From YouTube: County Board Work Session with the Planning Commission
Description
To view the agenda, go to http://arlington.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2
A
You
know
we
rely
on
a
lot
of
citizen
input
and
expertise
and
a
whole
range
of
areas
with
all
the
advisory
boards
and
commissions,
but
the
Planning
Commission
is
the
first
among
equals.
It
really
is,
and
that
is
both
statutory.
It's
where,
where
some
authority
rests,
but
it
is
sort
of
the
lifeblood
of
what
we
do
is
building
this
place
and
doing
it
with
good
guidance
with
a
good
framework
with
a
lot
of
input,
and
we
count
on
you
to
put
in
a
lot
of
work.
A
A
lot
of
time
bring
knowledge
perspective,
sort
of
get
to
yes,
attitude,
where
that
is
possible,
which
is
most
of
the
time
and
relies
really
heavily
on
a
really
good
working
relationship
with
the
staff
which
I
think
is
is
fundamentally
important
to
have
that
communication
and
that
dialogue
and
ultimately
help
advise
and
give
the
five
county
board
members
the
kind
of
input
that
we
need
to
be
able
to
tie
things
up,
make
good
good
final
decisions.
So
today
we're
gonna
focus
on
three
things.
A
We
have
some
materials
in
front
of
us,
but
the
first
being
the
site
plan
review
committee
operating
guide,
which
I
will
reiterate
as
we
get
to
that
point
in
the
agenda,
is
a
creature
of
the
Planning
Commission
you
created
on
your
years
ago,
and
you've
worked
collaborative
the
staff
and
in
the
last
year,
or
two
to
revise
it
and
update
it
and
we'll
be
able
to
give
you
a
little
feedback
on
that.
The
next
part
is
looking
at
the
let's
see
it's
called
here:
Arlington
County's
priorities.
A
This
is
really
at
some
level,
a
marketing
communication
tool
to
help
the
community
understand
how
we
go
from
a
vision
to
projects
to
decisions
and
a
budget,
and
the
last
part
of
this
is
about
the
work
program
for
that
part
of
the
county.
These
guys
over
here
that
we
spend
so
much
time
with
designing
and
approving
and
and
shaping
and
reshaping
the
the
built
structures
in
the
community.
A
So
we'll
look
at
their
work
program
and
that's
one
where
essentially
we'll
be
making
these
decisions
later,
but
we'd
like
your
thoughts
in
advance,
to
give
us
some
ideas
about.
What's
on
your
mind
about
what
what
seems
to
be
most
valuable,
most
important
to
be
on
that
work,
plan
and
other
thoughts
you
may
have
so
the
board
members
can
digest
that
at
the
early
part
of
18.
So
again
we
have
two
hours,
we'll
finish
by
9:00
I
promise
you
that
and
look
forward
to
the
conversation.
Eric
did
you
have
a
couple
words
I.
B
We
have
a
relatively
I,
don't
wanna,
say
young,
although
there
are
some
young,
some
young
first,
a
relatively
fresh,
Commission
and
I
think
that
that's
a
great
thing
and
the
depth
and
breadth
that
the
Commission
represents
across
the
community
a
lot
of
very,
very
dedicated
folks
who,
as
you
guys
know,
give
a
considerable
amount
of
time
and
service
to
the
community
and
and
I
think
we're
very
excited
to
do
that.
It's
it's
a
labor
of
love
for
everyone,
who's
on
the
Commission
and
so
really
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
do
so.
B
I
think
the
items
that
are
on
the
agenda
tonight,
what
you'll
see
is,
is
appropriate
and
a
good
way,
I
think
to
look
at
how
can
the?
How
can
the
Commission
best
serve
this
board
and
best
serve
the
community
moving
forward
and
recognizing
that
the
world
is
not
static?
Things?
Don't
change.
Are
things
don't
stay?
The
same
things
are
constantly
changing.
The
Commission
is
eager
to
evolve
evolving
and
how
we
do
things.
B
How
we
can
be
more
efficient,
better
partners
working
with
our
development
community
and
bringing
together
community
interests
looking
at
the
public
realm
will
see
that
Jane,
as
our
my
vice
chair
here,
has
done
great
work
as
SPRC
chair
this
year
and
up
and
working
to
update
the
operating
guidelines,
and
we
certainly
look
forward
to
the
discussion
about
the
the
work
plan,
because
there's
an
awful
lot
of
things
that
that
the
community
is
looking
for
us
to
do
from
a
planning
perspective.
So
really
we're
just
here
with
our
sleeves
rolled
up,
ready
to
get
to
work.
A
A
A
C
C
Evening,
chairman
bissette
members
of
the
board
I'll
launch
right
into
my
presentation.
Planning
Commission
is
in
the
process
of
revising
the
SPRC
operating
guide.
The
draft
itself
is
not
ready
for
primetime,
but
tonight
we
can
present
an
outline
of
the
revisions,
as
well
as
a
few
more
ideas
that
were
developed
and
approved
by
the
Planning
Commission
in
2015.
C
In
2015,
the
Planning
Commission
approved
a
number
of
revisions
to
its
work
and
procedures.
Our
goal
was
to
improve
the
efficiency
and
the
effectiveness
of
the
SPRC
process.
All
of
the
recommendations
and
revisions
are
on
the
county
website
and
there's
there's
a
link
up
there.
We
began
the
revisions
by
establishing
several
big
ideas.
The
intent
of
these
ideas
is
to
clarify
the
procedures
and
role
of
the
SPRC
and
to
make
them
clearer
to
the
public
as
well
as
two
new
commissioners.
C
We
also
created
a
revised
master
agenda,
recommending
an
upfront
presentation
of
the
context
for
a
redeveloping
site,
things
like
transportation
options,
neighborhood
services
and
amenities,
environmental
constraints,
relationship
to
neighboring
buildings
and
so
on.
We
do
get
this
information
in
site
plan
reviews,
but
we
hope
to
standardize
it
and
suggest
materials.
C
Graphic
representations
that
might
become
standard
templates
to
routinely
convey
this
context.
Information
to
the
community,
in
fact
Commissioner,
yeah,
Kamini
and
Commissioner
Atlanta
me-
will
employ
some
of
these
new
agenda
items
in
the
upcoming
Virginia
Hospital
Center
SPRC.
Another
big
idea
concerned
the
concept
review.
This
recommendation
was
spurred
by
a
concern
expressed
by
many
planning
commissioners
that
once
a
four
point,
one
application
has
been
accepted.
The
Planning
Commission
is
not
able
to
take
a
look
at
alternative
designs
ones
that
in
fact
might
be
more
consistent
with
County
policies.
C
This
frustration
has
recently
emerged
in
connection,
for
example,
with
the
67
11
Lee
highway
project.
A
staff
has
already
formally
instituted
its
own
voluntary
concept
review
and
we
applaud
this
effort.
Staff
and
the
Commission
have
yet
to
work
out
whether
commissioners
might
be
invited
to
these
concept
reviews
these
staff
reviews
or,
alternatively,
the
Planning
Commission,
could
ask
developers
to
voluntarily
inform
us
of
their
proposals
before
applying
44.1
special
exception
review
at
our
last
work
session.
C
I
believe
the
board
expressed
some
interest
in
having
the
Commission
engage
up
front
in
this
way
established
by
the
board
in
1972.
The
site
plan
review
committee
is
a
standing
committee
of
the
whole
of
the
Planning
Commission.
You
all
know
this
I'll
go
quickly
through
them.
The
bullet
points
the
SPRC
reviews,
major
special
exception,
4.1
site
plan
applications.
It
ensures
that
the
development
project
is
guided
by
the
county's,
comprehensive
plan
and
other
planning
documents
and
county
policies.
C
It
ensures
that
the
highest-quality
land-use
planning
and
design
is
incorporated
into
the
development
project
and
it
convenes
the
affected
community
to
get
feedback
on
the
development
project.
These
features
have
always
been
at
the
heart
of
the
SPRC
process.
We
hope
in
the
revised
operating
guide,
to
clarify
and
amplify
that
process.
C
The
first
SPRC
operating
guide
was
drafted
in
2005.
That
version
focused
on
the
operations
and
of
the
process.
The
new
draft
will
be
less
a
technical
manual,
although
it
will
include
a
lot
of
technical
information,
but
it
will
be
more
of
a
citizen's
guide
serving
planning
commissioners,
other
commissions
and
boards,
citizens
and
developers.
C
The
new
draft
will
communicate
in
the
first
instance.
The
fundamentals
it
will
express
a
commitment
to
the
highest
quality
of
land,
use,
planning,
development
and
placemaking,
provide
assurance
that
the
proposed
developments
are
responsive
to
the
counties,
approved
plans,
policies
and
principles
and
achieve
the
county's
long-term
development
goals.
C
C
Arlington
invites
robust
citizen
participation
and
engagement
in
its
planning
process
for
our
community.
This
is
a
valued
opportunity,
but
it
is
also
a
real
challenge.
There
is
all
too
often
an
incomplete
understanding
about
how
the
Planning
Commission,
through
the
SPRC
process,
works
to
present
to
the
board
a
coherent
citizen
view
or
review
the
draft.
The
redraft
lists
major
will
list
the
major
objectives
of
the
SPRC.
We
convene
all
stakeholders
in
a
meaningful
conversation
regarding
concerns
and
benefits
related
to
a
development
project.
C
We
facilitate
consensus
building,
we
reconcile
conflicts
and
if
that
is
not
possible,
we
would
elevate
unresolved
issues
for
the
board's
consideration.
We
discern
whether
county
plans
and
policies
are
adequately
reflected
in
a
development
proposal
also,
while
this
is
not
routine,
there
are
occasions
in
which
a
particular
development
project
or
a
suite
of
projects
may
be
consistent
with
relevant
plans,
but
do
not
support
other
important
County
goals.
The
missing
middle
comes
to
mind.
Spr
C
and
Planning.
Commission
reviews
can
be
helpful
in
signal
signaling.
These
discontinuities.
C
Finally,
the
redraft
will
focus
attention
on
the
role
of
the
SPR
C
chair.
A
description
of
the
chairs
leadership
and
management
role
will
be
included
in
the
operating
guide
redraft.
Currently,
there
is
a
separate
chairs
guide,
which
we
have
found
to
be
duplicative
and,
as
I've
said,
technical
materials
will
be
provided
in
appendices.
C
You
can
see
them
on
the
screen.
The
bylaws
master
agenda
report,
format,
concept,
review,
links
to
supporting
plans,
policies
and
principles,
key
terms
and
definitions,
I'm
leaving
one
off
because
I
want
to
make
a
comment
about
it
this
year.
Let
me
just
say
a
few
years
ago
there
was
great
concern
about
the
efficiency
of
the
SPR
C
process,
I
think
staff
and
the
Planning
Commission
have
really
made
great
strides
in
creating
more
efficiency.
We
normally
usually
not
always
complete
an
SPR,
see
in
three
meetings
and
I.
C
Think
commissioners
have
felt
that
this
amount
of
time
and
work
has
been
adequate
to
the
task
this
year.
I
hope
to
concentrate
or
the
coming
year,
I
hope
to
concentrate
a
bit
more
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
SPR
C
discussion.
There
is
that
link
under
the
final
bullet
above
the
urban
design
principles
and
templates
I've,
already
taken
a
look
and
circulated
among
commissioners,
the
Louisiana
citizens
guide
to
urban
design.
