period
for
this
item
is
concluded
and
discussion
is
with
the
board.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
I
do
believe.
However,
we
have
a
brief
staff
presentation
for
the
manager
is
that
right
or
no,
it
is
solely
with
the
board.
Okay.
In
that
event,
ms
garvey
is
going
to
join
us.
I
hate
to
just
launch
into
it
without
her
okay.
Why
don't
we
do
this
before
we
begin
making
motions?
A
A
Excellent
okay,
thank
you
so
much
okay,
so
certainly
everybody
who
joined
us
on
thursday
knows
that
we
have
a
near-complete
mark-up,
although
I
will
be
making
one
motion
to
further
amend
it
in
introducing
that
item,
and
we
alluded
to
the
fact
that
we
are
going
to
have
some
guidance
accompanying
that
adopted
budget,
which
is
generally
our
custom.
This
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
express
the
will
of
the
board
our
direction
to
the
manager
and
staff
in
general
to
accompany
those
allocations.
A
Generally
speaking,
they
are
indeed
about
allocations,
but
in
a
few
cases
they're
also
about
priorities
that
we
have
for
the
year
ahead.
So
I
am
going
to
for
purposes
of
discussion,
move
the
guidance
before
us.
If
I
have
a
second
great,
that's
been
seconded,
I'm
going
to
propose
that
we
work
for
you
through
it
I'll
call
on
colleagues
to
speak
specifically
to
some
of
the
items
on
which
you
have
been
working.
I'll
begin
with
just
two
points
regarding
compensation,
which
of
course
has
been
the
overall
theme
of
this
budget.
A
One
of
the
things
we
have,
of
course
talked
about
throughout
this
budget
is
the
recognition
that,
while
frontline
workers
are
often
in
public
safety,
they
are
by
no
means
exclusively
there
and
from
water
sewer
streets
to
mental
health
counselors.
We
have
positions
where
folks
have
endured
a
great
amount
of
stress
during
the
pandemic,
and
the
high
number
of
vacancies
indeed
reflect
that
stress.
A
So,
although
we
do
not
are
not
able
to
get
into
the
mechanics
of
the
pay
plan
enough
to
manipulate
individual
salaries
with
different
increases,
we
are
very
much
expecting
the
manager
to
use
his
expertise
to
develop
a
plan
for
amounts
and
uses
of
about
half
a
million
or
of
half
a
million
dollars
in
incentive
funds
and
come
back
to
us
on
july
1st,
with
his
plans
for
using
those
funds
and
assessing
their
efficacy,
which
is
also
really
important
to
make
sure
that
they're
working
this.
A
I
I
have
july
1st
as
an
opportunity
for
an
update
from
the
manager.
We
recognize
that
that
the
full
determination
may
not
be
made
about
the
right
places
to
invest
that
until
later
in
the
fiscal
year,
but
with
the
expectation
that
that
would
be
done
during
the
first
half
of
the
fiscal
year.
There
is
another
item
regarding
compensation.
A
This
is
something
that
came
up
throughout
our
conversations,
certainly
our
work
sessions,
which
is
a
recognition
of
the
fact
that
there
are
pretty
dramatically
shifting
employee
preferences
when
it
comes
to
where
employment
is
going.
That
historically,
arlington
has
really
led
the
region
either
by
policy
or
simply
the
reality
that
we
don't
participate
in.
A
The
virginia
retirement
system,
like
some
of
our
peer
jurisdictions,
do
but
generally
arlington
has
led
the
region
and
been
the
most
competitive
in
terms
of
the
most
generous
post-employment
benefits,
but,
as
we
saw
from
the
human
resources
department
during
our
budget
work
session,
we
are
not
always
the
most
competitive
with
components
of
sort
of
within
workforce
year's
benefits,
and
we
would
like
the
opportunity
or
we'd
like
the
manager
to
explore
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
whether
the
best
get
of
benefits
is
as
competitive
as
we
need
to
attract
and
retain
the
workforce.
A
You
know
of
of
current
and
rising
generations.
This
is,
of
course,
going
forward.
I
should
emphasize,
rather
than
proposing
to
to
make
changes
to
employees
who
maybe
are
near
retirement,
for
example.
In
short,
this
is
an
opportunity
or
we
are
at.
We
would
be
asking
the
manager
to
to
start
this
conversation
with
employee
representatives,
where
applicable
and
engaging
employee
perspectives
in
general.
This
is
simply
suggesting
that
the
board
supports
this
line
of
discussion
not
to
prejudge
any
particular
outcome.
A
So
moving
on
the
the
next
item
is
one
time
relief
for
frontline
human
services
non-profits.
Mr
defrendy,
would
you
like
to
speak
to
this
part
of
guidance.
F
There
is
the
the
this
is
driven
by
a
sort
of
a
related
recognition
that
human
services
non-profits
have
in
some
ways
been
doing
frontline
response,
and
the
effort
is
to
pattern
after
grant
2.0,
where
there's
a
desire
that
both
those
non-profits
with
the
majority
of
their
services
and
that
are
focused
on
human
service
needs,
who
already
have
relation
grant
or
relationships
or
contract
relationships
with
the
county,
would
be
eligible,
but
also
those
who
do
not
because
we
know
that
the
that
we
have
ongoing
work
and
sort
of
systematize
our
approach.
F
And
so
what
I
would
note
about
this
is
that
grant.
F
This
is
something
that
we
will
continue
to
work
with
our
department
of
human
services,
deputy
county
manager
on,
and
it
would
come
the
grant,
criteria,
award
and
notice
of
fundability
funding
availability
first
quarter
of
2023,
but
we
anticipate
being
in
in
in
contact
with
our
staff
expertise
as
they
develop
criteria,
and
eventually
this
will
have
to
the
decisions
on
the
final
awards
that
have
met
the
threshold
would
have
to
come
back
to
the
board.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
work
open.
F
I
know
there
was
discussion
on
thursday
but
appreciate
the
work
that
staff
has
done
as
well
as
you,
madam
chair
to
to
come
to
this.
I
think
this
is
a
sort
of
a
targeted
approach
of
one-time
funding
that
I
hope
will
help
us
as
we
move
from
move
fully
into
budget
recovery.
We
have.
Obviously
our
economy
has
been
recovering,
but
we
still
have
some
challenges
and
that's
what
led
to
this
language
thanks.
A
And
I
I
don't
know
if
you'd
like
to
speak
first
to
the
second
to
the
next
item,
which
is
also
something
I
know.
You've
been
passionate
about.
F
Sure,
and-
and
this
is
this-
is
we
had
a
request
and
we've
done
some
thinking
about
the
need
for
analysis
of
substance,
abuse,
recovery
and
medical
expertise
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
everything
we
can
in
in
our
jail
in
our
detention
center
to
to
make
sure
that
we're
protecting
those
who
are
in
the
jail
and
the
the
inmates
who
are
there
and
the
the
individuals
there.
So
this
is
essentially
trying
to
provide
medical
expertise
and
there's
it
would
be
collaboratively.
F
We
have
touch
base
with
the
sheriff's
office,
in
addition
to
the
police,
department
and
department
of
human
services.
So
this
is
an
effort
to
follow
up,
make
sure
we're
evaluating
with
that
medical
expertise
that
our
community
has
shared
with
us.
But
we
have
also
worked
on
this
issue
and
we
think
this
is
a
good
one-time
analysis.
F
I
think
there's
some
initial
work.
That's
already
started,
so
there's
possibility
for
achieving
this
goal
of
medical
expertise,
but
also
doing
it
in
an
efficient
way.
So
that's
the
proposal.
Thanks.
Thank.
A
You
so
much,
I
think,
we're
all
looking
forward
to
seeing
the
results
of
that
analysis,
because
I
think
we
certainly
share
a
desire,
along
with
the
sheriff,
to
improve,
where
possible,
there's
a
little
more
guidance
to
follow.
If
I
could
encourage
yeah
else
going
down
and
again
this
is
it's
been
a
busy
budget
process
for
you,
too,
I'm
gonna
turn
to
you
to
speak
to
these.
F
Sure
this
is
a
also
one-time
funding.
It's
a
strategic
funding
pool
seeking
to
address
we've,
we've
heard
from
heard
and
engaged
with
our
partnerships
and
as
we
as
we're
moving
out
of
this
difficult
economic
time.
There's
our
staff
has
worked
on
this
and
I
appreciate
the
time
and
effort
of
our
deputy
county
manager.
F
Ms
flanagan
watson,
who's
worked
on
this.
I
will
point
to
the
the
sentence
that
includes
the
three
different
options:
call
that
to
the
attention
of
colleagues,
I'm
particularly
interested
in
myself
in
potential
grant
matching
pro
matching
funding,
because
we
know
we
want
to
build
that
capacity
of
our
partnerships
to
to
raise,
raise
funding
independently,
and
so
this.
This
is
a
language
that
seeks
to
accomplish
that
goal.
It
is
one
time
I
want
to
really
stress
that.
F
I'm
mindful
that
the
language
of
this
is
what
staff
has
worked
on
and
we
have
worked
together
on.
It
might
not
be
every
comma
and
and
every
phrase
not
might
not
be
how
any
one
person
might
do
it.
But
we've
worked
collaboratively
to
develop
this
language,
and
I
see
this
as
a
way
to
move
our
partnerships
forward
as
they
as
we
work
with
them
to
build
capacity
and
strengthen
the
the
three
different
focal
points
of
the
columbia,
pike,
partnership,
clarendon
alliance
and
langston
boulevard.
