A
All
right
good
afternoon,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
we
have
come
together
today
to
engage
in
a
markup
of
the
fiscal
19
budget
prior
to
formal
adoption
of
this
budget
on
Saturday
at
our
regular
board
meeting.
Our
objectives
today
are
to
resolve
the
outstanding
issues
regarding
allocations
and
changes
to
the
manager's
proposed
budget,
as
well
as
to
at
least
present
intended
guidance
from
the
board
and
begin
the
conversation.
I
will
will
adopt
and
follow
some
parliamentary
procedure
with
regard
to
the
allocations
as
a
way
of
making
that
process
a
little
smoother
and
clearer.
A
But
with
regard
to
the
guidance
we'll
present,
it
have
some
informal
discussion
and
then
consider
that
more
formally
on
Saturday
I'm
actually
going
to
start
with
what
is
I
think
an
unusual
step
for
markup,
which
is
usually
an
opportunity
for
board
members
to
discuss
amongst
ourselves.
But
I
want
to
ask
the
county
manager
to
speak
to
some
very
recent
changes
on
the
public
safety
compensation
proposal.
He
brought
to
us
just
last
week.
A
B
You,
madam
chair,
so
last
Tuesday.
It
was
a
week
ago
Tuesday
when
I
presented
a
proposal
for
additional
options
for
public
safety
compensation.
Since
that
time,
I've
had
conversations
with
representatives
of
the
fire
union
police
union
and
also
with
the
fire
chief
police
chief
and
the
sheriff
and,
as
I
think,
is
going
to
be
designated
in
the
mark-up.
Today
there
were
additional
the
additional
funds
that
I
had
identified,
which
came
from
freezing
positions
in
the
police
department
in
the
sheriff's
office,
along
with
some
additional
money
that
the
county
treasurer
had
identified
in
her
presentation.
B
Last
Thursday
related
to
unclaimed
funds.
We
have
reached
an
understanding
with
both
the
fire,
police
and
Sheriff
personnel
union
and
leadership
that
there
will
be
additional
increases
and
the
guidance
that
you
put
out
there
will
we'll
detail
an
additional
market
pay
adjustment
for
all
firefighters,
an
additional
market
pay
adjustment
for
all
uniformed
employees
in
the
police,
officer,
corporal
and
sergeant
job
classes,
and
then
also
deputy,
sheriff,
corporal
and
sergeant
positions,
and
rather
go
through
all
the
details.
There.
B
It
doesn't
get
it
quite
as
high
in
some
cases
as
I
had
suggested,
but
with
the
philosophy
that
I
think
the
board
is
going
to
talk
about
we're
committed
to
getting
there
over
a
period
of
time
and
addition,
this
hits
the
two
main
points
we
had
focused
on,
which
was
to
it,
make
the
jobs
more
attractive
to
outside
applicants
and
also
to
reward
those
people
who
have
been
here
and
have
been
working
very
hard
under
very
difficult
circumstances.
So
that
is
just
a
brief
summary
and
happy
to
go
into
any
further
detail.
Mr.
A
So
we
are
very
grateful
to
you
for
that.
Work.
I
wanted
our
manager
to
share
that
before
I
present,
my
chairs
markup,
because
some
of
the
assumptions
he
referenced
are
baked
in
there
so
I
think
our
faithful,
DMF
staff
has
our
markup
to
present.
I
am
going
to
make
a
motion,
and,
if
I
have
a
second
I
will
proceed
to
speak
to
it.
Well,
I'll
make
a
motion
for.
A
Fabulous
I
appreciate
the
Boober.
You
ready
so
colleagues
I'm,
going
to
move
that
the
county
board
make
the
following
amendments
to
the
county
managers
proposed
budget
additional
allocations
and
reductions
to
as
part
of
our
completion
and
adoption
of
the
fiscal
19
budget.
Okay,
now,
mr.
fantastic
okay.
So,
but
in
my
way
of
speaking
to
it,
I'd
like
to
just
walk
us
through
some
of
these
changes
and
then
we'll
have
an
opportunity
for
discussion
of
both
everything
included
here
and
an
opportunity
for
colleagues
to
make
motions
about
changes.
A
They
wish
to
see
further
so
the
first
items,
the
one-time
revenue
associated
with
with
unclaimed
assets.
Where
is
that
revenue
that
the
manager
just
alluded
to
it
was
identified
by
our
treasurer
during
the
budget
process,
and
so
it
was
not
included
in
his
original
proposal.
We're
grateful
to
our
treasurer
for
having
the
eagle
eye
to
find
it
for
us.
The
public
safety
positions
and
Public
Safety
pay
are,
though,
again
consistent
with
the
recommendations
that
our
manager
just
alluded
to.
A
Essentially,
it
freezes
ten
FTEs
for
police
and
six
for
sheriff
and
then
that
second
line
includes
starting
pay
increases
and
raises
four
on
board
staff.
The
allocation
for
AF
is
consistent
with
the
additional
money
from
the
recordation
tax
and
here's
where
we
get
start
to
get
to
some
of
the
board's
changes.
As
a
result
of
the
work
sessions,
public
comments
and
ongoing
discussions
to
the
Lee
Highway
planning
process,
we
propose
to
add
back
250,000
as
a
reminder
that
process
was
cut
in
the
managers
budget
out
of
from
750,000
to
250,000.
A
So
this
restores
about
half
of
the
cut.
There
is
an
additional
$25,000
ad
allocated
in
one-time
money
to
the
Lee
Highway
Alliance,
to
support
that
organizations
work
and
its
executive
director
during
what
we
imagine
will
be
a
pretty
significant
year
for
the
organization
Arlington
independent
media.
We
are
this.
My
markup
rather
proposes
to
allocate
$70,000
in
one-time.
A
One
note
to
make
you
all
aware
of
in
this
spreadsheet
here
is
that
that
is
contingent
on
Arlington
independent
media,
fundraising
a
match
of
$35,000
in
non-governmental
revenues
during
the
fiscal
19
year.
There
is
further
board
discussion
about
the
future
of
Arlington
independent
media
captured
in
our
proposed
guidance,
which
we'll
discuss
in
further
detail
later
to
the
legally
Justice
Center,
which
is
our
contractor
for
legal
aid
services
to
our
immigrants
and
immigrant
community,
particularly
undocumented,
and
mixed
status.
A
Families
we've
seen
them
do
pretty
excellent
work,
just
in
the
first
quarter
or
two
of
their
having
the
grant
that
we
identified
last
year
delivering
a
significant
number
of
workshops
and
individual
consultations,
which
we
I
think
at
least
is
making
a
pretty
significant
difference
in
bringing
some
planning
and
perhaps
certain
due
to
the
extent
that
we
can
during
a
troubling
time
for
these
members
of
our
community.
This
is
only
forty
thousand
dollars.
A
This
is
their
best
assessment,
along
with
the
managers
about
what
they
will
need
to
continue
that
work
into
fiscal
through
the
fiscal
nineteen
year
again,
one-time
money,
one-time
money
for
the
sheriff
for
a
body
scanner
to
detect,
trace
amounts
of
drugs.
She
presented
to
us
during
our
conversation
the
rather
sobering
reality
that
very
trace
amounts
of
opioids
and
narcotics
can
now
be
brought
into
our
jail
facility,
and
she
is
interested
in
this
amount.
I
will
note
that
this
is
a
little
bit
less
than
what
she
proposed.
A
We
believe
this
is
an
amount
that
will
pay
for
the
equipment
itself
and
it
will
be
up
to
our
sheriff
and
her
team
to
identify
the
money
necessary
for
for
training
around
that
new
piece
of
equipment
to
the
county.
Fair.
We
are
allocating
fifty
thousand
dollars
in
one-time
money
to
help
that
that
stretched
thin
volunteer
board,
bring
in
some
support
for
the
for
the
19
year,
the
fiscal
19
year
and
probably
into
the
actual
calendar
year
20
of
delivering
the
fair,
the
shredder
we
have
restored
twenty
thousand
dollars
and
one-time
funding
and
I.
A
You
can
include
in
my
notes
it
is
to
maintain
the
shredding
so
services,
while
the
shredding
equipment
still
has
a
useful
life
so
long
as
that
equipment
has
a
useful
life.
We
feel
that
this
is
a
pretty
modest
sum
of
money
to
continue
access.
The
access
that
members
of
our
neighbourhoods
have
to
it
restoring
$40,000
to
Neighborhood
Services
Division
for
the
external
facilitators
of
neighborhood
college.
A
The
justification
here
is
that
those
external
facilitators
do
incredibly
critical
work,
not
only
in
delivering
the
education
provided
by
a
neighborhood
college,
but
in
the
dedicated
outreach
that
has
made
neighborhood
college
one
of
the
most
representative
and
truly
diverse
community
engagement
experiences
in
the
county
and
that's
something
we're
aiming
to
keep,
although
again
just
in
one-time
money.
Unfortunately,
for
this
year
we
are
proposing
to
or
excuse
me
again,
this
markup
proposes
to
defer
implementation
of
the
historic
designation
administrative
fee
for
just
one
year.
We
can
reconsider
it
again
next
year.
A
The
thinking
here
is,
we
are
also
in
this
fiscal
year
experiencing
the
implementation
of
a
number
of
new
ordinance
amendments.
With
regard
to
what
is
required
to
file
an
historic
preservation
request,
we
thought
that
it
might
make
sense
to
defer
the
implementation
of
that
administrative
fee
until
the
community
can
acclimate
itself
to
the
other
administrative
requirements.
I
should
note
this
is
at
the
recommendation.
The
unanimous
recommendation
of
the
HL,
RB
and
I
believe
is
well
the
recommendation
of
our
Planning
Commission.
A
There
is
additional
money
for
Pago
funding,
restoring
some
of
the
of
the
necessary
cuts
in
the
managers
budget
with
one-time
money,
as
we've
talked
quite
a
bit
in
recent
days
about
some
of
the
pressures
we're
anticipating
with
our
capital
budget.
Pago
is
one
way
of
addressing
that.