C
This
guide
provides
a
kind
of
glossary
for
the
many
diagrams
and
charts
that
show
how
a
site
operates
in
a
can
be
they're
familiar
to
us,
but
I.
It's
very
good
to
have
them
collected
in
one
place
and
and
I
think
Chris
Kreider
for
giving
me
that
material
so
going
for
it
I
hope
we
can
find
additional
ways
to
increase
the
effectiveness
of
the
SPRC
conversation
through
call.
It.
Education,
new
and
old
commissioners
always
request
training
in
education,
but
we
have
to
admit
it
places
a
burden
on
an
already
busy
staff.
C
However,
we
feel
we
can
provide
further
education
by
providing
information
on
land-use
and
urban
planning
to
the
public
and
SPRC
participants
in
ways
yet
to
be
determined.
Thank
you
so
much
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
bring
these
issues
to
you
today.
There
are
next
slide.
Oh
I
was
wasn't
even
watching
the
slides
go
by
there
are
suggested
discussion,
questions
are
there
there.
B
C
Are
two
of
them
really
ask
you
to
give
us
some
guidance
or
views
about
whether
what
I've
said
what
you
glean
for?
What
from
what
I've
said,
will
in
fact
help
communicate
what
the
SPRC
is
all
about
to
the
public,
create
increase
their
understanding
and
the
the
the
last
question
really
is
about
whether
you
feel
this
sort
of
take
on
how
to
provide
additional
education
through
the
SPRC
through
the
processes.
We
actually
saw
this
last
night
when
Commissioner
Sherrill
chaired
the
11th
and
Vermont
SPRC.
C
A
There
are
any
harder
ones:
people
have
or
any
different
ones.
Please
go
for
it,
but
I
think
we're
all
going
to
agree
that
having
this
document
and
as
I
understand
the
the
genesis
of
this,
it
was
an
internal
document.
It
was
used
to
help
the
members
of
the
Planning
Commission
and
the
SPRC
understand
their
role
and
function.
I
think
Pamela
Gillan
was
the
first
to
decide.
A
Putting
something
in
writing
would
be
useful
and
now
the
point
is
there
are,
and
there
always
have
been,
but
there
are
so
many
more
points
of
contact
and
information
and
that
making
this
more
available,
as
you
say,
as
as
some
of
my
colleagues
use
the
term
outward-facing
I've
learned
that
term
outward-facing
that
it
is
a
value
to
it
right
and
so
I
think
that
the
first
two
questions
here
my
sense
is
pretty
easy
that
to
the
degree
they
help
shed
light
on
how
it
works.
What
you
do
what's
expected,
what
the
roles
are?
A
D
E
I
just
wanted
to
share
my
answer
is
yes
throughout
I,
similarly
support
the
idea
of
having
some
outsider
outside
of
our
core
planning
process.
Citizens
take
a
look
and-
and
it
does
occur
to
me-
I'm
thinking
in
particular
and
I
know.
Many
of
us
were
an
attendant
at
the
first
kickoff
for
the
Virginia
Hospital
Center
planning
process.
E
One
thread
that
I
wanted
to
pull
on
a
really
elevate
actually
was,
as
you
all
finalize
this
content
was.
It
was
a
comment
you'd
made
Jane
about
about
the
SPRC
and
its
objectives,
which
was
you
know,
consensus,
building,
facilitating
inputs,
reconciling
conflicts
were
possible.
One
observation
I
have
about
SP
RCS
and
then
I
think
I've
seen
it
even
more
acutely
with
public
facilities,
review
processes
or
even
I
know.
Kathleen,
McSweeney
and
I
have
been
having
this
conversation
recently
in
context
of
the
Career
Center
working
group,
I.
E
Think
there's,
there's
often
concern
in
the
community
about
appointments,
I
think
a
lot
of
times.
Community
members
will
feel
if
I
don't.
If
my
neighborhood
or
my
block
doesn't
have
a
representative
on
the
body,
then
then
I'll
be
out
voted
or
my
concerns
will
be
outweighed
and
one
conversation
I
often
find
myself
having
with
community
members,
is
about
how
the
SP
RCP,
FRC
or
any
other
working
group
does
its
work
and
its
goal
to
really
explore
concerns,
rather
than
to
put
decisive
issues
on
the
table
and
take
a
vote
where
the
majority
will
prevail.
E
F
You,
mr.
chairman,
welcome
is
Segal
and
mr.
Gunn
Shaw,
so
Jane
I'm
really
glad
that
that
you
folks
have
zeroed
in
on
question
number
three,
because
when
we
talk
about
education,
that
education
usually
comes
in
a
site-specific
ad
hoc
fashion,
you
know
it's
in
connection
with
the
Washington
Boulevard
Kirkwood
glup
or
four
mile
run
or
Reed
school
or
whatever.
How
can
we?
How
can
we
take
that?
The
level-
and
you
know
what
I'm
wondering
is
and
I
remember
and
some
some
people
who
especially
have
been
around
a
longer
period
of
time,
may
remember.
F
You
know
that
there
have
been
various
community
forums
from
time
to
time
that
have
been.
You
know
akin
to
like
a
planning
101
or
the
ABCs
of
the
comprehensive
plan,
or
something
like
that.
Is
there
something
that
we
could
work
out,
perhaps
in
a
collaborative
effort
with
staff
and
the
Planning
Commission?
F
Maybe
the
Civic
Federation
for
some
sort
of
overarching
community
educational
fora
and
and
I
don't
know
you
know:
we've
we've
got
to
be
sensitive
to
budget
and
staff
time
and
and
bandwidth
and
everything,
but
I'm
just
wondering
if
we
could
take
it
up
and
not
have
something
brought
more
broad-based,
more
widely
attended
and
more
generic.
If
you
will,
then
you
know
our
our
site-specific
focuses
and
I'd
appreciate
your
thoughts
and
also
staff
thoughts
on
that.
B
Actually
I'll
jump
in
if
you
don't
mind
so
interesting
enough.
Mr.
Vyse
said
I
was
at
the
meeting
with
neh
up
earlier
today
and
I
sort
of
that
idea,
kind
of
came
up
because
I
also
I,
let
them
know
I
gave
them
the
short
version
of
Jane's
great
presentation
here
this
evening.
Just
the
idea
that
we
were
finally
moving
forward.
B
You
know
with
revising
the
SPRC
operating
guide,
as
you
know,
that
think
they
were
pretty
heavily
involved
a
few
years
back
in
terms
of
seeking
revisions
and
some
greater
efficiency
and
more
clarity
and
certainty
from
the
SPRC
process,
and
they
offered
up
that
at
one
point:
I
guess
they
had,
or
they
do
from
time
to
time
offer
a
developer.
You
know
development,
101
kind,
of
course,
and
they
they
sort
of
proffered
that
they
would
be
very
willing
partners
to
participate
in
some
kind
of
educational
outreach.
B
That
we
would
want
to,
you
know,
want
to
explore,
but
I
think
the
fact
that
cuz
they
made
the
other
point,
which
I
think
does
dovetail
into
your
light.
Your
last
point
about
the
cost
and
the
resources
here
is
that,
from
their
perspective,
delay
in
the
process
is
very
expensive
to
them,
so
it's
money
well
spent
for
them
and
they
referenced
that
they
agreed
to.
B
When
we
converted
our
plan
review
plan,
I
guess
most
of
C
PhD
is
now
in
an
enterprise
system
right
where
they,
the
the
fees,
the
permit
fees,
pay
for
all
of
these
planners
and
all
of
the
review
in
the
process,
and
they
were
willing
participants
in
that,
and
they
still
agreed
to
that
because
they
know
that
that's
from
their
perspective,
that's
money
well
spent.
So
my
whole
point
here
is
I.
H
H
Secondly,
Chris
Kreider
is
here
this
evening,
and
the
board
commissioners
will
remember
that
mr.
Crider
and
his
staff
put
together
two
forums
that
focused
on
what
vice-chair
sequel
mentioned
night
on
urban
design,
principles
and
practices,
and
so
we
have
that
as
a
ongoing
program
that
we
can
provide
to
future
commissioners
as
well
as
the
communities,
so
we're
very
interested
in
every
opportunity
that
we
can
focus
on
to
provide
and
develop
for
our
future
citizen
planners
and
commissioners.
And
so
we
look
forward
to
occurring
explore
that
with
the
Commission.
That.
F
Would
be
great
and
mr.
Duffy
I
just
have
to
say,
I,
remember
your
your
generic
and
very
well
received
presentation
at
one
of
the
Lee
Highway
alliances.
Recent
meetings
about
you
know
basically
a
planning
one
I
wanted
about.
Maybe
thirty
minutes
that
that
you
did
so
great,
more
discussion
to
come.
Thank
you.
Thank.
H
I
You
mr.
chair
banking,
this
Eagle
for
the
be
presentation
just
a
quick
note,
mr.
guts,
all
about
that
nee,
of
course,
I-
think
of
memory
service,
it's
about
seven
hundred
and
fifty
dollars,
so
please
work
with
them
on
the
cost.
Before
we
develop
any
kind
of
partnerships
with
that,
it's
it's
a
little
bit
too
too
steep
for
our
blood
here
in
Arlington.
They.
I
I
To
focus
a
little
bit
on
question
three
and
you
know
I
think
this
is
really
wonderful
that
you
want
to
serve
a
variety
of
purposes
with
this
one.
With
with
this
one
document,
I
think
it
can
be
especially
helpful
for
new
commissioners
in
terms
of
accelerating
their
onboarding
and
making
them
a
lot
more
comfortable
being
up
to
speed
as
planning
commissioners.
More
quickly,
then,
is
sometimes
been
the
case,
speaking
from
experience,
certainly
from
staff,
reducing
the
burden
on
them
to
help
facilitate
getting
new
planning
commissioners
up
to
speed.
I
This
could
serve
a
role
there
and
certainly
for
the
development
community.
As
we
well
know,
you
know.
Sometimes
you
know,
depending
on
who
the
SPRC
chair
is.
You
could
get
a
much
different
experience
than
if
it
were
someone
else,
and
so
something
that
can
create
a
little
bit
of
standardization
is
really
I,
think
effective
so,
along
along
those
lines,
I
hope
this
includes
something
that
provides
a
recitation
of
the
skills
and
competencies
and
maybe
some
tricks
for
effective
SPRC.
I
Commissioners,
you
just
might
want
to
think
about
a
section.
That's
for
the
the
lay
community
member
who
wants
to
know
how
to
participate
in
giving
feedback
through
the
SPRC,
giving
them
some
some
practical
and
streamlining
tips
for
how
to
do
that
and
my
question
for
you
regards
the
standardization
of
materials
which
we've
talked
about
before
whether
they
be
you
know,
X
on
a
metric
drawings
or
some
other
form
of
graphical
representation.
Can
you
just
tell
us
a
little
bit
more
about
what
the
current
thinking
is
on
that
my.
C
Current
thinking-
and
it's
only
my
current
thinking,
because
staff
and
I
have
not
really
put
our
heads
together
on
this-
would
really
would
include
I,
think
neighborhood
context.
So
very
often,
when
you
start
an
SPRC,
you
launch
right
into
the
site
itself,
not
always
and
I
know
that
in
bet
in
the
background,
before
a
four
point
one
is
put
together
or
even
when
the
urban
design
team
looks
at
a
site,
they're
doing
and
I'm
I'm
not
yet
up
to
speed
on
what
to
call
these
500
feet
across.