F
So
appreciate
the
chance
to
move
this
forward.
There's
also
I'll
just
touch
on
the
other
one
below
which
is
because
we're
having
such
a
significant
public
engagement
piece
of
our
work
on
langston
boulevard
with
the
langston
boulevard
plan.
There's
staff
brought
this
forward
and
very
much
appreciate
it
as
a
way
to
encourage
that
engagement
and
a
value-add
that
perhaps
the
langston
boulevard
alliance
is
uniquely
best
positioned
to
do
at
this
time.
So
that's
the
latter
of
those
two
paragraphs
thanks.
Thank.
A
You
excellent
appreciate
that
mr
deferenti
and
I
appreciate
the
effort
on
the
ladder
too,
to
reflect
that
this
is
an
example
of
a
community
partner,
doing
work
better
than
staff
could
potentially,
and
so
an
opportunity
for
partnership
is
apt.
The
tree
canopy
study
as
well.
A
I
know
you
spoke
to
when
we
when
we
did
markup
on
thursday,
and
I
appreciated
your
articulation
of
the
expectations
there
right
that
this
is
funding
to
potentially
advance
up
the
work
of
a
tree,
canopy
study,
but
again
would
not
begin
until
after
the
completion
of
the
forestry
natural
resources
plan.
So
we
really
would
be
looking
at
the
latter
half
of
fiscal
2023
and
then
the
final
item
of
guidance,
I'm
going
to
turn
to
is
garvey
to
describe
as
well.
C
Thank
you,
the
support
for
the
developmentally
disabled
population
and
I
think
all
of
us
have
been
aware
of
the
difficulties
that
this
population
and
their
families
have
had
during
cove.
But
everybody's
had
a
hard
time
if
they've
had
a
particularly
difficult
time
and
already
deal
with
difficult
situations,
you
know,
and
we
I
think
it
talked
a
lot
about
issues
with
transportation.
C
C
So
I've
we've
got
here,
allocating
250,
000
and
one-time
funding
to
support
some
some
programs
and
pilots
for
this
for
this
community
and
we
haven't
got
all
gun
all
that
all
the
details
worked
out,
but
the
the
different
areas
where
they're
looking
at
is
reopening
day
programs
here
and
expanding
those
and
planning
an
exploration
to
develop
new,
as
I
said,
expanded
day
programs
and
then
also
looking
at
the
transportation
issue
which
possibly
may
cross
over,
because
I
a
number
of
our
our
folks
who
have
trouble
getting
around
and
are
differently
able
to
having
issues
with
transportation.
C
A
Okay,
so
I
think
that
has
been
moved
seconded
and
described
and
we
can
open
the
floor
for
some
conversation.
I
think
mr
dorsey
questions
or
comments.
H
Thank
you,
madam
sharon.
I
appreciate
the
work
of
all
colleagues
for
working
on
this
level
of
direction.
Mr
kushner,
if
you
can
just
scroll
back
up
to
the
strategic
partnerships
piece
and
mr
deferenti,
I
appreciate
appreciate
your
description
of
this.
I
have
to
say
that
one
thing
I
have
a
little
bit
of
trouble
with
is
the
the
very
last
sentence.
H
The
nature
of
non-profit
organizations
may
be
that
some
of
these
deliverables
that
we've
described
or
alluded
to
in
one
two
and
three
are
going
to
best
be
accomplished
by
existing
staff
with
a
different
allocation
of
their
time
spent
on
a
particular
project,
and
I'm
not
sure
that
this
particular
sentence
marries
with
the
way
a
non-profit
can
best
flexibly
fulfill
what
might
be
their
proposal
to
partner
with
the
county
and,
if
taken
literally
and
precisely,
could
lead
people
to
proposing
projects
that
are
entirely
stood
up
and
run
by
consultants,
even
if
that's
not
necessarily
the
most
efficient.
H
F
I'll
just
I
share
the
sentiment
and-
and
I
I
in
the
spirit
of
trying
to
to
move
this
forward-
I
I
I
I
sort
of
said
you
know
we
might
pass,
but
if
the
focus
is
on
outcomes,
I
think
you
have
a
strong
argument,
and
so
I
just
was
in
place,
because
this
is
one
time
and
because
we
want
to
be
careful,
I
did
not
feel
I
wanted
to
staff
and
there's
fair,
legitimate
concerns
that
other
board
members
others
have,
and
so
I
didn't
feel
like.
G
Okay,
well,
I
mean,
if
I
may
add,
there
is
a
lot
of
flexibility
already
built
in
point
three
of
the
matching
of
the
matching
funding.
Where
you
know.
Basically,
we
support
their
fundraising
and
that's
the
proceeds
of
the
fundraising
they
can.
They
can,
you
know,
use
as
they
as
they
need,
so
that
that's
what
I
would
have
done.
A
Right
I
mean
I
to
me:
there's
there's
no
specificity
around
an
anti-supplementation
clause,
for
example
in
these
I
don't
think,
there's
a
prohibition
on
non-profits
creatively
working
in
their
budgets
to
put
resources
where
they
need
to.
I
think
it's
just
clarifying
that
this
one-time
strategic
funding
pool
should
be
about
projects
and
not
permanent
personnel.
H
I
I
appreciate
that,
but
you
know
if,
for
example,
someone
wanted
to
pursue
three
by
allocating
the
time
of
their
existing
resource
development
individual
taken
literally,
that's
not
that's
not
advised
by
this
guidance,
and
I
just
don't
think
that
we
need
to
be
in
that
level
of
engagement
with
how
they
operate
there.
A
This
is
so
again,
this
is
in
consultation
with
our
staff,
we're
going
to
be
the
ones
actually
executing
it.
So
I
think
that
that
that
to
me
suggests
that
there's
consistency
of
expectation
among
those
who've
helped
author,
this
and
those
who
will
be
fulfilling
the
grand
program.
G
A
If
there's
a
desire
to
move
to
a
mendy
right
right,
if
there's
a
desire
to
move
the
that
that
be
struck
from
the
guidance,
we
can
accept
that
and
take
a
photo.
H
No
like,
like
I
said,
I'm
not
looking
to
wordsmith
here
at
this
time,
I'm
just
hoping
as
we
discuss
with
nonprofits.
We
have
an
interpretation
that
allows
their
best
ideas
to
come
forth
as
opposed
to
a
literal
reading
of
the
last
line,
which
could
be
a
little
bit
restraining
towards
their
best
ideas
that
they
would
propose.
A
I
think
it's
very
important
to
establish
clear
expectations
about
what
this
funding
is
and
isn't,
because
it
is
not
hypothetical.
It
is
absolutely
the
case
that
this
board
has
allocated
one-time
funding
that
has
been
used
for
personnel
in
the
past,
which
puts
our
nonprofits
in
a
challenge
our
partnerships
in
a
challenging
position
and
this
board
in
a
challenging
position.
The
following
fiscal
year.
When
that
one-time
money
is
not
incorporated
in
the
manager's
recommendation
and
it's
perceived
as
a
cut
that
means
they're
going
to
have
to
shed
personnel.
A
One-Time
money
yeah,
if
the
reliance
to
fund
those
folks,
if
the
reliance
to
fund
those
personnel
is
on
these
dollars,
then
yes,
I
am
concerned
about
that.
A
A
H
I
I
don't
need
an
amendment,
but
I'm
trying
to
understand
exactly
what
you're
concerned
with
and
if
it's
new
permanent
personnel,
I
think
we
can
insert
the
word
new.
Otherwise
I
think
this
conversation
is
going
to
be
instructive
for
staff
as
they
engage
with
non-profits
to
really
assess
the
spirit
of
what
to
assess
exactly
what
they're
proposing,
as
opposed
to
its
strict
adherence
to
that.
A
A
Of
whatever
is
proposed,
we
certainly
are
at
their
disposal
to
continue
the
conversation
as
needed
all
right
anything
further,
mr
continues
anything
for
the.
A
Great,
so
with
that,
I
believe
that
we
are
ready
for
a
vote
on
this
item
or
excuse
me
rather
on
the
accompanying
guidance.
G
If
we
have
still
the
on
the
tree
canopy
appropriation,
oh
first
of
all,
something
that
I
want
to
clarify
on
the
650
000
that
we
want
to
make
available
for
a
similarly
to
grand
2.2
program
appropriation.
G
Does
this
mean
that
in
the
grant
2.0
program,
we
have
been
providing
exactly
the
same
amount
to
each
applicant?
Will
this
be
the
case
here
as
well.
F
F
If
there
are
15
different
places
that
qualify.
I
would
want
staff
to
have
the
flexibility
to
to
not
have
precisely
the
same
dollar
amount.
That's
my
view,
but
I'm
not
sure
whether
there's
other
colleagues
have
strong.
The
language
does
certainly
insinuate
that
it
would
be
the
same
precisely.
The
same
dollar
amount
yeah.
F
The
language
colleagues
may
have
different
views,
but
that's
my
view
and
I
don't
think
it
should
be
strictly
done
based
on
budget
or
you
know,
I
don't
know
what
the
appropriate
criteria
would
be,
but
I,
the
part
of
the
spirit
of
this
is
brought
because
of
my
a
little
bit
the
view
that
we
have
had
a
unique
combination
of
cert
circumstances,
the
last
three
years
that
merits
this
one-time
relief.
That
would
be
the
pandemic
and
also
some
inflationary
pressures.