The
final
item
and
and
I
want
to
be
clear
about
what
this
is
here
and
what
is
for
discussion
today
and
what
will
be
for
discussion.
A
Saturday,
I,
think
members
of
our
community
and
certainly
of
the
Arlington
County
government
community
employees
have
been
involved
in
rethinking
the
future
of
courthouse
Plaza
in
using
money
from
both
rent,
abatements
and
tenant
improvement.
Funds
realized
during
the
the
signing
of
a
new
lease
for
this
facility
to
achieve
renovations
to
improve
how
work
is
done
here
in
the
safety
of
the
building
the
tenant
improvement
funds
which
make
up
by
far
the
balance
of
that
overall
budget
can
be
spent
only
on
those
renovations
and
so
I
think
that
the
board
is
very
supportive
of
that.
A
We'll
have
an
opportunity
for
further
discussion
to
the
extent
that
members
of
the
public
have
opinions
are
invited
to
come
in
and
speak
I
am
proposing
for
today.
That
Saturday
is
the
appropriate
time
to
have
that
more
fulsome
discussion
about
how
much
we
might
choose
to
reallocate
or
deallocate
from
the
courthouse
Plaza
project
and
reallocate
to
other
priorities
in
the
fiscal
year.
Budget
I
have
included
here
as
somewhat
of
a
placeholder
2.5
million
dollars
in
reductions
from
the
courthouse
Plaza
renovation
budget
that
they
BD
allocated
from
that
purpose
and
potentially
reallocated
to
aps.
A
I
want
to
make
clear
again
with
with
further
discussion
the
since
further
discussion
is
coming
on
Saturday,
just
to
note
that
any
lack
of
protests
from
my
colleagues
at
this
time
either
that
amount
being
too
high
or
too
low
manat
comments
about
that.
Now.
That
should
not
be
taken
or
construed
as
endorsement.
It's
merely
a
recognition
on
the
part
of
the
five
of
us
that
we
thought.
Saturday
is
the
right
time
to
have
that
conversation
rather
than
today,
so
we're
leaving
that
in
or
a
placeholder.
A
C
You,
madam
chair
I'm,
gonna,
do
the
parliamentary
thing
and
I
believe
when
the
motion
was
made,
that
it
was
a
motion
to
amend
the
manager's
budget
and
I
think
sequentially
just
to
make
sure
mr.
MacIsaac
doesn't
have
agita
that
we
we
want
to
move
the
presentation
of
this
markup
and
seconded
it,
because
on
Saturday
we
are
actually
adopting
the
budget.
I.
Think
procedurally,
that's
right,
but
if
anybody
here
can
get.
C
I
would
like
to
make
one
amendment
and
and
I
apologize,
given
the
weighty
issues
that
are
before
us.
This
is
going
to
seem
rather
trivial,
but
it's
no
less
substantial
I
will
make
a
motion
to
add
one-time
funding
in
the
amount
of
$5,000
to
the
Columbia,
Pike
revitalization
organization,
and
offset
that
with
5,000
reduction
and
amounts
allocated
to
Pago,
and
if
I
could
just
speak
generally
about
what
this
is
in
case,
people
have
not
followed
the
communication.
A
C
That
was
the
agreed
upon
amount
for
that
effort
in
order
to
continue
that
into
the
future,
and
since
des
was
not
able
to
absorb
that
increased
FTE
within
their
FY
2019
budget,
C
Perot
has
been
asked
to
fully
fund
that
additional
FTE,
which
doesn't
come
at
a
cost
of
47,000.
It
comes
at
a
cost
of
50,000
for
total
compensation.
So
that's
a
net
increase
of
three
thousand
dollars.
C
The
remaining
two
comes
from
something
that
the
organization
just
recently
learned
about,
but
we've
also
discussed
with
the
bids
when
they
were
in
here,
and
that
is
our
imposition
of
right
away
fees
for
farmers
markets.
So
the
very
successful
Columbia
Pike
farmers
market,
which
occurs
every
Saturday
51
to
52
weeks
a
year,
would
be
subject
to
right-of-way
fees
a
little
over
$2,000
and
you
know,
while
the
bids
have
the
ability
to,
in
the
case
of
Boston
this
year,
raising
their
their
tax
rates
or,
in
the
case
of
other
bids,
experience
growing
property
values.
C
Our
partnerships
are
in
a
bit
of
a
different
place,
so
this
really
has
an
impact
on
delivery
of
the
farmers
market
so
collectively
the
$5,000
would
minimize
the
stagnation
or
the
reductions
in
County
funding
that
c-bro
has
been
charged
with,
while
being
able
to
deliver
the
same
kind
of
program
that
we
expect
from
them.
The.
D
A
D
To
offer
a
question:
I
just
had
a
couple
of
comments
and
actually
a
question
or
two
for
mr.
Dorsey
actually
on
the
county,
fair
augmentation,
which
I
support,
but
mr.
Dorsey,
what
I'm
wondering
is
given,
given
the
the
challenges
that
I
think
we
all
acknowledge.
The
County
Fair
is
facing
the
year-after-year
shrinkage
of
the
exhibit
hall.
In
terms
of
you
know,
true
homegrown,
arts
and
crafts
displays,
as
opposed
to
you,
know,
citing
peddlers
and
roofing
salesmen
and
and
and
so
forth.
Not
that
there's
anything
wrong
with
that.
C
Those
are
very
important
observations,
mr.
Vyse
that,
and
actually
this
this
budget
request
will
partially
fulfill
the
ability
for
them
to
do
that
very
same
thing,
part
of
the
reason
why
the
Fair
has
resulted
in
I
think
a
diminished
quality
of
the
indoor
presence
is
because
it's
become
cost
prohibitive
for
a
lot
of
the
groups
that
would
otherwise
be
active
at
the
fair
and
that's
been
to
balance
balance.
C
The
books,
quite
frankly,
I
think
with
this
allotment,
which
will
enable
them
to
either
reduce
or
to
offset
some
of
the
fees
that
they
pay,
the
county
for
police
and
trash
rescue,
or,
as
is
my
hope,
to
actually
secure
the
staffing
to
do
a
lot
of
the
work
that
the
volunteer
volunteer.
Fair
Board
does
that
excludes
them
from
doing
fundraising
and
strategic
thinking
about
the
programmatic
offerings
of
the
Fair.
C
This
will
help
significantly
and
I,
actually
hope
and
will
be
part
of
my
consultation
with
them
that
maybe
we
can
think
about
a
different,
fair
structure
inside
because,
as
I
think
you
went
mr.
Vyse
dad
and
maybe
others.
But
every
year
the
PTA
at
Swanson
middle
school
holds
a
terrific
event
with
local
crafts
makers
and
local
artisans
in
the
Swanson
gymnasiums,
and
they
truly
have
a
lot
of
groups
that
would
love
to
be
at
the
fair.
C
But
it's
are
more
expensive
for
them
to
be
at
the
fair
than
it
is
to
do
an
event
like
that.
So
put
them
in
touch
with
each
other,
and
hopefully
they
will
have.
You
know
some
degree
of
a
relationship
which
will
enable
that
group
to
sort
of
feed
into
what
the
Faire
is
able
to
do
so
long
story,
long
story
to
say
simply
I
think
you
are
exactly
right
on
point
as
to
what's
needed
and
I
think
this
will
help
them
get
there,
and
it
should
also
be
noted
that
their
request
was
for
twice
this.
D
D
A
E
The
school
system
provides
pretty
good
services
for
young
people
with
mental
health
issues,
and
then
they
leave
the
school
system
and
they
fall
off
a
cliff
because
the
services
aren't
there,
which
I
think
then
means
that
they
get
in
a
much
more
difficult
situations
that
are
actually
much
more
costly
for
the
county
in
the
long
run
to
say
nothing
of
the
heartache
it
causes
for
the
family
and
the
young
people
involved.
So
it
just
seems
to
me
a
stitch
in
time
saves
nine.
E
If
you
will
Pennywise
and
pound-foolish,
we
ought
to
be
funding
this
up
upfront
where
it
can
do
the
most
good
and
I
know
we
don't
have
any
more
ongoing
money.
I
am
very
aware-
and
in
my
years
here
on
this
board,
how
often
we
have
grants
from
the
federal
government
and
others
for
these
kinds
of
positions.
E
I'm,
also
aware
that
one
year
is
kind
of
hard,
so
I
would
like
to
propose
making
this
a
two-year
position,
a
clear
in
essence,
a
grant
a
staff
can
say
exactly
how
we
need
to
phrase
it,
but
setting
aside
184,000
to
be
spent
over
two
years
to
fund
this
position
and
also
when
we
get
there,
some
summon
some
language
about
wanting.
You
know
a
report
and
analysis
back
on
on
how
it's
working,
which
often
actually
happens
with
these
grants
too.
E
A
A
C
Miss
Garvey,
and
certainly
the
the
need,
is
there,
and
there
are
many
things
were
presented
to
us
both
in
the
base
budget
that
were
proposed
for
reduction,
as
well
as
from
the
community
and
external
forces
that
are
true
needs.
I
think
this
really
is
is
is
one
of
those,
however
I.
This
does
give
me
concern,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
would
ask
of
you
miss
Garvey.
Is
that,
as
you
draft
guidance
for
how
we
move
forward
with
this,
this
is
very
clear
that
this
is
a
a
two-year
commitment
that
ends
in
two
years.
C
This
is
not,
you
know,
growing
an
FTE
with
a
review
in
a
couple
of
years
to
determine
whether
or
not
it's
kept
that
it
actually
ends
in
two
years.
Otherwise
we
are
really
just
baking
in
some
structural
imbalance
with
this
budget.
At
a
time
when
you
know
I,
think
a
wider
conversation
about
how
these
funds
would
have
been
better
used
if
available
would
have
been
in
order.
This
is
not
to
say
that
there's
not
a
true
need
that
could
be
filled
here,
but
mechanically
I.
C
Don't
think
this
is
the
ideal
way
to
do
it,
but
understand
that
you're
trying
to
work
with
the
circumstances
that
we
have-
and
you
know
I-
can
certainly
live
with
it,
but
I
think
it's
going
to
be
up
to
budget
guidance
to
really
make
sure
this.