C
The
point
is
in
layman's
terms,
what
are
the
what's
the
road
network
and
start
with
that?
What's
the
invite,
what
are
the
environmental
concerns?
Is
there?
Are
you
near
a
stream?
Are
you
near
an
RPA?
Do
you
have
to
deal
with
chest
bay
issues,
so
you
would
have
the
environmental
context.
You
have
the
built
context
and
then
what
is
the
neighborhood
like
that?
C
This
redeveloping
property
is,
is
plunking
itself
down
on
and
and
instead
of
starting
with
the
site
and
then
going
through
the
agenda
and
at
the
end
people
say
what
what's
the
building
next
door
look
like.
It's
only
a
little
town
house,
it's
it
what's
the
shadow!
All
of
these,
the
neighborhood
begins
at
the
end
to
ask
those
questions.
I
think
it's
standard
operating
procedure,
I'm,
not
a
planner,
I'm
learning
a
lot
about
planning
to
start
with
context.
They
and
often
existing
conditions.
You'll
get
a
slide
like
that.
It
goes
by
very
quickly
and
I.
C
Think
I
would
really
like
to
talk
a
bit
more.
Obviously,
we
need
staff
to
buy
into
this
idea
because
they're,
the
ones
that
ask
the
developers
for
these
presentations,
but
that's
what
I
had
in
mind
in
general,
you're,
redeveloping
a
site
in
the
middle
of
a
neighborhood,
a
place
that
people
use
and
live
in.
How
do
you
get
into
this
site
from
the
neighborhood?
How
do
you
get
out
of
it
where's
the
nearest
school?
Where
are
the
nearest
parks
and
open
space?
C
I
That
goes
into
that,
and
you
often
only
hear
about
it
when
you
go
through
an
SPR
seeing
people
say
well,
I
want
this
or
I
want
that,
and
they
say
well
I
can't
because
I've
got
these
constraints,
and
this
is
what's
requiring
me
to
do
that.
It'll
be
great.
If,
if
somehow,
that
could
all
be
known
ahead
of
a
in
the
process,
people
could
begin
to
be
socialized
to
that
early
in
the
process.
Well,.
C
This,
of
course,
is
where
the
concept
review
would,
if
we
could
standardize
and
again,
I
have
not
discussed
this
with
staffing.
This
is
a
collaborative
effort.
This
is
not
easy
for
staff
to
make
these
these
sorts
of
changes
so
we're
sensitive
to
that,
but
I
think
we
want
to.
We've
indicated
the
direction
we'd
like
to
go
in
mr.
B
They
have
already
from
the
very
GetGo
their
full
renderings.
You
know
the
pretty
pictures
right,
the
verts,
and
sometimes
we
all
know,
let's
face
it,
that
applicants
you
know
intentionally,
perhaps
throw
some
things
in
there
that
they
know
are
gonna
catch
the
eye
good
or
bad.
That
sort,
and
so
the
whole
idea
is
to
before
we
get
into
that
level.
We
get
distracted
by
this
feature
of
that
feature
or
whatever
to
have
a
more
standardized
view
of.
How
does
the
massing
forget
about
what
color
the
brick
is
or
whatever
else?
B
How
does
the
massing
fit
into
the
context?
Just
for
one
example,
so
I
think
we
really
are
we're
talking
about
the
same
things
and
it's
just
trying
to
create
a
process
where
we
can
really
hone
in
on
that
that
broader
perspective
before
we,
though
ninh
on
the
very
specifics
of
the
of
the
application
like.
I
But
I
really,
like
you,
know,
Commissioner
Siegel
your
focus
on
our
representational
view
of
buildings.
That
would
give
you
a
sense
of
how
they
relate
to
their
environment,
a
but
also
how
they
the
sort
of
work
is
buildings.
You
know,
I
think
often
that
comes
much
later
in
the
process,
and
so
I
I
would
just
encourage
your
further
thinking
on
that
and
coming
to
something
that
that
works
for
everybody.
A.
A
Couple
quick
ones
for
me
and
again
I'm
gonna,
lead
off
by
saying
when
the
Planning
Commission
is
strong
and
effective,
it
makes
the
county
board
members
job
much
easier.
It
just
does
because
you
are
the
place.
The
SPRC
is
the
place
where
citizens
have
real
input
there
at
the
table
and
in
education
and
don't
let's
not
kid
ourselves.
A
So
three
quick
things.
This
is
more
for
staff
than
one
for
you
guys.
The
concept
review
question
which
was
in
that
first
slide.
Right
and
I
do
remember
a
conversation
about
this.
In
terms
of
what
role
might
or
might
not,
the
Planning
Commission
play
in
that
earlier
look
see,
and
where
are
you
all
on
that?
Well,.
H
As
we
went
through
the
fairly
extensive
process
with
the
Planning
Commission
many
in
the
community
to
take
a
hard
look
at
our
four-point-one
process
of
the
role
of
SBR
C,
one
of
the
things
that
we
heard
was
that
there
needed
to
be
a
opportunity
for
an
applicant
to
have
an
early
read
on
a
number
of
technical
and
related
issues
that
they
normally
seek
out
across
all
the
county
departments.
In
terms
of
des
Park
and
Rec
planning
and
so
on.
H
In
terms
of
a
number
of
things
they
should
attempt
to
address
as
they
prepare
their
preliminary
submission.
And
for
years
many
years
planning
staff
had
done
that,
but
in
a
very
informal
informal
and
sometimes
a
and
a
Verity
of
different
ways.
And
so
one
of
the
objectives
that
we
took
on
was
to
build
this
concept.
H
Level
review
into
our
administrator
four
point
run
rigs
so
that,
prior
to
an
applicant
submitting
the
preliminary
application,
which
is
expensive
proposition
and
certainly
before
the
final
application,
that
county
staff
across
all
levels
of
the
the
plan
review
process
could
provide
some
early
comments
at
that
level.
And
we
built
that
in
and
that's
been
very
well
received,
we've
done
I
think
seven,
eight,
nine
ten
of
those
since
this
process
begun,
and
that
was
the
primary
objective.
H
What
the
Planning
Commission
is
talking
about
is
another
level
of
concept
review
that
we
want
to
coordinate
with
this,
and
so,
as
we
develop
the
every
year
staff
setback
and
looks
at
the
administrative
4.1
regs,
and
we
report
those
back
to
the
to
the
manager
with
some
recommendations.
I
think
this
is
not
even
provide
some
linkage
with
the
SPRC
operating
guide
in
concept
review.
We
have
some
work
to
do
on
how
to
make
that
happen,
but
we're
committed
to
doing
that.
But
again
we
do
have
this
concept
review.
A
H
B
Go
on
record
on
this,
just
because
I
think
this
is
really
important
actually,
and
this
also
came
up
at
neh
op
today.
I
think
that
development
is
all
about
risk
for
the
when
the
from
the
developers
perspective,
it's
all
about
risk
and
mitigating
risk,
and
the
SPRC
process
is
always
going
to
represent
some
element
of
risk.
This
to
me,
is
a
really
low
hanging
fruit,
something
very
easy
for
them
to
be
able
to
come,
whether
that's
before
the
Planning
Commission
before
various
committees
they
do.
B
If
we
want
to
encourage
creativity,
creativity
also
involves
risk,
but
again
the
way
that
you
mitigate,
that
is,
they
could
come
and
float
some
ideas
run
it
by
the
Commission,
get
some
feedback
and
say
no,
that's
a
non-starter
or
yes,
we
love
that.
That's
a
great
thing
we
should.
You
should
really
take
that
and
run
with
it.
I
think
that
this
is
just
such
an
to
me.
An
almost
no-brainer
really
look
forward
to
being
able
to
to
make.
A
That
conversation,
okay,
well,
you
may
be
in
a
position
to
help
do
that:
okay,
the
the
last
two
one
is
just
a
comment,
a
suggestion,
this
issue
about
how
to
better,
educate
and
it
just
dawned
on
me.
We
just
saw
a
video
at
our
last
board
meeting
with
our
own
Tina
right
out,
showing
people
how
board
meetings
work.
It's
kind
of
interesting
because
we
know
how
they
work,
we're
here,
all
the
time,
but
a
lot
of
people
don't.
A
It
strikes
me
that
a
simple,
straightforward,
video,
maybe
showcasing
some
of
your
planning
commissioners,
could
be
done
in
a
very
similar
way.
I
mean
don't
we
all
go
to
do
something
in
our
home
and
we
find
finally
a
YouTube
that
somebody
sits
there
and
shows
us
how
to
change
the
toilet,
handle
or
something
right.
Sometimes
we
learn
it,
and
sometimes
we
don't,
but.
H
A
A
H
Just
to
help
a
little
bit
with
this
mr.
Schreiber,
who,
who
chairs
our
supervisors,
our
current
planning,
section
and
I
reviewed
the
draft,
we
have
a
number
of
comments,
I
think,
will
be
very
constructive.
So
after
tonight
we
plan
on
working
with
the
chair
to
merge
those
together
with
the
commissioners.
We
want
to
get
the
club
just
looking
for
a
day.
A
A
C
Just
want
to
very
quickly
respond.
I.
These
ideas
are
wonderful,
I,
think
a
one-pager
on
the
SPR
see
a
leave
behind.
It
can
be
at
every
SPRC
meeting.
The
video
is
that's
brilliant,
I,
don't
know
how
that
won't
work,
but
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
it.
Some
more
information
that
will
we'll
check
in
we'll
do
a
chicken,
an
email
with
the
board
for
these
or
I
guess
we
can
work
through
staff
to
see
what
sorts
of
standardized
templates,
etc,
etc.
These
are
great
ideas
and
I.
Thank
you
very
much.
A.
A
H
Chairman,
thank
you
and
members
of
the
county
board
and
certainly
planning
commissioners
very
pleased
to
give
really
this
formal
presentation
on
some
outstanding
work
that
that
our
staff
have
done
both
with
the
planning
and
communication
staff,
as
well
as
with
submitter
departmental
staff,
to
really
focus
on.
What
really
is
one
of
the
county's
important
goals,
and
that
is
to
ensure
that
we
have
a
well
informed,
an
engaged
community,
and
then
we
can
communicate
our
policies
and
priorities
in
a
really
effective
way
and
I
want
to
recognize
before
I
begin.
H
B
H
Again,
it
really
began
with
the
charge
from
the
county
board.
I
think
that
builds
on
Arlington,
County's
commitment
to
engage
them
in
the
communication
and
that
four
point
charge
really
focused
on.
How
do
we
clearly
present
the
governing
documents,
particularly
on
our
County
website?
Secondly,
can
we
explain
the
processes
and
the
strategic
priorities
in
an
effective
way
to
every
member
of
our
community?
H
Can
we
identify
a
clear
way
and
measure
effectiveness
and
realizing
those
goals,
objectives,
particular
elements
of
our
plans
and
our
11
comprehensive
plan
elements
and
suggest
ways
to
improve
how
we
communicate
and
measure
projects
provide
metrics?
If
you
will
in
terms
of
how
we're
meeting
those
and
goals
objectives
from
the
plans
and
policies
adopted
by
by
our
our
county
board,.
H
So
that
resulted
in
some
some
recommendations
that
we'll
discuss
tonight.
I
know
the
county
manager
is
going
to
review
in
more
detail
what
the
county
board
at
the
carryover
meeting
in
the
coming
week.