G
Okay,
the
second
question
is
rather
technical,
because
on
the
three
campus
study,
we
would
procure
in
the
language
here
to
specify
which
technology
to
to
use
which
is
lidar
technology,
it
is,
it
is
literally
explicitly
mentioned-
was
that
the
staff's
recommendation
that
it
makes
sense
to
do
that.
This
way.
F
G
Okay,
the
reason
why
I
mentioned
that,
and
I'm
I'm
fine
with
this.
The
reason
why
I
mentioned
that
is
that
there
are
some
other.
You
know
alternative
technologies
we
have
been
doing,
we
have
been
working
and-
and
you
know,
using
lidar
technology
to
do
the
previous
three
cannabis
studies,
and
this
is
a
it's
a
you
know
it's
pretty
good
technology
to
do
that.
The
the
problem
is
that
it's
a
nor
it's
an
enormous
data
set
that
comes
always
out
of
that
and
it's
difficult
to
digest.
G
F
A
Okay,
great
all
right,
unless
there
are
any
other
amendments
or
items
for
discussion,
I
believe
that
we
are
ready
for
a
vote
on
the
guidance
to
accompany
the
budget.
All
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye.
D
A
A
A
The
first
item
is
to
move
the
fiscal
year,
2023
county
budget
resolution
and
appropriations
resolution
and
the
fiscal
2023
year
appropriations
by
adopting
the
fiscal
2023
county
budget
resolution
shown
in
the
staff
report
as
attachment
one
with
one
amendment
that
I
will
speak
to
briefly
and
further
adopt
the
fiscal
year,
2023
county
appropriations
resolution
to
attach
the
staff
report
as
attachment
to
and
further
authorize
the
county
manager
to
negotiate
and
sign
grant
agreements
with
non-profits
that
result
from
fiscal
2023
budget
appropriations
subject
to
approval
by
form
as
by
the
county.
Attorney.
A
With
that
I'd
like
to
make
one
amendment
to
our
markup
from
thursday,
it
was
my
intent
at
the
conclusion
of
our
markup
to
move
the
remaining
balances
that
had
been
balanced.
I
guess
is,
after
all
of
our
ads
in
the
category
of
contingencies
or
contingent
to
land
acquisition,
so
that
would
be
again
essentially.
This
motion
proposes
to
adopt
the
markup
agreed
upon
on
thursday,
with
the
addition
of
moving
seven
five,
two
or
one
million
seven
hundred
and
fifty
two
thousand
one
hundred
and
seventy
six
dollars
from
contingent
to
land
acquisition.
A
G
A
A
So
excuse
me,
one
dollar
and
1.3
cents
per
100
of
assessed
value
using
the
advertisement
shown
in
the
staff
reporters
attachment
one
that
we
further
adopt
the
calendar
year:
2022
commercial,
real
estate,
tax
rate
for
transportation
initiatives
at
the
current
tax
rate
of
12.5
cents
per
100,
using
the
advertisement
shown
in
the
staff
report
as
attachment
one
and
further
adopt
this
calendar
year.
2022
sanitary
district
tax
for
storm
water
management
at
the
current
rate
of
1.7
cents
per
100
of
assessed
value
using
the
resolution
shown
in
the
staff
report
is
attachment
1..
N
A
Any
opposed
okay
that
carries
unanimously,
and
I
also
move
further,
that
we
adopt
a
calendar
year,
2022
general
personal
property,
tax
rate
of
five
dollars
per
100
of
assessed
value
using
the
resolution
shown
in
the
staff
report
and
a
personal
property
tax
of
one
dollar
and
1.3
cents
per
100
of
assessed
value
to
public
service
corporations.
Using
the
attached
resolution.
A
I
further
recommend
that
we
adopt
the
resolution
that
is
shown
in
the
staff
report,
concurring
that
the
commissioner
of
the
revenue
should
use
an
assessment
ratio
of
88
for
calendar
year,
2022
personal
property
tax
assessments
for
the
classification
of
cert
of
certain
vehicles
and
that,
finally,
we
adopted
calendar
year
2022
resolution
setting
that
the
methodology
should
be
that
the
methodology
that
shall
be
utilized
in
distributing
the
state's
block
grants,
including
additional
relief
provided
to
qualifying
clean
view
vehicles,
fuel
vehicles
at
50
of
the
tax
bill
from
three
thousand
one
dollars
to
twenty
thousand
of
the
value
and
the
additional
relief
provided
to
qualifying
vehicles
equipped
to
transport
the
disabled.
A
G
A
And
that
complicated
amendment
serves
to
effectuate
what
we
discussed
on
thursday,
which
is
the
relief
that
we
are
proposing
in
its
form
to
of
of
a
reduced
assessment
ratio
to
to
offer
some
relief
from
the
instability
and
spikes
in
the
car
valuation
market,
which
will
be
explained
to
those
who
receive
their
bills
later
in
the
year.
Yeah.
And
this.
C
A
You
for
special,
letting
people
know
that
exactly
yeah.
Thank
you
so
that
that
resolution
that
assesses
the
personal
property
tax
in
an
88
assessment
ratio
will
expire
at
the
end
of
the
calendar
year.
So
we
will
need
to
revisit
this
issue
during
the
fiscal
2024
deliberations
if
the
vehicle
market
remains
as
inflationary
as
it's
been.
So
thank
you.
It's
good
clarification.
Okay,
unless
there's
any
further
discussion.
Oh
mr
defranco.
F
D
A
Opposed
okay
that
carries
unanimously
for
emotion
regarding
serious
emotions
regarding
our
business
improvement
districts.
I'm
going
to
turn
to
mr
dorsey.
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
So
I'd
like
to
move
items,
42
d
e
and
f.
They
are
the
calendar
year,
2022
tax
rates
for
the
boston,
business,
improvement,
district,
the
national
landing
business
improvement
district
and
the
roslin
business
improvement
district.
Those
rates
are
set
at
four
and
a
half
cents
per
100
of
assist
value
for
boston.
Four
point:
three
cents
per
one
hundred
dollars
of
assessed:
value
for
national
landing
and
7.8
cents
per
100
dollars
of
assessed
value
for
roslyn.
A
Okay,
in
that
event,
all
of
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed;
okay,
those
carry
unanimously
and
regarding
the
household,
solid
waste
rate.
I
will
again
turn
to
mr
dorsey
for
a
motion.
H
Okay-
and
I
would
like
to
move
that
the
county
board
adopt
a
that.
We
adopt
the
proposed
amendment
to
chapter
10,
article
1
of
the
code
of
arlington
county,
to
increase,
I'm
sorry
to
decrease
the
household,
solid
waste
rate
from
one
318.61
to
three
hundred
and
seven
dollars
and
eighty
nine
cents,
which
is
a
net
reduction
of
ten
dollars.
And
seventy
two
cents.
A
Great
any
discussion,
no
all
right,
all
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
any
opposed.
Okay
that
carries
unanimously.
Mr
dufrendi,
could
you
offer
us
a
motion
regarding
the
water
and
sewer
rates
and
the
des
development
related
fees.
F
Sure
happy
to
madam
chair.
So
with
respect
to
h,
I
move
that
we
adopt
the
amendment
to
ch
chapter
26
of
the
arlington
county
code.
The
utilities
ordinance
attachment
one
of
the
staff
report
to
increase
water
and
sewer
rates
to
become
effective
july
1st
2022.
F
With
respect
to
item
I
this
is
department
of
environmental
services,
development
related
fees.
I
move
that
we
increase
the
department
of
environmental
services,
development
and
related
fees
in
the
area
of
street
development
and
construction
erosion
and
sediment
control
and
the
chesapeake
bay
preservation
ordinance
by
an
inflationary
indicator
of
four
percent
effective
july
1
2022..
I
also
move
the
county
manager's
recommendation
with
respect
to
subdivisions
that
we
adopt
in
inflationary
and
and
also
plant
review
and
public
improvement
bond
administration
fees.
D
A
Any
opposed,
okay,
those
two
carry
unanimously.
I
think
I
had
saddled
you
with
jnk
as
well.
F
Sure
happy
to
move
j,
which
also
relates
to
development
fees,
a
different
different
variation
of
development
fees
and
then
k
which
relates
to
department
of
parks,
recreation
fees.
So,
specifically
with
respect
to
jay,
I
move
that
we
adopt
a
new
fee
for
the
review
of
landscape
plans
for
one
and
two
family
dwellings.
F
Technical
corrections
such
as
phase
development
site
plan
amendments
and
site
plan,
resubmission
fees
by
an
inflationary
increase
of
four
percent
and
other
changes
to
the
department
of
community
planning,
housing
and
developments,
development
fund
fees,
including
the
department
of
environmental
services,
development
related
fees,
except,
as
noted,
has
set
forth
an
attachment.
A
and
b
of
the
staff
report
effective
july
1
2022,
that's
item
j.
With
respect
to
k,
I
moved
that
we
had
there's
a
series
of
fees.
I
moved
related
to
the
department
department
of
parks,
recreation
they're
in
the
staff
report.
A
Great
that's
been
moved.
Those
two
have
been
moved
and
seconded.
Is
there
any
further
discussion
seeing
none
all
those
in
favor?
Please
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed,
okay,
those
carry
unanimously.
Thank
you,
mr
deferenti.
We'll
move
now
to
the
parks
and
recreation
field
fund
and
maybe
the
emergency
medical
services,
fees,
transport,
mileage
and
telehealth
ms
garvey.
If
you'd
like
to
do
those,
and
then
I
think
you
can.