This
truly
has
we
don't
create
any
expectations
that
this
is
a
permanent
increase
in
resource
I.
E
Appreciate
that
and
that's
why
I
sort
of
referred
to
it
as
as
I
say
in
this
in
this
area,
they're
often
grants
that
only
go
for
a
few
years,
and
then
they
either
drop
out
or
you
figure
something
else
to
do,
and
I
will
work
with
staff
to
get
that
final
guidance
written
in
such
a
way
that
it
makes
sense
and
I
think
you'll
be
comfortable
with
it.
Thank
you.
F
A
So
I'll
make
some
comments
of
this
I
I
haven't
to
be
honest,
I
am
really
struggling.
I
find
it
excruciating
to
vote
against
the
addition
of
a
young
adult
mental
health,
counselor
I.
Think
from
all
of
my
work,
with
a
partnership
for
children,
youth
and
families.
All
of
my
work
with
the
teamwork
Network
board.
All
of
my
work
prior
to
getting
on
the
board
with
the
Advisory
Council
on
instruction
as
a
member
of
our
schools
community
is
a
longtime
volunteer.
This
need
is
absolutely
there.
I
mean
I,
think
you
know.
A
We
only
need
to
look
nationally
at
the
challenges
we're
facing
with
school,
shootings,
unprecedented
level
of
stress
and
anxiety
and
depression
and
addiction.
This
need
is
absolutely
there.
I,
don't
believe,
I
find
myself
in
a
position
to
vote
against
it.
I,
but
I
have
to
say
the
only
thing
worse
than
not
voting
to
add.
This
will
be
voting
to
take
it
away
in
two
years,
when
this
individual
actually
has
clients
who
have
come
to
depend
on
him
or
her
actually
has
individuals
who
are
reliant
on
their
services.
A
E
G
A
Might
be
the
lone
voice
on
this,
but
I
don't
think
that
I
can
responsibly
vote
to
bake
the
structural
imbalance
into
our
budget.
I
know
I,
know
I
will
not
be
able
to
let
this
lapse
two
years
from
now.
So
I
would
just
you
know,
underscore
my
commitment
to
the
idea
to
trying
to
find
you
know
this
position
as
a
priority
working
with
DHS
to
make
it
a
priority
in
the
budget
next
year,
I
appreciate
the
CSB
bringing
it
to
us
and
you
know
protecting
that.
A
A
C
C
Will
you
know
make
clear
that
this
is
the
the
effort
here
is
to
add
resources
for
an
approach
which,
after
two
years,
we
will
have
data
and
analysis
on
what
it
did
and
it
will
inform
future
service
delivery,
not
future
FTEs,
because
that
will
not
be
on
the
table
unless
a
future
board
decides
that
it
ought
to
be,
but
I
think
your
assessment
of
you
know
what
we're
doing
is
not
necessarily
being
prudent.
Budgetarily
is
spot-on.
A
A
D
D
Many
on
different
sides
of
the
issue,
and-
and
you
know
it's
the
old
saying
about
how
you
know-
sausages
and
laws,
they're
they're
kind
of
difficult
to
watch
being
made,
but
I
just
really
want
to
thank
everybody,
especially
the
chair
and
especially
our
manager.
So,
with
respect
to
the
line
item
with
respect
to
rent
abatements
for
courthouse,
Plaza
I
am
mindful
of
what
the
chair
said
today
that
this
is
a
placeholder.
D
But
I
do
think
that
this
underscores
the
difficulty
that
at
least
I
am
having
during
such
difficult
budget
times
with
taking
not
just
the
23
million
dollars
in
the
tenant
improvement
allowance
that
were
obligated
to
take
to
plow
into
this
building.
That
is
barely
30
years
old,
plus
the
broker
fee
of
two
and
a
half
million.
And
then
the
question
is:
do
we
also
put
the
full
10
million
in
renovate
'men
into
this
building?
D
At
a
time
when
there
are
so
many
other
ongoing
and
one-time
needs
for
scarce
funds,
so
at
a
minimum
I'm
going
to
be
supporting
this
on
Saturday
and
in
all
likelihood,
I
will
be
making
a
motion
to
increase
the
amount
reallocated
to
five
million
and
I
appreciate
the
manager
and
mr.
de
Agostini's
two
options
that
were
given
to
us
in
that
regard.
Thank
you
appreciate.
A
That
and
I'm
actually
noting
the
service
that
your
comments
have
brought
to
mind.
Just
a
quick,
clean
off
item.
As
we're
tracking
that
budget,
we
should
probably
delete
the
parenthetical
about
additional
one-time
to
a
PSS
mid-year
third
quarter
review,
given
the
source
now
is
much
greater
than
the
mid-year
third
quarter
review.
F
F
A
F
F
My
thinking
is
that
one
of
the
reasons
among
many,
why
I
believe
that
funding
fully
funding
the
Lee
Highway
planning
initiative
is
that
it
is
far
in
a
way
are
one
of
not
one
of
it
is
the
best
opportunity
to
unlock
the
tools
and
the
the
zoning
tools
and
the
other
mechanisms
that
we
need.
The
other
tools
that
we
need
to
get
to
really
fundamentally
realize
the
goals
of
the
affordable
housing
master
plan.
We
are
only
getting
and
we've
heard
plenty
from
members
of
the
community.
F
We
are
not
realizing
just
through
allocations
to
AF
and
the
existing
tools
that
we
have.
The
realization
of
are
very
real
and
we're
all
committed
to
this
they're.
Very
real
goals
in
the
affordable
housing
master
plan,
but
we
are
falling
behind
every
year
every
day
that
goes
by
so
my
intent
here
and
while
at
first
blush
it's
like
I,
said
the
collective
gasp
I
get.
It
is
that
well,
my
god
you're
taking
from
from
a
if
that's
that's
a
sacred
cow
I'm
trying
to
walk
the
walk.
F
When
we
talk
about
that,
we
do
have
to
be
responsible
in
how
we
fund
things.
I
think
that
that
250k,
going
towards
Lee
Highway
planning,
where
we'd
been
have
the
opportunity
to
unlock,
where
we're
going
to
get
excellent
opportunities
for
affordable
housing
in
the
future
justifies
that
transfer.
I
also
want
to
make
the
case
that
outside
of
affordable
housing,
that
Lee
highway
is
also
the
place
where
we're
going
to
and
meaning
committed,
affordable
units.
F
Lee
highway
is
also
our
best
opportunity
and
through
that
process,
to
create
the
tools
to
develop
more
missing
middle
housing
in
our
community,
not
just
on
on
the
corridor,
but
to
develop
those
tools
that
can
eventually
be
used
elsewhere
in
the
county.
Also
Lee
highway
I
think
is
our
best
opportunity
to
have
a
discussion
as
a
community
about
what
is
the
next
version
of
Arlington.
What
are
we
trying
to
become?
F
We
talked
about
make
talk
about
mixed-use
when
we
talk
about
what
it
means
to
have
sort
of
a
a
lower
density,
kind
of
growth,
livable
communities,
walkable
communities,
we've
been
doing
things
a
certain
way
in
Arlington
for
some
time
now
and
I.
Don't
think
that
those
things,
although
smart
growth
has
worked
out
quite
well
for
us
in
this
community
I,
don't
believe
that
keeping
doing
those
things.
F
The
same
way
we
have
been
is
our
answer
for
competitiveness
in
the
future,
and
we
need
to
have
a
fulsome
discussion
and
it
to
get
that
fulsome
discussion
and
to
really
use
the
power
of
this
planning
process
to
leverage
all
that
the
Lee
Highway
Alliance
has
done
to
do
all
the
things
that
we
want
to
do.
I
think
we
have
to
do
that
with
a
full-throated
Lee
Highway
planning
effort,
not
a
scale
back,
not
a
piecemeal
approach,
so
I
know
under
tight
budget
times.
F
We
would
love
to
believe
that
we
could
get
the
same
results
from
500k
that
we
would
get
from
750k
I.
Don't
find
that
to
be
true
and
I
think
there's
anything
magic
about
the
number
of
750k,
but
I
think
it
is
what
was
originally
allocated
and
so,
therefore,
for
me,
it's
what
the
level
of
effort
given
its
importance
to
everything
that
we
talk
about.
We
want
to
do
on
this
board.
I
think
it's
just
preeminent
important.
Thank
you.
Thank.
C
You,
madam
chair,
and
appreciate
mr.
budge,
Hall's
creativity,
I'd,
say
I'm,
not
gonna,
be
able
to
support
this
motion
not
because
I
think
HF
is
or
should
be
viewed
as
a
sacred
cow,
but
the
AEF
produces
affordable
units.
This
action
would
direct
investment
in
units
to
study
which
may
be
at
some
point
upon.
C
Implementation
could
produce
something
wonderful
in
the
sphere
of
affordable
housing,
but
that's
a
that's
a
bridge
that
I
can't
quite
connect
that
we
would
actually
disinvest
in
units
to
put
that
into
a
broad
card
or
study,
and
you
know
the
the
question
about
the
actual
amount
for
the
highway.
I
appreciate
your
noting
that
there's
nothing
magical
about
750,
it's
a
it's
a
placeholder.
It's
an
estimate,
it's
a
thought,
but
as
I
consider
all
of
the
other
planning
processes
which
we
have
done
both
historically
and
recently.
C
There
is
no
way
that
we
are
going
to
complete
the
Lee
Highway
planning
process
in
the
next
year.
It's
going
to
be
multi-year
study
and
at
some
point
with
the
RFP
just
recently
recently
having
at
the
street
right
mr.
Schwartz.
We
don't
have
any
refinement
on
what
exactly
that
will
look
like
and
what
will
be
required
both
to
realize
what
we
desire
from
the
study
in
the
first
fiscal
year
as
well
as
any
subsequent
fiscal
year.
So
I
would
be
much
more
comfortable
having
a
half
a
million
feeling
that
past
history
shows
us.
C
E
You
miss
Garvey,
yeah
I,
also
appreciate
the
the
thinking
I
I.