But
the
recommendations
really
focus
on
how
we
can
develop
new
and
informational
documents,
particularly
how
we
present
the
comprehensive
plan
in
varying
levels
of
detail,
to
ensure
recognition
and
understanding
of
those
important
basic
documents.
How
can
we
better
utilize,
illustrations
and
clear
text
graphics
to
describe
the
decision
making
process
in
Arlington
what
influences
that
decision-making
process?
H
Secondly,
how
to
complete
some
multi
enhancements
to
our
web
content,
basically
making
our
websites
more
readable,
more
engaging
easier
to
navigate
so
to
improve
the
clarity
and
overall
web
presence
that
helps
communicate
and
brand
those
elements
of
our
comprehensive
plan.
And
thirdly,
we
need
to
recommend
some
future
steps
and
that
deals
with
the
Metro
question
again
identify
opportunities
for
improving
reporting
at
all
levels
and
establishing
how
methods
can
be
employed
by
reporting
in
various
documents
and
reports
on
how
we're
meeting
the
goals
and
objectives
both
quantitatively
and
quantitatively.
H
Seeing
it
out
mr.
chairman
I'm
teeing
it
up
and
how
do
those
11
elements?
How
are
they
up
dated
and
how
do
they
interrelate
to
one
another
in
in
the
simplest
terms,
as
well
as
in
to
the
details
that
are
at
the
heart
of
some
of
these
documents,
and
so
this
new
essential
guide
teams
up
three
levels
of
understanding
of
our
comprehensive
plan
and
will
serve,
we
believe
as
a
new
resource
document
for
Arlington
in
many
different
ways.
H
The
second
element
deals
with
our
website
improvements
and
when
we
unveil
these
and
and
launch
these
web
pages
you're
going
to
find
that
they
now
have
a
clear
brand,
standardized
approach
and
materials
to
them
and,
most
importantly,
clear
ways
to
navigate
back
and
forth
from
the
overall
concept
to
the
various
details
associated
with
the
elements
of
our
comprehensive
plan.
And
again,
this
is
very
new
and
again
provides
several
different
levels
of
information.
As
we
talk
to
the
Planning
Commission
early
this
evening
about
methods
and
techniques
and
means
to
communicate.
H
This
is
going
to
provide
one
of
those
opportunities,
not
just
for
the
Planning
Commission,
but
all
our
boards
and
commissions,
and
certainly
the
community
of
it's
so
important,
not
just
talk
about
the
elements
in
the
documents,
but
how
those
plan
elements
and
all
the
other
policies
and
more
detailed
planning
efforts
that
are
the
county
produces
how
they
interrelate.
But
how
do
they
inform
decision
making
and
how
are
they
utilized
by
the
county
board
in
decision-making?
H
Our
planning
efforts,
one
of
the
important
things
to
understand-
and
this
really
came
through
I-
think
through
the
community
facilities
study-
is
that
how
do
we?
How
do
we
plan
for
coordinate
at
all
levels,
planning
and
and
budgeting
for
public
facilities,
including
schools,
and
how
those
facilities
fit
into
the
decision
making
process
and
again,
the
document
will
provide
pretty
thorough
review
of
how
we
work
with
the
Arlington
Public
School
Board.
H
Lastly,
it's
it's
extremely
important,
as
is
certainly
the
board
recognizes,
to
continue
to
measure
and
assess
how
we're
doing
and
how
we're
making
progress
whether
course
corrections
are
necessary
in
a
large
part
that
can
be
done
through
our
five-year
review
of
the
comprehensive
plan
that
tracks
and
considers
accomplishments.
This
is
also
the
tie
back
to
the
Planning
Commission,
who
really
is
our
steward
of
the
comprehensive
plan
and
leads
that
five-year
review
process.
H
So
we
see
this
as
an
opportunity
through
that
review,
that's
mandated
by
the
Commonwealth
of
Virginia
to
check
in
on
those
metrics
and
determine
how
we're
doing
and
compile
information
and
recommendations
during
that
review.
It's
also
going
to
be
important
that
we
look
at
other
means
of
implementation
for
the
comprehensive
plan
to
determine
how
those
projects
programs,
both
during
the
CIP
and
budgeting
process,
are
also
helping
to
implement
and
address
those
priorities
that
are
part
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
H
So
there
are
a
number
of
ways
that
we'll
attempt
to
do
that
here
are
just
some
examples
of
various
tools.
Reports
documents
that
we
produce
annual
Rd
County.
That
could
include
statements
and
conclusions
about
how
we're
performing
and
as
we
move
forward,
we'll
be
working
with
various
departments
to
ensure
that
we
capture
that
performance
as
well
so
again,
I'm
very
pleased
tonight
to
give
you
a
very
quick
presentation
of
what
we'll
provide
in
greater
detail
next
week
with
the
manager's
report.
So
with
that
mr.
chairman
I'll
open
it
up
for
comments
and
discussion.
Thank.
A
A
This
is
a
staff
document
in
response
to
a
staff
charge
really
to
help
graphically
and
in
other
ways
to
communicate
the
process
by
which
we
start
with
a
vision
and
move
to
the
budget
or
any
number
of
other
things
in
the
community
to
help
people
see
those
connections
and
I.
Think
most
of
us
have
seen
some
preliminary
work
that
you've
done
and
everybody
a
person
loves
that
wheel.
We
love
that
wheel,
the
color
wheel.
A
So
my
first
question
and
I'll
ask
one
and
then
go
to
Christian
slide
six,
as
you
were
going
through
this
and
when
I'm,
looking
at
all
these
beautiful
graphics
and
I
like
all
of
them,
except
this
one
and
I,
really
don't
to
be
honest
with
you,
I
don't
really
get
this
one.
It
I
think
I
know
what
it's
trying
to
do,
but
my
my
Mike,
my
question
is:
maybe
what
is
it?
What
is
it
trying
to
do
and
do
we
think
it
does
it
well.
A
H
Well,
first,
mr.
chairman,
that's
that
in
part,
why
we're
presenting
it
this
evening
and
we'll
be
reviewing
it
next
week
with
you,
but
the
intent
really
is.
That
is
certainly
the
board
and
the
commissioners
know
we
have
a
framework
of
planning
that
begins
with
our
comprehensive
plan,
our
general
land-use
plan
and
actually.
H
It
starts
with
really
our
overall
vision
that
comprehensive
plan
in
its
elements
and
then
into
the
small
area
plans
and
sector
plans.
So
there
is
this
that
part
I
kind
of
get
so
that
that
framework
of
planning
in
influence
can
influence
the
capital
improvement
program,
certainly
the
zoning
ordinance
and
and
other
types
of
legislative.
H
A
Me
just
Anala
I'm
gonna,
ask
others
for
comment
on
this,
because
I
don't
want
to
just
make
a
statement
or
comment
and
then
move
on
to
the
next
item.
I'd
like
to
get
others,
but
as
I
look
at
it,
you
can
sort
of
determine
the
county.
Vision
is
at
the
center
of
this
I
think
most
people
would
agree,
and
then
you
can
see
going
down.
A
The
challenge
is
the
rest
of
it
and
what
it
is
really
trying
to
communicate,
because
if
you
kind
of
look
at
this
you'd
think
there
was
no
community
and
put
it
into
the
county
budget,
you
know
they
don't
connect
and
and
what
all
those
dotted
lines
mean
it
just
feels
confusing.
Are
there
others
that
share
I
mean
yes.
I
I
just
like
to
echo
all
of
that
which
would
have
been
one
of
my
points,
but
just
to
preface
this
by
saying,
I
really
love
this
work
I
think
it's
an
essential
tool
for
effective
community
engagement.
I,
really
I
think
this
will
really
help
help
our
community
engage
in
a
very
constructive
way.
I
think
it'll
also
be
very
useful,
for
you
know
new
people
who
may
join
the
board
you're
welcome.
I
You
know
it's
it's
a
great
document
that
can
serve
a
lot
of
different
purposes.
I
do
have
one
question:
looking
at
the
website,
template
I
think
an
earlier
iteration
or
maybe
I'm,
just
thinking
of.
What's
there
now,
but
there's
a
point
of
contact.
The
staff
point
of
contact
which
is
available
on
most
pages,
is
that
going
to
no
longer
be
a
part
of
templates
and
if
so,
why?
The.
F
You
I
also
think
this
is
great
and
what's
exciting,
for
me
is
when
you
look
at
at
slide,
7
and
it,
but
still
recalling
six
and
this
I
guess
the
planet
in
the
northwest
part
of
this
solar
system
here
says
the
CIP,
the
capital
improvement
plan,
and
so
it
just
strikes
me
that
you
know:
we've
had
the
the
start
of
community
engagement
on
the
budget
and
I.
Imagine
mr.
manager
we're
going
to
be
hearing
about
your
community
engagement
roll
out
on
the
CIP
in
the
near
future.
F
It
just
seems
to
me
that
a
lot
of,
what's
in
here
especially
slide
7
the
framework
for
decision
making
and
how
do
public
facilities
and
schools
fit
into
the
decision-making
process.
That
a
lot
of
this
is
really
helpful
foundation,
I
think
for
the
community,
understanding
the
whole
purpose
of
the
CIP
and
how
we
are
going
to
be
grappling
with
some
of
the
decisions
with
respect
to
this
CIP,
both
in
the
next
couple
years,
but
also
in
the
out
years
and
I'm,
just
wondering
if
you
had
any
thoughts
in
that
regard.
J
Just
to
note
that,
probably
and
after
the
new
year
begins,
we
will
be
laying
out
a
process
for
engaging
the
community
and
also
the
joint
facilities,
Advisory
Commission
on
having
that
input
and
each
of
the
and
I
think.
As
you
know,
the
CIP
comes
to
the
Planning
Commission
as
part
of
the
review
process,
so
it
plays
I
might
put
that
that
plan
it
closer
to
the
center
of
the
solar
system,
but
I
think
that
it's
an
important
piece
of
it.
Thank.
E
And
a
similar
note
actually
really
appreciate
the
inclusion
of
this
framework
for
decision
making
and
I
know
we'll
have
an
opportunity
to
get
anything
on
Tuesday
to
continue
to
unpack
how
this
actually
looks
in
context
of
the
wheel.
I
know
this
is
in
reaction
to
a
feedback
that
a
lot
of
board
members
have
given
about
the
importance
of
featuring
schools
and
our
public
communications
about
the
comp
plan.
E
I
think
this
is
is
better
than
not
including
it,
but
I
would
like
to
just
continue
to
push
our
thinking
about
with
this
beautiful
image
representing
to
the
community
the
way
that
our
priorities
fit
together,
representing
such
an
important
element.
Half
of
our
budget,
a
huge
chunk
of
our
capital
improvement
plan,
a
significant
element
in
our
planning
processes
to
have
that
represented
as
a
sort
of
overlay
or
framework
and
not
core
to
that
vision.
E
I
think
I'm,
still
gonna
be
struggling
through
a
little
bit
about
how
we
that
and
that
may
come
as
we
iterate
on
that
on
the.
But
it
does
lead
me
to
perhaps
endeavor
to
keep
on
the
table
and
I
know.
I
read
this
now
because
I
know
it's
been
an
area
of
interest,
the
Planning
Commission
some
thinking
about
what
it
would
take
to
create
a
Schools
element
of
the
comp
plan
and
I
know.
E
Since
we
last
talked
about
this
in
our
last
work
session
with
the
Planning
Commission
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
look
at
a
couple
of
examples
and
I'm
pulling
up
now.
I'm.