C
Find
and
I
have
ann
as
well-
I
think
yeah
yeah-
and
this
is
actually
follow
on
to
what
mr
d
franti
did.
So
you
set
the
fees
and
now
we're
doing
the
structure
seems
to
me.
Maybe
we
should
have
done
the
other
way
around,
but
that
doesn't
matter
so
anyway.
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
approve
the
amended
procedures
and
new
fee
structure
for
the
field
fund
in
the
board
report
dated
march
21st
2022
a
second
could
I
speak
to
it,
a
tiny
bit
sure
yeah
yeah,
we
I
mean
we
have.
C
We've
got
96
fields
and
that's
a
lot
of
fields
to
take
care
of,
and
a
study
showed
that
we
are
way
behind.
Our
folks
are
handling
way
more
fields
than
most
places
around
in
in
the
region,
in
fact,
just
about
anywhere
else,
so
this
will
add
to
maintenance
staff
and
and
and
hopefully
help
improve
the
the
the
the
condition
of
the
fields
we
hear
about
that
a
lot
and
then
it's
the
first.
C
We
changed
the
fees,
but
this
is
the
first
change
in
the
feast
structure
since
it
was
established
in
in
2011,
and
so
that
seemed
like
a
good
time
to
do
that.
So
we
have
changed
that
structure
and
that
people
can
read
more
if
they'd
like
to.
I
think
I
won't
say
any
more
about
it,
but
I
think
it's
a
good
thing
to
do
and
happy
to
vote
on
it
now.
C
That
carries
unanimously
okay,
yeah
and
then
the
next
one
I
have
is
to
adopt.
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
adopt
the
fee
increase
for
the
fy
for
fy
23
for
the
fire
department's
emergency
medical
services,
ems
transportation,
mileage
and
telehealth.
As
per
attachment.
One
of
the
board
report
dated
march
29,
2022.
C
sure
it's
been
seconded
and
I'll
speak
to
it
just
a
tiny
bit.
You
know
everything
costs
have
gone
up
and
we
need
to.
We
have
not.
The
last
fee
increase
was
in
fy,
17.
C
insurance
typically
handles
transportation
in
our
emergency
vehicles,
and
sometimes
individuals
are
built
directly
and
we
sort
of
want
to
reassure
people
that
anyone
is
having
trouble
paying.
We
work
with
them
and
no
one
should
suffer
financial
hardship
because
of
transport.
So
if
you
really
need
emergency
help
call
despite
the
changing.
A
C
All
right
this
one,
I
suppose
we
may
have
some
discussion
about,
but
anyway
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
approve
the
proposed
fy
2023
play
plan
pay
plan
as
set
forth
in
the
attachments
one
to
six
of
the
board
report
dated
april
22nd,
2022
and
I'll
just
speak
to
it
a
little
bit
and
then
invite
colleagues
just
say
more.
This
reflects
the
changes
that
were
made.
C
You
know
we
had
a
lot
of
discussion
and
obviously
the
the
compensation
for
our
employees
has
been
a
major
major
issue
for
us
and
I'm
pleased
we're
able
to
take
it.
This
is
a
a
big
step
forward
and,
as
I
say,
we've
had
quite
a
bit
of
discussion
about
it:
5.5
no
5.5
percent,
I
believe
for
our
general
employees,
and
it
also
helps
our
public
safety
adjusting
the
pay
ranges
that
are
in
there.
Also.
C
I
will
mention
that
it
increases
the
board
salaries
and
at
this
point
it
would
put
the
chair
at
83
000
for
13
and
16
cents,
apparently,
and
our
members
at
77,
648
and
24
cents.
That's
an
increase
of
about
20
000..
C
We've
had
a
lot
of
discussion
with
folks
about
it,
I'm
happy
to
talk
about
it
more,
but
I
think
it's
really
important
that
pretty
much
anybody,
who's
kind
of
qualified
and
wants
to
run
is
able
to
run
and
right
now
I
think,
there's
really
a
fight,
and
every
year
it's
gotten
harder
and
harder
for
people
to
afford
it.
I've
talked
to
far
too
many
people
who,
I
think
would
make
great
county
board
members,
and
they
tell
me
I
simply
can't
afford
to
do
it.
C
F
Sure,
thank
you,
ms
garvey,
for
bringing
this
forward,
and
I
just
want
to
be
clear.
My
view
is
that
for
a
locality
that
is
approaching,
240
000
people,
the
job
of
being
a
board
member,
is
a
full-time
job.
There's
been
some
analysis
in
the
past
as
to
the
number
of
hours,
sometimes
it's
50
or
60
hours
per
week,
and
sometimes
it's
35,
but
I
think
this
is
a
full-time
job
and
I
think,
irrespective
of
your
policy
views,
we
should
see
it
that
way.
F
I
just
the
other
point,
and
the
only
other
point
I
wanted
to
make
is
that
I
couldn't
agree
more
with
the
concept
that
everybody
should
be
able
to
serve.
We
should
not
have
this
is
not
the
virginia
200
years
ago.
We
should
have
a
county
board
where
you
can
make
a
living
off
of
serving
in
this
role.
That's
my
view,
because
I
think
that's
the
way
we'll
have
the
best
representative
board
that
can
make
decisions
that
serve
the
whole
community.
F
A
Thanks
and
for
my
part
I'll
just
note,
you
know
we
had
a
quite
a
bit
of
discussion
about
two
years
ago.
Those
who
follow
the
machinations.
The
board
know
that
we
are
restricted
by
law.
We
can
only
raise
the
salary
cap
for
board
members
in
the
year.
The
two
board
members
up
for
re-election.
A
So
in
2019
we
had
quite
a
bit
of
conversation,
put
a
survey
out
to
the
community
and
generally
reached
the
consensus
that
we
thought
it
would
be
appropriate
to
get
to
a
point
where
board
members
made
100
of
the
area.
Meeting
income
for
a
one
member
household,
I
believe
was
that
was
the
benchmark.
The
the
idea
there
being
that
board
members
ought
to
make
not
more
than
the
average
arlingtonian,
but
not
less
either.
So
this
would
get
us,
I
think,
about
half
of
the
way
there.
A
I
believe
this
is
roughly
shakes
out
to
about
a
board
member
making
80
of
the
area
meeting
income
for
the
house,
a
household
of
one,
so
it's
sort
of
along
that
journey.
You
know,
I
think
I
have
had
some
discomfort
with
this
over
the
years.
I
think
what
ultimately
has
persuaded
me
to
support
this
idea
is
sort
of
depersonalizing
it
and
the
recognition
that
it's
actually
not
about
my
salary.
It's
about
a
board
member's
salary.
A
One
of
the
things
that
has
frankly
been
most
persuasive
to
me
is
the
advocacy
we
have
gotten
from
people
who
would
very
much
like
to
see
somebody
else
in
these
seats
advocating
for
higher
salaries
and
the
recognition,
as
my
colleagues
have
said,
that
the
the
the
fact
that
this
is
a
full-time
job
that
does
not
pay
like
a
full-time
job
has
been
an
obstacle
to
the
representation
of
different
views.
A
So
I
hope
this
will
make
contests
for
board
seats
competitive
in
the
future,
both
in
terms
of
who's
running,
but
also
in
terms
of
who
conceives
of
being
able
to
run.
So
I
really
appreciate
that
the
many
folks
who
have
weighed
in
not
only
throughout
this
budget
process,
but
but
indeed
in
that
conversation
that
we
began
two
years
ago
and
then
was
of
course
superseded
by
the
pandemic.
It
gives
me
some
some
comfort,
although
I
do
squirm
a
little
bit
still.
A
I
think
it
will
always
be
a
little
uncomfortable
to
have
to
vote
on
one's
own
salary,
but
some
comfort
that
this
is
generally
consistent
with
the
desire
of
the
community,
even
those
again
community
members
who
might
like
to
see
different
board
members,
at
least
recognizing,
that
this
is
a
full-time
job
and
ought
to
be
paid
as
such.
Colleagues.
For
other
comments,
mr
karentonis,
oh.
G
Thank
you
so
somebody
who
really
struggles
a
lot
to
balance
the
jobs
one
one
full
time
in
another
half
time
so
150
percent
it
it
has
become
really
very,
very
difficult
to
to
do
that.
It
is
very
difficult,
there's
an
additional
if
I
mentioned
to
that,
not
only
the
accessibility
of
this
of
this
office.
G
It's
also
the
fact
that
you
know
many
of
us
will
find
work
here
in
arlington
and
therefore
or
with
entities
or
or
employers
who
will
have
eventually
business
before
the
county
board,
and
so
you
know,
I
find
myself
in
a
very
uncomfortable
situation
to
excuse
myself
every
time
on
on
on
art,
night
item,
11
or
12.
This
is
has
been
established
now,
every
every
you
know
three
or
four
times
a
year.
This
is
really
not
you
know
helpful,
so
it's
not
helpful
for
the
board
as
a
whole.
G
It's
not
helpful
for
anybody,
so
the
more
we
move
towards
a
situation
where
a
you
know,
acceptable
level
of
compensation
is
provided
and
acceptable
doesn't
mean,
and
I
agree
with
you
that
doesn't
mean
a
full-time
job
when
in
an
office
doesn't
mean
you
know
any
any
open-ended
full-time
quote-unquote
compensation
just
means
an
average
acceptable,
decent
compensation
which
can
can
be
defended
in
front
of
the
taxpayer
in
this
case,
and
I
think
that
the
taxpayer
has
come
to
a
point
to
a
point
where,
where
they
they
accept
and
understand
that
this
had
to
happen
at
some
point
is
a
is
a
small.