Think
mr.
Getchell,
if
I
were
assured
that
this
disinvestment
is,
you
know
in
a
half,
would
then
and
intially
highway
would
actually
result
in
more
affordable
housing
is
I
mean
the
goal
that
you
expressed
I'd
be
a
lot
more
comfortable
with
it.
E
My
sense
is
that
the
cutting
back
on
the
the
requested
amount
and
again
that
there's
no
magic
amount,
is
it
just
simply
means
it'll
go
a
little
bit
slower
than
it
might
have
otherwise,
which
gives
us
some
time
to
maybe
direct
it
a
little
bit
more
and
maybe
make
it
really
clear.
This
is
Lehigh,
we'll
ask
we
really
want
you
to
concentrate
on
affordable
housing.
E
A
D
Sure
so
I
find
myself
aligned
with
my
colleague
mr.
guts
on
this.
For
a
couple
reasons:
I
don't
view
this
as
a
divestment
in
affordable
housing.
I
mean
let's
be
realistic.
Here,
$250,000
doesn't
really
even
fund
one
newly
built,
affordable
housing
in
today's
dollars.
But
but
you
know
what
what
does
this,
for
me
really
is-
is
not
just
good
planning
and
the
need
to
look
at
the
Lee
highway
corridor
in
a
holistic
fashion
from
Roslyn
all
the
way
to
East
Falls
Church.
D
And
now
we
have
the
opportunity
to
broaden
the
dispersion
of
housing.
Affordability
to
the
northern
sector
of
the
county,
which
you
know
by
any
by
any
statistic,
and
any
view
of
the
map
does
not
have
a
great
deal
of
affordable
housing.
Lee
highway
is
well
not
a
metro
corridor.
It's
a
major
transit
corridor.
D
A
In
the
long
term,
which
is
a
roundabout
way
of
saying
I
think
we
feel
often
the
scarcity
of
time
with
our
Planning
Division
staff,
particularly
who
are
all
stretched
incredibly
thin
and,
and
that
can
create.
You
know
for
those
of
us
who
have
priorities
for
their
uses
of
time
and
perhaps
even
among
the
staff
themselves
that
sense
of
tunnel
vision
and
and
with
Lee
highway.
A
All
of
which
is
to
say
I
do
support
the
idea
of
restoring
the
full
750,
and
that
is
inspired
not
only
by
that
sort
of
squishy
qualitative
set
of
values
I
just
mentioned,
but
based
actually,
our
staff
helpfully
provided
for
us.
In
response
to
my
request
for
more
information
about
what
the
county
had
spent
on
four
mile
run
in
Columbia
Pike-
and
you
know
neither
of
those
are
an
apples
to
apples
comparison
with
Lee
highway,
but
I
do
think.
It's
pretty
salient
to
know.
A
The
four
mile
run
initiative,
which
is
still
in
process
in
fact
well
here
in
RTA,
on
a
part
of
framework
on
Saturday,
has
that
the
planning
piece
has
cost
five
hundred
and
forty
eight
thousand
dollars
and
the
Jenny
Dean
Park
master
plan,
and
that's
just
one.
Public
amenity
has
cost
two
hundred
and
twenty
four
thousand
dollars
and
again
the
the
budget.
Clock
is
still
ticking
on
that
one
and
that
actually
is
not
a
plan
that
calls
for
a
fundamental
overhaul
of
the
of
the
the
zoning
and
land
use
in
four
mile
run.
A
So
I
don't
want
to
give
this
process
short
strip
short
shrift
and
I
very
much
associate
myself
with
the
first
half
of
mr.
guts.
Moksha
I
do
not,
for
the
reasons
I
think
well
put
by
mr.
Dorsey
support
the
idea
of
taking
it
from
the
the
allocations
for
a
if
I
recognize
its
relatively
paltry
when
it
comes
to
the
goal
of
supporting
the
creation
of
units,
but
actually
that
is
probably
pretty
approximate
to
the
creation
of
about
one
unit,
which
is
important
as
well.
A
As
you
know,
the
supportive
services
that
a
have
funding
helps
us
provide
so
I
might
I
well
I'll.
Leave
it
to
mr.
Getchell
I'd,
either
like
to
make
a
friendly
emotion
that
we
offset
it
from
pay.
Go.
If
you
accept
that
as
friendly
I
would
be
happy
to
accept
the
motion,
but
if
not
I
will
not
be
supporting
it.
Well,.
F
Thank
you
to
all
my
colleagues
for
for
the
comments.
What
I
would
I
am
Ameen
able
to
the
to
that
motion.
I,
don't
know
if
that
would
bring
anyone
else
along
or
if
mr.
Vyse,
that
who
supported
my
motion
would
somewhat
still
supported
if
it
was
coming
from
from
pay-go.
Do
you
want
to
think
you
would
thank
you
so
I'm
willing
to
do
that,
but
I
did
but
excuse
me.
C
F
So
we
will
need
so
Wow,
maybe
somebody's
looking
at
that
half
and
a
half
mr.
Vyse
heads
whispering
I
would
I
do
want
to
respond
to
the
notion
of
number
of
units
and
what
we're
getting
and
what
and
just
to
clarify
my
thinking
on
this,
because
actually,
we've
had
projects
come
through
recently
that
I
think
we're
in
the
ADK
per
unit
of
a
half
dollars
range.
So
by
that
count,
this
could
be
as
many
as
three
units
right.
F
That
was
a
relatively
low
number
at
at
Queen's
Court
right,
some
of
them
are
higher,
so
even
if
we
call
it
three
units,
the
thing
is
is
that
where
we
are
headed
in
terms
of
the
opportunity
that
cost
is
going
to
continue
to
go
up,
this
is
an
investment.
In
my
view,
why
I'm
fully
comfortable
telling
my
friends
in
the
affordable
housing
community,
who
probably
won't
necessarily
agree
with
me
on
this
all
of
them,
but
but
looking
them
in
the
eye
and
saying
that
this
is
the
right
investment
for
these
dollars.
F
First
of
all,
we're
not
cutting
from
the
original
allocation
for
a
if
this
is
what
was
being
earmarked
to
go
to
them.
In
addition
to
the
thirteen
point,
seven
already
in
the
managers
proposal,
also
that
if
we
want
to
bring
down
the
cost
per
unit,
you
really
want
to
just
look
at
the
units
that
you're
getting
for
a
the
future
is
gonna,
be
on
Lee
highway,
where
we
can
have
a
lower
cost
per
unit.
This
investment
is
gonna
pay
for
itself
in
units
many
times
over
in
the
years
to
come.
F
F
F
A
F
A
Would
you
be
interested
in
introducing
another
motion
with
regard
to
Pago
or
some
split
source
of
funding,
or
would
you
prefer,
if
not
mr.
Getchell
I
would
be
happy
to
go
ahead
and
make
the
motion
there's
a
balance
of?
What's
in
Pago
of
one
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
be
moved
to
yes,.
G
H
F
Right,
if
you
like
that
one
you're
gonna
love
this
next,
one
all
right
follow
along
with
me
and
again,
I'll
just
stay
as
I
make
the
motion
any
second
for
the
purposes
of
conversate
of
discussion
is
much
appreciated.
So,
madam
chair,
what
I
would
like
to
move
is
that
we
restore
the
five
hundred
fifty
four
thousand
three
hundred
and
twelve
dollars
for
the
air
program,
with
an
offsetting
decrease
in
the
FY
19
short-term
master
lease
masterly
short-term
financing,
there's
there's
what
before
I
speak
to
it.
E
E
F
F
I
know
that
there
are
those
on
the
board
here
that
feel
that
the
general
fund
goes
into
the
general
fund
and
having
the
different
pots
of
money
is
not
necessarily
the
right
way
that
we
should
go,
but
I
feel
quite
strongly
that
we
should
not
be
simultaneously
growing.
The
utility
tax
and
cutting
the
air
program
I
also
know
that
there
there
are
members
on
the
board
here
who
are
uncomfortable.
F
Whether
or
not
the
rebate
program,
for
example,
which
is
part
of
what's
being
cut,
is
the
appropriate
best
bang
for
the
buck.
So
I
would
certainly
entertain
some
guidance.
That
would
we
restore
these
funds
and
guidance.
That
would
that
would
ask
the
air
program
to
to
evaluate
what
kind
of
return
are
we
getting
on
that
and
and
to
and
to?
F
Finally,
if
need
be
to
find
better
ways
to
spend
it,
because
I
certainly
want
to
make
sure
we're
spending
the
money
the
right
way,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
tax
that
we're
collecting
and
then
when
we
enacted
that
tax,
we
told
the
taxpayers
that
we
were
going
to
be
spending
that,
on
specifically
on
the
air
program,
I'd
like
to
see
if
live.
True
to
that.
A
F
F
A
H
B
I
just
want
to
add
one
point,
I
think
mr.
Agostini
and
Miss
Cowen
may
have
something
that
which
is
that
the
the
way
the
master
lease
works
is
that
we
budget
for
debt
service
and
some
of
those
are
obligations
that
we've
already
incurred
with
a
bank.
So
we
have
to
pay
them.
So
I
can't
sit
here
right
now
and
tell
you
how
much
of
that
money
is
something
where
we
actually
don't
have
a
choice
to
cut.
B
Certainly
some
of
the
the
additional
new
purchases
that
you
referenced
could
be
in
a
world
where
you
don't
have
routers,
switchers
and
new
computers.
Something
to
do
and
I
would
have
a
problem
with
that,
but
that
certainly
would
be
something
you
could
do
that
wouldn't
be
violating
a
covenant.
We
have
with
back
right
and
I,
don't
know
if
mr.
Agostini
or
Miss
Cowen
one
add
anything
that
no.
I
I,
just
we
have
to
look
into
this
because
some
of
this
is
for
existing
payments
to
our
current
lenders
and
so
with
we'd
have
to
go
back
through
it
and
then
the
reason
why
we
list
out
in
that
budget
these
are
the
new
investments
or
replacement
investments,
we're
trying
to
make
it
that
it's
not
like
a
one-for-one.