Looking
at
you
know,
Fairfax
County
has
an
education,
public
facilities,
element
or
sub
plan.
I,
don't
know
how
exactly
their
comp
plan
elements
with
map
onto
ours.
But
you
know
it's
not
lengthy.
It's
it's
half
a
dozen
pages.
It's
about.
E
You
know
what
types
of
educational
facilities
the
county
provides
some
of
the
principles
that
go
into
citing
them
the
the
description
of
the
challenges
they
face,
which
are
not
unlike
ours.
With
regard
to
citing
it
would
be
my
hope-
and
perhaps
it
is
too
optimistic
of
one
that
we
could
consider
some
way
to
develop
a
schools
element
of
the
comp
plan
without
requiring
a
tremendous
outlay
of
hours.
I
know
we'll
talk
next
about
the
planning
departments,
work
plan
and
I
am
really
mindful
of
that.
A
D
Could
we
go
back
to
infamous
slide
six
and
back
to
a
theme
of
mine
from
earlier,
so
how
our
priorities
identified,
balanced
and
prioritized?
So
my
question,
actually
here
is
how
are
they?
What
this
is
I
think
telling
me
and
we
I've
had
been
back
and
forth
before
about
strategic
planning
and
the
comp
plan
and
how
fix
that.
So
what
this
is
telling
me
is
that
we
have
the
comprehensive
plan
and
there
are
11
elements
and
each
one
is
a
priority,
so
11
a
priori
priorities
at
least
and
then
I'm
guessing.
D
What
this
is
saying
is
through
the
budget
process
P
process
with
all
of
this
input
some
ways
I
kind
of
like
this,
because
it
feels
like
all
of
these
kind
of
balls
and
things
are
just
kind
of
coming
at
us,
which
is
the
way
it
feels
sometimes
I'm
sure
to
all
of
us
and
that
that
each
year
we
come
up
with
a
different
way
going
through
this
whole
process.
All
these
different
things
flying
at
us.
D
H
Briefly,
I
again,
this
was
part
of
the
charge
and
it's
a
challenging
relationship
to
present
and
we
are
going
to
go
back
and
find
a
better
way
to
do
it,
but
from
a
planning
perspective.
What
it
attempts
to
show
is
that
and
we're
fortunate
in
Arlington
that
that
our
commitment
over
decades
to
comprehensive
planning
to
sector
planning
to
sustainable
and
sound
policy
development
to
guide
growth
and
investment.
H
Those
things
are
central
in
Arlington
and
so
that
Center
triangle,
if
you
will
tries
to
shape
how
our
vision
and
those
planning
frameworks
work
together
to
inform
and
have
the
conversation
with
those
other
elements.
So
we
need
to
do
a
better
job
of
communicating
this,
but
that's
the
root
of
it.
Thank.
D
J
So
I
think
that,
let
me
let
me
answer
your
question
by
bringing
up
an
example,
this
isn't
meant
to
be
the
only
way
to
answer
the
question,
but
the
board
adopted
budget
guidance
for
fiscal
year.
Nineteen
and
it
identified
a
series
of
priorities
and
was
very
specific,
for
example,
on
affordable
housing
and
saying
that
I
should
come
forward
with
a
proposal
that
at
least
equal
the
amount
that
I
had
put
forward
in
the
proposed
budget
for
fiscal
year.
J
18
and
I
contrast
that
with
not
not
in
a
bad
way
but
with
the
affordable
housing
master
plan,
which
is
the
last
element
of
the
comprehensive
plan
that
was
adopted.
That's
said
in
it
aspirationally
that
we
should
seek
funding.
That's
at
least
double
the
amount
that
the
board
put
in
the
budget
guidance.
So
that
doesn't
mean
I
think
that
the
board's
walked
away
from
the
aspirations
and
there
are
a
number
of
aspirations
in
the
eleven
elements
of
the
comp
plan.
J
D
You
and
I
should
say:
I
mean
I,
like
all
of
this
work.
I
think
it's
great,
and
it's
just
it's
something.
It
was
a
theme
of
mine
a
couple
of
years
ago,
I
just
I
feel
I
think
you're
correct
that
in
the
budget
direction
it
was
affordable,
housing
I,
don't
know
that
we've
had
that
discussion
with
our
community,
that
that
is
our
number
one.
I
mean
I,
and
you
know
we
have
some
other
majors
we've
got
Public
Safety
we've
got
schools.
D
We
have
a
lot
of
really
important
items
that
our
vacancy
rate-
and
it
has
often
felt
to
me
that
we
should
have
a
method,
and
this
is
not
an
it's
not
meant
to
be
I,
don't
believe
which
is
sort
of
what
I'm.
What
I'm
saying,
but
I,
really
think
at
some
point
this
community
is
gonna,
have
to
really
sit
down
and
talk
about
what
are
our
real
priorities
and
we're
gonna
have
to
put
them
in
kind
of
one.
D
Two
three
four,
and
at
this
point
this
doesn't
even
have
everything
because
there's
miss
crystal
pointed
out,
I
mean,
did
try
to
put
schools
and
I
appreciate
that
I
think
that's
good,
and
this
is
a
good
framework
and
a
good
start,
but
I
don't
think
it's
it's
the
end
point
to
where
I
think
we
should
be
I.
Don't
know
that
any
of
my
colleagues
agree
with
me,
so
we
may
not
get
there,
but
I
do
think
at
some
point.
D
This
Canady
is
gonna
have
to
find
a
way
to,
and
this
I'm
not
just
talking
to
you
mark,
but
it's
this
really
just
sort
of
a
general
statement.
I
think
we're
gonna
have
to
find
a
way
to
come
up
with
really
a
good
discussion
of
what
are
our
priorities
because
we've
got
so
many
people
everyone's
got
a
main
priority.
D
Affordable
housing
is
clearly
one
of
them,
but
when
we
ever,
if
anybody
asked
me
what
was
the
number-one
priority
for
our
Lincoln
County
I
couldn't
tell
him,
I
could
tell
what
mine
was
maybe
but
I
couldn't
tell
him
for
the
county.
So
that's
it.
That's
sorry
I'm
done,
but
this
is
great
work
and
I
appreciate
the
work
that's
gone
in
here
and
it's
I
just.
A
A
You're
not
saying
libraries
are
more
important
than
education,
which
is
more
important
than
Public
Safety,
which
is
more
important
than
Metro
you're.
Just
not
doing
that.
We
do
them
all.
So
this
is
showing
how
the
vision
explains
the
process
for
looking
at
all
of
those
within
a
common
vision
within
a
set
of
adopted
policies
and
principles.
Each
year
something
may
be
out
of
whack,
so
it
becomes
in
the
managers
work
plan
with
the
board
guidance,
something
that
needs
more
attention.
A
But
this
is
not
to
oversimplify
that
within
a
local
government
of
complex,
multi-layered
work
that
something
is
more
important
than
something
else
in
it
on
a
day-to-day
basis.
We
do
them
all,
and
this
helps
explain
how
that
process
of
setting
priorities,
setting
policies
within
each
of
the
various
departments,
the
choices,
the
decisions
in
each
of
those
departments
in
each
of
their
explicit
areas,
work
and
those
decisions
are
made.
Let
me
turn
to
did
you
want
to
add
something?
I
did.
I
I
just
think
it's
important,
and
maybe,
as
part
of
this
document,
we
need
to
just
be
explicit
about
what
this
this
is.
I
mean
this
is
a
discipline
of
you
know
of
urban
of
urban
planning
and
Community
Development.
So
it's
the
comprehensive
plan,
not
a
full
recitation
of
all
of
priorities
that
we
have
in
the
county,
so
traditionally
understood
we're
talking
about
land
use,
housing,
recreation,
transportation,
utilities,
it's
not
everything
that
we
do.
I
You
know
so
I
think
we
need
to
take
great
care
with
you
know,
adding
and
thinking
about
additional
elements
and
I
think
miss
crystal
bringing
up
education
to
me,
I
mean
clearly
it's
not
the
full
panoply
of
everything
you
talk
about
with
education,
that's
the
purview
of
the
school
board.
But
what
is
useful
is
our
commitment
to
joint
use
of
facilities.
Our
commitment
to
you
know
perhaps
building
up
and
not
out.
I
You
know
those
are
some
principles
that
I
think
could
be
useful
as
part
of
this
document
without
getting
into
areas
that
are
rightly
within
the
purview
of
the
school
board,
to
articulate
and
communicate
to
the
community
and
to
miss
Garvey's.
You
know
point
this
is
I,
don't
think
this
is
getting
at
the
full
scope
of
what
you
envisioned
a
couple
of
years
ago.
So
you
just
have
to
I
think
have
some
comfort
with
that.
This
is
a
significant
chunk
of
it.
I
How
do
we
take
what
is
a
significant
line
of
business
for
us
planning
and
how
do
we
apply
that
to
being
very
clear
with
our
community?
But
you
know
until
the
other
priorities
that
we
have
at
some
point.
We
have
to
figure
out
how
to
make
our
community
comfortable
that
that's
going
to
be
a
function
of
the
new
cycle.
Exigent
circumstances,
the
year-to-year
priorities
of
the
board,
the
capacity
of
staff
there.
There
is
no
real,
as
mr.
I
D
Thank
you
and
I
just
brought
it
because
when
I
was
trying
to
bring
that
up
before
this
was
brought
forward
as
that
that
we
were
doing
this
and
that's
all
we
needed
to
do
and
for
this,
for
what
it
is,
is
great
and
it's
a
huge
step
forward
from
where
we've
been
absolutely
great
I'm.
Just
using
this
as
an
opportunity
bring
up
my
subject
that
I
bring
up
frequently
and
just
saying
I
think
there's
more
work
to
be
done.
D
B
B
Is
it
possible-
and
you
don't
have
to
answer
now,
but
I
would
I'm
hoping
it
is
possible
that
to
have
not
just
the
PDF
links
of
all
of
these
and
and
and
let
alone
the
PDF
subchapters
as
I
see
there
the
table
of
contents
but
to
actually
have
html5
versions,
so
people
on
their
phones,
their
mobile
devices.
It's
a
lot
easier
to
to
scan
and
peruse
through
the
document
without
having
to
download
large
PDFs
will.
C
Very
quickly,
the
slide
six,
it
raises
a
question
for
me,
which
is
it
sort
of
does
not
illuminate
what
I
think
is
really
happening.
It
seems
slide
six.
It
shows
you
what
a
somebody
in
CP
HD
thinks
about
the
work
that
they
do.
So
you
are
engaged
with
the
vision,
the
planning,
the
sub
planning,
etc
so
aspirational,
some
of
it
a
lot
of
it.
Then
you
think
well,
is
this
feasible
and
you
think
about
the
budget,
but
from
a
citizen
point
of
view,
it's
almost
like.
C
A
K
You
I
would
like
to
mention
that
I
do
like
the
wheel
as
well.
I,
think
that's
terrific,
but
I
did
I
was
happy
to
hear
the
comments
from
Miss
crystal
earlier
and
wanted
to
heartily
endorse
them.
As
you
know,
and
as
you
mentioned
mr.
Duffy,
the
community
facility
study
did
highlight
the
importance
of
a
psn
public
facilities
as
part
of
the
as
a
potential
part
of
the
comp
plan
and
the
Planning
Commission.
Also
in
its
review
of
the
comp
plan,
its
last
review
did
make
recommendations
to
elevate
ApS
and
public
facilities.