B
H
I'm
going
to
make
sure
no
one
assumes
anything
by
my
silence
on
this
and
to
just
you
know,
harken
back
to
2019.
I
remember,
and
scott
mccaffrey
will
probably
remind
me
at
the
start
of
my
year
being
chair.
I
I
said
that
this
was
an
issue
that
I
didn't
want
any
part
of.
H
It
wasn't
part
of
my
agenda
for
what
I
wanted
to
accomplish,
and
you
know
thanks
to
ms
garvey
for
pressing
the
cause,
and
we
did
some
great
analysis
then,
which
arrived
at
the
point
that
you
described
miss
crystal
for
setting
the
cap
to
adjust
to
median
individual
income
earners
in
arlington,
something
that
I
do
believe
is
fundamentally
the
right
policy
and
really,
once
you
get
past
the
discomfort
of
having
making
a
decision
that
impacts
your
own
earnings.
H
It
really
is,
as
you
describe
so
well,
this
is
not
about
what
we
get
paid.
It's.
What
about
it's?
What
board?
It's?
What
board
members
should
be
paid,
and
I
fully
lean
into
the
idea
that,
if
we're
going
to
be
responsible
to
the
future
of
this
community,
this
is
a
necessary
vote
to
take,
because
it
is
not
about
us.
H
We
are
temporary
occupants,
but
setting
the
standard
that,
hopefully,
will
be
reaffirmed
by
future
boards
who
have
an
opportunity
to
ensure
that
cap
moves
in
a
way
that
does
allow
for
a
broader
group
of
people
to
serve
is
absolutely
important
and
once
we
think
about
it
in
those
terms,
I
think
the
discomfort,
at
least
for
me,
washes
away
a
fair
amount.
Thank
you.
A
Great,
thank
you,
okay,
and
I
think
we
are
ready
for
a
vote
on
the
pay
plan
which
again,
as
missouri
noted
in
speaking,
the
motion
includes
the
salaries
of
thousands
of
employees
of
arlington
county,
not
just
the
board
members,
but
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
that.
A
Okay,
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion,
please
say:
aye
aye
any
opposed,
okay
that
carries
unanimously
and
mr
karen
donuts,
if
you
could
speak
to
item
o
or
make
a
motion
for
item
o
and
p
and
be
grateful.
G
Here
so
the
this
is,
these
are
two
lesser
items,
but
at
least
on
the
first
one
I
demo,
we
heard
a
lot
of
advocacy.
We
heard
a
lot
of
affected
individuals
and
artists
testifying.
G
So
this
is
the
increased
lee
arts
center
still
called
liars
center
use
fees
administered
by
art
and
economic
development.
The
the
motion
is
to
adopt
the
increased
lee
arts
center
use
fees
administrator
by
the
arlington
economic
development
has
set
forth
the
schedule
in
the
board
report.
I
may
I
don't
know,
is
there
a
second
first
person
so
as
as
you
remember,
this
was
a
topic
that
we
heard
a
lot
of
advocacy.
The
fees
have
gone,
have
gone.
G
Up
they've
almost
doubled
the
fees,
so
this
the
the
philosophy
here
is
to
cover
the
cost
of
the
program,
while
the
the
liar
center
is,
is
kind
of
in
a
in
a
limbo
still
operating,
but
with
a
with
a
lot
of
caveats
and
a
lot
of
questions
that
haven't
been
cleared
yet
about
its
more
long-term
future.
G
So
we
haven't,
as
I
understand
and
from
any
conversation
we
haven't,
found
a
way
to
provide
relief
there,
either
financial
or
by
allowing
to
to
increase
the
membership
of
that
program.
So
at
this
point,
the
recommendation
of
the
manager
which
I
am
moving
right
now
is
to
proceed
with
the
higher
fees.
Thank
you.
F
G
Everything
is
really
contingent
on
what
what
the
future
of
this
building
and
this
facility
will
look
like,
which
we'll
have
the
opportunity
to
discuss
that
in
about
a
month.
C
I
Yes,
there's
so
for
all
our
parks
and
recreation
programs,
there
are
opportunities
available
for
people.
It's
based
on
income
to
receive
a
free
reduction.
C
Yeah
no
thank
you.
I
mean
so
that
the
fees
have
been
have
increased
quite
a
bit,
but
we
those
who
have
you
know,
income
issues,
can
still
participate.
All
this
counts
apply.
A
A
very
good
point
absolutely
because
we
did
hear
a
desire
from
some
of
those
who
spoke
during
the
session
that
this
be
looked
at,
as
is
everything
in
our
budget
through
an
equity
lens
and
if
cost
is
an
obstacle
to
participation
for
a
lower
income
artist,
and
we
look
forward
to
applying
those
sliding
scale
programs.
D
G
But
it's
you
know
if,
if
you
allow
the
expression,
the
cutest
one,
so
this
is
an
elimination
of
a
fee,
so
this
is
about
the
it's.
The
motion
is
to
adopt
the
proposed
amendment
to
chapter
2
animals
and
fall
section.
2-12
licensing
of
dogs
of
the
code
of
arlington
county
virginia
to
eliminate
the
fee
for
a
duplicate
dog
license
tag.
As
everybody
knows,
this
is
a
one
dollar
expense
that
is
really
very
annoying
to
those
who
have
to
pay
that.
A
C
A
So
I
think
yes
well
put,
I
don't
think,
there's
any
further
discussion.
All
of
those
in
favor
of
this
motion,
please
say:
aye
aye.
D
A
A
To
make
comments,
mr
differential,
would
you
like
to
start.
F
Sure
I'm
happy
to
to
start.
I'm
sure
that
we
just
took
a
number
of
actions
and
the
big
picture,
as
I
see
it,
is
that
this
budget
continues
our
recovery
by
investing
in
our
workforce,
our
public
servants,
and
it
helps
moves
move
us
toward
the
renewal
that
we
need.
What
do
I
mean
by
that?
F
I
think
that
the
supply
supply
chain
issues
that
we're
seeing
are
a
piece
of
recovering
from
the
pandemic,
and
while
we
have
a
low
unemployment
rate
in
the
community,
we
still
are
recovering
and
that's
very
true
for
our
workforce,
who
stepped
up
in
ways
that
are
too
numerous
to
count
to
serve
over
the
past
two
plus
years,
two
years,
two
months
during
the
course
of
this
pandemic.
F
So
compensation
is
a
key
central
piece
of
this
budget
and
it's
what's
guided
my
thinking
as
we
approach
this
budget,
so
making
sure
that
the
increases
in
valuing
our
staff
as
a
whole,
our
department
of
human
services,
our
first
responders,
our
our
employees,
who
have
kept
us
safe
and
worked
so
hard
to
do
it.
That
is
at
the
heart
of
why
I
support
the
budget
and
the
numerous
items
that
we
have.
F
We
have
worked
on,
I'm
very
pleased
and
grateful
for
the
progress
we
made
with
respect
to
climate
and
addressing
this
office
of
climate
coordination
and
policy.
I
think
that
will
help
our
existing
team
and
I'm
grateful
for
the
manager
for
the
leadership
on
that.
I
want
to
note
again
the
housing
positions
with
respect
to
the
quality
of
existing
housing
units.
Existing
calves
is
critical,
as
well
as
the
resources
that
will
help
us
as
we
we
address
barcroft
and
the
development
that
will
proceed
there.
F
Our
schools
are,
are
valuing
their
staff
as
well,
which
I
think
is
appropriate.
It
has
been
a
very
difficult
time
to
be
an
educator
or
work
in
our
public
schools
which
have
been
for
so
long,
the
heartbeat
of
arlington
and
it's
just
been
a
very
difficult
past
two
years.
So
those
are
key
pieces
of
this
and
key
pieces
of
the
work
grateful
for
the
other
specific
amendments
that
seek
to
address
important
priorities
like
our
partnerships.
F
The
tree
study
that
jail
analysis
of
medical
peace
and
the
non-profits
there's
much
much
more
to
do
and
building
a
systemically
equitable
community
is
going
to
take
a
lot
more.
But
I
I
also
won't
say
that
this
budget
is
is
exactly
as
I
would
have
written
every
little
thing.
It's
not
perfect
from
any
per
any
one
person's
point
of
view,
and
there
will
be
those
who
who
might
have
critiques.
H
Thank
you,
mr
madam
chair
and
mr
d
ferrante,
mr
deferenti,
you
know
rarely
are
budgets
ever
perceived
by
anyone
as
perfect,
as
you
well
noted,
and
in
an
environment
where
we
were
not
able
to
allocate
and
respond
to
every
request
or
design
every
element
of
a
program
according
to
some
of
our
interested
parties,
best
intentions,
I
do
believe
this
budget
meets
the
criteria
of
being
both
responsible
and
responsive,
and
I
applaud
everyone
who
worked
very
hard
on
it.
H
Very
important,
as
I
believe
personally,
that
this
will
have
a
very
long
tail
and
will
reverberate
long
into
the
future
in
needs
that
are
known
and
ones
that
have
yet
to
manifest,
but
we've
also
at
the
same
time
been
able
to
ensure
that
service
delivery
throughout
all
of
arlington
county's
government
is
at
a
level
that
our
residents
have
come
to
expect,
and
that
is
a
ray
of
hope.
H
In
light
of
our
looking
toward
the
post-pandemic
world,
we've
also
been
able
to
make
some
good
strategic
investments
in
deferred
priorities
deferred
for
good
reasons,
as
we
were
constrained
in
our
funding
over
the
past
couple
of
years
and
concerned
about
the
worse
happening.