Do
you
follow
me
and
you
might
have
to
cut
even
more
of
that
project
list
of
that
ten
million
of
lists
to
get
that
same
amount
in
a
debt
service
or
payment
reduction.
I
A
We
can
entertain
further
comments.
I
might
actually
just
suggest
the
following
to
potentially
preempt
some
of
the
comments,
which
is,
for
my
part,
I
think
for
the
reasons
our
staff
have
just
suggested.
This
would
be
not
a
vote.
I'm
willing
to
take
without
considerably
more
information
and
I
might
suggest.
Mr.
Getchell
that
you,
if
you'd
like
to
proceed
down
this
path
with
staff
in
the
next
24
to
48
hours,
see
if
you
can
get
some
of
those
questions
answered
more
specifically
and
bring
it
forward
on
Saturday
I'd.
F
J
So
the
master
lease
the
list
that
we
have
there
is
what
we
anticipated
borrowing
for.
So
it's
a
large,
the
nine
million
or
so
is
a
list
of
projects
that
we
anticipated.
We
would
go
out
and
do
short-term
financing
and
I.
Think
in
the
pay-go
discussion.
The
work
session
we
had
I
tried
to
lay
doubt
that
we
were
contemplating
either
continuing
the
master
lease
program
where
we
have
a
bank
financing
our
purchases.
What
we
were
going
to
do
some
other
form
of
short-term
financing.
So
to
echo
miss
Cohen's
point.
F
E
C
Be
that
short,
oh
thank
you.
Miss
Garvey,
you
know
I,
think
you
know.
Mr.
Getchell
I
I
admire
your
creativity
and
trying
to
figure
out
a
nexus
to
achieve
a
programmatic
or
a
budgetary
goal
that
you
have,
even
if
we
didn't
have
the
complications
with
the
financing
arrangement
and
the
master
lease,
even
if
it
were
as
simple
as
an
apples-to-apples
5%
reduction
in
the
program
that
was
presented
to
us
I
would
still
think
that
it
was
not
the
right
thing
to
do.
C
I
find
our
County's
investment
in
modernized,
efficient
and
secure
equipment
to
actually
be
a
relative
source
of
weakness
for
us
as
an
organization,
one
that
we're
playing
catch-up
on.
So
even
a
5%
reduction
for
me
would
be
an
issue
and
that's
probably
also
influenced
by
you
know,
looking
at
the
air
program.
C
So
until
we
can
definitively
answer
that
question
one
way
or
the
other
I
think
it
is
actually
a
healthy
thing
to
do
budget
pressures
or
not
to
cease
that
program
in
the
world
of
economics.
You
don't
maintain
subsidies
in
perpetuity.
You
know
many.
Many
people,
like
myself
I,
have
a
problem
that
80
plus
years
after
initially
subsidizing
the
oil
industry.
We
continue
to
do
so.
It
doesn't
create
a
good
good
idea
of
what
the
market
forces
are
and
I
think.
C
D
A
So
again,
I'm
gonna
associate
myself
with
the
first
half
of
your
motion,
which
is
sort
of
unsurprising
at
this
point
in
a
difficult
budget,
I
think
were
there
are
a
lot
of
cuts
where
a
lot
of
us
would
have
liked
to
have
seen
restored
and
the
the
concern
felt
out
in
the
community.
That,
notwithstanding,
though,
the
good
points
actually
that
I'd
associate
myself
with
the
mr.
A
Dorsey
made
about
the
efficacy
of
the
rebate
program,
any
reductions
in
debt,
a
what
was
erstwhile
dedicated
funding
to
err,
could
be
seen
as
a
as
a
backing
off
of
our
sustainability
commitment.
So
it's
been
weighing
heavy
on
my
mind
and
I've
actually
we'll
have
later
some
some
guidance
to
propose
to
that
effect.
But
to
if
it
looks
like
there's
a
big
pot
of
money
that
we
can
touch
with
no
consequences.
It's
probably
too
good
to
be
true
and
I.
A
F
To
all
of
you
for
your
comments,
I
I
will
withdraw
them.
The
motion
and
I
will
also
note
that
that
none
of
you,
though,
addressed-
and
we
don't
have
to
do
it
now.
Obviously
none
of
you
addressed
the
issue
of
the
fundamental
fairness
of
the
utility
tax
and
and
what
the
purpose
for
which
that
that
tax
was
enacted,
which
was
the
real
issue
that
I
was
trying
to
to
address
so
more
to
come,
perhaps
on
Saturday
and
thank
you.
C
Well,
I
will
address
it.
You
know
it's
one
of
the
I
think
it's
important
to
raise.
It's
always
important
for
us
when
options
are
presented
that
diverge
from
past
policy
for
us
to
long
and
hard
about.
It's
not
only
balance
the
needs
of
today
but
to
understand
all
that
went
into
the
policy
directive
in
the
first
place.
C
But
you
know,
just
as
your
previous
proposal
recommended
a
shift
in
policy
from
taking
increases
in
the
the
recaudación
tax
and
taking
that
away
from
AF,
such
as
the
case
here,
where
you
look
at
things
through
a
fresh
lens
and
decide
whether
or
not
the
policy
needs
that
we're
around
in
a
programs.
Formation
still
exist
and
I
think
it's
pretty
clear
that
Arlington's
commitment
to
sustainability
by
orders
by
exponential
orders
of
magnitude
exceeds
the
dedicated
taxes
from
the
real
estate,
I'm.
A
That,
as
part
of
our
next
conversation,
alright
I
think
that
concludes
any
additional
motions
changes.
So
could
we
scroll
down
and
see
where
we
are
on
our
okay,
zero
dollars
of
unallocated
revenue,
probably
not
a
coincidence
that
we
have
no
more
emotions
than
at
this
time?
So
I
am
at
this
point
actually
going
to
we
have
a
motion.
A
A
Absolutely
correct
the
public
hearing.
Thank
you
very
much.
The
public
hearing
on
the
budget,
the
tax
rate
and
all
of
the
utility
and
associated
fees
has
concluded.
Thank
you
very
much
for
reminding
me
of
that
misspoke
we'll
have
public
hearing
on
our
other
items.
So
thank
you
for
the
discussion
before
we
conclude
our
markup.
We
do
have
a
what
actually
I
think
might
be
a
fairly
dis,
extensive
discussion
to
transition
to
now
in
in
this.
C
Case
can
I
just
make
one
thing
about
the
the
shredder
that
we
haven't
said
publicly,
but
that
I
think
is
important
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
This
would
be
quick,
I
promise,
but
for
many
people
who
are
perspicacious
readers
of
the
inserts
that
we
get
or
the
Flyers
that
we
get
periodically
with
our
with
our
trash
delivery,
you'll
notice
that
recycling
our
recycling
program
does
not
include
the
ability
to
recycle
shredded
paper.
So
if
you've
been
putting
that
in
your
recycling,
you've
been
doing
it
wrong.
C
If
you
shred
at
home,
it
actually
is
supposed
to
go
in
the
trash
due
to
something
about
I.
Guess
the
particles
not
being
compatible
with
our
I,
don't
really
understand
it.
Other
communities
do
in
fact
recycle
shredded
paper,
but
as
I've
recently
learned
that
people
who
actually
utilize
the
county
shredding
services,
the
remnants
of
those
shredding
ZAR
actually
recycled.
C
So
there
is
a
level
of
sustainability
that
comes
from
that
modest
investment
in
the
shredding
program
and
maybe
perhaps
I'll
be
thinking
about,
if
not
budget
direction
and
guidance,
but
just
a
desire
to
see
if
whether
or
not
we
can
increase
the
ability
for
people
who
may
shred
off-site
from
the
county
shredding
services
to
take
advantage
of
the
recycling
of
the
shreds
that
we
are
currently
contracting.
With
someone
to
do.
Thank.
A
You
for
that
public
service
announcement
regarding
home
shredding
as
well
all
right,
so
we
have,
of
course
to
accompany
these
allocations.
Some
guidance
I
am
going
to
share
what
I
believe
might
be
something
like
a
consensus
draft
at
this
point.
Put
it
up
for
discussion,
see
if
there
is
any
discussion
on
it.
If
not,
is
that
coming
up
to
y'all?
Have
it?
A
Okay,
if
not
I,
have
one
item
to
propose
to
add
that
my
colleagues
have
not
had
as
much
time
to
review
so
I'm
going
to
propose
it
for
introducing
for
discussion
now,
and
then
we
can
take
a
vote
on
Saturday
and
I
know.
Mr.
vice
tat
has
an
element
for
which
he
intends
to
do
the
same.
I
am
NOT
going
to
read
this
in
great
detail.
We
referenced
earlier
in
the
manager
gave
us
a
high-level
presentation
about
the
public
safety
compensation
proposal
on
how
that
is
evolved.
A
The
upshot
this
guidance
would
acknowledge
that
our
the
board
is
in
this
budget,
providing
about
1.6
million
in
reallocated
funding
for
further
enhancements
to
address
the
areas
of
greatest
needs.
It
also
recognizes
that
this
commits
us
to
I
think
it's.
The
the
total
is
about
10
to
12
million
dollars
in
fiscal
2012.
A
Unfreezing
positions
I
think
it's
incredibly
important
that
we
take
ownership
of
that
there's
nothing
that
we
will
do
in
the
fiscal
19
got
budget
guidance.
Of
course
that
commits
us
to
any
particular
outcome:
Visa
Visa
tax
rate
or
anything
else
in
fiscal
23.
This
guidance
we
are
publicly
stating
that
we
take
ownership
of
that
implication
for
the
fiscal
20
budget.
A
An
additional
piece
here
is:
if
we
can,
if
I
could
get
our
deputy
clerk
to
scroll
down
a
little
bit
is
the
recognition
of
the
need
to
update
our
pay
philosophy,
and
so
we
will
be
in
asking-
or
this
see
me,
this
guidance
rather
proposes
that
the
manager
I
might
need
you
to
keep
scrolling
I'm.
Sorry
on
the
next
page,
no
good.
A
It
up-
oh
great,
thank
you.