L
Thank
you.
I
also
want
to
echo
that
both
what
miss
crystal
said
and
mr.
Dorsey
I
said
on
the
PFR
C
on
behalf
of
Park
and
Rec
for
years
before
being
on
Planning
Commission
from
Discovery
Elementary,
the
addition
at
Ashland
Abington
McKinley,
the
new
school
at
TJ,
the
addition
at
HB
and
the
new
school
for
Wilson
and
I
think
there's
something
to
be
said
for
codifying
some
of
what
we
want
to
see
with
the
schools,
both
in
terms
of
the
physical
building
and
the
siting,
and
also
our
expectations
for
sharing
the
space.
L
A
Suggestions,
okay,
colleagues,
okay,
very
helpful,
good.
Thank
you
for
I
know
the
managers
gonna
continue
to
work
with
you
all
and
planning
on
this
and
probably
bring
something
up
for
more
public,
even
a
more
public
discussion,
or
at
least
presentation
in
the
near
future.
So
thank
you
for
the
effort.
A
A
It's
really
the
opportunity
for
the
Planning
Commission
to
give
us
some
of
your
thoughts
about
what's
in
the
work
plan
as
proposed
and
there's
also
this
parking
lot
which
we
keep
accumulating
but
based
on
your
experience,
are
there
questions
you
have
that
you
think
would
help
inform
the
board's
decision
in
the
January
February
timeframe
when
the
board
will
meet
with
the
Planning
Commission
to
sort
of
give
input
and
sign
off
on
a
Planning
Division
work
plan.
So
with
that,
let's
turn
to
Bob
for
thank.
H
H
As
you
know,
we'll
be
back
before
the
long
range
planning
committee,
the
Planning
Commission,
to
discuss
the
work
program
and
the
Planning
Commission
itself
and
I'm
sure
we'll
be
back
with
the
County
Board
in
the
months
to
come.
As
you
begin
to
develop
the
budget.
So
two
parts
of
a
presentation
tonight
now
the
organizational
chart
is
very
hard
to
read.
But
again
our
35
staff
members
organized
around
three
major
functional
areas:
comprehensive
planning
which
Jen
Smith
manages
or
design
and
research
which
is
Chris
Kreider
and
current
planning,
which
is
managed
by
Aaron
Schreiber.
H
We
also
have
outstanding
staff
that
assists
in
our
administration,
as
well
as
communication
and,
most
recently,
as
the
board
owes.
The
managers
asked
us
to
assume
a
role
of
working
with
J
FAC
and
concentrate
coordinated
efforts
with
the
public
facility
review
committee.
So
we're
in
the
process
of
securing
a
senior
staff
member
to
work
with
us
on
that
function
as
well.
H
We
work
with
some
very
important
objectives
and
again,
while
we
focus
on
planning
and
design
for
our
community,
our
work
program
is
always
shaped
by
several
other
objectives.
In
terms
of
we
work
as
a
team
in
Arlington
County.
Our
planning
work
involves
more
than
just
the
department
and
the
division,
but
all
of
the
agencies
involved
in
county
government.
We
certainly
serve
as
a
knowledge,
a
real
resource
for
data
and
knowledge
through
our
research
staff,
and
we
really
foster
innovation
in
the
workplace
and
service
to
the
community
and
we
most
importantly,
value
and
facilitate
civic
engagement.
H
So
what
I'd
like
to
do
is
go
through
our
work
program,
very
briefly
in
the
three
sections,
while
we
work
together
an
interchangeable
way
within
the
division
and
with
urban
design
planning
and
current
planning
we'll
go
through
it
in
these
very
basic
folks,
functional
areas.
First,
the
Four
Mile
Run
valley
initiative,
as
you
know,
we're
completing
a
draft
policy
framework
plan
or
a
draft
plan
to
bring
forward
to
the
working
group
in
January
of
next
year.
H
We'll
start
that
in
January
of
2018
we'll
be
back
before
the
board
in
February
in
March
to
review
the
detailed
charge
and
scope
before
we
retain
the
consultant.
We
should
retain
that
team
in
March
of
2018
and
our
goal
is
to
initiate
finally,
this
important
program
for
Lehigh
way
in
April
of
2018,
as
the
board
knows,
and
the
Planning
Commission
do.
H
The
long
range
planning
committee
is
aware
that
we've
had
several
fairly
significant
glup
studies
this
past
year,
including
the
most
region
study
in
Washington
Kirkwood,
and
we
have
two
that
will
be
underway
this
winter
and
spring.
This
involves
3804
Wilson
Boulevard.
This
is
the
staples
property
and
on
Columbia
Pike,
ninth
in
Columbia
Pike.
This
is
the
office
building
that
is
covered
in
the
Columbia
Pike
plan.
H
So
we
have
teed
up
two
special
go
up
studies
that
have
been
through
applications
that
we've
received
to
date
in
terms
of
on
page
eight
in
terms
of
Zoning
studies
and
amendments,
this
Saturday,
the
board,
will
certainly
consider
phase.
One
of
the
Marc
study
based
on
the
county
board's
action
will
begin
almost
a
year's
effort
on
the
Phase
two
of
that
which
we'll
talk
about
with
the
board,
certainly
on
Saturday,
most
importantly,
will
be
getting
the
child
care
initiative.
H
The
board
provided
us
with
a
new
associate
plan
in
position
in
this
year's
budget,
we're
very
close
to
retaining
a
very
talented
individual
to
work
with
our
comp
plan
team
on
that
effort
and
as
that
effort
goes
out
to
the
public
review
through
the
child
care
initiative.
Later
this
winter,
we'll
have
staffing
on
board
to
help
with
the
implementation
of
those
parts
of
the
initiative.
H
Again,
we
have
some
amendments
that
stem
from
the
affordable
housing
master
plan
to
deal
with
the
definitions
of
moderate
income
related
to
the
form
based
code,
as
well
as
the
zoning
ordinance.
The
board
has
asked
us
to
also
consider
a
new
construction
of
accessory
dwelling
units
in
this
next
work
program
and,
lastly,
we
have
two
efforts
that
have
been
pending
that
we've
teed
up
for
this
fiscal
in
this
next
calendar
year
and
that's
to
look
further
at
the
s3,
a
district
study,
particularly
in
terms
of
other
types
of
public
facilities.
H
We're
about
to
be
part
of
the
team
that
will
be
working
on
the
career
of
a
center
facility
planning
along
Columbia,
Pike
and
again,
as
I
mentioned,
will
continue
to
provide
je
FAC
and
P
FRC
planning
in
a
minute
support
we'll
be
meeting
with
the
two
co-chairs
in
the
next
two
weeks
to
get
ready
for
their
January
agenda
and
to
begin
that
important
role
with
the
Planning
Division.
One
thing
that
we've
discussed,
certainly
with
the
Planning
Commission
and
with
the
county
board,
or
the
important
Comprehensive
Plan
two
to
three
two
determinations.
H
What
policy
and
process
can
we
deploy?
That
will
ensure
that
we
can
do
this
effectively
in
a
timely
way,
we're
going
to
see
a
number
of
site
plan
applications
within
Crystal
City
in
the
coming
year
and
there's
a
block
plan
that
will
be
initiating
with
block
G.
And
this
is
a
north
retail
block
involving
two
new
site
plans
that
really
lead
us
into
the
next
slide.
H
As
you
can
see
in
February
of
2018
in
May
of
2018,
we'll
have
the
two
jbg
projects
in
north
retail
district
and
17:70
crystal
arrived
before
the
Planning
Commission
and
the
county
board.
So
it
will
be
a
very
committed
year
for
Aaron
Schreiber
in
the
current
planning
team.
The
other
thing
that
we're
completing
and
I
mentioned
this
earlier.
We
were
having
discussion
with
the
Planning
Commission
about
the
SPR
C
operating
guide
will
be
bringing
to
the
county
manager
our
updated
recommendations
for
amendments
of
the
4.1
administrative
regulations,
conditions
which
we
do
on
an
annual
basis.
H
We'll
continue
to
work
with
ApS
and
pfr
see
the
reed
elementary
school
will
will
be
before
us
in
2018
and,
most
importantly,
working
with
the
Planning
Commission
administration.
Tonight,
we've
talked
about
the
SPS
SPRC
operating
guide
and
we're
committed
to
making
that
a
priority
to
complete
that,
as
I
said
early
spring
of
2018
again,
we'll
continue
to
staff
the
public
facilities
review
committee
as
well.
Lastly,
the
work
that
Chris
Kreider
and
his
team
on
the
urban
design
and
research
section
is
involved
with
particularly
on
urban
design.
H
Our
review
that
come
in
through
the
Zoning
Administrator
again,
one
of
the
things
that's
important
with
the
urban
design
at
research
team
is
the
interdepartmental
role
they
provide
in
providing
urban
design,
landscape,
design
and
architectural
services
to
County
departments,
particularly
as
they
proceed
with
various
capital
projects,
both
early
in
the
process
and
during
the
formation
of
the
design
and
so
on.
Again,
we
do
extensive
work
in
urban
design
in
terms
of
updating
the
landscape
standards,
Brett
and
Chris,
and
his
team
recently
completed
a
major
update
of
the
landscape
standards.
H
Again,
they
work
extensively
with
us
on
the
special
glup.
Studies
were
very
actively
involved
in
the
Adu
and
mark
work
that
appeared
before
the
county
board,
and
we
very
involved
in
the
Career
Center
and
ongoing
involvement
with
the
PFR
C&J
FAC
and
working
with
us
in
Crystal
City
on
the
block
plan
and,
last
but
not
least,
our
research
team,
which
Elizabeth
and
Christine
really
lead
do
it
outstanding
job
have
been
working
to
implement
the
community
facilities
study,
particularly
in
terms
of
the
APS
projections
and
student
enrollment.
H
We
reached
a
major
milestone
there
recently
in
terms
of
providing
age
cohort
information
to
two
ApS.
In
that
regard
again,
we
continue
to
focus
on
develop
and
tracking
your
reporting
they
produce.
The
various
reporting
on
our
transitory
development
profile
will
be
working
with
Petra
pollen,
Washington
Council
of
Governments.
In
terms
of
the
next
round
of
forecasting
and
again
we
are
going
to
be
on
the
verge
of
the
2020
US
census,
and
that
is
a
major
effort
for
our
staff
to
lead
that
effort
facilitated
and
our
staff
is
currently
working
with
an
interdepartmental
team.
H
That's
doing
I
think
a
really
exceptional
job.
On
the
first
time,
developing
a
multi-family
address
database
and
file
that
we
have
not
had,
and
we
have
staff
from
Public
Safety
from
IT
des
and
other
staff
working
with
us,
because
this
file,
while
it's
required
by
the
US
Census
Bureau,
is
an
early
study.
An
early
piece
of
data
support
the
census.
It
will
provide
many
benefits
for
Arlington
County
in
the
in
the
years
ahead.
H
Our
staff
again
works
on
GIS
map
updates
works
with
the
GIS,
Center
and
I
think
in
the
last
two
years,
as
we've
done.
Work
with
the
Weldon
Cooper
Center,
and
certainly
with
cog
Elizabeth
Hardy
in
particular,
was
instrumental
in
forming
a
regional
network
or
Northern
Virginia
network
of
all
the
demographers
from
the
various
communities
in
Fairfax,
Alexandria
and
other
communities,
and
they
meet
on
a
regular
basis.