Fortunately,
those
things
didn't
happen
to
arlington
and
were
able
to
move
forward
with
with
staffing
up
and
delivering
in
program
areas
that
were
deferred
at
the
same
time.
H
We're
able
to
make
some
new
increase
in
investments
in
areas
that
are
absolutely
essential
for
arlington
to
continue
to
be
the
kind
of
place
that
its
residents
are
proud
of
and
its
stakeholders
are
attracted
to
with
sustainability.
The
new
office
of
climate
coordination
and
policy,
along
with
the
one
million
dollar
impact
fund,
is
incredibly
important.
H
Thrilled
that
we're
able
to
make
significant
steps
forward
with
equity
standing
up
and
sufficiently
resourcing
our
community
oversight
board
to
enhance
trust
with
our
law
enforcement
community,
while
also
taking
some
steps
forward
to
demonstrate
a
commitment
to
delivering
equity
in
areas
that
are
suffering
from
significant
disparities.
On
the
mental
health
side.
H
The
investments
in
crisis
intervention
and
licensed
clinicians
to
serve
the
growing
need
in
our
community
is
an
important
step
forward
to
make
making
sure
that
we're
keeping
everyone
as
healthy
as
we
possibly
can,
and
looking
at
all
dimensions
of
health
thrilled
that
we're
able
to
fully
fund
our
schools
and
appreciate
their
partnership
in
being
able
to
deliver
on
some
of
their
key
priorities
without
putting
an
additional
strain
on
resources.
Beyond
the
revenue
sharing
agreement
that
we
have
we're,
also
able
to
fund
our
regional
commitments.
H
No
small
thing
in
this
area,
where
other
communities
are
needing
to
take
a
finer
look
at
what
they
do
on
a
regional
on
a
bilateral
and
a
regional
basis
and,
of
course,
compensation
which
has
been
alluded
to.
So
I
won't
go
on
at
length.
But
when
we
do
the
public's
business
we
we
cannot
do
that
effectively
without
really
good
public
servants,
and
you
know
for
far
too
long
public
servants
compared
to
their
private
sector
counterparts,
make
sacrifices
that
often
go
under
appreciated
in
the
private
sector.
H
H
I
recognize
that
all
of
this
comes
with.
You
know
the
challenge
that
is
before
us
every
year
when
we
set
a
tax
rate
that
doesn't
grow.
H
Unfortunately,
it's
just
not
possible,
given
the
nature
of
the
real
estate
valuation,
and
it's
also
a
challenge
given
that
in
the
commonwealth
of
virginia
localities
are
primarily
primarily
reliant
on
real
estate
tax
rates
to
fund
local
government.
I
wish
that
would
change,
and
I
was
encouraged
to
hear
that
the
civ
fed
is
interested.
H
Maybe
in
doing
some
work
to
look
at
some
statewide
advocacy
to
see
whether
or
not
we
can
come
up
with
some
proposals
on
how
we
can
fund
local
government
to
be
less
reliant
on
real
estate
tax
rates,
understanding
that
volatility
and
stressors
that
that
can
put
on
people
whose
incomes
may
not
necessarily
have
kept
up.
So
with
that
pleased
to
reach
the
end
of
another
budget
season,
one
in
which
I
think
we
can
be
proud
of
the
work
that
we've
done
for
the
arlington
community.
H
As
always,
I
thank
mr
schwartz,
but
most
specifically
ms
meredith,
mr
stevenson,
and
emily.
Why
in
the
world,
am
I
forgetting
your
last
name
hughes?
Thank
you
at
this
moment
for
all
of
your
incredible
work.
I
I'm
just
amazed
at
how
you
all
are
just
so
calm
in
the
face
of
what
is
just
a
flurry
of
of
activity
every
year
and
the
added
complexity
with
the
personal
property
tax
rate
this
year.
You
all
are
the
essence
of
professionalism
and
unflappability.
G
Thomas
thank
you.
I
should.
I
should
start
by
thanking
you
for
all
this
and
to
congratulate
you
to
the
fiscal
year
24
budget
season
that
has
already
begun
right.
We,
we
voted
already
in
fiscal
year
23.
indeed-
and
madam
chair
also
for
your
work.
This
it's
often
not
appreciated
how
much
work
the
chair
and
the
vice
chair.
Putting
into
this
and
you're,
the
conductor
of
a
huge
orchestra
of
of
of
you
know,
demands,
and
I
believe
that
this
this
was
a
very
successful
outcome
here.
G
For
all
the
reasons
that
have
been
mentioned
before
I
agree
with
mr
deferenti.
This
is
a
this
is
the
first
budget
in
the
first
year
that
looks
like
an
exit
from
the
emergency
modus,
but-
and
I
agree
with
mr
dorsey
that
we
don't
really
know
where
what
the
tale
of
this
is
we
have
suffered
since
we
were
talking
about
tax
rates.
G
It's
indeed,
so
that
a
an
increasing
part
of
our
deliverables
that
have
to
be
of
very
high
quality
and
that
are
framed
at
the
level
of
expectation
that
is
appropriate
for
a
for
a
developed
and
mature
community,
like
the
one
that
we
are
very
vocal,
also
community,
that
this
is
this.
This
this
level
of
expectation
is,
is
right
now,
mostly
served
by
an
increase
in
the
property
tax
that
comes
from
residential
properties,
while
our
commercial
sector
has
been
relatively
flat
in
delivery
right
now,
and
this
is
not
unrelated
to
the
pandemic.
G
So
I
do
believe-
and
if
there
is
a
takeaway
for
me
and
for
everybody,
is
that
it
is
it
really
matters
to
pay
attention
to
how
our
commercial
sector
will
be
functioning
and
delivering
in
the
future.
That's
very
very
important.
G
We
we
need
more
performance
there
in
order
to
balance
the
you
know,
the
traditional
arlington
way,
which
used
to
be
50
50,
and
it's
not
anymore
so,
and
if,
if
there
are
things
that
I
am
specifically
very
pleased
to
see
materializing,
I
do
believe
that
we
have
a
new
climate
direction
here.
It
is
a
small
amount
of
money
that
we
have
appropriated,
but
the
policy
backing
of
that
is
significant,
I
believe
not
only
have
is
the
air
program
you
know
has
our
our
support
and
backing.
G
Also
the
the
new
office
of
clement
response
and
policy
is,
is
a
very
promising
position,
married
with
the
one
million
dollar
of
discretionary
funding
that
the
county
manager
will
have
and
will
will
come
very
handy
when
we
will
be
discussing
the
implementation
firm
framework
for
the
community
energy
plan.
G
This,
I
very
much
hope
I
look
forward
this
to
be
a
very
qualitative
step
forward
in
in
upping
our
game
in
in
converting
us
into
a
leader
in
a
place
that
just
sends
the
right
message
that
we
take
claim
at
the
climate
emergency
very
very
seriously,
and
we
are
ready
to
make
you
know
difficult
decisions
to
move
towards
a
more
decarbonized
arlington,
a
greener
arlington,
after
all,
with
the
help
of
everybody
and
touching
indeed,
also
in
involving
and
engaging
also
the
19th
famous
94
percent
of
general
society,
and
not
only
our
own
government,
so
on
housing.
G
G
The
barker
of
deal
is
just
one,
the
most
important,
but
just
one
one
instance
of
that,
but
also
the
entire
discussion
around
the
serrano
and
what
we
mean
when
we
say
when
we
say:
quality,
affordable
housing,
stable,
affordable
housing
that
supports,
indeed,
our
equity,
our
most
vulnerable
electronics
in
our
vision
of
equity
in
arlington,
and
I
think
that
the
buzzard
has
has
appropriated
the
the
financial
means
to
support
this,
and
thank
you,
mr
different,
specifically
for
working
so
hard
on
this.
G
I
do
think
that
there
are
still
areas
to
improve
like
in
the
fair
housing
arena,
et
cetera,
but
the
seeds
are
already
there
and
I
believe
that
the
capacity
with
with
the
department
of
with
cphd
will
be
able
to
bring
us
forward
there
as
well.
I
was
very
pleased
also
about
the
significant
successive
improvements
and
investments
we
didn't.
We
did
in
mental
health.
G
I
just
remember
a
couple
of
when
my
first
budget,
how
impossible
certain
appropriations
have
seemed
like,
for
example,
the
first
psychosis
episode
response,
and
now
it
has
been
possible
and
that's
a
huge
step
forward.
So
all
in
all,
I
do
think
that
this
is
a
balanced
budget.
Is
a
budget
that
this
reflects
our
values
as
a
whole
and,
most
importantly,
reflects
our
trust
in
good
governance,
and
this
trust
is
supported
is
what
is
at
the
base
of
the
whole
discussion
about
compensation
for
public
employees.
G
I
do
think
that
we
saw
we
we
had
to
to
discuss
very
tough
challenges.
We
have
seen
departments
losing
a
lot
of
personnel
not
being
able
to
staff
the
the
services
that
we
asked
them
to
provide,
and
I
think
that
we
made
the
right
decisions
with
with
you
know,
with
significant
improvement
in
the
compensation
of
our
public
employees.
G
I
trust
that
this
will
bring
us
forward
that
this
will
improve
our
staffing
levels
and
that
will
you
know,
support
the
services
that
we
haven't
been
able
to
to
support,
because
we
just
couldn't
staff
them
appropriately,
and
that
starts
with
with
public
safety,
which
has
been
really
at
the
brink
and
mental
health
response
that
I've
mentioned
before
so
again.