I.
Think
one
of
the
things
that
became
clear
to
us
in
conversations
with
Public
Safety
throughout
this
budget
process
is
that
we
were
struggling
with
an
outdated
compensation
philosophy.
We
lacked
the
sufficient
adopted
policy
guidance
to
help
us
make
decisions
about
who
the
competitor
jurisdiction
should
be
and
what
our
own
values
were
with
regard
to
compensation,
and
so
this
guidance
asks
the
manager
to
do
what.
A
Frankly,
what
I
imagine
he
was
already
going
to
do,
which
is
work
with
the
stakeholders
to
develop
a
revised,
revised
compensation
philosophy
and
to
bring
that
back
to
us
for
consideration
in
July
of
2018
scrolling
down.
We
have
a
couple
of
other
items
of
guidance
again,
not
unfamiliar
to
those
have
been
with
us
throughout
these
series
of
budget
conversations.
A
This
is
we'll
adjust
it
actually,
because
the
amount
of
money
has
changed
slightly
with
regard
to
the
Lee
Highway
planning
process,
but
it
does
affirm
the
board's
commitment
that
the
scope
of
work
for
the
Lee
Highway
planning
process
really
should
include
the
full
corridor.
One
of
the
things
we
heard
a
lot
of
concern
about
with
the
decrease
in
revenue
is
that
we,
the
the
county's
staff
and
consultant,
would
take
more
of
a
noddle
approach
to
planning
and
I.
Think
we've
heard
for
a
lot
of
reasons,
actually,
some
of
which
were
enumerated
by
mr.
A
Our
LinkedIn
independent
media
we've
heard
from
a
lot
of
supporters
of
Arlington,
independent
media,
and
so
this
guidance
is
designed
to
address
I
think
what
is
probably
going
to
be
a
structural
problem
going
forward,
which
is
that
pegg
public
education
government
funding
that
we
receive
related
to
cable
television,
franchise
fees
is
declining.
Please
should
I
pause,
no.
B
A
And
I,
were
we
were
talking
about
this
very
thing
earlier.
I
am
open
to
kind
of
tweaking,
either
now
at
this
table,
or
amendments
on
Saturday
to
make
this
as
clear
as
possible,
without
being
so
excessively
prescriptive,
in
the
guidance
that
it
hamstrings
County
staff
to
work
out
the
details,
I
will
tell
you
what
I
am
envisioning
based
on
conversations
I've
had
with
each
of
my
colleagues
is
that
the
county
would
provide
seventy
thousand
dollars
in
additional
one-time
funding
contingent
on
Arlington
independent
media
matching
the
County.
A
Seventy
thousand
dollars
with
at
least
thirty
five
additional
thousand
dollars,
and
that
would
be
done
through
it
doesn't
need
to
be
a
distinct
and
designated
match
campaign
simply
non-governmental
revenues.
But
please
do
hold
thoughts
on
that.
If
colleagues
would
like
to
be
further
prescriptive
about
it
or
staff
would
recommend
that
it'll
be
easier
for
the
dts
team
to
engage
with
more
specificity
happy
to
do
that.
A
So,
in
addition
to
the
match
guidance,
the
the
guidance
does
seem
to
seek
to
address
again
when
I
indicated
might
be
sort
of
an
ongoing
problem
that
could
recur
where
we
to
simply
make
available
this
funding
and
then
leave
it
alone.
Until
next
year
we
are
asking
the
manager
to
please
engage
in
a
significant
review
of
Arlington
television
and
Arlington
independent
media
about
how
video
production
is
done.
The
the
the
assets
and
capabilities,
the
related
cost
and
importantly,
a
comparison
of
how
other
jurisdictions
handle
the
provision
of
PEG
services
to
their
residents.
A
We
got
a
little
bit
of
insight
into
this
during
the
budget
work
session,
but
I
think
for
my
part
and
I
believe
for
my
colleagues.
We
feel
like
there's
a
lot
more
we'd
like
to
know
particularly
about
how,
for
example,
Fairfax
and
Montgomery
County
engage
in
the
contracting
out
of
their
public
television
services.
We
wanted
to
reference
here,
Arlington
educational
TV,
ie
TV,
which
is
the
school's
version.
To
some
extent,
there
are
three
television
production
facilities
and
publicly
supported
television
production
facilities
in
Arlington,
County,
the
third
being
the
schools.
A
We
recognize
that
the
funding,
of
course,
of
AE
TV,
is
under
the
purview
of
our
colleagues
on
the
school
board.
We
do
not
have
the
authority
to
make
changes
to
it,
but
we
do
ask
the
board
or
the
manager
rather
to
please
consult
with
the
superintendent
on
this
issue
and
and
share
findings
with
him
and
present
the
results.
That's
analysis,
no
to
us
no
later
than
the
end
of
the
year,
December
14
2018
as
well
as
present,
of
course,
our
link
to
independent
media
for
its
reactions.
A
Well,
ahead
of
the
conversation
surrounding
the
fiscal
20
budget.
The
final
item
to
present
for
now
is
regarding
the
Northern
Virginia
juvenile
detention
center.
This
was
an
item
that
came
up
pretty
extensively
in
our
conversation
with
the
courts.
We
know
it
mirrors
of
conversations
that
our
counterparts
in
Alexandria
have
had
about
the
funding
of
this
facility,
and
this
guidance
is
designed
to
accompany
essentially
the
allocation
of
funding
that
is
in
the
managers
budget
that
were
likely
to
adopt,
which
is
our
share
of
the
envy
JDC
operating
costs.
A
We
have
the
very
happy
circumstance
of
declining
utilization.
We
joked
the
other
day
that
this
might
be
the
only
public
facility
and
certainly
allowing
youth-serving
facility
in
arlington
county
that
is
under
capacity
and
that's
a
wonderful
thing.
It
has,
however,
maybe
exposed
some
differences
of
opinion
or
concerns
about
how
the
facility
will
continue
to
operate
with
declining
utilization,
and
so
this
guidance
rekka
firms,
or
rather
endorses
a
staff
level
effort
to
evaluate
the
juvenile
detention
center
services
and
its
future
I'll
point
out
here.
A
Part
of
the
reason
and
I
believe
it's
important
for
us
to
adopt
this
guidance.
Is
that
again
it
matches
what
our
counterparts
in
Alexandria
have
done.
It's
a
way
of
signaling
that
we
share
their
commitment
to
this
study.
Let
me
pause
there
for
discussion
of
these
four
items
for
guidance
again.
I'm
gonna
have
one
new
item
for
for
consideration
to
introduce
myself
that
I'll
make
as
a
formal
amendment
on
Saturday
and
I
know.
Mr.
Vyse
dad
intends
to
do
the
same,
but
on
these
four
items,
mr.
Weiser
thank.
D
You
so
no
no
issues
with
respect
to
the
to
the
first
three
I
think
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction.
With
respect
to
number
four,
it's
really
more
of
an
observation.
I
certainly
applaud
the
direction
of
the
guidance,
but
you
know
we're
referencing.
Our
current
partners
here
on
the
Regional
Jail,
the
city
of
Alexandria
and
Falls
Church,
City
and
I'm,
wondering
by
not
referencing
Fairfax
County
here.
Does
that
preclude
us
from
exploring
regional
synergies
with
the
county
of
Fairfax
who's?
Not
currently
a
partner
in
this
facility.
I
C
No
particular
order
if
we
can
go
to
I
guess
three:
the
aim
guidance
which
doesn't
meet
our
usual
standards.
For
being
short,
so
there's
a
lot
to
unpack
here.
No
criticism
I
know,
there's
a
lot
to
do
so.
Mr.
manager
question
primarily
for
you.
How
would
you
see
a
match
program
being
evaluated
by
staff,
we're
losing
a
cable
administrator
correct?
Yes,
so
who
would
who
would
verify
that
the
requirements
for
any
match,
however,
we
construct
have
been
met?
Who
would.
B
So
I've
had
maybe
a
20-second
conversation
with
the
county
attorney
on
this,
which
is
that
we
would
structure
some
sort
of
grant
agreement
with
a
I.
Am
that
says
they
would
receive
the
$70,000
upon
some
condition
that
we
would
include
in
the
grant.
That
would
show
enhanced,
fundraising
above
the
current
level
that
they
have
and
they
have
some
tests
for
them
to
meet.
To
show
that
that
happened.
If
that's
your
question,
it.
C
Is
that's
way
too
complicated
for
me,
I
got
to
say,
colleagues
I
think
it's
not
our
line
of
business
I
they
just
you
just
quite
frankly
to
me
it
doesn't
make
any
sense.
I
think
you
could
do
something
a
lot
cleaner.
You
know,
first
of
all,
that
the
70,000
is
held
in
abeyance
until
that
that
objective
that
milestone
is
reached
to
me
seems
somewhat
punitive.
C
What
I
would
encourage
us
to
do
is
to
think
about
an
allocation,
and
you
know
setting
a
fundraising
target
for
them
to
demonstrate
at
the
conclusion
of
the
year
to
be
eligible
to
apply
for
funding
in
future
years.
You
know
the
whole
idea
that
we
are
going
to
that.
We
are
going
to
develop
the
competency
and
and
have
the
wherewithal
to
evaluate
whether
the
criteria
for
a
match
was
met
is
just
not
what
we
do
so
I
would
encourage
us
to
move
away
from
that.
C
A
There
actually
one
of
the
interesting
things
about
being
chairs
that
your
proposed
work
product
is
the
the
best
effort
to
incorporate
a
lot
of
different
perspectives.
I
don't
feel
strongly
about
it.
I
would
associate
myself
with
your
comments
and,
in
fact,
would
maybe
propose
a
way
to
integrate
that
now,
but
I'd
like
to
give
my
colleagues
who
felt
more
strongly
about
a
match,
an
opportunity
to
comment
on
their
position
on
it
all
right.
Hearing.