H
Now
our
staff
facilitates
that
effort
and
it's
paid
some
big
dividends,
I
think
in
terms
of
our
work
with
Weldon
Cooper,
which
is
the
last
item
on
my
list,
so
that
mr.
chairman
leads
us
some
points
of
discussion.
I've
just
heat
up
the
four
areas
of
our
work
program
and
thank
you
for
the
chance
to
give
this
early
update.
A
Thanks
inand,
this
is
again
not
for
our
cut,
my
colleagues
we're
just
going
to
listen
to
the
Planning
Commission
input
here,
but
before
we
go
to
the
Planning
Commission
and
I'd,
invite
any
planning
Commissioner
to
come
up
and
take
your
turn
at
the
mic.
If
you
have
questions
or
comments
for
the
staff
and
for
us
to
hear
but
Bob
Duffy,
would
you
please
go
to
that?
One
slide
that
you've
got
in
the
queue
in
the
background
that
lists
the
part,
what
the
items
that
are
parked
the
items
that
are
not
in
your
work
plan.
A
What
you
presented
is
essentially
what
is
in
your
work
plan
right,
but
I
know
there
are
some
that
we've
talked
about
over
the
years
that
have
been
added
to
the
list
by
board
members
or
planning.
Commissioners
I
just
want
to
throw
them
up
there
so
that
it
informs
the
discussion
of
the
Planning
Commission
as
well.
Mr.
H
Chairman
tonight,
this
is
going
to
be
very
difficult,
read
so
I'm
going
to
outline
it
and
those
items
that
are
queued
up,
that
we
haven't
gotten
to
in
this
work
program
from
the
direction
we
provided
from
the
board
and
the
manager
when
are
when
the
18
budget
was
approved,
but
again
in
terms
of
areas
that
were
identified
by
its
staff,
but
not
currently
scheduled
in
our
work
program.
The
pilot
of
child
care
revisions
to
our
zoning
ordinance
terms
of
telecommunications
and
the
potential
revisit
how
we
define
major
and
mine
at
site
plan
amendments
all
right.
H
Some
others
have
identified
by
the
board,
but
not
scheduling.
These
aren't
in
any
order.
Amendments
to
our
transfer
of
development
regulations
studying
whether
we
can
improve
revise
the
penthouses
regulations
of
the
zoning
ordinance.
There
is
the
issue
of
modifications
in
the
bonus
study,
which
relates
to
section
15.6.
This
is
how
bonus
density
is
accrued
and
we've
had
that
in
our
queue
now
for
two
years
and
then
there's
the
issue
of
non-conforming
one
and
two
family
dwellings,
where
we've
done
some
initial
research,
but
we've
had
to
park
this
because
of
other
Zoning
priorities.
A
That
was
helpful,
perfect
because
I
know
each
of
the
planning
commissioners
or
board
members
at
one
point
in
time.
We
forget
what's
on
that
list
and
you
keep
you
know,
providing
it
to
us
at
different
points,
but
I
thought
it
would
be
good
to
help
inform
the
Planning
Commission
thinking.
So
let
me
go
to
Eric
first
and
then
on
down
the
line.
Sure.
B
I
think
real,
quick,
I'm
gonna
highlight
just
some
things
that
I
know
have
been
perennial
sort
of
items
on
our
list
and
certainly
that
the
Commission
has
discussed
this
past
year.
Also,
I
want
to
note
that
two
miles
I
think
this
is
the
first
we're
seeing
this
for
2018,
so
we're
sort
of
reacting
on
the
spot
here
tonight,
so
first
step
would
be
the
as
well
as
has
been
discussed
already.
B
The
community
facilities
comp
plan
element,
which
is
rather
it's
a,
can
be
more
narrowly
defined
as
miss
crystal
suggested,
or
it
needs
to
be
a
bigger
picture.
Broad
effort,
I
think
it
has
repeatedly
come
up
for
the
Commission
in
our
review,
not
just
as
schools
and
not
even
necessarily
always
just
of
of
public
facilities,
but
even
sometimes
in
the
way
that
it
relates
to
to
private
development.
The
lack
of
that
of
that
part
of
the
comp
plan
is
sorely
missing
from
time
to
time.
B
B
Finally,
so
I
think
a
lot
of
the
commissioners
would
be
very
happy
about
that
and
looking
for
the
opportunity,
so
I
mentioned
missing
middle
because
it
kind
of
dovetails
with
implementation
of
the
affordable
housing
master
plan
and
it
certainly
there
are
going
to
be
opportunities
in
the
Lee
Highway
planning
to
to
look
at
that
so
to
leverage
existing
efforts,
but
it
has
to
be
done.
I
think
with
the
mindset
towards
doing
that.
So
looking
for
the
board
to
kind
of
reinforce
that
along
the
way.
B
The
other
thing
is
the
zoning
ordinance
parking
lot
right.
So
over
the
years
there
was
this
mythical
list,
or
perhaps
it's
been
confirmed
or
not
denied
I,
don't
know
what
the
status
exactly
is
with
staff,
but
a
list
of
potential
zoning
ordinance
amendments,
things
that
were
put
in
a
parking
lot,
as
we
were
doing
the
review
various
reviews,
but
but
the
comprehensive
review
we
did
at
the
zoning
ordinance
four
years
ago
now,
I
think.
H
B
Okay,
well
so
not
quite
four
years
ago,
but-
and
these
are
things
like
the
definition
of
a
kitchen-
you
know
which
are
deemed
were
deemed
too
hard
too
difficult
too
heavy
in
Prior
efforts,
but
nonetheless
keep
cropping
up
over
and
over.
So
there's
a
list
out
there
and
I.
Think
Krishna
Garen,
who
is
our
chair
of
our
zoning
committee,
doesn't
have
to
enumerate
all
of
them,
but
could
give
some
sense
of
flavor
of
the
kinds
of
issues
that
come
up.
B
The
other
category
would
be
well
for
lack
of
a
better
term
sort
of
miscellany,
and
these
are
things
like
trees
right.
Our
tree
standards
I
know,
you've
got
in
your
work
plan
looking
at
the
landscape
standards,
and
perhaps
this
will
be
covered.
All
I
can
tell
you.
Is
that
my
entire
time
on
the
Commission
time
after
time
after
time,
trees
keep
coming
up,
keep
coming
up
and
we
kind
of
seem
to
keep
drawing
a
blank
on
exactly
what
are
our
standards?
B
How
do
we
do
it
and
it
gets
I
think
actually
miss
Garvey
your
point
about
how
do
we
prioritize?
What
is
this
synthesis
that
we
do
it
priorities?
I?
Actually
think
that
trees
are
a
great
example
of
that,
because
you
know
we
just
recently
approved
fleet
elementary
school
and
there
was
a
large
stand
of
trees
that
were
that
are
going
to
be
coming
down.
We're
looking
at
we
also
approved
lubber,
run
right
where
a
large
stand
of
mature
trees
are
coming
down.
B
Is
it
possible
they
could
have
been
saved,
I,
don't
know
because
we
we
don't
necessarily
have
them
up
front
in
our
process.
So
I
think
that
that
and
then
one
that
cropped
up
along
the
same
lines.
That's
a
little
bit
more
recent
discussion.
If
you're
not
aware
of
this
there's
been
a
lot
of
discussion
at
the
SPRC
about
dog
walking
facilities
right,
it's
a
fun
topic
for
everyone,
so
these
are
the
that's.
Why
I
put
that
in
the
miscellany
cat
category
and
then?
B
Lastly,
in
the
big
picture
we
talked
about
early
this
evening,
but
staff
support
for
training
and
education
of
the
Commission
and
of
the
community
in
general
and
Chris
kryder's,
Arbor,
Design
Group
has
done
I.
Think
some
really
nice
forum
in
the
past
and
I
think
the
Commission
would
just
endorse
and
support
more
of
that
and
making
sure
there's
room
in
that
in
the
in
the
work
plan
to
continue
that
kind
of
effort
consistent
with
our
discussion
earlier
tonight.
B
C
Perfect
segue
I
I
was
disappointed
in
not
seeing
education
and
training.
I
saw
a
lot
of
work
for
the
urban
design
research
team,
two
pages
worth
I-
think
if
I
recall,
but
I,
think
if
that
gets
explicitly
placed
on
the
list,
following
on
the
conversation
this
evening,
that
that
would
give
some
comfort.
We
can
talk
more
about
how
I
spoke
with
Chris
Kreider
about
this,
and
he
he
noted
that
the
seminars
that
were
done
were
wonderful,
but
they
were
not
very
well
attended.
So
perhaps
there
are
other
venue
other
ways
week.
M
M
It
was
passed
in
nineteen,
it
was
abducted
with
a
board,
I
should
say
in
1980,
I
was
born
in
85
so
and
the
older
I
get
the
more
ridiculous
that
is,
and
so
we
as
planned
commissioners,
see
this
in
their
site
plans
and
the
long-range
planning
we
do,
and
it
does
not
help
us.
That
does
not
help
the
community
and
so
I
know
it's
not
on
your
work
plan
this
year.
Mr.
Duffy,
but
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
to
communicate
to
the
community
at
what
point
that
would
be
taken
up.
M
M
What's
the
plan
for
those
to
be
updated
in
10-15
years
or
the
Virginia
square,
one
which
was
adopted
kind
of
in
their
early
2000?
So
what's
the
plan
for
these?
You
know
this
good
work
to
see
a
revision
and
I
think
that's
an
important
part
of
the
process
and
your
staff
does
great
work.
I
hope
that
we
continue
to
do
that
and
plan
for
our
our
community.
Thanks.
L
You
so
first
I
want
to
talk
about
zoning
Eric
alluded
to
some
other
things,
I'm
going
to
say,
but
one
of
the
things
we
did
this
year
at
our
last
SoCo
meeting
we
did
have
all
the
planning
commissioners
have
an
opportunity
to
share
issues
that
had
come
up
time
and
time
again
arizuka
meetings,
but
that
weren't
part
of
the
scope
of
what
we
were
discussing.
So
we
said
we'll
make
a
note
of
it,
but
we're
not
talking
about
that
tonight.
L
You'll
be
happy
to
know
that
some
of
them
are
things
you've
already
identified,
as
per
definition
of
kitchen
is
definitely
one.
This
came
up
with
the
ad
use
because
it
seems
to
make
liegelady
is
prohibitively
expensive.
The
non-conforming
single-family
home
is
basically
the
issue
is
how
can
we
make
it
easier
to
redevelop
an
existing
home
than
to
tear
it
down
and
rebuild
it
from
scratch,
ways
to
preserve
trees
and
we're
seeing
neighborhoods
try
to
be
very
creative
with
this?
Should
they
put
a
historic
overlay
on
it?
L
I
think
we
could
probably
come
up
with
something
for
that.
The
dog
parks
dog,
walking
areas
I
know
that's
not
on
your
list.
We're
throwing
this
out.
There
is
something
that
you
might
want
to
include,
but
we're
seeing
this
in
almost
every
SPRC.
How
do
we
define
it?
How
big
does
it
have
to
be?
Who
can
use
it
and
when
and
the
one
that's
probably
going
to
be
the
most
exciting
and
maybe
the
low-hanging
fruit
is
the
fungibility
of
parking
on
some
of
our
facilities.
So
can
we
share
parking?
L
If
you
have
several
uses
on
a
given
site?
Can
we
start
to
find
a
way
that
we
can
reduce
the
overall
parking
recognizing
that
some
of
that
parking
will
be
shared
over
time?