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
this
work
and
I
look
forward
to
implementing
the
budget
now.
C
You
so
I
think,
as
I've
said
to
all
of
you
at
times
this
just
feels
different
to
me
this
year
now
christian
said:
libby,
it's
just
because
the
past
two
years
have
been
so
strange.
We've
all
forgotten
what
a
regular
budget
year
feels
like
there's
something
to
that,
but
I
also
do
think
it's
different.
In
the
past
we
used
to
have
we
spent
hours
listening
to
housing
advocates
and
the
housing
advocates
were
certainly
here,
but
we've
really,
I
think,
stepped
up
the
game
in
housing
a
lot.
C
So
this
time
now
we're
hearing
from
environmental
advocates
and
that's
what
sort
of
it's
just
it's
interesting
to
see
how
things
are
changing.
I
think
the
national
narrative
has
been
helpful
to
us
because
everybody
knows
what
problem
the
environment's
in
and
you
don't
have
to
persuade
people
that
we
need
to
do
something
about
the
environment
same
with.
Actually
our
employees,
it
used
to
be
trying
to
increase
pay
when
I
was
on
the
school
board
for
teachers,
so
you'd
get
pushed
back,
and
why
should
the
public
employees
get
a
pay?
C
I
don't
get
a
paper
and
nobody's
really
said
that
now,
because
they
know
that
we're
all
in
trouble,
it's
it's
our
employees
on
which
we
depend,
and
we
can't
we
can
say
all
the
wonderful
words
we
want
you
up
here,
but
if
we
don't
have
people
that
do
the
work,
it
doesn't
happen
and
we've
got
to
treat
those
people
well.
So
this
feels
like
a
real
transition.
C
I
think
a
lot
of
seeds
are
being
planted
and
I'm
not
going
to
enumerate
them
because
I
just
sort
of
started
developing
this
idea
and
I'd
talked
far
too
long,
but
I'm
just
feeling
we're
changing
a
lot
just
actually
the
presentation
we
had
from
the
manager
on
changing
how
we
do
our
zoning,
you
know
and
the
permitting
stuff
I
mean,
I
really
think
we're
making
some
great
changes.
So,
thanks
for
staff,
thank
you,
mr
manager,
putting
together
a
really
good
budget.
I
think
it
really
was
good.
C
I
think
that's
part
of
the
reason
we
didn't
get
a
whole
lot
of
people
coming
to
talk
to
us
and
then
at
the
end
we
all
started
to
realize.
Oh,
my
there's
this
one-time
money
and
there's
this
one
thing
I
think
the
last
48
hours
have
been
a
little
tough
on
everybody,
especially
our
staff.
Thank
you
so
very
much
lots
of
calculations
and
back
and
forth,
and
I
really
want
to
thank
thank
the
staff
and
thank
my
colleagues
and
our
chair
for
leading
us
through
this.
I
really
appreciate
it.
C
We've
had
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
some
disagreements,
some
things
we
still
disagree
on,
but
it's
all
been
collaborative
and
collegial
and
we've
really
worked
it
out.
Well,
it's
it
is
a
pleasure
to
be
on
this
board.
I
think
I've
said
that
before
it
is
a
real
pleasure,
I've
been
on
a
lot
of
boards,
and
this
is
a
great
one.
I'm
saying
and
staff's
great.
I
I
think
our
staff
work
is
wonderful.
I
actually
on
this
board
on
this
budget,
I'm
most
pleased
with
what
we
are
doing
for
our
employees.
C
I
found
most
years
warriors
talking
about
raising
employees
and
they
say
we
get
pushback
whatever
and
we
eek
out
a
little
bit
and
I
wish
we
could
do
more,
but
this
feels
like
a
significant
contribution
to
improving
the
compensation.
I
think
that's
a
trend.
That's
probably
going
to
have
to
continue.
I
think
that's
a
good
thing.
C
I
think
public
service
deserves
to
be
paid
well,
because
where
would
we
be
without
good
public
servants,
so
they
make
arlington
what
it
is
and
right
now
this
is,
I
think,
a
great
community
not
perfect,
but
we're
constantly
working
on
improving
and
this
budget
is
part
of
that.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
A
We
really
appreciate
you
so
much,
and
particularly,
I
think
you
know
we
really
saw
the
benefit
of
the
communications
team
within
the
cmo
this
year,
both
on
the
front
end,
you
know
really
the
engagement
that
went
into
asking
this
community,
what
mattered
to
them
on
this
budget
and
then
at
the
back
end
in
terms
of
the
visual
communication
that
we're
able
to
do,
and
I'm
actually
going
to
ask
our
clerk
to
pull
up
a
couple
of
the
slides.
A
As
I
talk
you
know
so
so,
while
I
bore
everybody
by
repeating
what
my
colleagues
have
already
said,
they
can
see
some
of
the
specifics.
You
know
just
to
begin.
A
A
We
are
adding
compensation
increases
for
all
general
employees,
above
the
manager's
recommendation,
fulfilling
our
promise
to
treat
the
increases
that
we
agreed
upon
back
in
december
as
a
floor
and
not
a
ceiling
and,
as
noted
in
guidance,
we're
investing
half
a
million
dollars
in
strategic
retention
and
signing
bonuses
for
our
hardest
to
fill
positions.
That
includes,
but
it
is
hardly
limited
to
our
frontline
mental
health
workers
and
the
crews
based
out
of
our
trade
center.
There
are
big
increases
for
public
safety.
The
investment
in
our
police
is
obviously
notable.
A
These
are
hollowing
out
our
department.
It
is
increasing
over
time
it's
narrowing
the
police
department's
focus
to
reactive
calls
for
service,
it's
decimating
the
capacity
of
our
police
to
spend
time,
building,
neighborhood
relationships
or
serving
on
interagency
efforts
to
address
the
root
causes
of
vexing
public
safety
problems
from
duis
to
domestic
violence
or
just
in
general,
following
through
on
our
shared
vision
for
community
policing.
A
A
There
is
a
teaching
in
my
faith
translated
generally
as
it
is
not
your
responsibility
to
complete
the
work
of
repairing
the
world,
but
neither
are
you
free
to
desist
from
it.
Of
course,
arlington
alone
cannot
arrest
or
reverse
climate
change
and
all
its
devastating
impacts,
but,
of
course,
arlington
with
all
our
advantages
in
innovation
and
our
resources
and
all
of
our
own
high
stakes
in
catastrophic
climate
related
flooding
must
achieve
our
own
urgent
contributions
to
this
goal.
A
The
story-
that's
here,
is
the
start,
and
I
am
really
looking
forward
to
working
with
the
new
occ
and
air
to
embrace
and
supercharge
our
roadmap
to
our
community
energy
plan
commitments
with
regard
to
housing.
We've
talked
quite
a
bit
in
past
two
months
about
how
equity
shows
up
in
this
budget
and,
of
course
I
want
to
commend
actually
not
only
samia
byrd
and
amber
barnett,
but
all
of
our
race
and
equity
cohort
leaders
which
are
in
who
are
in
every
department
helping
their
colleagues
apply
equity,
analyses
and
equity
principles
to
this
budget.
A
If
we're
looking
for
a
line
item
on
equity,
the
tens
of
millions
of
dollars
spent
on
housing
in
this
budget
is
a
pretty
strong
proxy
for
it.
Without
these
investments
in
housing
for
our
low
income
and
moderate
income
neighbors.
So
much
of
the
rest
of
our
budget
to
say
nothing
of
our
collected
values
of
integration
and
opportunity
are
hollow
when
it
comes
to
equity.
After
all,
we
can
achieve
equity
among
residents
very
quickly
and
equally
meaninglessly.
A
If
there's
no
income
diversity
in
arlington,
I'm
really
proud
that
we're
investing
more
than
60
million
dollars
in
housing
this
year,
but
money
doesn't
absolve
us
of
our
own
complicity
in
creating
the
conditions
of
housing
scarcity
and
unaffordability
through
restrictive
zoning.
So
this
budget
is
a
first
step
towards
housing,
affordability
in
2022,
but
it
is
certainly
not
the
last
budgets
are
about
trade-offs
and
there's
more
that
I
wish
we
could
have
done
with
this
year's.
A
As
mr
dorsey
was
intimating,
we
know
that
the
ownership
housing
markets
vertiginous
increases
over
the
last
couple
of
years
and
not
only
priced
out
would-be
owners,
but
have
also
led
to
significant
growth
in
the
assessed
value
of
residential
property
taxes.
Although
I
am
glad
that
we
could
hold
to
our
property
tax
rate
of
one
dollar
and
a
penny
in
the
third
per
hundred
of
dollars
of
assessed
value
among
the
lower
in
the
region.
A
I
know
that
we
all
would
prefer
to
be
in
the
situation
of
our
peer
jurisdictions,
who
are
less
dependent
on
commercial
revenue
sources
and
are
therefore
entertaining
rate
cuts
this
year,
but
by
investing
in
our
people,
specifically
investing
in
retention
and
recruitment
for
the
positions
and
divisions
where
quality
of
service
is
most
threatened
and
prioritizing
the
urgent,
as
well
as
important
issues
of
housing,
equity
and
climate.
I
am
optimistic
that
this
budget
will
be
one
that
doesn't
just
bridge
the
pandemic,
but
begins
our
journey
on
the
other
side.