H
D
D
Honestly
I
mean
at
least
one
of
the
one
of
the
things
that
I
like
to
think
about
and
I
like
to
look
look
at
when
we're
evaluating
partnerships
with
all
our
nonprofits
is
what
is
their
base
of
support
in
the
community
and
what
has
come
up
from
the
grassroots
membership
of
that
nonprofit
and
how
are
they
doing
in
broadening
their
support
base
from
other
than
county
funds?
And
so
to
me
this
is
an
important
component
and
I
have
to
say.
D
I
I
was
struck
and
pleasantly
so
by
the
great
outpouring
and
demonstration
of
community
support
for
aim,
not
just
on
the
part
of
the
aim
infrastructure,
if
you
will,
but
so
many
other
people
in
the
in
the
community.
Who
could
speak
about
it
and
I
think
about
the
benefits
of
a
very
robust
community,
television
and
radio
and
media
system,
and
if
all
that
energy
could
be
concentrated
and
harnessed
in
ongoing
fundraising
capacity,
but
via
this
match,
I
think
it
would
be
terrific
and,
while
aim
has
stepped
up
its
its
it's
a
revenue.
D
A
I
might
suggest
I
think
a
way
forward
actually
is
I.
Think
what
mr.
Dorsey
had
suggested
with
regard
to
their
eligibility
for
additional
funding
in
fiscal
2010
dn't
on
the
the
achievement
of
that
match,
might
honor
the
the
sort
of
spirit
that's
motivating.
What
mr.
Vyse
does
just
commented
on,
but
perhaps
be
more
technically
possible
to
implement,
so
I
might
encourage
you,
mr.
E
I
just
I'm
just
thinking
about
this,
because
it's
new
and
I
really
appreciate
all
this
I
think
the
most
important
thing
that
we
want
to
do
and
I
agree
that
the
outpouring
of
support
and
thing
is
great
but
make
really
clear
that
moving
forward.
We
can't
keep
doing
it
the
same
way.
We've
been
doing
it
and
you
know
bringing
up
the
fact
that
this
study
and
looking
at
we've
got
three
separate.
You
know
kind
of
public
television
stations
is
so
something
we
really
do
need
to
look
at.
E
C
C
D
C
Not
not
even
that
I
don't
know
I,
just
like
the
number
to
be
based
based
on
something.
You
know
there
many
ways
in
which
nonprofits
go
about
sustaining
themselves.
There
there's
you
know
grants
there
is.
There
are
other
ways
that
you
can
generate
revenue
if
you
sell
goods
and
services
there,
also
in
kind
contributions
that
offset
things.
C
C
B
That
is
an
excellent
question
and
I
think
you're
channeling
the
same
questions
I
got
from
mr.
Belcher
and
a
few
other
people
on
staff.
There
had
been
a
question
about
whether
we
would
need
to
hire
someone
to
assist
with
this
analysis.
I
hadn't
made
a
final
conclusion
on
that
there
are
some
funds
still
available
in
the
county
managers
contingent,
not
a
lot
that
would
in
the
past,
we've
had
some
outside
assistance
with
this.
It
may
require
us
to
do
that.
I,
just
I,
don't
have
a
firm
answer
for
you
right
now.
Okay,
thank.
C
You
and,
as
part
of
this
analysis,
could
there
also
be
hearkening
back
to
the
previous
conversation
that
the
mr.
guts,
all
thankfully
you
know,
caused
us
to
reflect
on?
Are
you
prepared,
as
part
of
this
analysis,
to
give
the
business
case
for
why
you
think,
thinking
of
separating
the
allocations
to
the
peg
channels
from
the
franchise
fees?
Why
that's,
in
the
best
business
case
for
the
county
moving
forward?
Will
that
be
a
part
of
this
analysis
that
is
produced
I.
B
Want
to
make
sure
that
I
have
your
questions,
so
your
question
is
based
on
that
I'm
going
to
need
some
help
here,
Steve,
based
on
an
assumption
that,
for
the
revenues
that
we
get
in
as
part
of
the
franchise
are
going
to
the
operating
costs
and
I,
don't
actually
think
that's
accurate
under
a
new
franchisee
right
under
a
new
franchisee,
we
get
the
the
funds
we
get
in,
which
is
a
dollar
something.
Purse
subscribe
to
go
to
the
capital
costs
and
this
is
addressing
the
operating
costs.
That's.
C
B
Numbers
out
yes,
I
know
yes,
I'm
gonna
retire,
the
random
number
generator.
After
this,
the
ten
percent
amount
was
the
amount
that
was
noted
by
the
board
last
year,
and
a
reduction
of
support
to
a
I
am
on
a
year-over-year
basis.
So
I
thought
that
was
a
good
place
to
do
that
in
consultation
with
the
chair.
B
That
was
the
language
we
came
in,
the
50
percent
was
meant
to
pick
a
percentage
that
would
require
a
fundamental
rethinking
without
an
elimination
of
both
the
Arlington
TV
production
facilities
and
what
a
a
I
M
does
the
20
percent.
To
be
honest
with
you
is
just
a
another
flavor
of
another
option,
all.
A
Know
I
want
to
speak
to
this
guidance
just
a
little
bit,
which
is
I
the
pleasure
of
serving
as
a
ims
board
liaison
for
the
past
couple
years
and
appreciate
mr.
Getchell
succeeding
me
in
that
role,
and
you
know,
in
addition
to
just
coming
to
incredibly
appreciate
the
the
rich
resource
they
provide
for
our
community,
which
has
been
so
well
made
by
a
great
number
of
their
members
and
listeners
and
interns
and
young
people
throughout
the
past
couple
of
months.
A
But
I
think
it
also
really
did
make
clear
that
we
are
at
a
bit
of
an
inflection
point
for
how
public
media
is
financed,
whether
it's
affiliated
with
the
government
or
independent
and
to
me
I,
feel
strongly
about
including
some
guidance
that
calls
this
question
about.
The
future
of
a
TV
and
I
am
in
to
the
extent
we
can
work
with
the
superintendent,
a
ETV
because
I
think
otherwise.
A
Don't
know
that
the
the
the
study
that
we've
charted
out
here
is
the
perfect
one
to
answer
all
the
questions,
but
I
do
know
without
an
honest
and
and
sincere
look
at
the
future
of
these
different
provisions
of
public
media,
we
are
going
to
be
set
in
for
having
the
same
conversation
again
in
fiscal,
2011
and
so
forth.
So
that
at
least
is
the
spirit,
but
I
would
certainly
accept
any
further
amendments
to
the
language
or
suggestions
regarding
the
language.
A
You
any
other
questions
all
right
if
mr.
Vyse,
that
will
indulge
me,
I'd
love
to
present
one
additional
item
first,
which
I've
shared
with
our
clerk.
The
spirit
of
this
is
should
not
be
new
to
any
of
my
colleagues
and,
in
fact
carries
on
the
conversation
we
were
actually
just
having
about
the
air
program,
but
the
language
is
relatively
new.
My
colleagues
have
done
as
much
time
to
look
at
it
and
so
I
didn't
want
to
present
it
as
part
of
the
as
the
guidance
I'll
offer
it.
As
an
amendment
on
Saturday,
the
air.
A
A
So
this
is
a
recognition
of
exactly
what
we
were
just
talking
about
that
we
recognize
this
is
sort
of
the
board,
taking
some
accountability
or
understanding
for
the
fact
that
the
managers
recommendations
do
sever,
that
historic
relationship
between
the
residential
and
commercial
utility
taxes
from
the
air
program,
but
seeks
to
get
to
the
heart
of
the
matter
and
in
some
way
capture
what
mr.
Dorsey
was
indicating
earlier,
which
is
even
without
the
the
one-for-one
designation
of
our
UT
revenue.
A
It
is
almost
certainly
true
that
our
commitments
and
our
expenditures,
even
on
sustainability
programs,
throughout
the
county
and
throughout
public
schools
and
on
behalf
of
our
commercial
partners,
which
is
what
the
original
community
energy
plan
was,
was
really
designed
to
engender
that
all
of
those
expenditures
really
greatly
exceed
anything.
We
were
getting
from
that
residential
utility
tax.
A
This
is
a
timely
question
or
conversation
to
be
having
because
the
community
energy
plan
update
is
happening
this
calendar
year,
and
so
this
is
guidance
that
would
ask
the
manager
and
and
through
him
staff
to
bring
forward
a
template
as
part
of
the
CP
update.
That
would
really
measure
the
full
breadth
of
related
issues,
related
efforts
across
our
sustainability
program
areas
and
resulting
outcomes
so
that
we're
really
best
tracking
our
progress.
I
think
this.
A
F
Very
much
appreciate
the
sentiment
behind
the
proposed
language
here
and
and
I'll
have
to
think
about
it
over
the
next
few
hours
and
see
what
I
might
be
able
to
offer
of
anything
but
to
help
improve
it,
and
my
fundamental
concern
with
the
discussion
that
we've
had
this
this
evening
on
both
my
motion
and
now
this
language
is
I've,
worried
that
we
have
lost
sight
a
little
bit
of
how
we
have
as
a
community,
taken
the
lead
and
managed
to
to
push
the
envelope
forward
in
terms
of
our
sustainability
of
core.
There's
no
question.
F
F
It's
all
true
we're
committed,
but
as
we
move
into
as
we've
talked
about
much
in
this
budget
cycle
that
we
are
moving
into
an
era
that
is
going
to
force
us
to
make
very,
very
difficult
choices,
that's
when
the
resist
that
the
temptation
will
be
strongest
to
falter
in
our
commitment.
That's
why
we
had
a
utility
tax
that
was
that
was
set
up
specifically
to
make
sure
that
we
held
that
firm.
I
think
that
this
is
a
a
step
in
the
wrong
direction.
F
F
Give
me
more
give
me
more
without
being
willing
to
offer
where
to
come
from
so
I'm,
not
trying
to
revisit
that
motion
right
now,
other
than
to
say
that
I
think
a
demonstration
of
our
commitment
would
be
not
the
full
22
million
of
the
utility
tax,
but
to
put
some
kind
of
of
firm
allocation
of
the
utility
tax
revenue
still
towards
envelope-pushing
programs.