I
do
have
a
couple
of
other
things.
I
do
want
to
share
just
given
my
experience
as
planner,
and
you
know,
volunteering
here
in
the
county
I
definitely
agree
with
Eric
on
the
missing
middle
and
we've
talked
about
this.
A
lot
I
have
actually
researched
this
before
I
think
it's
it.
L
There's
single-family
homes,
you
free
up
that
housing
for
the
people
to
move
into,
and
this
is
a
concept
called
filtering,
and
we
really
want
encourage
that,
since
we
sort
of
have
a
shortage
of
the
ability
to
create
more
land
and
build
more
single-family
homes,
the
last
one
is
I
think
we
need
to
be
very
creative
and
very
diligent
and
opportunities
to
conserve
and
acquire
more
open
space.
We
really
don't
have
a
lot
of
opportunities
to
do
that.
We're
landlocked
26
square
miles,
but
we've
talked
about
a
few
things
in
the
past.
L
So,
for
example,
in
ApS
to
some
of
their
new
schools
like
Discovery
I,
think
it'd
be
great
if
they
had
a
community
open
house,
not
just
for
the
folks
who
participated
in
this,
but
for
everybody
to
come
and
see
it
so
that
it's
not
a
mystery.
What
was
accomplished
there?
Everybody
gets
to
see
that
same
thing
with
big
when
they
put
that
school
and
I
think
there
should
be
a
way
to
maybe
have
one
or
more
open
houses.
So
people
get
a
chance
to
see
what
it
is
we're
doing
with
these.
What.
N
This
has
come
up
with
some
of
the
SPR
CS
I've
been
sitting
through
and
also
it
came
up
with
our
joint
meeting
with
the
Economic
Development
Commission
retail.
It's
something
all
of
you
grappled
with
a
few
years
ago,
came
up
with
some
new
new
new
guidelines,
but
the
retail
environment
is
changing
so
rapidly
under
our
feed.
We
can
see,
for
example,
Clarendon
the
vacancies
are
up.
Then
we
had
quite
a
number
of
restaurants
closed.
Others
have
replaced
them,
but
not
all
there
seems
to
be
more
of
it.
N
More
retail
vacancies
and
more
troubling
to
me
is
a
number
of
our
new
developments
seem
to
be
having
difficulty
in
renting
out
those
ground-floor
retail
spaces.
We
did
give
additional
flexibility
for
what
could
be
done
in
those
ground
floors,
but
it's
not
going
to
traditional
retail
and
even
with
the
flexibility,
there
seems
to
be
more
vacancies
that
I
can
see,
especially
on
these
new
or
newer
ones
for
years.
Of
course,
we've
always
loved
retail
on
the
ground
floor.
So
it's
to
me
classic
mixed-use
animates
the
street.
N
It
was
all
been
good,
but
the
environment
really
is
changing
rapidly
and
I.
Think
it's
going
to
be
something
that,
in
sooner
rather
than
later,
it's
gonna
have
to
yet
again
be
visited
and
come
up
with
new
ideas,
for
how
are
we
going
to
use
these
spaces?
What
do
we
do
with
the
existing
spaces
to
have
them
be
used,
rather
than
be
a
liability,
and
that
again,
that's
something
that
I've
been
seeing
and
it
did
come
up
also
with
economic
development.
So
that's
my
my
thing
to
say
thank.
G
Thank
you
all
I
want
to
partly
echo
something
that's
been
mentioned
a
couple
of
times
with
respect
to
talk
about
colocation,
specifically
talking
about
parking.
One
of
the
things
that
came
up
I'll
just
share
this
as
an
example
that
came
up
in
discussion
with
community
members
about
the
lighting
of
the
fields
at
Discovery
was
the
close
proximity
of
the
two
fields
to
each
other,
preventing
the
installation
of
lighting
structures
between
the
two
fields.
G
My
understanding
from
the
conversations
with
community
members
is
that,
at
one
point
in
time
there
were
three
fields
that
the
three
fields
were
reduced
to
two
fields
and
that
there's
a
parking
lot
where,
where
one
of
the
fields
are
a
similar
nexus
between
parking
and
field
uses,
come
up
in
the
four
mile
run.
Working
group
conversation
where
people
have
talked
about
have
proposed
a
using
turf
for
the
smaller
field
and
then
placing
parking
underneath
it
every
time.
These
conversations
come
up.
G
I
think
the
fleet
school
is
a
great
example
of
what
that
looks
like
when
it's
done
right.
But
what
we
heard
at
the
very
beginning
of
that
process
and
I
was
on
the
initial
TJ
working
group
was:
there
is
not
budgeted
funds
for
for
structured
parking
and
I
frankly
think
that
that
school
would
not
be
possible.
Had
it
not
been
for
that
one
particular
aspect
of
the
compromise
and
we
got
there
and
I
think
we'll
get
there
in
other
cases,
but
I
think
we
can
get
there
a
lot
more
efficiently.
G
If
we
come
to
a
point
where
we
start
thinking
a
little
bit
more
robustly
from
go
about
how
we
might
present
parking
and
and
now
I'm,
looking
back
at
you
because
I
know
that
that
changes,
what
you
present
and
and
what
feedback
you
get
and
how
much
money
you
have
to
think
about,
but
that's
a
direction
I
would
like
to
see
us
move.
It's.
A
A
While
we
had
it
so
I
would
invite
you
to
actually
noodle
on
this.
Some
more.
You
now
have
the
slides.
You
have
contact
with
the
the
plan
commission
on
a
regular
basis.
So
if
there
are
some
consensus
thoughts
that
you
have
about
either
at
least
the
way
I
would
frame
it
either
things
that
you
think
are
definite
sort
of
in.
In
priority
order,
the
add-ons
that
you'd
prioritize-
you
know
you
all
listed
things,
but
how
would
you
noodle
them
in
terms
of
which
is
most
important
and
then
are
there
things
in
the
existing
work
plan?
A
That
you'd,
like
the
board
to
know,
maybe
are
less
important.
You
know
in
terms
of
things
that
you
think
maybe
something
on
your
list
actually
is
more
important,
so
you
got
free
free-form
here
you
know
you
can
make.
These
are
all
recommendations
and
ideas.
So
to
the
degree
you
consolidate
any
among
you
I'm
sure
the
board
would
be
welcome
to
receive
those
at
the
point
you
know
prior
to
their
work
session,
with
the
staff
in
the
in
the
early
part
of
18.
So
we
heard
about
the
community
facilities
study
comp
plan
element.
A
That's
really
a
play
off
of
the
earlier
conversation
today.
The
missing
middle
connected
the
Lehi
way
in
that
planning
process
trees,
something
of
an
ongoing
discussion,
but
clearly
heightened
recently
dog
talking
facilities,
kind
of
a
new
one.
We've
read
about
it
in
your
reports,
but
hadn't
been
really
raised.
I
think
something
like
training
and
education
that
almost
would
probably
be
in
the
work
plan.
It's
just
didn't
show
up.
I
expect
that's
being
done,
but
staff
will
think
that
through
the
Boston
sector
plan,
that's
a
big
one.
A
Sorry
James
I
wonder
how
old
you're
gonna
be,
but
but
the
truth
is
that
that's
a
big
one
and
but
it's
it
deserves
to
be
in
the
parking
lot
right,
let
alone
the
timeline
for
all
of
them.
The
that
we
just
went
through
a
DS
we're
still
working
on
a
DS.
The
definition
of
kitchen
makes
some
sense
to
be
in
that
parking
lot.
So
I'm
sure
staff
will
kind
of
add
these
to
that
parking
lot
that
you
keep
a
couple.
You
know
the
the
fungibility
of
parking
I
think
that's!
A
A
Conserving
an
acquiring
open
space
strikes
me
as
that
sort
of
a
different
part
of
the
organization,
primarily
but
also
flows
into
certain
site
plans
and
and
land-use
decisions,
and
then
the
last
cup
retail,
and
that
I
think
is
a
really
astute
point
too.
You
know
sure
and
celebrating
victories
that
something
is
a
little
bit
like
training.
How
do
we
do
that
in
an
ongoing
way?
So
very
interesting
and
much
appreciated.
A
F
How
far
it
gets
down
in
Richmond
remains
to
be
seen.
I
do
have
a
more
granular
question,
though,
because
we've
talked
a
lot
about
schools
tonight
and
I'm,
just
wondering
in
the
context
of
fleet
elementary
and
now
in
the
context
of
Reese
Reed
school.
We
have
a
joint
PFR,
CBL,
PC
structure
and
I.
Don't
know
whether
mr.
stroller
or
or
a
mr.
gut
Shaw
would
would
care
to
weigh
in
as
to
how
you
think,
that's
working
out
and
and
whether
we
might
need
to
make
any
tweaks
going
forward.
I
think.
M
Mr.
Vyse
said
it
appreciate
the
question
you
know:
I
I
think
there's
always
ways
to
tweak
the
process
and
I
think
one
of
the
ways
that's
been
apparent
to
me.
So
far.
There
were
a
couple
things
that
I
think
could
be
improved.
One
is
there
was
a
lot
of
discussion
amongst
the
chairs
and
staff
about
who
should
comprise
the
Joint
Working
Group,
B
LPC
and
pfr
C.
It's
a
big
group.
M
You've
pretended
some
of
the
meetings,
it's
about
50
people
and
that's
tough-
to
facilitate
some
good
dialogue
with
a
group
that
large
so
I
think
going
forward.
It
might
be
smart
for
the
board
liaison
or
the
board
chairs
to
kind
of
communicate
their
intent
of
the
size
of
the
group
and
what
communities
should
be
represented.
What
other
entities
in
this
instance
the
business
owners
in
Westover,
are
represented,
but
what
other
kind
of
constituencies
need
to
be
at
the
table?
M
M
It
at
the
meeting-
or
they
may
send
it
to
us
an
hour
beforehand,
but
it
doesn't
let
our
staff
weigh
in
so
there
is
a
delay
and
I
know
that
ApS
is
on
a
timeline,
but
miss
Byrd
has
rightly
said
that
staff
needs
to
be
cautious
in
those
instances
because
they
haven't
had
a
full
chance
to
discuss
it
with
other
staff,
but
there
it
doesn't
it's
not
as
collaborative
as
it
should
be,
and
there
may
be
some
things
that
get
missed
in
that
process,
but
I'll
leave
it.
There
I'm
sure,
there's
more.
D
Really
sort
of
a
thank
you
I
think
it's
the
first
time.
We've
done
the
parking
lot
thing.
Well,
you've
come
forward
with
these
two,
maybe
I,
maybe
I.
We
did
it
before
and
I.
Just
didn't.
Focus
just
seemed
incredibly
helpful.
Just
interesting
things
he
came
up
with
trees
have
been
the
theme
for
the
last
several
days.
We've
been
talking
about
trees,
a
lot,
but
the
things
that
you
brought
up
and
also
I
think
the
the
retail
came.
D
Yes,
I
did
I
did
I
did
alphabet
soup
yeah,
yes,
economic
development
anyway.
I
really
appreciate
that
the
retail
action
plan,
even
when
we
did
it
I,
had
some
concerns
that
we're
being
so
specif.
You
know
specific
about
things
and
they're
going
to
change
fast,
so
it
was
nice
to
see
that.
Maybe
that's
something
we
should
be
concerned
about,
maybe
look
back
at
a
little
bit.
Thank
you.
I
did
wait.