A
So,
thank
you,
colleagues,
I'm
so
pleased
that
we
are
able
to
to
move
forward
on
the
fiscal
2023
budget
and
to
have
a
whole
three
weeks
to
rest
and
recharge
before
we
begin
the
process
again
on
the
capital
improvement
plan.
So
with
that,
I
believe
we
are
ready
for
our
next
item.
Mr
mr
clerk,
could
you
call
item
43
please.
N
I
I'm
so
excited
that
emma
martin,
who
did
you
start
during
the
pandemic
december
20
december
of
2019.
this?
This
is
yeah.
This
is
her
first
time
in
the
boardroom,
so
I'm
very
excited
to
have
her
here.
She
will
be
presenting
this
item
with
assistance
from
dennis
sellin
as
needed,
but
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you,
ms
martin.
E
Hello,
I'm
emma
martin,
as
mentioned
with
arlington
county's
planning
division
tonight
I'll
be
presenting
the
capital
bike
share,
use
permit
item
the
applicant
is
requesting
a
use
permit
for
a
15
dock
bike
share
station
at
the
corner
of
the
virginia
hospital
center
property
at
1701,
north
george
mason
drive,
the
location
of
the
proposed
bike
share
is
shown
on
the
slide,
with
the
yellow
star.
The
use
permit
is
proposed
to
implement
a
site
plan,
condition
which
obligated
the
virginia
hospital
center
to
fund
installation
and
10
years
of
maintenance
and
operation
costs
for
the
station.
E
The
bicycle
element
of
the
master
transportation
plan
places
emphasis
on
a
robust,
versatile,
multimodal
transformation
in
which
bicycles
play
an
integral
role
in
managing
transportation
plan
for
a
growing
population.
As
shown
on
the
map,
north
george
basin
drive
is
identified
for
a
planned
bike.
Lane
and
16th
street
north
is
identified
as
an
on-street
bike
route.
This
proposal
meets
policy
15
of
the
bicycle
element
of
the
master
transportation
plan,
which
is
to
coordinate
with
regional
partners
and
provide
and
private
providers
to
increase
bike
sharing
across
the
arlington
and
washington
dc
region.
E
The
image
on
the
left
on
this
slide
is
the
approved
civil
site
plan
for
the
virginia
hospital
center,
showing
the
location
of
the
proposed
bike
share
in
the
same
general
location,
as
is
shown
in
the
application
on
the
left
and
the
image
or
in
the
right
on
the
right.
Sorry
per
the
site
plan.
The
existing
five
foot
sidewalk
will
be
widened
to
accommodate
a
10
foot
shared
use
path.
E
Therefore,
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
use,
permit
subject
to
conditions
with
a
county
board
review
in
one
year,
which
will
give
staff
the
community
and
the
county
board
time
to
assess
the
impact
of
the
bike
share
station
and
to
make
revisions
should
the
use
have
any
adverse
impacts
identified
or
if
there
are
any
conflicts
with
the
station.
This
concludes
my
presentation
here
with
me
tonight.
I
have
aaron
schreiber
from
cphd
and
dennis
sullen
from
des
virtually
and
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
questions.
If
you
have
any.
A
Great
thanks
so
much
ms
martin.
I
believe
that
we
have
a
presentation
from
a
applicant,
so
to
speak
from
the
bike
share.
Is
that
right?
Mr
demaio?
Yeah?
Yes,
yes,
good
evening,
mr
demaio,
do
you
have
a
presentation.
A
O
Sure
I
I
can
much
of
what
I
was
gonna
present
was
actually
already
presented
by
emma.
So
thank
you
emma,
and
I
guess
just
wanted
to
add
that
we
capital
bike
share
will
be
providing
roughly
between
eight
to
nine
thousand
trips
per
year,
is
what's
what
I'm
estimating
and
that
if
a
station
were
not
present.
Obviously
many
of
those
trips
by
that
would
have
been
by
bike
will
be
by
motor
vehicles,
adding
to
more
motor
vehicle
traffic
pollution
and
noise
to
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
O
So
certainly
don't
want
that
to
happen,
and
I
think
that
the
capital
bike
share
service
for
the
neighborhood
would
be
a
good
asset
for
the
the
neighborhood
and
also
the
hospital.
So
that's
really
all
I
have
to
say,
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
all
may
have.
A
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
demaio
glad
to
have
you
this
evening.
Mr
clerk,
do
we
have
any
speakers?
There
are.
A
Okay,
the
conversation
is
now
with
the
board.
Oh
no,
we,
this
was.
C
Gonna
make
a
motion
just
to
get
us.
Yes,
please,
ms
garvey
yeah
I'd
love
to
do
that.
All
right,
I'd
like
to
move
that
we
approve
the
use
permit
for
a
capital
bikeshare
station
to
be
cited
on
the
virginia
hospital
center
property
located
at
1701
north
georgia,
mason
drive,
subject
to
the
conditions
of
the
staff
report
with
a
county
board
review
in
one
year.
That's
april
2023.
The
staff
board
report
was
dated
april
15..
Second
great.
C
C
That
sounds
great
and
then,
if
there
are
any
concerns,
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
in
a
year,
which
is
a
good
amount
of
time,
and
I
will
we'll
hold
you
that
nine
to
ten
thousand
ridership
see
if
you
can
get
it
to
be
a
little
bit
more
than
that,
mr
demayo,
that
would
be
kind
of
cool.
Those
are
my
remarks.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
so
much
ms
garvey
and
I'll
know.
We
could
put
this
on
our
regular
agenda
because
of
some
concerns
from
the
surrounding
neighborhoods,
but
I
do
think
they've
largely
been
addressed
with
this
staff
plan.
You
know-
and
I
will
note,
as
you
indicated
ms
garvey,
not
only
because
of
the
nexus
with
you
know,
health
and
clean
air
with
the
hospital.
You
know
I
having
lived
through
that
those
hearings-
plural
for
the
virginia
hospital
center
site
plan
in
2018.
A
You
know
most
of
us
recall
there
were
a
lot
of
conversations
about
how
virginia
hospital
center
as
one
of
arlington's
greatest
largest
employers
right.
We
often
think
of
patients
or
visitors
to
the
hospital,
but
it
is
also
one
of
the
county's
largest.
Employers
could
engage
in
some
meaningful
transportation
demand
management
behavior
to
really
reduce
the
number
of
cars
coming
on
site
every
day,
and
I
will
note
I
was
actually
doing
doing
the
map.
A
This
is
virginia
hospitals
and
this
the
the
bike
share
location
will
be
a
10-minute
bike
ride
from
the
boston
metro
using
the
16th
street
route,
which
the
staff
report
described
right.
If,
if
folks
want
to
ride
on
george
mason,
it's
a
little
less,
but
I
think
they'll
probably
be
using
the
16th
street
round,
which
is
you
know,
really
within
the
ideal
window
of
what
we
look
for
for
trying
to
encourage
employee
behavior.
A
So
if
this
encourages
somebody
to
to
try
biking
to
rely
on
cabbie
as
part
of
their
daily
commute
practice,
that
is
fewer
cars
on
the
road.
That's
fewer
folks,
looking
to
find
off
street
parking
and
surrounding
neighborhoods,
which
I
know
is
a
huge
area
of
concern
and
all
told
I
think,
a
benefit.
A
Although
I
do
appreciate
the
neighborhoods
for
engaging
in
this
and
raising
these
concerns,
as
ms
garvey
indicated,
I
think
we
absolutely
plan
to
monitor-
and
we
know
that
this
has
been
a
site
of
a
great
deal
of
disruption
during
construction
right,
and
so
I
think,
we're
all
looking
forward
to
things
settling
out
a
new
normal,
taking
place
and
hopefully
getting
quite
a
few
of
those
virgin
hospital
center
employees,
and
maybe
visitors
out
of
their
cars
and
onto
capital
bike
share,
will
be
part
of
that
new
normal.
G
A
G
Okay,
for
for
mr
demaio
and
our
staff,
am
I
wrong
if
I
say
that
the
this
section
of
george
mason
boulevard
is
one
of
the
least
service,
so
I
mean
the
section
that
lease
service
have.
I
mean
it's
not
really
very
well
served
with
this
addition.
Here
we
we
are
adding
a
significant
point
of
service.
O
That's
correct:
we're
we're
moving
northward
towards
langston
boulevard
more,
so
I
think
this
this
new
site
will
give
more
opportunity
to
residents
and
visitors
and
employees
getting
them
somewhere
closer
to
where
they
may
work
or
live
or
need
to
need
to
be
so.
Yes,
we
are,
we
are
moving
into
new
neighborhoods
and
expanding
the
services
reach.
G
O
We've
been
working
on
the
station
for
nearly
a
decade,
so
we're
very
very
excited
to
to
have
it,
especially
with
climate
change,
as
you
all
spoke
about
earlier
being
more
impactful.
So
we
will
have
more
e-bikes
as
well
not
to
push
them
too
much,
but
they
will
be
coming
online
later
this
year
and
so
that'll
make
it
even
easier
for
people
who
may
not
consider
themselves
cyclists
to
get
around
by
bike
very
easily.
A
That's
spectacular
news,
yes,
amen,
all
right,
all
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
hi!
Any
opposed
all
right!
Well
glad
to
do
that
after
10
years
in
the
making
right,
and
thank
you
to
our
staff
too,
for
your
work
in
collaboration
with
capital
bikeshare
on
this
item
and
for
joining
us
in
person
tonight,
mr
clerk,
is
there
any
mother
other
business
to
come
before
the
board?
There.