Things
that
are
that
are
really
pushing
us
into
others,
and
I
will
concede
that
maybe
the
rebate
program
is
past
its
prime
and
that's
probably
direction
that
that.
F
A
I
appreciate
that
very
much
and
welcome
any
thoughts
you
have
to
about
how
to
capture
that
notion
of
seed
money
for
innovation,
because
I
do
think
that
will
persist.
The
the
only
thing
I
would
observe,
as
we
finish
up
a
painfull
budget
year
and
head
into
a
series
of
additionally
painful
budget
years,
is
that
for
a
long
time
in
this
county,
the
way
we've
showed
that
we
care
about
something
is
to
put
dollars
to
it.
That's
been
true
for
sustainability,
that's
been
true
for
nearly
every
value
we
have
as
a
community.
A
I
think
that
would
be
setting
the
groundwork
for
us
to
be
seen
as
backing
off
to
all
kinds
of
things
that
we
will
retain
our
strong
commitment
to
no
matter
the
budgetary
circumstances.
All
right.
Let
me
turn
things
over
to
mr.
Vyse
that
then
Salona
yeah,
who
I
think
has
an
item.
Similarly
for
consideration,
if
not
kind
of
resolution
today,
sure.
D
D
That's
correct!
Okay!
So
obviously-
and
this
is
actually
a
perfect
segue
from
miss
Crystal's
remarks-
that
clearly
one
of
the
biggest
challenges
that
we're
confronting
is
managing
shaping
and
coping
with
our
growth
and
the
community
facilities
study,
which
many
of
you
will
remember
from
2015,
actually
anticipated
some
of
the
hard
choices
that
we're
having
to
make
today
and
in
years
in
the
future.
This
is
a
copy
of
it.
I'm
sure
you
all
have
it
on
your
nightstands.
D
You
know
the
community
facilities
study
was
chaired
by
former
county
board
member
John
Milliken,
who
sat
at
this
table
not
terribly
long
ago,
as
well
as
former
planning,
Commissioner
ginger
Brown,
and
the
community
facilities
study.
Like
so
many
other
community
engagement
initiatives
in
Arlington
was
very
worthwhile
for
what
it
produced
and
the
recommendations
that
ensued.
There
were
21
key
recommendations,
one
of
them
being
the
one
that
I
would
like
us
to
see
move
forward.
D
So
the
caption
development
projects
cost-benefit
analysis,
the
county
board,
acknowledges
a
major
recommendation
of
the
2015
community
facility
study,
which
calls,
for
quote
an
economic
and
fiscal
impact
section
to
private
development.
Special
exception
site
plan
inform
based
code
project
staff
reports
to
provide
information
on
the
costs,
for
example,
the
projected
service
demands
and
other
costs
to
the
community
and
benefits,
for
example,
the
taxes
and
other
economic
benefits
likely
to
be
generated
by
the
proposed
project.
D
Accordingly,
the
board
directs
the
manager,
with
the
assistance
of
the
county
attorney,
to
explore
options
for
implementing
this
recommendation,
including,
alternatively,
and
that
will
need
to
go
in
the
in
the
final
language
that
we
review
on
Saturday,
including,
alternatively,
on
a
retrospective
periodic
review
basis.
That
would
include
multiple
projects
over
a
regular
set
period
of
time,
I'm
also
planning
on
adding
land
mr.
manager
that
I
want
to
be
sensitive
to
the
ongoing
C
PhD
priorities,
so
I'm
planning
on
adding
language.
That
would
say
something
to
this
effect.
D
D
We
don't,
in
my
view,
do
enough
of
looking
either
in
the
near
term
or
later
of
the
true
implications
of
those
developments
on
schools,
parks,
field,
space,
libraries
polling
places,
community
centers,
fire
stations,
Public
Safety
streets,
transportation,
transit
and
other
community
infrastructure.
This
would
allow
us
to
do
so.
Many
other
jurisdictions
in
Virginia
do
so
and
across
the
country,
including
our
near
neighbors.
D
A
C
C
It's
not
just
simply
a
matter
of
figuring
out
how
this
the
output
is
not,
and
I
just
want
to
earth
this,
not
as
a
way
to
poopoo
this,
but
just
to
fully
flesh
it
out,
because
it's
important
for
our
public
to
hear
this.
This
is
going
to
require
that
we
hire
someone
who's
skilled
in
econometrics.
We're
gonna
have
to
hire
a
regional
economist.
We
have
to
make
provisions
if
this
is
something
that
we're
going
to
pursue,
how
we're
gonna
pay
for
it.
C
This
can't
be
something
that
we
put
out
for
the
community
to
get
excited
about
interested
in
thinking
that
we're
gonna
realize
this
anytime
soon
without
understanding
fully
what
this
will
mean
in
terms
of
growing
the
resources
that
we
we
need
to
devote
to
it.
In
addition
to
someone
with
that
skill
set
we're
probably
talking
about
some
sort
of.
C
Policy
analysts
to
work
with
them
to
figure
out
exactly
what
you
a
granade
as
far
as
costs
working
throughout
the
organization
to
figure
out
whether
or
not
we've
got
the
right
methodologies
to
analyze.
It
again,
I
put
this
all
out
there
to
say
that
this
is
a
very
huge
project
that
is
very
easy
to
articulate
delivering.
It
is
something
else,
particularly
with
the
size
of
organization
that
we
have
now
and
with
uncertainty
about
what
we
have
moving
forward.
C
So
with
all
of
that
in
mind,
I'm
very
curious
as
to
hearing
a
little
bit
more
about
what
you
would
hope
the
manager
can
give
us
for
consideration
at
the
end
of
end
of
this
year,
because,
as
we
have
gone
through
this
budget
process,
we
are
all
acutely
aware
that
not
only
have
we
not
added
resources
to
this
organization,
we
have
substantially
diminished
them
and
to
what
extent
do
you
see
and
does
the
manager
feel
that
we
have
the
capacity
to
be
responsive
to
this
timetable
in
a
way?
That's
gonna
actually
make
this
real.
Mr.
D
Mr.
Darcy
I
very
much
appreciate
what
you're
articulating
that
and
I
do
agree
with
you,
which
is
why
I
am
planning
on
adding
language
to
to
make
it
clear
that
we
do
need
to
look
at
the
potential
ramifications
for
staff
workload
for
consultants
for
a
potentially
additional
staff,
because
I
think
it's
that
important,
that
we
really
get
a
grip
on
what
our.
What
our
continued
development
implications
are
for.
D
All
the
various
community
infrastructure
and
public
facilities
that
I've
cited,
and
this
is
actually
what
the
community
facility
study
wrestled
with
those
folks,
those
20-some
all
across
the
county
back
just
three
years
ago
in
in
crafting
this
recommendation
and
similar
recommendations.
I
would
also
note
that
the
two
of
the
two
other
recommendations
that
were
an
outgrowth
of
the
community
facilities
study,
which
I
think
I've
already
paid
dividends
in
which
we've
marched
forward
on,
are
number
one.
D
The
two
by
two
two
County
Board
members
to
school
board
members
getting
together
on
a
regular
basis
and
also
the
joint
facilities.
Advisory
Commission,
which
mr.
got
shawl
and
miss
Garvey,
now
serve
as
liaisons
to
so.
I
really
view
this
as
kicking
this
to
a
next
level,
helpful
for
our
planning
and
specifically
helpful
for
our
budgeting
in
very
difficult
times.
Thank
you.
You.
E
B
E
B
E
Sounds
fine
and
I'm
fine
to
receive
it
a
few
days
earlier
or
into
into
2019
I'll
just
say
that
when
we
get
to
December
31st
2018,
we
probably
will
know
by
that
time
if
we're
going
to
have
a
certain
very
large
company
coming
here,
which
will
change
things
a
lot
and
look
require
a
lot
of
study
and
input
on
this
area.
So
it
seems
like
not
bad
preparation,
at
least
to
be
thinking
about
how
we
might
be
getting
useful
information
that
we
could
use
so
I'm,
fine
with
an
analysis.
E
A
I
mean
I
reserve
my
comments
for
Saturday,
but
I
appreciate
the
mister
I
started
getting
the
conversation
started,
it's
very
helpful
to
have
both
the
language
and
your
thinking
in
advance.
Colleagues
is
there
anything
else
that
you
all
would
like
to
advance
for
potential
consideration
again,
we'll
take
it
up
on
Saturday
at
four.
Their
amendments
to
guidance
are
welcome
at
that
time.
Although
I
think
this
board
generally
doesn't
react
well
to
surprises,
so
anyone
thinking
of
anything
else
to
make
it
known
all
right,
seeing
nothing
further.
C
C
To
give
this
board
a
better
opportunity
to
evaluate
the
impacts
of
the
cuts
that
are
proposed
and
solidified
in
the
mark-up
to
the
reprogram
so
that
we
as
a
board
can
have
a
better
understanding
of
how
that
program
operates
and
whether
or
not
they're
able
to
meet
the
service
delivery
and
program
outcomes
that
we're
expecting
that
they
can
but
to
actually
see
whether
or
not
that's
true
and
to
not
wait
until
next
year's
budget
to
to
actually
consider
that.
So
to
come
up
with
some
idea
for
contemporaneous
monitoring
throughout
the
year.
I
Just
of
course,
that
oversight,
responsibility
for
the
reap
program
does
side
with
APs,
and
so
how
that
you
know
how
that
how
that
particular
guidance
is
structured
and
how
County
staff
then
plays
that
role,
since
we
don't
obviously
control
salary
setting
and
those
types
of
things
so
I
just
want
to.
However,
we
work
that
I
just
want
to
keep
that
in
mind.
It's.
C
H
C
A
You
excellent
and
encourage
you
to
avail
yourself
of
miss
Collins
expertise
in
that
of
our
DHHS
team,
that
I
think
I've.
Given
us
some
really
thoughtful
answers
on
a
area
of
reduction.
That
I
think
both
had
some
concerns
about
all
right,
seeing
nothing
else
before
us,
at
least
until
Saturday,
at
our
at
our
budget.
Adoption
conversation
I'm
going
to
actually
convene
now
a
closed
meeting.
